Vinpocetine

Prevent blocked brain arteries with Vinpocetine. Vinpocetine treats and prevents strokes, senile dementia and memory disturbances by improving brain blood flow

Vinpocetine is a vasodilator (improves brain blood flow) that, uniquely for this type of drug, affects only the areas that need to treating. This action has lead to Vinpocetine being used to improve hearing (particularly tinnitus), eyesight and even alleviate problems related to the menopause.

Clinical research indicates that Vinpocetine has a positive effect upon damaged areas of the brain and raises brain energy levels. But perhaps most importantly, Vinpocetine can protect against brain arteriosclerosis, which if left unchecked, can lead to strokes.

The condition of the heart's arteries is a familiar concern of many people. The brain, however, where their capillaries and arteries are at their thinnest, is a prime target for the occurrence of arteriosclerosis. Vinpocetine is also known to be an anti-oxidant, and in this way may further protect the brain from aging.

Dosage: Take one 5mg tablet two or three times daily (up to two tablets, three times daily for treatments).

Caution: At higher dosages, seek your physicians advice if combining with potent vasodilators such as ginkgo biloba, Hydergine, Nicergoline, Picamilone, or Xanthinol Nicotinate.
