Centrophenoxine is a powerful, pluripotent derivative of dimethylamino-ethanol (DMAE) which has remarkable, often unique properties that have been studied and clinically demonstrated for more than 40 years. Centrophenoxine:

● significantly improves the memorising process, even more so than DMAE itself. It does so by, in particular, increasing the speed at which memorised information can be used;
● improves the use and metabolism of glucose and oxygen in the brain which benefits concentration and attention and contributes to a sense of well-being;
● is the only known agent shown to reduce the accumulation of lipofuscin, a toxin associated with ageing, in the cells of the brain, heart, lungs and skin. Liposfuscin is a type of metabolic ‘waste product' made up of fragments of damaged proteins and fatty acids. Cells attacked by lipofuscin can no longer communicate and function properly. Patients with Alzheimer's disease have abnormally high levels of lipofuscin in the brain. You can read an extremely interesting article from James South, MA on : antiagingsystems.com

¤ Professor Imre Zs. Nagy of the University of Debrecen (Hungary) is the author of the ‘membrane' theory of ageing. He found that while the cells that make up young bodies consist of 92% water and lipids and 8% dry mass, those of elderly bodies comprise only 40% water and lipids and 60% dry mass. This huge difference has major implications for the ability of cells to communicate via chemical and electrical signals and even by heat transfer.

¤ Professor Nagy developed and used centrophenoxine to modify the cell structure of elderly animals by removing lipofuscin build-up and by changing the water and lipid/dry mass ratio to that of younger animals. His experiments were so effective that, in addition to a number of behavioural improvements, the longevity of the treated animals increased by up to 40% compared with the controls !

¤ Centrophenoxine has been shown to be effective both at fighting cerebral ageing and reducing excessive levels of lipofuscin. It may also be an essential weapon in the fight against ageing and age-related diseases in general.

Healthy individuals should take one or two 250 mg vegetarian capsules a day as a preventive measure (Prof. Nagy himself has been taking 500 mg a day for over 25 years). Those with senile dementia may take 3-6 vegetarian capsules a day on the advice of their therapists.
