Life Extension Vinpocetine Description
- The periwinkle plant is known for the beautiful purple and blue hues of its flowers, but there’s so much more to this plant—especially when it comes to brain health.
- It is a source of an alkaloid called vincamine that produces the brain-supportive nutrient vinpocetine.
- Vinpocetine is known for its brain health benefits, including encouraging healthy brain blood flow, the ability to retain and recall information (aka memory), maintaining concentration and even supporting optimal oxygen and glucose use by the brain.
- These benefits contribute to overall cognitive function. Our vinpocetine formula is non-GMO, gluten-free, vegetarian and manufactured in the USA.
Although the periwinkle plant may be best known for its pink and purple garden flowers – which is why periwinkle is the name of a color – it is also the source of vincamine, an alkaloid, from which the memory- and cognition-supporting ingredient vinpocetine is derived.
Vinpocetine is known to encourage optimal brain blood supply, support the ability to retain and recall information, help maintain concentration and support oxygen & glucose use by the brain.
Several clinical trials have demonstrated that vinpocetine supplementation can support healthy brain blood flow, memory, concentration, and overall cognitive function.
When taken orally, vinpocetine is easily absorbed.
