Scientifically proven to help protect memory function.
What makes VIVIMIND™ a new generation memory protection
solution?
VIVIMIND™ is different from other natural health solutions
because it is:
- Supported by over 15 years of combined rigorous scientific
research including clinical testing with over 2,000 individuals.
- The first nutraceutical to undergo such in-depth evaluation
in large state-of-the-art clinical trials in the field of cognition.
About VIVIMIND™ Homotaurine, Taurine
After hundreds of millions of dollars invested and 15 years
of rigorous scientific research, including clinical testing with
over 2,000 individuals in 68 European, 50 U.S. and 17 Canadian
medical centers, VIVIMIND™ is now available for consumers.
For an aging population, VIVIMIND™ represents a breakthrough
in one of the key consequences of getting older - memory loss.
VIVIMIND™ is a science-based natural health product that
has been shown to protect memory function based on the naturally
occurring ingredient, homotaurine, found in seaweed.
How does VIVIMIND™ work?
As we age, certain brain regions start to shrink. This shrinkage
reflects loss of brain cells. One brain region in which brain
cell loss occurs is the hippocampus, a region responsible for
learning and memory. Shrinkage of the hippocampus has been associated
with learning and memory problems.
Why does the loss of brain cells in the hippocampal region
occur?
Experts believe that the buildup of certain toxic proteins called
beta-amyloid (or A-beta) is detrimental to the brain. When these
proteins reach excessive levels, they cause neurons (brain cells)
within the brain to malfunction and die. When neurons are damaged
or die, signaling problems occur in the brain that ultimately
affect memory and learning abilities.
VIVIMIND™ is a patented product based on the naturally
occurring ingredient homotaurine, which binds to A-beta proteins
and reduces the deposition and toxic effects of these proteins
in the brain.
In a ground breaking study performed in Canada and the United
States using brain scans (magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)),
VIVIMIND™ was shown to significantly reduce the loss of
brain volume in the hippocampus. In fact, VIVIMIND™ was
proven to preserve 68% more brain volume versus placebo (like
a sugar pill)5.
Individuals taking VIVIMIND™ also performed better on
memory and thinking tests compared with individuals taking placebo.
VIVIMIND™ was found to improve cognitive performance (verbal
skills, memory, comprehension ability, planning and execution
skills) by 33% versus placebo.
VIVIMIND™:
- Protects the brain structure associated with memory and learning:
The hippocampus is a region associated with learning and memory.
VIVIMIND™ can help reduce the loss of volume of this very
important region of the brain.
- Preserves memory: You know how you can be introduced to someone
and forget their name two minutes later? Don't worry, because
you're not alone. VIVIMIND™ can support you in maintaining
your ability to remember things like people's names.
- Sustains brain cell health: As you age, it is normal to lose
brain cells. VIVIMIND™ can help protect your brain cells
during the normal course of aging.
- Maintains verbal skills and comprehension ability: VIVIMIND™
can help you maintain your level of verbal comprehension and
your overall quality of speech. So when you're telling a story
or making a presentation, VIVIMIND™ can help you maintain
your train of thought.
- Supports planning and execution skills: You've just arrived
at your vacation destination and you suddenly remember you forgot
to cancel your newspaper subscription. VIVIMIND™ can help
you maintain your ability to go from the initial planning to
remembering everything you need to make it a trip you'll never
forget.
What is the recommended dosage?
VIVIMIND™ should be taken daily and should be swallowed
whole (not crushed, blended or mixed). The recommended adult
(18 years of age and older) dose is one to two tablets twice
a day (in the morning and evening preferably at mealtime). If
a dose is missed, do not double the dose to make up for the missed
dose – simply start again at the next scheduled dose. Each
tablet of VIVIMIND™ contains 50 mg of homotaurine.
What is the safety profile?
While VIVIMIND™ is generally well tolerated at the recommended
dose, some people may experience nausea, weight loss, dizziness
or fainting. In many cases, symptoms are temporary. If they persist,
contact your healthcare professional.
Can VIVIMIND™ be used with other natural products
or medications?
Metabolism studies suggest that interactions between VIVIMIND™
and other products are not likely to occur. No specific interaction
studies were conducted with other products. For further information,
contact your healthcare professional.
