The American Brain Council Endorses A New Nano Formulation for Brain Health

Recently the American Brain Council was asked to do an independent evaluation of the efficacy of a new formulation for the brain called NEURO. This was designed by and is being sold through an extraordinarily successful social marketing organization called Neumi.

While the 14 ingredients in NEURO (see below) are not particularly new or novel, the HydraStat Nanotechnology™ used in the production of this liquid formula, is quite new, and it appears to be extraordinarily effective at delivering these nano sized nutrients to the brain, or wherever else they are needed.

The rationale behind this technology is the awareness that the molecules in many supplements may not be broken down well enough for easy assimilation into our cells, and thus end up being excreted from the body without being used effectively. This may be particularly true for many seniors, especially those with any kind of digestion or assimilation issues.

So Neumi uses this “breakthrough” technology to increase the bioavailability and effectiveness of its products by breaking down large molecules and enveloping them in ultra-pure water clusters. Their nanosized ingredients are said to be so small that they are fully absorbed through oral membranes into cell, by simply swishing for a minute or so, at a significantly higher rate than nutrients processed through our digestive system.

As a result our investigation showed that, NEURO was able to effect notable improvements in memory and mood, in individuals who had made little progress with other similar formulations, with standard delivery systems. And it appeared to work faster. Often otherwise healthy people reported significantly better recall, greater mental clarity, or improved mood within days if not hours! Especially when multiple doses were taken.

What’s In It?

This new NEURO formula is comprised of 14 nutrients. Here are those nutrients along with some of the benefits they may convey. We've listed these in accordance with 4 basic needs of the brain.

For Mental Energy:  (A primary need for healthy brain function)

  • Acetyl-L-carnitine: Breaks down fats for improved mental energy, helps build neuro-transmitters. stimulates brain growth factors.
  • Caffeine (a small amount from green tea):  Improves mental energy to enhance focus, alertness, and , supporting cognitive performance.

For Protection:  (To arrest inflammation due to oxidative stress, toxins, and age.)

  • L-Glutathione: The king of the antioxidants, it helps protect the brain from oxidative stress, inflammation, neuro toxins and immune disfunction and promotes healing.
  • L-Cysteine: A basic building block for the production of glutathione, an important antioxidant for brain and lung health.
  • MSM:  Also help reduce inflammation in the body and brain.
  • Calcium Ascorbate: Provides a source of Vitamin C, a water-soluble antioxidant that supports glutathione synthesis.
  • Curcumin: Known for its anti-antioxidant properties, it supports glutathione in reducing inflammation in the brain and may help improve mood as well as memory.
  • Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate: The active form of Vitamin B6, it plays a vital role in preventing “glycation”, damage to proteins in our brain and vascular system, caused by sugar and heat. Also aids in neurotransmitter synthesis and other brain functions.

For Boosting Brain Cell Integrity & Function 

  • Alpha GPC choline or Citicoline: A precursor to acetylcholine, the primary  neurotransmitter needed for making memories and learning - often reduced with age and some medications.
  • Phosphatidyl Serine: A phospholipid that supports the integrity of brain cells and aids in neurotransmissions that support memory and cognitive function.
  • Magnesium Gluconate: Essential for over 300 chemical actions in the body and brain. It helps calm our nerves, allows us to relax and concentrate, but it also plays a role in energizing our cells, and thus supports memory, learning, and overall cognitive performance.
  • L-theanine: Also promotes a state of calm and relaxation while enhancing focus and attention, and can facilitate sleep at night time.

For Improving Circulation of Nutrients to the Brain (No matter how good your diet and supplements are if they are not well circulated to the brain they won't help.)

  • Arginine: Helps arteries relax and dilate thus promoting better blood - nutrient and oxygen - flow to the brain & other body parts.
  • Ginkgo Biloba:  Reduces blood clotting and facilitates blood flow to the brain, shown in numerous studies to help improve memory, and overall brain health.

As you can see, this is an exceptionally well designed formulation.  However, NEURO was not effective for everyone in our study.  As our Personal Assessment would predict individuals with very significant unaddressed risk factors such as the inability to get a good night’s sleep, high sugar diet, high stress, sedentary lifestyle, dementia and other serious risk factors noted in our assessment, were less likely to see good progress, at least within a month. 

For such individuals, taking NEURO for a longer period of time, may help, especially if they are able to better address or modify significant risk factors, i.e. sleep better, eat better, maybe add a few other nutrients to their diet, perhaps detox if needed, and become more physically active on a regular basis. We know such modifications, discussed on this website, can have a powerful synergistic effect, which would likely improve the effectiveness of NEURO, with an even higher percentage of the population. 

We therefore suggest that anyone wishing to try NEURO also take our Personal Assessment to help determine if there are other things they should consider doing that may increase the probability of this exceptional supplement, or any other supplements, being effective. 

(Note:  Individuals on “blood thinners or anticoagulants” or those with A-fib or a pacemaker, should talk with their doctor first, as it contains Ginkgo which can also reduce clotting.)  

Although there are currently many good nutritional formulas that support brain health. NEURO may turn out to be, one of the best yet.  Learn more on our website under Step 1 Supplements to Consider.
