Phosphatidylserine<\/strong> <\/em>(PS for short) is a super healthy, natural brain supplement you need to know about. Phosphatidylserine is a type of fat that naturally occurs in your body\u2019s cells, and it\u2019s found in significantly high concentrations within the human brain. That\u2019s why it has been proven to be a safe and effective brain supplement that can treat and prevent brain diseases such as Alzheimer\u2019s and dementia. PS also treats and prevents stress, ADHD and cognitive decline.<\/p>\n

\"servings<\/a>As infants, humans get healthy servings of phosphatidylserine while breast-feeding, as it is found in breast milk. As adults, we find that not very many foods contain PS. White beans and tuna fish do, but the average human diet does not contain high amounts of those foods. That\u2019s why taking a natural phosphatidylserine supplement is so highly recommended and why it\u2019s considered to be one of the healthiest natural supplements you could take.<\/p>\n

Phosphatidylserine is essential for healthy brain cells<\/strong><\/p>\n

The FDA granted a powerful health claim for phosphatidylserine due to it being essential for the optimization of healthy brain cells. By strengthening cell membranes, PS helps keep pathogens and toxins out of the brain. PS also increases brain cell fluidity which helps your brain cells effectively respond to and adapt to stressors.<\/p>\n

Phosphatidylserine helps brain cells communicate<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"brain<\/a><\/p>\n

PS is a major component of brain cell membranes and it is highly involved with brain cell growth and communication. When your brain cells communicate properly, it\u2019s far less likely you\u2019ll develop dementia. When your brain cells communicate well with each other, you\u2019ll have higher cognitive function, better memory, better sleep, reduced stress, higher learning<\/a>, quicker thinking and better focus.<\/p>\n

Since PS strengthens neurotransmitters such as serotonin, acetylcholine and dopamine, it therefore improves brain cell communication.\u00a0 PS has been studied extensively, and it has shown to improve many aspects of memory and make it less likely that we will develop dementia.<\/p>\n

Phosphatidylserine reduces cortisol in the brain<\/strong><\/p>\n

The stress hormone, cortisol, is very bad for our health and the better we can manage it the better quality our lives will be. PS is a supplement that helps keep cortisol levels down.<\/p>

\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n

This is critical because if cortisol levels are perpetually high, serious health implications will follow. When the stress hormone is present due to continual or prolonged stress, you\u2019ll be more likely to develop diabetes and heart disease, and you\u2019ll be more likely to become obese. Furthermore, the high levels of cortisol are also linked with depression, anxiety, memory problems, concentration problems, mood swings<\/a>, and inability to focus.<\/p>\n

Phosphatidylserine prevents brain disease and mental decline<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Dementia\"<\/a><\/p>\n

PS can be used for memory enhancement, to enhance thinking skills, and to improve concentration and focus. Students appreciate this when they\u2019re attempting to learn a vast amount of material for an exam. PS is also used to prevent mental decline and age-related memory problems. It can treat and prevent serious brain diseases such as Alzheimer\u2019s and dementia.<\/p>\n

The FDA has approved PS manufacturers to make qualified claims on the label, such as \u201cit contains phosphatidylserine; and, consumption of phosphatidylserine may reduce the risk of dementia in the elderly.\u201d\u00a0 Another FDA-approved label states \u201cconsumption of phosphatidylserine may reduce the risk of cognitive dysfunction in the elderly.\u201d Although the label further indicates that there is little scientific evidence to support these claims, we do know that we\u2019ll soon have substantial evidence.<\/p>\n

Plus, phosphatidylserine is the only brain supplement on the market that has been granted permission by the FDA to make these health claims, so that\u2019s something.<\/p>\n

Phosphatidylserine reduces symptoms of ADHD<\/strong><\/p>\n

ADHD is an extremely common mental disorder, the symptoms of which involve inattentiveness, inability to focus, impulsiveness and problems with memory. It is common in both children and adults. It can debilitate learning potential and productivity, and it can even be the cause of unexpected issues such as poor hygiene and messy or unclean habits. Prescription stimulants such as Adderall, Dexedrine and Ritalin are thought to be not-so-ideal solutions.<\/p>\n

However, a natural supplement, such as phosphatidylserine, could be a safer alternative to help treat ADHD symptoms. So far, studies have found evidence that PS does help reduce symptoms of ADHD. It\u2019s important, however, not to exceed the recommended dose of 300 mg per day.<\/p>\n
