COGNITIVE NUTRITION

ENHANCING THE MIND: Cognitive Nutrition is a scientifically-designed supplement containing DMAE.  DMAE is a nutrient that will support brain function such as the ability to acquire new memories.  It protects and restores brain function through its ability to prevent inadequate oxygen (hypoxia) damage.  By increasing oxygen and energy (glucose) the memory becomes more clear and the thinking becomes sharper.                                                         DMAE can dissolve amyloid plaque. This cellular debris builds up in the cells of the brain ultimately compromising communication between the cells contributing to the complications of Alzheimer's disease.  DMAE increases the acetylcholine level in the brain and body.  By increasing acetylcholine levels vasopressin (a choline precursor in the brain) is released.  Vasopresson is a memory learning chemical that regulates motor function and the nervous system sensory response.  It also forms the nerve connections we require to develop new memories, which have been lost in ageing.      Sincerely, Richard Helfrich Health Spectrum at The River 71-800 Hwy.111,A149 Rancho Mirage, CA 92270 (760) 340-5935, http://www.richardhelfrich.com/or http://www.healthspectrumpalmdesert.com/

THE SKIN: The cells of the skin consist of sixty percent fat and forty percent collagen.  It is the high fat content that makes the skin so vulnerable to oxidative stress from the external environment.  In fact every cell of the skin gets on average 10,000 free radical hits per day.  It is like one man holding off an army of 10,000 hired soldiers each day.  One of the big culprits receiving much deserved attention today is of course the sun. Our body's natural defense, the melanin barrier is breached within a few hours of sun exposure and will not form for three days leaving the cells at the mercy of the sun.  Overexposure of the suns rays causes cellular debris (lipofuscin) to build up in the cells of the skin. Lipofuscin can take up a great percentage of cell volume interrupting cell machinery and ultimately destroying the cell or turning it necrotic (cancerous).    DMAE protects the skin from the UV rays of the sun by acting in place of melanin. DMAE not only acts as a shield for the skin against the sun it also can dissolve lipofuscin, the cellular debris which we recognize as an age spot or liver spot.
