The Incredible Benefits of Nitric Oxide

We knew about the health benefits of nitric oxide long before scientists were aware of its presence in the human body. Nitroglycerin, a drug that works on nitric oxide pathways, was adopted as a medical therapy for angina and high blood pressure in the 1880s, but another century passed before anyone had any idea of why it worked.

The discovery of nitric oxide and its biological activities was so significant that the 1998 Nobel Prize was awarded to the three pharmacologists who identified and furthered our understanding of this incredibly important molecule affecting every area of our health. Let's take a look at the multiple roles and benefits of nitric oxide and how you can increase its production to improve numerous aspects of your health.

What is Cereboost™ American Ginseng?

Cereboost™ is a patent pending extract made from American Ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.), chosen for its specific levels of certain beneficial compounds and clinically proven activity on brain function, including working memory and alertness *43. Cereboost™ went through an extensive gold standard randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study that demonstrated a significant positive impact on cognitive performance in healthy individuals. The study was validated by the COMPASS(Computerised Mental Performance Assessment System) battery test, conducted at the NICM Centre for the Study of Natural Medicines and Neurocognition, Brain Sciences Institute in Melbourne, Australia.

Cereboost™ has demonstrated significant and positive impacts on major cognitive domains:

  • Attention
  • Working memory
  • Secondary memory

Active constituent: GINSENOSIDES

The most important component of American Ginseng in Cereboost™ is the saponin fraction, commonly known as ginsenosides, due to its high bioactivity in the body. The total ginsenoside content in the Panax quinoquefolius root increases with age and location. The process of obtaining Cereboost™ has been meticulously studied and perfected to consistently guarantee the full integrity of the active ingredient, ginsenoside, extracted from the raw material.

Isolated ginsenosides have been studied to have the following effects:

  • Cognitive function enhancement
  • Glucose regulation
  • Chemoprevention
  • Neuroprotective
  • Antioxidation

Scientific Evidence

Cereboost™ has been demonstrated significant and positive impacts on major cognitive domains:

  • Attention
  • Speed of working Memory
  • Secondary memory

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover clinical study with daily 200mg Cereboost™ supplementation has been clinically proven to:

  • Improve working memory
  • Support attention

These results contribute to:

  • Increased cognitive performance
  • Healthier cognitive function
See publications of Cereboost™

Cereboost™ cognitive assessments

200mg of Cereboost™

By increasing the accuracy during a choice reaction task, Cereboost™ enhances the ability to sustain focus over time.

By speeding the reaction time, Cereboost™ reduces the time it takes to retrieve an item from working memory.

By ameliorating the working memory capacity, Cereboost™ helps to extend the memory span.
