CHOLINE ALFOSCERATE: INCREASES THE AVAILABILITY OF NEUROTRANSMITTERS
The brain undergoes various structural and biochemical functional changes depending on age. From a morphological point of view, as the brain ages, a decrease in the number of nerve cells, a decrease in the network of fibers, as well as the number of synaptic contacts between neurons was found in some areas of the brain (Amenta et al., 1991). Choline alfoscerate (alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine, alpha-GFH) is a natural compound, a precursor of brain phospholipids (Abbiati et al., 1990), stimulates neurotransmission, and increasing the availability of choline and acetylcholine improves cholinergic synapses. Numerous studies demonstrate the protective effect of choline alfoscerate against degenerative processes in neurons. Choline alfoscerate was observed to release neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a protein with neuromodulatory activity capable of stimulating the survival and differentiation of certain types of neurons and synapses, particularly in the hippocampus, cortex, and basal regions of the brain. These areas are vital for learning, memory and thinking development.

PROANTHOCYANIDINS FROM RED GRAPES: ANTIOXIDANT TO PROTECT NERVE CELLS
The universal antioxidant owes its properties to a very high content of a group of substances belonging to the flavonoid family. Proanthocyanidins from red grape seeds protect cell membranes of nervous tissue from damage by free radicals, maintaining their high efficiency.

PHOSPHATIDYLSERINE: PROTECTS THE MYELIN SHEET AND IMPROVES THE CONDUCTION OF NERVE IMPULSES
The main substance in the composition of biological membranes, especially protective shells to protect the electrical signal and prevent its dispersion. A study conducted on a group of volunteers showed that during the use of phosphatidylserine at a dose of 200 mg/day, an improvement in cognitive abilities (Stroop test and d2 attention test), reflexes and instinctive response was noted, especially during psychophysical stress.

BACOPA MONIET: PROMOTES IMPROVEMENT OF COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS AND MEMORY
A plant that is traditionally used to support brain function, improve memory and speed of thinking reactions. Recent studies have shown an increase in the antioxidant levels of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase in the prefrontal cortex, striatum, and hippocampus after administration of Monier's bacopa phytocomplex. This finding suggests that Monier's bacopa may have a positive effect on cognitive processes, such as information storage and processing, that occur in these areas of the brain.
