GoodVibes Lab Brain Boost* is a dietary supplement to support healthy neurological functions and memory.* This innovative formula includes ingredients that serve as the best nutrients and botanicals to support healthy neurological function and memory.* The formula provides broad support through various mechanisms of action, including those of novel ingredients, such as Chocamine® and Sharp-PS®, which have neurologically centered data to support their safety and efficacy.*
About the ingredients:
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a fatty acid that affects the neurotransmitters
that affect memory, is a component of the cell’s membrane, and is a
major phospholipid in the brain and nervous system. It supports nerve
cells, releases neurotransmitters (acetylcholine and dopamine) in the
brain to support cognition and memory.* PS has a positive impact on
behavior and is needed for proper metabolism of fatty acids and to
maintain a healthy immune system.* Sharp-PS® Green Phosphatidylserine in Brain Boost* supports various aspects of metabolism and support acetylcholine production and neuronal health.*
Chocamine®
To support neurotransmitter balance, Brain Boost* includes
theobromine-containing Chocamine®. Theobromine supports normal
regulation of dopamine and glutamate neurotransmitters.*
In Brain Boost*, Chocamine®, a branded cocoa extract, acts to support
focus and reaction time.* A 2009 clinical study of 40 volunteers taking
Chocamine® found significant improvement in tests assessing short-
term memory and visual-motor response speed (up to 39% when
assessed using IMPACTTM Cognitive Assessment) (“RFI – Chocamine®
clinical studies,” n.d.).
Bacopa
We’ve also included Bacopa to support the normal cleansing of the
nervous system, through its constituents bacosides A and B, which
support protein synthesis and subsequently normal nerve signal
transmission.* Bacosides support the health of neurons by balancing
kinase activity, neuronal synthesis, and synaptic activity.*
Curcumin and Acetyl-L-Carnitine
In certain brain areas, neurons can multiply and increase in number.
The growth hormone known as Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor,
or BDNF, is a main component of that process. Decreased levels of
BDNF have been linked to common brain disorders, like depression
and Alzheimer’s (Hall, O’Bryant, Johnson, & Barber, 2011). Both
Curcumin and Acetyl-L-Carnitine support normal levels of BDNF in
the brain.* Each of these nutrients also has other, similarly important
supportive functions that address multiple aspects of brain health.*
