How many plasmalogens are in the human brain?

Plasmalogens are a major building block of the body, making up 20% of the brain!

Plasmalogens are not some trace nutrients. They are found in high levels in the brain, heart, lungs, retina, and kidneys. As we age, our levels decrease. Our bodies are no longer keeping up with the demand as plasmalogens are used up by the body as powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatory molecules. High doses are needed to effectively replenish and maintain the levels the body needs.

The original scientific studies indicated doses of 900mg (10mg/kg) were effective for protection but that doses of up to 4500mg (50mg/kg) were best for repair*. In our clinical work now with leaders in Clinical Neurology, we are confirming exactly that – our most recent results observe benefits with doses ranging from 900mg to 3600mg. That is why we formulated our plasmalogen product to have a daily serving of 900mg. 

Some individuals benefit from a loading dose of 2 to 4 times the daily dose for one to three months to rapidly repair.
