What are the benefits of brain supplements?
If you’re looking for ways to support brain health, you can exercise, adjust your diet, sleep better, engage in social activities, and play games designed to stimulate your brain. These are all excellent ideas and should be a part of a brain health regimen. However, brain health supplements can also provide support. Below we’ll explore Neuriva’s brain supplements and the ingredients they contain.
Backed with clinically-studied ingredients NeuroFactor™ and phosphatidylserine, Neuriva brain supplements help support focus, memory, concentration, learning, and accuracy in healthy people.*
NeuroFactor
Phosphatidylserine
Helps support memory and learning*
NeuroFactor™
What is NeuroFactor™?
One of the key ingredients in Neuriva is NeuroFactor™, a botanical coffee fruit extract. Sourced from the skin and rind of the coffee cherry, coffee fruit extract is naturally decaffeinated and rich in nutrients to support your overall health.*
NeuroFactor™ contains polyphenols, substances that have been shown to support the production of brain-derived neurotrophic factor or BDNF. 1
How Does NeuroFactor™ Support BDNF?
NeuroFactor™ helps support increased levels of BDNF, a protein important to brain health. In clinical studies, the coffee fruit extract was shown to increase BDNF levels in just 90 minutes!*2
BDNF supports many key functions essential for cognitive health. BDNF is responsible for maintaining healthy brain cells, supporting neuron growth, and helping form new connections in the brain.*4
Since these areas are tied to memory and cognition, BDNF is critical for supporting learning, problem-solving, and focus.* 4
The Phospholipid Phosphatidylserine
What is a phospholipid?
Lipids are found in every cell and are essential throughout the body. Phospholipids are an important component in all of our cells, making up the membrane. This lipid is concentrated in your brain’s nerve cells and helps support healthy cell membranes and neurotransmitters. The brain is rich in one phospholipid in particular: phosphatidylserine.5
How can Phosphatidylserine Support Learning?
Research suggests that phosphatidylserine supports communication between nerve cells and the brain, which is connected to memory and learning.3
Neuriva contains phosphatidylserine, a soy-derived phospholipid, that supports cognitive function in healthy people.
