What are Plasmalogens?
A Key Part of Every Cell Membrane—
All 30 Trillion of Them.
Every cell is surrounded by a membrane that controls communication, energy flow, and how the body responds to stress.
Plasmalogens are a key part of that structure… all 30 trillion of them.
But plasmalogen levels decline with age.
When levels decline across trillions of cells, the effect compounds, impacting the very functions that support (your client's) health.
Key Functions of Plasmalogens Include:
-
Membrane integrity and stability
-
Cell signaling and receptor function
-
Mitochondrial function and cellular energy
-
Protection against lipid peroxidation
-
Peroxisomal activity and lipid metabolism
Plasmalogens Are
Critical To All Cells.
Brain
Plasmalogens solidify and amplify the signals between neurons to optimize physical and cognitive performance.
Blood
People with high blood plasmalogens were 80% less likely to experience dementia and are proven to live longer.
Cell Walls
Plasmalogens are the building blocks of healthy cells, including building and strengthening the myelin sheath in neuronal cells.
Lungs
Plasmalogens are key components of lung cell membranes, supporting membrane integrity and contributing to antioxidant defense at the cellular level.
Heart
Plasmalogens strengthen the heart muscle by reinforcing the cellular structure and function and preventing premature oxidation.
Hair & Nails
Plasmalogens in nail beds and hair follicles allow richer & thicker hair and healthier & faster-growing nails.
Aging
Antioxidant free radical that acts as the body's first line of defense against oxidation, disease and aging.
Eyes
Plasmalogens are vitally important in the membranes of neuronal tissues that link the brain and the retina. The higher the plasmalogen levels, the lower the risk of glaucoma.
White Matter Plasmalogens
Structural support for myelin and membrane integrity
White matter plasmalogens support the structure and stability of myelin—the protective layer that enables efficient nerve signaling.
They help maintain membrane integrity, insulation, and overall function across the nervous system.
This is the focus of ProdromeGlia™.
Grey Matter Plasmalogens
Functional support for signaling and neurotransmission
Grey matter plasmalogens play a key role in how brain cells communicate.
They support neurotransmitter release, receptor activity, and overall signaling—helping maintain how the brain processes and responds to information.
This is the focus of PlasmalogenN3™.
PlasmalogenN3™ (Formerly ProdromeNeuro™)
