Brain Defence responds to the growing body of research which recognizes that healthy brain function is not restricted to the head alone, but also involves both the heart and gut.
Sensoril™ Ashwagandha extract (Withania somnifera), bacopa extract (Bacopa monnieri), and chamomile (Chamomilla recutita) are all recognized as powerful adaptogens that help the body counteract the symptoms of stress and promote a feeling of calm. Bacopa supports memory and healthy cognitive function and helps normalize cortisol levels. Boswellia extract (Boswellia serrata) is a well-recognized natural anti-inflammatory and, along with Meriva® curcumin, completes the supplement with antioxidants that help protect against free radical damage. The anti-inflammatory properties of the extracts in Brain Defence also support gastric comfort.
Brain Defence is part of the Three Brains line of supplements which take a whole-body approach to optimal brain health. According to Karen Jensen, ND, author of Three Brains: How the Heart, Brain, and Gut Influence Mental Health and Identity, “There is growing evidence that nutrients from whole foods, exercise, and supplements are effective, non-invasive ways to support mental health and cognition.”
