 Mental Edge Bio-Aligned FormulaFoundational Support
 
 Aging and nutritional imbalances can disrupt the multiple body systems that 
  affect healthy brain function. The result: cognitive symptoms such as forgetfulness, 
  inability to focus, and mental fatigue.
 
 Mental Edge is a Bio-Aligned Formula that supports the interdependent body systems 
  involved with healthy brain function. Mental Edge formula combines nutrients, 
  herbs and special ingredients to address multiple, interdependent body systems: 
  neurotransmitter production, antioxidant defense, energy generation, stress 
  response and myelin sheath generation.
 Mental Edge - A Literal Multivitamin for Your Brain 
  Supplement FactsNeurotransmitter ProductionNeurons (nerve cells) communicate with each other when neurotransmitters (brain 
    chemicals) cross a small gap, called a synapse, to convey a message from one 
    neuron to the next. Second messengers help transmit the message from the membrane 
    of a receiving neuron to its inner environment.
 
 
Acetylcholine ProductionAcetylcholine is one of the most important neurotransmitters in the brain. 
    It is vital for memory and muscle movement. The following ingredients are 
    precursors to acetylcholine. For example, DMAE is particularly important because 
    it more easily crosses the protective blood-brain barrier, making it available 
    to form acetylcholine. DMAE also enhances mental concentration.
 
 
Antioxidant DefenseAntioxidants defend brain tissues and cell membranes. Antioxidants are critical 
    for the brain because neuron cell membranes, where electrical signaling takes 
    place, are primarily composed of lipids (fats) that are vulnerable to peroxidation 
    (rancidification) by free radicals.
 
 
Stress ResponseAdaptogenic herbs help provide the brain with the support and energy it needs 
    to deal with the physical and mental stresses of an ever-changing environment.
 
 
Energy MetabolismJust as every cell needs the proper nutrients to survive, so do neurons. The 
    brain accounts for 2% of our body weight, yet uses 15% of our total energy 
    supply. Adequate levels of energy generating nutrients are vital to the highpowered 
    functioning of the brain.
 
 
Myelin Sheath GenerationMyelin, composed of fat and protein, makes up the myelin sheath which forms 
    a protective insulating covering around certain nerve fibers. Properly formed 
    myelin increases nerve impulse conduction.
