Ocean protein boosts memory, focus & concentration

Can a simple sea protein hold the key to preserving your memory? Scientists in Madison Wisconsin are saying yes! In a breakthrough that could affect the lives of millions of Americans over 40, researchers have discovered a protein from the depths of the ocean that could actually protect our brain cells as we age.

Robert Pastore, PhD, member of the prestigious New York Academy of Sciences, explains “as you age, you lose about 30,000 brain cells a day and that impacts every aspect of your life…how you think and how you feel.”

Recently, scientists made a significant breakthrough, locating a calcium-binding protein (CaBP) called “apoaequorin,” that can help with a healthier brain, sharper mind and clearer thinking. Fortunately, apoaequorin is in the same family or class of proteins as those found in humans. And in a strange twist, it comes from one of nature’s simplest organisms — the jellyfish.

Recently, a cutting-edge U.S. biopharmaceutical company, Quincy Bioscience, formulated this vital protein derived from jellyfish into a product called Prevagen®. It’s the first and only supplement that restores CaBP levels and protects your brain cells from the ravages of time.
