Neuro Optimizer
Neuro Optimizer is a nutritional (dietary) supplement which comprises a number of different compounds that have several beneficial effects on the brain including: enhancing the brain metabolism, providing powerful antioxidant protection to brain tissues and preventing cognitive decline.
Producer: Jarrow Formulas
Neuro Optimizer offers support for the brain neurotransmitters as well as the right nutrient levels in order to maintain a healthy brain metabolism.
This product is aimed at people who wish to improve their overall brain performance, particularly mental clarity and cognitive function and it is also effective in cases of mental fatigue, reducing anxiety, managing stress and pressure, sleep problems, information retention and recall, neurodegenerative disorders (such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer's disease, Lou Gehrig's Disease), diabetic neuropathy, mood disorders (depression), early symptoms of cognitive impairment, strokes.
-provides powerful antioxidant protection to brain tissues
-maintains in balance the sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium levels
-improves cerebral glucose utilization and energy production
-improves brain function in cases of hypoxia (state of oxygen deficiency), encephalitis, hepatic encephalopathy, autism, Down syndrome, multiple sclerosis, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Lou Gehrig's Disease, facial paralysis, dementia, ataxia (lack of voluntary coordination of muscle movements)
-promotes the proper regulation of cell membrane excitability and cellular osmolarity (the concentration of ions inside brain cells)
-stimulates the memory, improves retention and increases concentration
-improves cerebral blood flow and reduces edema
-reduces palpitations, muscle spasms, fibromyalgia events
-improves hearing, spatial and temporal orientation and vision in glaucoma patients
-relieves symptoms of diabetic neuropathy and side effects of antiretroviral therapy for HIV infection, reduces heart palpitations, muscle spasms, fibromyalgia symptoms
-enhances the synthesis of acetylcholine and other neurotransmitters
-provides the right nutrient levels in order to maintain a healthy brain metabolism
The quality of mental and emotional functioning relies on the neurotransmitters which carry the signals between nerve cells. The most important neurotransmitters are serotonin, dopamine, acetylcoline and norepinephrine. In order to stabilize the brain's level of neurotransmitters, both drugs and nutrients are effective, but boosting the naturally is preferable, since it has minimal side effects and Neuro Optimizer's blend of amino-acids and other nutrients supports the health of the brain while avoiding this negative side effects.
CDP Choline (cytidine 5’-diphosphocholine) activates the biosynthesis of structural phospholipids in the neuronal membranes, increases cerebral metabolism and acts on the levels of various neurotransmitters. Thus, it has been experimentally proven that CDP-choline increases noradrenaline and dopamine levels in the central nervous system. In the treatment of patients with acute cerebral vascular disease of the ischemic type, CDP-choline accelerated the recovery of consciousness and motor deficit, attaining a better final result and facilitating the rehabilitation of these patients. The other important use for CDP-choline is in the treatment of senile cognitive impairment, which is secondary to degenerative diseases (e.g. Alzheimer's disease) and to chronic cerebral vascular disease. In patients with chronic cerebral ischemia, CDP-choline improves scores on cognitive evaluation scales, while in patients with senile dementia of the Alzheimer's type, it slows the disease's evolution.
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a member of a class of chemical compounds known as phospholipids. PS is an essential component in all our cells; specifically, it is a major component of the cell membrane. Some of the benefits that PS provides are: it activates cell-to-cell communication, it stabilizes the inner environment of the cell, it helps to regulate cell growth, it improves the functioning of the special receptors found on cells, and it prepares cells for activity. Good evidence suggests that PS is an effective treatment for Alzheimer's disease and other forms of age-related mental decline and it can also help in cases of depression (it stimulates the synthesis and release of dopamine).
Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALC) is the acetylated form of L-carnitine and is involved in many metabolic functions. As an antioxidant, ALC can protect brain neurons from the damage caused by superoxide radicals. Research shows that ALC increases the natural production of both serotonin and dopamine and provides improved tolerance to stress. Also, it is now known that ALC levels decline with age. ALC has been shown to reduce the accumulation of damaged fats in the brain and on the skin (brown spots).
L-Glutamine is used as an energy source by the brain and is converted into glutamic acid, essential for cerebral function, and GABA, an important neurotransmitter. It stimulates mental alertness, improves intelligence, normalizes physical equilibrium, detoxifies ammonia from the brain, improves and soothes erratic behavior in elderly patients, improves the ability to learn, aids in retaining and recall in memory, helps with behavioral problems and autism in children, stops sugar and alcohol cravings, may improve IQ in mentally- deficient children, enhances peptic ulcer healing, and may be used to treat schizophrenia and senility.
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a powerful antioxidant that helps cells convert glucose to energy, detoxifies the body, fights inflammation in the skin, and helps stabilize blood sugar. What makes Alpha Lipoic Acid unique is that it is both water- and fat-soluble. and thus can penetrate tissues composed mainly of fat, such as the nervous system, as well as those made mainly of water, such as the heart, to protect them from free-radical damage. Alpha-lipoic acid also helps the body use other antioxidants, such as vitamin E, vitamin C, and glutathione, more efficiently, and helps B vitamins convert proteins, carbohydrates, and fats into energy more efficiently.
Taurine serves as an antioxidant and has numerous diverse biological functions, such as: regulating cell growth, improving neuro-transmission, stabilizing cell membranes, acting as a minor insulin mimic, promoting serotonin and melatonin production.
All of these nutrients combined in Neuro Optimizer, are the answer to augmenting brain functions and preventing the causes of mental decline. Neuro Optimizer feeds and protects the brain with its comprehensive combination of safe and effective nutrients.
