Getting old is something we cannot evade, but we can always circumvent memory loss and promote healthy aging. Support healthy aging by taking supplements that will help protect the brain from diseases like Alzheimer’s, aging brain and cognitive decline and other dementia. Natural supplements are the best for better health both for the brain and muscles. Below are some of the supplements one can use to boost the brain health and focus, courtesy of Avky Inc.

Acetyl L – Carnitine

Acetyl L – Carnitine is a nutrient of great aid to the brain as it helps in tolerating stress and increasing the rate of metabolism mostly when it comes to fat metabolism. It is highly soluble, and it protects the brain from stress. Acetyl L – Carnitine helps the brain cell in producing average energy level, and this boosts their health. It helps in improving memory and deletes confusion. Acetyl L – Carnitine is a great supplement when it comes to aging problems through the production of energy. It is an essential nutrient when it comes to cognitive problems, stress, depression, and headache. Avky Inc uses Acetyl L – Carnitine in several of its products, and it is present in multiple items in Avky Inc’s current product lineup.

Acetyl L-Carnitine helps in cognition problems. Perception involves thinking skills and memory. Cognitive decline is the problem of impaired thinking and memory loss. Acetyl L – Carnitine does so by preventing the toxin from entering the brain cell. With this, the brain maintains energy production, and this helps in keeping your moods thus preventing brain tear and wear that causes cognitive decline. It also helps in nerve transmission in the brain.

ALC also promotes brain anti-aging. The root cause of aging is inflammation and oxidative damage in the brain. ACL reverses the process and also stops the progress. In return, fewer broken nerve transmissions occur, and this prevents brain aging. ALC helps in fat metabolisms so that no extra cholesterol will clog the brain system. It is a cleanup process that ensures that cholesterol does not form a beta-amyloid plaque. ALC also cleanses the fatty particles caused by excess alcohol intake.

ALC’s Role in Stress Management

ALC helps in energy and stress management. It contributes to preserving mitochondria which are cells responsible for energy production. Energy production enhances metabolism which is an anti-aging function of ALC. ALC increases the production of serotonin and dopamine which enhances brain plasticity and functionality to change patterns. Maintaining energy supply helps the brain to cope with stress more effectively. The pressure helps to buff oxidative stress, and with this, the nerves can tolerate higher stress levels. It also prevents injury even for the people suffering from stress. ALC has also Proven to reduce depression due to energy changes in the frontal brain. ALC is also useful to people who have diabetes and low oxygen levels as it helps to improve circulation.

By helping the brain to tolerate stress, it enhances one’s focus. Preventive cognition decline and aging improve the brain’s health. ALC affects the brain by:

• Protecting toxin from interfering with neurons
• Improving the functions and the health of neuron receptors
• Increasing production of energy by the cellular
• Maintaining the functions and health of the mitochondrial
• Balancing the makeup of chemicals to manage mood and stress responding hormones

Ginkgo Biloba

Ginkgo Biloba is a supplement that comes from a unique tree in China. The tree is said to have no relatives, and its leaves are very helpful in the human body. It contains two products, flavonoids, and terpenoids. These constituents have adamant properties of antioxidant that prevent cells from oxidation. This property helps in preventing age-related brain disease by combating stress caused by oxidation which gets worse as a person ages.

It contributes to increasing concentration and reversing cognitive decline. It is also useful in reducing confusion, low concentration, mood changes, fatigue and poor body performance. Being an anti-inflammatory, it increases antioxidant activities and reduces oxidation stress and increases circulation. These are all important factors in reducing cognitive decline. It also improves the memory and prevents the young and the old from any age-related memory loss. It enhances the brain by;

• Increasing the level of being attentive
• Increasing the memorizing speed
• Boost quality of memories
• Reducing age based memory loss

Ginkgo Biloba helps in stress management. It reduces stress by increasing the brain’s ability to handle stress and counteracting with the high level of stress hormones like adrenaline. While Avky Inc doesn’t have any products with Ginkgo Biloba in its product lineup, Avky Inc are strong proponents of Ginkgo Biloba as a natural memory enhancement product.

Dimethylethanolamine

Dimethylethanolamine, also known as DMAE is a supplement that helps in maintaining the brain’s function by supporting cognitive efficiency and helps patients suffering from neuropsychological deficits and also those with aging problems. It is an antioxidant that prevents neurons and other brain cells from oxidation. The lack of oxidation then increases the level of circulation in the brain.

It works by increasing the level of acetylcholine which is an essential transmitter that helps in supporting the communication of neuron in the brain and the whole nervous system. Dimethylethanolamine is in fish foods which are known to be good in brain stimulation. DMAE works by helping in changing choline in your brain to acetylcholine which is an important neurotransmitter that carries messages neurons and enhances communication between the brain and all the other muscles in the body.

Acetylcholine helps in brain functions like recalling things, learning new things, and memory. DMAE is preferred because it removes the barriers that prevent blood from reaching the brain more efficiently than choline. It is cholinergic since it increases the level of acetylcholine. DMAE is more efficient and safer for treating young children with brain related problems. DMAE helps adults to increase their stamina, and mental sharpness and improves their ability to concentrate and increases their memory quality. Also, it improves their level of focus and mental clarity. These benefits together with an improved quality of sleep are crucial in stress management.

DMAE helps in improving thinking and memory skills to the elderly. It also helps in improving energy production and level of focus. DMAE contributes to developing mental energy and reduces depression symptoms and boost moods. It is reported to increase the level of focusing ability, better reasoning, mood elevation and improved memory. It also heightens intelligence and increases energy. Many people use it as it is safe and very mild. It reduces fatigue and helps one to get better sleep.

L – Theanine

L-Theanine is an amino acid found in green tea and mushroom. It is a supplement that crosses the brain-blood barrier very fast. When taken as a supplement it can help in rejuvenating and relaxing someone, improve the ability to think, boost the level of focus and improve the mood. It balances the brain cells and increases cognitive health. Balance is achieved by:

• Theanine stimulates the brain waves to enhance relaxation and relief the person from trauma
• L-Theanine properly increases the level of neurotransmitters in the brain which improves cognition and the memory quality and also produces a calming effect.
• Theanine inhibits the release of glutamate, and this protects the brain from glutamate toxins and overstimulation.

The mechanism of action of Theanine is not fully learned, but it is known for its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. It acts very fast, and it is highly absorbed in the bloodstream. It stimulates neurotransmitters like Dopamine, Serotonin, Norepinephrine and GABA. These chemicals are responsible for cognitive processes, pleasure, sleep, relaxation cycle, and the brain’s reward system.

Theanine is capable of protecting the brain from damage and helping in better maintenance of the brain cells. Blocking over-stimulation of the cells and preventing them from a lowered supply of oxygen helps prevent neurons from getting damaged. This supplement can cause the release of proteins needed for nerve growth, and due to the dopamine produced, it could even be used to treat Parkinson’s disease.

Piracetam and Choline

Piracetam and Choline are two one of the most known and used by many people. This supplement is also known as Nootropyl or Lucetem. It is responsible for improving the working conditions of receptors and transmitters. Initially prescribed for patients who had Alzheimer’s and depression, now Piracetam is used by healthy people who only want to boost the function of acetylcholine which happens to be a neurotransmitter. Neurotransmitters enhance communication in neurons and between the brain and other cells. Piracetam increases mental clarity, boost brain functioning and improves spatial memory. It works by:

• Choline can help to increase cognitive functions. It is recommended for people with cognitive decline.
• Piracetam helps people suffering from mental fatigue which helps them to focus
• It contributes to improving reasoning skills
• Contributes to support and improve the memory quality

Choline is used together with Piracetam. It is a nutrient that is highly soluble in water. Choline is used to prevent headaches, but it could too cause headaches if taken in the wrong dosage. Choline increases the amount of neurotransmitters which are norepinephrine, dopamine, and acetylcholine in the brain and also increases the number of receptors. It is responsible for preserving cell membrane phospholipids, and this is liable for its effects on neuron protection. Choline causes the production of glutathione which is an antioxidant. The antioxidant prevents cells oxidation, and it is meant to reduce their damage. Choline also helps to reduce excess production of glutamate and fatty acids that could cause brain injury. Choline and Piracetam are essential for the brain as they increase clarity, improve cognitive functions, and improve memory; sensory perception is also highly improved.

Rhodiola Rosea

Rhodiola is a herb known for reducing fatigue, stress, and depression. It is said to have the capability to strengthen the nervous system and enhance memory. It also increases energy level and help in reducing weight as well as increase exercise capacity.

Rhodiola Rosea is known to posses Adaptogen. Adaptogen increases the body resistance and improves the body functioning. When one is stressed, after consuming Adaptogen, it increases adaptation, and the body can handle more stress in a resourceful way. Adaptogen helps the body cells to manufacture more energy and use it more efficiently. Rhodiola affects the central monoamine level, and it could also provide the adaptogen benefits to a patient. This helps improve depression, seasonal stress, chronic fatigue, and fibromyalgia. The plant can be used to improve low body functioning, lack of sleep, lack of appetite, headaches, hypertension and fatigue.

Rhodiola stimulates the transportation of serotonin, 5-hydroxytryptophan, and tryptophan in the brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter. Neurotransmitters are involved in sending messages between cells. Serotonin is responsible for temperature regulation, pain perception, controlling appetite, respiration, blood pressure and moods. When it is balanced, it enhances mental ease and relaxation. Too much serotonin can cause depression. Rhodiola comes to the rescue where with other chemicals; it neutralizes the excess serotonin which in turn brings down depression.

It works by stimulating the AMPK enzymes. With these enzymes, the body has a higher number of mitochondria. Mitochondria are cells responsible for energy production. High level of these cells will increase the level of fat burning hence there will be a high glucose intake in the cells. The glucose will increase metabolic activities hence more energy production. Rhodiola has the capability to slow down metabolization of the neurotransmitters, serotonin, and dopamine.

Huperzine A

This is a supplement that originates from a Chinese plant known as club moss. It is also known as cerebral. The supplement is known to possess nootropic benefits and improving memory. Its primary function is treating neurological problems which include Alzheimer’s disease. It also heals memory losses and challenges arising from learning. These benefits are stimulated by the fact that Huperzine increases the level of acetylcholine in the brain. This improves the ability to process data, mental clarity, improved concentration and information retention.

Nerves are usually destroyed by nerve gasses. Huperzine A helps to protect the nerves against the nerve gasses. It can also be used in treating myasthenia gravis, a muscle disorder. Huperzine enhances memory storage and retrieval. By improving the acetylcholine in the brain, it enhances communication between neurons since it is a transmitter. It is known for sending a signal related to memory encoding. It also prevents cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s disorders, and senile dementia.

Dark chocolate

Dark chocolate helps to relieve stress by making one feel good through the production of endorphins which are chemicals also known as feel-good. Endorphins combine with opiate receptors making one feel relaxed and stress-free. Chocolate has tryptophan which is an amino acid and serotonin which is a neurotransmitter of positive mood and excitement. Chocolate also improves blood floor in the brain. It contains flavonoids that improve blood flow to the brain both in the young and the old. Blood flow boosts the working memory speed by about 30%. It also helps in short term memory and prevent mental decline.

Dark chocolate also prevents brain damage. The brain requires a lot of oxygen for it to function effectively. This oxygen protects the brain from unattached oxygen molecules that attack the cells just as oxygen attacks metals causing them to rust. Chocolate contains antioxidants that protect the brain cells from damage by neutralizing the free oxygen molecules and prevent the brain cells from aging.

Chocolate increases memory level, focus, and learning. Flavonoids from cocoa penetrate to the brain and surround the brain region that is responsible for memory and learning activities. The flavonoids also improve cognitive activities.

Dark Chocolate and Stress Reduction

Dark chocolate helps to reduce stress. This is achieved through the magnesium mineral present in dark chocolate which suppresses the release of cortisol. Cortisol is the hormone responsible for stress. Magnesium also helps to improve memory, mood, sleep and focus. Chocolate can also help to control cravings. Craving is a desire that originates from the brain. It also helps in brain disorders’ treatment like dementia and stroke. This is with the help of antioxidants. It also decreases insulin resistance which causes Alzheimer’s brain diabetes because insulin resistance prevents glucose from reaching the brain cells causing them to die.

It protects the helpful intestinal bacteria to the brain. Lactobacilli and bifidobacteria are examples of the beneficial bacteria’s. These bacteria act as antioxidants that prevent the brain from damage.

Bacopa Monnieri

Bacopa Monnieri contains bacosides. The bacosides regulates serotonin and dopamine which are responsible for mood regulation. Serotonin is also responsible for peace while dopamine helps in mental motivation.

Bacopa monnieri works in association with GABA receptors which are associated with stress .bacopa monnieri is known as adaptogen since it can block stress signals hence stopping stress from triggering responses to the rest of the body. It also stimulates the production of the kinase, which enhances communication between nerves.

Speed of GAMA for Communication

GABA speeds up the process of communication and higher cognition clarity. It also reduces anxiety and depression. Just as it reduces stress, it can also reduce depression. Positive benefits are attributed to acetylcholine and neurotransmitters, serotonin and GABA.

Bacopa enhances memory improvement by improving the order in which the cognitive processes take place. It can also treat Alzheimer’s and dementia disorders. Alzheimer is a brain disorder that is caused by low glucose intake in the brain cell. Bacopa is also known as brain diabetes. It causes memory loss and early mortality. It also has effects that might protect the brain from aging or dementia .research has shown that old people with memory complaints get better after taking Bacopa supplement.

Creatine

Creatine is a naturally occurring organic acid present in animals. It boots the muscle’s power by supplying energy to all the cells in the body. Creatine also improves memory and attention span. It plays a crucial role in brain energy supply and homeostasis and acts as a buffer for Mitochondrial and Cytosolic energy pools.

Omega-3 fatty acids

These are found in fish oil, and one can consume it by taking fish oil pills, beans, flaxseed, walnuts and grass-fed livestock. It is a staple food for the brain, and now people use it as a dietary supplement to reduce age-related memory problems and cognitive decline which includes neurodegenerative diseases. It also enhances improved ability to focus and moods. This supplement can also be taken by healthy adults.

It boosts the brain health by;

• Helps to rebuild neuron damages. It does this through the neurotransmitters.
• It activates genes that cope with brain damage while turning down those that enhances brain inflammation.
• Protects cells from death.

Fatty acids reduce aggression, depression, bipolar disorder, memory loss, improve accuracy, and reduce stress as well as improve cognition in the elderly.

Phosphatidylserine

This is a supplement said to increase communication between brain cells and restore the neurotransmitters vital for cognitive functions and memory. This is because other than keeping the cells together; it helps in the movements of nutrients in cells and pumping of waste products. This product, however, has not proven to be effective when it comes to brain diabetes unless taken at the first stage of the disease.

The above products and much more will help in reducing stress, living a depression free life and sleep without any problems. They are also safe for children as it boosts their learning abilities.
