EHL: The Essentials of Healthy LivingSM
Brain
Healthy brain functioning requires many important nutrients as well as an active, social lifestyle. Aging and other damage from exposure to free radicals in the body can play a role in brain disorders. Therefore, a diet rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids is very important to enhancing memory, cognitive skills, learning ability, mood, and stress tolerance. Also, keep your brain sharp by incorporating key components of nutrition into your daily routine.

Phosphatidyl Serine Complex
Phosphatides are lipid substances that make up the protective membrane covering every cell, including those found in the brain. Normally the body manufactures its own phosphatides from nutrients provided in food. However, if the diet is deficient in any one of a number of these key nutrients, the body may not make a sufficient amount of phosphatides for healthy brain function. Pathway PS-100 is a formula designed to enhance memory and cognitive skills. Along with 100 mg of phosphatidyl serine, it also contains other beneficial phosphatides and essential fatty acids.
