Natural Biology Brain Health Research


Brain health—from memory to focus to mood—is one of the most promising growth categories in nutrition.  Natural Biology offers Brain Rocket which provide key nutrients for brain health but equally stimulates oxygen flow with the miracle micro-nutrient vinpocetine.   
“The category is beginning to skyrocket,” Daniel Amen, MD, a psychiatrist and author of Use Your Brain to Change Your Age (Crown Archetype, 2012) and other books about brain health.  "Did you know 11,000 turn 60 everyday and one of the biggest fears is Alzheimer’s disease, but no treatment that really works" according to Dr. Amen.  
The Alzheimer’s Association reports that 5.4 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease, which is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. By 2050, the number of Americans with Alzheimer’s is expected to hit 16 million and cost the country $1.1 trillion. A recent Harvard University survey found that adults fear Alzheimer’s more than heart disease, stroke or diabetes—only cancer is feared more. The anxiety is justified: Deaths from Alzheimer’s jumped 66 percent between 2005 and 2008 while deaths from other major diseases decreased.
Equally important, mood and sleep health are other important elements of the brain health category. More than 11 percent of Americans over age 12 take antidepressant medications, and almost 20 percent of U.S. consumers suffer serious anxiety-spectrum disorders.

 

Cognitive Health Micro-Nutrients / Ingredients

Well-established research underlies the brain function supportive effects of folic acid combined with vitamin B12, magnesium (including Magtein which is an ingredient Natural Biology is research and will release soon in a new product but the difference is this product will be based on the research and not the hype), omega-3s DHA and EPA (Norwegian Omega 3 and Arctic Ocean Krill Oil) and other healthy fats, citicoline (including Cognizin) and acetylcholine enhancers—such as DMAE, vinpocetine (Brain Rocket) and phosphatidylserine.

Dr. Oz on Cognitive Health

  The Dr. Oz Show fueled significant consumer interest in specific weight loss ingredients, such as green coffee bean extract, 7-Keto, African mango and raspberry ketones. Given the growing need for natural solutions to support cognitive health, mood and sleep, Dr. Oz has been stepping up his focus on brain health as well. In May, for example, his show featured a five-step Alzheimer’s prevention plan, which included this supplement advice: “If you’re only going to take one supplement, DHA is the one you need.”
Natural Biology will continue to lead the way with new cognitive health products but equally important EVEREST Earth and Sea Formula and the EVEREST Protocol already provide a strong foundation for cognitive health and is one every adult should evaluate.
