Hericium Erinaceus, commonly referred to as Lion’s Mane, is a species of medicinal fungus, used for hundreds of years in Chinese medicine. Lion’s mane shows scientifically proven nootropic and immunomodulatory properties, primarily due to the content of erinacines.

Erinacines have been demonstrated to stimulate the secretion of NGF (nerve growth factor) which is vital to brain plasticity, normal neuronal metabolism and myelination processes. NGF may also support the formation of neuronal connections and thus influence positively memory and accelerate thought processes.

N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine is an acetylated form of the amino acid L-tyrosine. Acelylation helps increase considerably the absorption of this compound. L-Tyrosine is a precursor for the synthesis of important neurotransmitters – adrenaline, noradrenaline and dopamine, and melanin and tyrosine. By regulating levels of neurotransmitters, L-tyrosine contributes indirectly to optimal physical and mental fitness, emotional stability, memory and focus and high energy levels.

Even though L-tyrosine is an indispensable amino acid, its concentrations depend from the levels of another indispensable amino acid – L-phenylalanine. Because of that, it is acknowledged that most of the requirement of L-tyrosine is satisfied by an adequate diet and supplementation.

Alpha GPC (choline alfoscerate) is a choline compound and a precursor to acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine. Choline alfoscerate is registered as a nootropic agent, used in dementia. Increasing choline intake by alpha GPC supplements contributes to raising levels of acetylcholine – a neurotransmitter responsible for normal cognitive processes and memory. Phosphatidylcholine is in turn a component of the plasma membrane of neurons which thus stabilises and normalises its composition. As a result, it promotes their regeneration and normal function.

Bacopa monnieri is one of the most important Ayurvedic plants. It is classified among adaptogenic herbs. Bacopa owes to its properties to the presence of bacosides, in particular bacoside A and B. It has far-reaching, therapeutic effects on the body, backed by numerous studies. Bacopa helps improve memory and other cognitive functions and has anti-stress, antioxidant, antidepressant and neuroprotective effects.

B.monnieri has a beneficial effect on the activity of the cholinergic system, probably by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase (an enzyme which breaks down acetylcholine) in the cerebral cortex. Studies on animals have shown an improvement in cerebral circulation due to 8-week administration of bacopa extract. What is more, it has not been demonstrated to change peripheral blood pressure.

Huperzia serrata is a plant species which is a source of the alkaloid hyperzine A, an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (it has thus similar effects to B.monnieri). Consequently,the plant has procognitive and neuroprotective effects. It is also used in sports supplementation. In addition, huperzine A helps treat dementia.

L-Theanine is a non-protein amino acid found in green tea leaves. It is classified among nootropics. Its properties have been demonstrated in studies on animals and humans. It has been shown to have anxiolytic and sedative effects and increase alertness and focus. It has not been reported to have anti-stress effects on relaxed persons. Supplementing with L-theanine may bring benefits to the cardiovascular system – it is reported that it normalises blood pressure.

To sum up, MAGNUM NUTRACEUTICALS Mane Brain is a complex dietary supplement which promotes cognitive functions and mental and physical performance. It is recommended especially to individuals peforming mental and physical tasks and before exams and tests to enhance focus, learning, memory and energy levels.
