Braincare II: 30-Day Supply

$80.00

Brain Care II was launched after 16 years of clinical application as a product to address the inflammation of the brain precipitated by an IED or blast wave trauma in our Veterans and active duty Service Members. Dr. Gordon began using Brain Care II in children and adolescence who had sustained head traumas (football, skateboarding, and other causes) with subsequent development of emotional and intellectual impairment. Once the most effective combination of these supplements was achieved, he converted BC II into a liposomal product for enhanced absorption.

Description

Promotes brain health through reduction of inflammation. A composition of natural ingredients to support optimal brain health and function. Clinically evaluated in Warrior Angels Foundation Military and Veteran participants by way of Dr. Gordon’s Millennium Health Centers.

Ingredients

DHA: One of the major building blocks of the brain, the omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is critical for optimal brain health and function at all ages of life. Researchers are now finding that DHA provides brain-boosting benefits in infants and aging adults. A key mechanism of DHA is the protection of neural tissue by the production of Resolvin and Protectin D1.

Tocopherol: Also known as Vitamin E (alpha, delta, and gamma) which has been found to reduce the production of inflammation by downregulating the production of the transcriptional factor NFkB responsible for signaling DNA to manufacture the inflammatory chemicals.

Ascorbic Palmitate: Unique to the different formulations of Vitamin C is this fat-soluble form which can easily enter into the blood supply feeding the brain. Once in the brain, Vitamin C is a major anti- inflammatory and free radical scavenger reducing inflammation. Vitamin C also increases the enzyme, Glutathione synthetase, that helps to make more brain and liver Glutathione that protects the brain and also helps detox from alcohol.

Quercetin: This is a natural polyphenolic, flavonoid antioxidant and has a number of important effects on the metabolism of the brain and reduction of inflammation. First, Quercetin can increase the production of mitochondria starting within 7 days yielding a higher production of energy as ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This ATP is used to run cellular functions which can be perceived as clearing thoughts, more energy and loss of fogginess. Second, Quercetin downregulates the production of the transcriptional trigger for inflammation, the notorious NFkB.

N-Acetyl-Cysteine: This is the two amino acid precursor of Glutathione that functions as the front-line defense against oxidative stress in the brain. After trauma, the levels of Glutathione are reduced, through consumption and damage to the enzyme system that regenerate it, and this allows for the accumulation of free radicles. This increased Oxidative Stress, which damages neurons and alters the molecular chemistry in the brain, is the focus of this and the entire Brain Care II product.

EGCG: Epigallocatechin gallate is the active agent in Green Tea. Studies on post-stoke patients and those with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease all benefited with an improvement in cognitive functioning when placed on EGCG.

Dose

As a stand-alone product: one teaspoon pre-breakfast and one teaspoon pre-dinner for two weeks and then just one teaspoon pre-breakfast.
