ProdromeGlia™ (Oil)

Our bodies naturally produce plasmalogens, unique lipid molecules essential for the proper functioning of nerve, heart, lung, eye, and kidney cells. However, as we age or face health issues, our ability to produce these critical molecules diminishes. This decline can lead to a host of issues, from cognitive impairment to weakened overall bodily function.

Diet alone can't solve this problem because plasmalogens are degraded in the gut.

That's where ProdromeGlia™ steps in. It delivers these vital molecules directly to where they are needed most, allowing you to maintain optimal health and vitality.

ProdromeGlia™ is a dietary supplement designed to support myelin health and brain function. It may be beneficial for:

• Individuals looking to support myelin integrity: Myelin is essential for nerve function, and maintaining its health is important.
• Those seeking brain health support: Myelin structure and function can be influenced by various factors, including aging and lifestyle.
• Individuals managing stress: Prolonged stress may impact the cells that help maintain myelin, such as oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells.
• Aging populations: Plasmalogens, critical components of myelin, naturally decline over time.
• Those taking ProdromeNeuro™: ProdromeGlia™ is often used alongside ProdromeNeuro™ to provide a more comprehensive approach to brain health, with a focus on myelin (white matter) support.

ProdromeNeuro™ and ProdromeGlia™ are both dietary supplements that are synthetically pure plasmalogen precursors. The difference between the two lies in their fatty acid composition and targeted area of effect within the body.

ProdromeGlia™ is an omega-9 (oleic acid) plasmalogen precursor.  It contains the plasmalogen building blocks for glial cells that make up brain white matter. Glia are cells that surround, support, and protect neurons. These plasmalogens commonly decrease with inflammation. 

ProdromeNeuro™ is an omega-3 (DHA) plasmalogen precursor. It contains the plasmalogen building blocks for neurons that make up brain gray matter. Neurons are cells that process and transmit information in the body. These plasmalogens commonly become deficient with age. 

Both plasmalogen precursors are manufactured in a cGMP facility in Temecula, CA, USA

ProdromeGlia is made using a patented process that combines purified oleic acid with a synthesized plasmalogen precursor backbone to create a stable and bioavailable oil.

What happens in our lab:

• Purifying Oleic Acid: Oleic acid (an omega-9 fatty acid) is extracted from organic high oleic acid sunflower meal. The sunflower oil is broken down to separate the oleic acid from its glycerol backbone. The oleic acid is then washed and purified to remove trace metals, organic contaminants, and microbiological impurities.
• Synthesizing the Plasmalogen Precursor Backbone: Unlike animal-derived sources, the plasmalogen precursor backbone is created from scratch in a pure form.
• Combining the Components: The purified oleic acid is attached to the plasmalogen precursor, forming ProdromeGlia oil.
• Final Purification & Packaging: Before bottling or encapsulation, the oil undergoes further purification to remove oxygen and water molecules, ensuring maximum purity and resistance to oxidation.

*The finished product does not contain any sunflower oil—only the purified oleic acid.

Your nervous system is like a high-speed internet network, with nerve fibers (axons) acting as cables that carry signals between your brain, spinal cord, and the rest of your body. These signals control everything from movement and reflexes to thoughts and memory.

Myelin is a protective coating that wraps around these nerve fibers—similar to the insulation on electrical wires. Without this insulation, signals can get lost or slow down, leading to problems with movement, thinking, or even basic body functions.

______________

Why is Myelin Important?

• Keeps signals strong and fast – Without myelin, nerve signals weaken or get disrupted, like a bad Wi-Fi connection.
• Protects nerves from damage – Myelin shields nerve fibers from harmful stress and wear.
• Helps your brain and body communicate – Every time you move, think, or feel something, nerve impulses travel through these myelin-covered pathways.

The Role of Plasmalogens in Myelin

Myelin is made up of special fats called plasmalogens, which help keep it strong and functional. Your body relies on specific cells—oligodendrocytes in the brain and Schwann cells in the rest of the nervous system—to build and repair myelin. These cells produce omega-9 plasmalogens, which are essential for myelin health.

ProdromeGlia™ provides omega-9 plasmalogen precursors, supporting the cells that maintain and repair myelin—helping keep your nerve signals clear, fast, and reliable.
