Ortho Molecular Products - Membrin - 30 Capsules
Membrin, a natural supplement, combines some of the best and most effective plant extracts and natural ingredients (such as Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract, Vinpocetin and Huperzine) clinically proven to promote nerve conductivity, increase cerebral blood flow, protect neurotransmitters, improve overall memory and brain function. Membrin is intended to support those with cognitive related issues. Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract By far the most clinically proven plant extract for supporting cerebral function, Ginkgo has been shown to increase blood flow to the brain, promote nerve conductivity and improve memory in elderly individuals. The 120 mg dose matches many of the positive clinical trials. Vinpocetin Widely considered to be neuroprotective, vinpocetin has been shown to increase both cerebral blood flow and brain glucose uptake in animal experiments. As a neuroprotective agent, vinpocetin helps maintain circulatory and neurological strength in the brain. Further, the ability of vinpocetin to inhibit phosphodiesterase is likely to play a relevant role in long term memory enhancement. An alkaloid derivative of vincamine, which in turn is extracted from the periwinkle plant (Vinca minor), Ortho Molecular has chosen a comparatively significant dose in keeping with many of the clinical trials. Huperzine Huperzine is a nutraceutical extracted from Chinese club moss (Huperzia serrata) that works as a potent, selective and long-term protector of the naturally occurring neurotransmitter, acetylcholine (ACh). Most clinical research has studied doses of 100 mcg per day, which we have included in Membrin.
