BENEFITS OF NOOPEPT
INCREASES LEVELS OF BDNF & NGF
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a protein that supports the survival of existing neurons, and promotes the growth and differentiation of new neurons and synapses. It’s primarily active in the hippocampus, cortex, and basal forebrain — regions of the brain heavily impacting learning, memory, and higher thinking.
Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) is another neurotrophic factor, similar to BDNF, that impacts the growth, maintenance, and survival of nerve cells, including neurons (brain cells). NGF also plays a big role in neurogenesis — the creation of new neurons.
Animal studies have found that Noopept is able to stimulate the expression of these two highly important brain-boosting chemicals.
ENHANCES MEMORY AND LEARNING
Seeing as noopept increases the activity of both NGF and BDNF — two neurotrophic factors involved in the health and survival of neurons, it comes as little surprise that is supports memory and learning. Similar to piracetam, Noopept aids memory formation, but it also has data indicating it may enhance memory consolidation and retrieval, too.
Much of the memory-enhancing research on Noopept have been conducted in patients with brain damage or cognitive decline, including age-related neurodegeneration, stroke, and alcohol-related brain damage.
More research is needed investigating the effects of Noopept in healthy populations, but anecdotal reports indicate that Noopept is beneficial for those looking to improve cognitive performance.
NEUROPROTECTIVE
Oxidative stress and neuroinflammation are closely linked to age-related cognitive decline and neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease.
Additionally, chronic systemic inflammation mediates age-related cognitive deficits, including loss of short-term memory, verbal proficiency, learning and executive function.[9,10] Noopept possesses both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties which may help combat oxidative damage induced by free radicals.
Moreover, Noopept also helps protect neurons by improving cerebral blood flow and inhibiting neurotoxicity induced by excess glutamate and calcium.
STRESS & ANXIETY SUPPORT
Stress and anxiety levels are at an all-time high these days, with many turning to potentially hazardous chemicals (drugs, alcohol, etc.) for relief. Animal studies suggest that Noopept may help significantly lower anxiety levels.
Additionally, one human study noted that individuals who took 10 mg of Noopept twice daily experienced a reduction in anxiety.
