Clinical research shows that certain patent-pending botanical compounds can target the brain to support mental focus, working memory, attention, recall and recognition. It is exciting to see that this research demonstrates HOW this is possible. We now know that specific botanical ingredients may significantly promote Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factors (BDNF) levels in the brain. BDNF is part of the neurotrophin family of growth factors in the forebrain and cortex – areas that are vital to learning, memory and higher thinking. By promoting BDNF levels, key cognitive functions are supported, specifically the ability to manage information, the ability to learn, focus and react appropriately to the environment.

Brain Prodigy™ contains a new class of quantum- state, full spectrum botanical ingredients combined together in one formula to provide outstanding cognitive benefits. Our first botanical, patented ingredient, Neumentix ™, is a clinically researched, all-natural spearmint leaf, coupled with NeuroFactor™, an extract of whole fruit from the Coffea arabica plant. Please notice that it contains the “whole fruit” (not coffee bean) of the Coffea plant – which offers a wealth of heretofore undiscovered botanical benefits. This double masterpiece is then placed in a foundation of naturally fermented Choline L-Bitartrate (not the synthetic DL-tartaric acid form) and also Organic Rosemary Leaf (mentioned in ancient times to be associated with “remembrance”). Never before have we had such an impressive collaboration of top-performance, botanical super-stars assembled together into one supplement … without any added, “junk” undesirable excipients.

Polyphenols from Spearmint Can Improve Cognitive Performance

Spearmint naturally contains four polyphenols as seen below:

The polyphenolic compounds identified in Neumentix™ have been clinically studied to determine how they can promote cognitive performance. Exciting research reveals that these polyphenol agents are able to improve cognitive performance in people through at least four mechanisms of action:

Research shows that a unique benefit of Neumentix™ is that it may improve working memory. The term, working memory, is defined as a part of short-term memory which stores and manipulates information while a person is involved in working on another task. It is known that working memory is controlled by key brain areas such as the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus.

Working memory is considered to be a critical cognitive function because of its ability to support cognitive abilities including concentration, focus and sustained attention. Working memory may also support physical performance, such as reaction time and movement. Thus, improvements in working memory may likely help a person to improve productivity as well as managing their workloads.

In Brain Prodigy™, the patented ingredient NeuroFactor™, is a high-value, all-natural extract of the whole fruit from the Coffea arabica plant. In clinical studies, this extract contains a unique profile of polyphenols which have been shown to stimulate the production of BDNF or Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor. This is a key neuroprotein that is involved in the overall health of the brain.

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor of BDNF has been determined to play an important role in many brain-associated functions, including the development of neurons, and the maintenance, repair, and protection against nerve degeneration. Neuroscience research now indicates that by increasing BDNF levels, it may help lessen cognitive challenges in people. That’s why it is an exciting finding to learn that NeuroFactor™, a novel, natural botanical, has been shown to significantly increase serum BDNF levels in two clinical studies.

In addition to taking Brain Prodigy, what other factors help increase BDNF Naturally?
