Brain: how to increase its power

Are you reaching your full potential? Discover how to increase your brain power every day!

Some days, when you're not in the mood, your brain is in neutral. You can't remember where you put your keys or what you put in the thawing cabinet for dinner. Maybe it's age, stress, medication, hormones or just a bad day, but we've all been there. Memory is the ability to recall past experiences. When most people think of memories, they think "nostalgia", but memory is also the ability to remember how to tie your shoelaces or drive a car! So maintaining your memory should be a top priority. The best thing you can do to keep your memory in shape is to stay physically and mentally active. Get active every day, read, experiment with new things, challenge your brain every day and eat healthily. New research shows that one type of supplement can also help keep our memory in shape!

Research published in 2010 on an American ginseng extract showed that it boosted cognitive performance by 10% for a period of 6 hours after absorption. (Schloey, 2010). This extract, called Cereboost, has been standardized to contain a precise ratio of ginsenosides, the active compounds responsible for ginseng's efficacy. It is this specific ratio that gives Cereboost its unique ability to enhance cognitive performance, without the nervous side effects that can often occur with other forms of ginseng.

The clinical study demonstrated that Cereboost was effective for:

- Improving cognitive performance

- Improve memory capacity

- Increase attention span

- Improve working memory speed

Research suggests that, in addition to Cereboost, there are two other nutrients that boost cognitive function. Indeed, a growing body of research shows that DHA and EPA (omega-3 fatty acids from fish) have very positive benefits. A recent controlled study showed that fish oil consumption improved cognitive performance in healthy participants after five weeks of use(Nilsson, 2012). Other research involving healthy participants aged 18 to 25 taking DHA and EPA showed that these further improved working memory even though it was already at peak functioning (Narendran, 2012). These essential fatty acids are invaluable in limiting the cognitive decline often present with aging. Unfortunately, the Canadian diet is often deficient in essential fatty acids, so it's imperative for your health to ensure you get an adequate supply through supplements.

Taking Cereboost for its positive short-term effect on cognition and fish oils for their long-term benefits on the brain is an excellent way to combat the lack of concentration that everyone faces at one time or another. Cerebrum from Renew Life combines these two ingredients in a unique formula to provide comprehensive support for your cognitive ability.

Whether you're a professional needing help to concentrate on a long day, over 50 and looking for extra support for your brain function, or a university student trying to get through bulky, difficult documents or exams, Cerebrum can help! Why not take advantage of this benefit and try Cerebrum today?
