• L-Carnitine (C₇H₁₅NO₃)
  ALCAR is an acetylated form of the amino acid L-Carnitine. When cAMP is increased in neurons by forskolin, studies have shown that levels of acetylcholinesterase are also increased and help to mitigate the effects of increased acetylcholinesterase on short-term memory and energy.

• DHA Powder (docosahexaenoic Acid)
  • DHA (C₂₂H₃₂O₂)
    Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) enriched in phospholipids in the brain and retina, is known to play multi-functional roles in brain health and diseases. The inclusion of plentiful DHA in the diet improves learning ability, whereas deficiencies of DHA are associated with deficits in learning. DHA is taken up by the brain in preference to other fatty acids.
