Dramatic Improvements in Cognitive Function with Improved Memory
& Learning by nearly 50%
Study: RBC Life Sciences’ Patent-Pending Nutritional Supplement, NeuroBright, Improved Learning and Memory by Nearly 50%
PRNewswireIRVING, Texas(NASDAQ-OTCBB:RBCL)
Irving, Texas (RBC Life Sciences: OTCBB: RBCL) — RBC Life Sciences, Inc., a provider of proprietary nutritional supplements and wound care/pain management products, announced today the debut of NeuroBright™, a patent-pending, nutritional supplement that improved test subjects’ learning and memory skills by 50 percent during a recent laboratory trial.
(Read the article on NeuroBright at http://www.lifesciencestoday.com/)
The veteran researcher who conducted the NeuroBright trial said few of the studies he has conducted in his 25 years in the field of neuroscience saw such dramatic improvements in cognitive function.
Lucien Thompson, head of the neuroscience program in the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences at the University of Texas at Dallas, said that his two-year animal study of NeuroBright showed that both young and aging rats in controlled trials saw marked improvement in learning and memory tasks similar to those that confront elderly populations. NeuroBright also improved psychomotor skills, including strength, endurance and balance, according to the study.*
“NeuroBright looks like it has a lot of promise to improve memory and learning, not just in rats but in people as well,” Thompson said. NeuroBright showed the potential to enhance “. . .the ability to learn new things, remember those things and then use that information.”
NeuroBright is a synergistic blend of herbs, whole food nutrients and RBC Life Sciences’ Microhydrin®, a uniquely formulated antioxidant whose health benefits have been detailed in numerous clinical and peer-reviewed studies. The company has filed for a composition-of-matter patent to protect NeuroBright’s formulation.
“One of our greatest fears is losing our mental capacity during the aging process,” said RBC Life Sciences President and CEO, John W. Price. “NeuroBright is the industry’s first and only product to combine Microhydrin with research-supported ingredients shown to support cognitive function—all in the convenience of a single nutritional supplement.”
“We believe NeuroBright will become one of RBC Life Sciences’ flagship products and a major contributor in the effort to help people address their fears of cognitive decline. NeuroBright is a natural, safe and effective way of helping us to think, learn and remember.”
The species of rat chosen for the double-blind, placebo-controlled trial shares many important biological attributes with humans. In addition to sharing just about every important protein, we share most of the same genome, similar developmental patterns and many of the same nervous system mechanisms, Thompson said. The learning and memory portion of the study monitored the animals as they navigated a spatial maze. Subjects were fed one of four foods: a placebo, Microhydrin, a formula of 11 herbal antioxidants, and NeuroBright (Microhydrin combined with the 11 herbal antioxidants).
Thompson said typically 25 percent of any control group of rats is identified as slow learners. Microhydrin alone, as well as the 11 herbal antioxidants alone, improved the subjects’ learning and memory. When the formulas were combined, as they are in NeuroBright, memory and learning improved dramatically. In fact, NeuroBright completely eliminated the slow learners, Thompson said. Every animal exhibited improved learning and memory.
As we age, our brains are increasingly ravaged by the effects of free radicals. Consequently, we require more antioxidants to repair the damage done. Recognizing the important role antioxidants play in brain function, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has conducted many studies on the abilities of different antioxidants to improve brain function.
Thompson said USDA studies of some of the most well-known antioxidant-laden foods, such as walnuts, blackberries and grape juice, can produce a 20 percent improvement in memory. By comparison, the improvement witnessed in the University of Texas at Dallas study indicated that a synergy of ingredients were at work in NeuroBright.
Most people do not consume the optimum amount of antioxidants in their diets. Those who don’t may take nutritional supplements containing antioxidants to compensate. But this alone may not be sufficient, Thompson said.
“The study showed that combining Microhydrin with these other antioxidants produced a significant benefit above what supplementing with antioxidants alone produced,” he said.

25 Ways to Get Healthy
Cudos to my good friend Linda Cruciano for putting this great list together.
25 WAYS TO GET HEALTHY
#1 - Replace sodas/soft drinks with good water.
#2 - Commit to eating one raw fruit (or serving of vegetables) at every meal. Take Microhydrin daily with your cooked food to replace the electrons lost in cooking.
#3 - Add just 5 minutes a day to your exercise routine. Don't have an exercise routine? Start with 5 minutes a day!
#4 - Get more sunshine! Just 15-20 minutes a day.
#5 - Learn some Pilates. It's GREAT for core strength and flexibility. Live near water? Learn to paddleboard.
#6 - Drink a SPIRULINA superfood smoothie every day or take tablets equal to 2 tablespoons)
#7 - Buy more indoor plants: They purify the air in your home.
#8 - Take a quality, DHA supplement called IQ.
#9 - Eat more high-protein, "grains", SPIRULINA, and less red meat. Any time you do eat meat take extra DIGESTIVE FORMULA to speed the digestion process.
#10 - When you get out of bed each morning, do five sit-ups first. It sounds simple, but just 5 sit-ups a day can make a difference.
#11 - Instead of trying to find a parking spot so close to the grocery store, park farther away. You'll get a little more walking exercise and a little more sunshine.
#12 - Get HYDRACEL AND SANGO CORAL CALCIUM so you can drink HEALTHY WATER.
#13 - Pick up a "gentle" art like Tai-Chi or Yoga. It will reduce your stress and improve your physical stamina.
#14 - Take a relaxing hot bath with epsom salts and soothing herbs like lavender. (MICROHYDRIN SALTS) It will do wonders for your mind and your muscles.
#15 - Get a professional massage! Massage therapy is really healthy, and it's a great way to reward yourself for some of the other accomplishments you're making.
#16 - Grow your own sprouts! With a simple, low-cost sprouting machine, you can grow and eat your own sprouts. Eating just one ounce of sprouts a day can have a huge impact on supporting and balancing immune function. Or you can take GREEN PHYTO POWER every day in your Super Shake. When your immune system is weakened you need Immune 360.
#17 - Prepare for a Spring garden. Sure, it's cold right now, but make a commitment to start a garden this Spring, and you'll reap many health benefits in the months ahead. PHYTO POWER is loaded with green phytonutrients.
#18 - Get a mini-trampoline and do some rebounding in your living room. You can even watch a DVD at the same time.
#19 - Make a point to get at least eight hours of sleep for 2-3 nights a week (or more, if you can). Most people are sleep deprived, and the health cost is enormous.
#20 - Start visiting local farmer's markets so that you eat more local food in 2010. You'll be healthier and happier as a result.Be sure and take 24 SEVEN to fill in the gaps.
#21 - Got a job you don't like? Downgrade your lifestyle to live on less money, then pursue what you really enjoy. Being happy in a small house is better than being miserable in a big one. Commit to a minimum of 10 hours each week to building your fortune with RBC Life.
#22 - If possible, get off those medications!
Make a point to learn how to safely and gradually get yourself off all the medications you can by eliminating underlying imbalances or illnesses. The fewer medications you take, the healthier you'll be! Start first by giving your cells all the nourishment they need with the Health giving Super Foods in RBC Life.
#23 - Turn off your television! Read more books and listen to peaceful music.
#24 - Make a decision to think of food as nourishment instead of entertainment. Eat what your body needs, not what your taste buds desire. In other words cut down on the calories. You can receive the nourishment you need on RBC products. Most of us are eating for pleasure. Eat smaller portions. Share a single meal with another person.
#25 - Teach others how to be healthy with our RBC products! The more you talk with others about healthy habits, the more you'll follow them yourself.
******feel like you really just blew it? Get over it! It is only one day, don't give up, everyday is a new start. Strive everyday to be better than the previous day.
Thanks Linda this was a great recap,
Until next time,
