Super Food for the Brain!

From Real Age:

By Mehmet C. Oz, MD, and Michael F. Roizen, MD
Blueberries improve memory & learning, and delay age-related cognitive decline like that seen with Alzheimer's disease & Parkinson's disease.
Complete Brain Nutrition!

Omnitrition's Remind® is Complete Brain Nutrition....
You Won't Soon Forget!

Omnitrition's Remind® is formulated to provide a healthy amount of Choline to support optimal memory. Choline and the rest of Remind's® ingredients, including vitamins & minerals, is what the brain uses to make the primary neurotransmitter, acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is involved with verbal function, the ability to write, read & verbal memory. A good example of what happens when the cholinergic system in the brain fails is what you see in Alzheimer's disease. It, also, has pyroglutamic acid to support memory & communication between both lobes of the brain and DMAE, which helps maintain mental focus & clarity of thought.
 
Blueberries are a super food for your brain. They're high in vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants called flavonoids or polyphenols. Flavonoids interact with proteins & enzymes, in your brain, that keep your brain younger. Scientists don't know exactly how all those elements play together, but blueberry flavonoids do seem to keep you smarter. People who eat a high-flavonoid diet stay sharper than folks with low-flavonoid diets. In fact, drinking blueberry juice daily can improve your memory function by 30%.
 
Omnitrition's Stress Buster!

PhytoNutrients®: Omnitrition's® Stress Buster

Also known as secondary plant metabolites, polyphenols are natural components of a wide variety of plants. Foods rich in polyphenols include: onions, apples, tea, red wine, red grapes, grape juice, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, cranberries, & some nuts. Polyphenols are subclassified in nonflavonoids & flavonoids. Flavonoids have been linked to a lower risk of heart disease in some studies.

One of the most important groups of phytochemicals are the phytosterols. These are plant based sterols that act to modulate the human endocrine system. One of the most important sterols is DHEA. Scientific research has found that adequate DHEA in the body can slow the aging process, as well as, prevent, improve, & often reverse conditions like cancer, heart disease, memory loss, obesity, & osteoporosis.
