Learning is Fundamental
Every time you reason, perceive, judge, or exercise awareness you're utilizing your cognitive abilities. Cognition is loosely defined as the mental process of gaining knowledge through a variety of stimuli such as our senses and experiences. Sounds simple, huh?

It's actually one of the most complicated and important processes our brain performs. Constantly. Without the ability to gain knowledge, a.k.a. learn, there's no mental growth or development. So maintaining cognitive and brain health is vitally important for anyone to survive and succeed in life. More importantly, it's absolutely essential for a good quality of life.

Healthy cognitive function throughout life depends on many different variables, not the least of which is good nutrition. There are a variety of natural nutrients and brain supplements that can nourish our brain and nervous system to keep you processing information at faster-than-light speeds.

• Lecithin and Phosphatidyl Serine – Lecithin is a natural, fatty substance that's an integral component of cell membranes. It's comprised of various biochemicals including essential fatty acids, as well as phospholipids and phosphatides such as phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidyl serine. Phosphatidyl choline is a major component of the brain and nervous system.
• Melatonin – Naturally produced by the pineal gland, melatonin is involved in many of the regulatory processes of the body, including regulation of certain glandular secretory functions. Many people know melatonin as the natural ingredient that supports a healthy sleep/wake cycle.

It possesses a bioactive compound called curcumin (softgels, veg caps, Phytosome veg caps) that's been extensively studied in recent years for its various biological activities. A specific curcumin product called Longvida Optimized Curcumin may help support normal cognitive function. Longvida has the ability to cross the blood/brain barrier and is up to 65 times more bioavailable than other forms of curcumin.
