These essential fatty acids have an effect on a variety of disorders including the treatment and prevention of coronary artery disease and lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Because essential fatty acids are found in high concentrations in the brain, they are essential for nerve conduction and brain function. A deficiency in the essential fatty acids may...

Olympian Labs Ribose

Olympian Labs Ribose
by Olympian Labs

Ribose is found naturally in every living cell of the body and is made from glucose. It plays an important role in the synthesis of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Ribose is also the starting point for the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the major source of energy used by our cells for normal function. Ribose supplementation may speed up the regeneration of ATP in muscle cells that have been deprived of oxygen, such as skeletal muscle tissue after intense...

A U.S. pharmaceutical company spent over 400 million dollars researching this molecule. Hoodia Gordonii has been used for...

Product Description
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid found in all cells. It is a major component of cell walls (membrane) in the brain. Cell membranes surround the cell, keep it intact and regulate many vital cellular functions including the storage, release and activity of many important neurotransmitters (brain chemicals) and their receptors. Phosphatidylserine is also important in cell-to-cell communication. PS stimulates the release of dopamine (a mood regulator that also control physical sensations, and movement), increases the production of acetylcholine (necessary for learning and memory), enhances brain glucose metabolism and reduces cortisol (a stress hormone) levels. PS is most often used in the relief of age related memory and cognitive decline. Research has shown that dietary supplementation with phosphatidylserine may slow or reverse the decline of learning, mood, memory, concentration, or age-related cognitive impairment. More recently, PS is being used for its ability to help reduce cortisol levels. Cortisol is an important and necessary steroid hormone most commonly known as our body s stress hormone. Cortisol is produced by the adrenal glands (small triangular shaped glands located on top of the kidneys) and is involved in many critically body functions including the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats from the foods you eat and in the regulation of blood sugar. Its main function is in the body s stress response. When faced with any type of mental, emotional or physical stress, your adrenal glands release cortisol into the bloodstream. Cortisol provides you with the nutrients you need to manage the stress. If cortisol levels are elevated over a period of months or years, those high levels can have a profound negative impact on our overall health. In fact, recent research has focused on the correlation between elevated cortisol levels and weight gain, insulin resistance and the development of Type 2 Diabetes. Cortisol is also considered a fat storage
