Ceraplex (Procera Protect)

One of the best kept secrets about the human anatomy is the brain. We all know we have one and we know we use it, but how it actually works is still a mystery, although new research is getting closer to unlocking some of that mystery. It makes sense that the more we use our brains the stronger it gets and studies have indicated that is indeed the case, but as we get older some of the functions of the brain are not as active as they once were. We look for help from an external source hoping that a supplement will save us from the darkness of senility. There are plenty of supplements in the marketplace that say they can help.

Brain Research Laboratories was founded by Drs. Reynolds and Heller. Dr. Reynolds has studied the brain and it cognitive performance for years, and Dr. Heller is an Emeritus Clinical Professor at UCLA and a board certified Internist. They have developed several different products to improve brain function and Ceraplex is one of them. Ceraplex as BRL describes it, is an antioxidant that helps detoxify the brain and protects it from free radicals, neuro-toxins and inflammation. It is made with all natural ingredients which are considered safe and effective. The question is how effective and what are they effective doing in the brain?

Ceraplex Ingredients

Ceraplex contains six ingredients:

  • R Alpha Lipoic Acid which helps fortify mitochondria and it increases energy levels.
  • Resveratrol which helps the immune system function in the aging process.
  • Curcumin which also have a positive impact on the immune system.
  • Quercetin is known for its ability to improve the immune system.
  • Methylcobalamin or vitamin B12 does help the memory when it is combined with other ingredients not listed here.
  • Ginkgo Biloba which carries oxygen to the small blood vessels in the brain.

*All individuals are unique. Your results can and will vary.

Ceraplex Cost

Brain Research laboratories sells Ceraplex on the company website for $29.95 a bottle plus shipping and handling. A bottle can be purchase and then return within thirty days for a credit.

Does Ceraplex Work?

Ceraplex does have ingredients that can boost the immune system and control inflammation and improve the blood flow to the brain. Those qualities will help anyone feel better and may even increase energy levels. As far as improving memory functions and increasing the ability to focus, there is not enough information to give Ceraplex a high grade.

Even BRL advocates taking Ceraplex with another one of their products to address those issues. Constant Focus is a brain support supplement that has been proven to have a dramatic effect on focus and memory loss. Constant Focus is the supplement of choice.

*All individuals are unique. Your results can and will vary.

Review after review states that Constant Focus works when it comes to giving individuals more mental clarity to complete daily tasks. Ceraplex may work as an antioxidant, but it appears it needs some support from another supplement to complete other important jobs.

    Constant Focus

    A kitchen-sink herbal focus supplement combining many cognitive-support botanicals and nutrients. Some individual ingredients (Bacopa, huperzine A) have supporting data, but the proprietary blend itself is not clinically validated.

    Focus Factor

    One of America's best-known brain supplements for ~20 years. Essentially a multivitamin blended with common nootropic add-ins (DMAE, bacopa, ginkgo, phosphatidylserine). Popular and inexpensive, but the cognitive ingredients are under-dosed and clinical evidence for measurable benefit is thin.

    HGH Factor

    An oral 'HGH releaser' built on amino acids (arginine, glutamine, ornithine) claimed to prompt natural growth-hormone production as a safer alternative to injections. Evidence is weak: amino-acid secretagogues need very high doses to affect HGH, and no rigorous data support this product's claims.

    Neuro Clarity

    An inexpensive OTC herbal-and-amino-acid nootropic blend built around St. John's Wort, DMAE and botanical extracts. Affordable and widely sold, but relies on a modest proprietary blend with limited clinical backing at the doses used. St. John's Wort also carries notable drug-interaction risk.

    Adderall

    A prescription central-nervous-system stimulant of mixed amphetamine salts approved for ADHD and narcolepsy. Strongly evidence-backed for its indications but carries abuse, dependence and cardiovascular risks; not a supplement.
