To promote cognitive function, recommend Cognizin.*
Cognizin® is a patented form of citicoline, the brain-health nutrient known to increase neurotransmitter levels, mental energy and cell membrane integrity.* This neural activity supports concentration, focus and recall, which provides your patients with an effective way to promote cognitive functioning as they age.* Cognizin is also pure, vegetarian and allergen-free. When patients need to stay alert and focused throughout the day and combat the normal effects of aging on cognition, recommend supplements containing Cognizin.*

Liposomal 1,500 mg Vitamin C & R-Lipoic AcidHigh Absorption, No Stomach DistressEach serving contains 1500 mg of Vitamin C and 70 mg of R-Lipoic Acid in a natural, GMO-free liposomal preparation. As most oral Vitamin C doses above 250 mg are very poorly absorbed, the only efficacious high dose oral delivery system is via liposomes from natural phosphatidyl choline. Many doctors supplement in-office Vitamin C drips with C-RLA™ so the patients continue to receive the benefit of high-dose Vitamin C without stomach distress.
Power-packed AntioxidantHigh dose Vitamin C plus pure R-Lipoic Acid provides unparalleled antioxidant support.* R-Lipoic Acid, the “mitochondrial antioxidant”, promotes healthy levels of oxidative stress & mitochondrial energy producing capability.*
