Boost Your Brain Health in Just 30 Days
Could a single capsule a day be the key to maintaining healthy cognitive function? If that capsule contains a breakthrough optimized curcumin extract called Longvida®, new research suggests that it just might be.
According to a recent study performed by Ohio State’s Department of Human Nutrition, this antioxidant-rich active turmeric constituent could have a significant impact on your brain’s health and your body’s inflammatory response. As part of a 30-day, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial, subjects were given either one capsule of Longvida (standardized to 80 mg of optimized curcumin) or a placebo each day. The study subjects were also evaluated for a variety of markers linked to inflammatory response and oxidative stress—most notably, plasma levels of certain proteins, which are linked to declines in cognitive function with age.
Results revealed that a daily dose of this special curcumin supplement led to improvements in plasma levels of particular cognitive-related proteins at the end of the 30-day trial period.1 While the effect seen wasn’t especially large, it was statistically significant—and it was also very important, according to the lead researchers, considering the relatively low dosage used and the short time frame of the study.
The study authors noted that the limited bioavailability of many curcumin products—that is, how much of this powerful substance your body is actually able to use to its benefit—has always posed issues when it comes to practical applications. That such a low dose of Longvida was able to deliver noticeable positive effects suggests that this particular curcumin extract makes an easier job of getting its active ingredient into the blood stream… and that means more reliable natural protection for you and your brain.
You’ll find Longvida—alongside vitamin D3, niacin, green tea extract, and serrapeptase—as the featured ingredient in the daily brain-boosting formula MemoRx™, available from Complementary Prescriptions®.
