Evidence-informed picks for nervous system support — July spotlight  ✨  
  
This month, we’re highlighting 3 supplements that contribute to a healthy nervous system. Here’s what the science says:    
  
🔹 Citicoline (500 mg/day for 12 weeks) improved memory performance in older adults with age-associated memory concerns — and was well tolerated.    
📖 Study link  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33978188/     
  
🔹 Citicoline + NMN showed promising synergistic effects in a vascular dementia model — enhancing memory, reducing neuroinflammation, and protecting white matter via the SIRT1/TORC1/CREB pathway.    
📖 Study link https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11407720/     
  
🔹 Sublingual methylcobalamin effectively corrected B12 deficiency in T2D patients on metformin — even outperforming IM injections for raising B12 at 3 months.

What are reishi broken-cell wall spores? Reishi spores are the microscopic reproductive units of the 𝘎𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘢 𝘭𝘶𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘶𝘮 mushroom, released once the fruiting body reaches maturity. 🍄  
  
For optimal absorption and efficacy of the nutrients and bioactives, spores are typically “cracked” or “broken” to rupture the dual-layered spore wall. Compared to the fruiting body, the spores have higher concentrations of triterpenoids and essential fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid. 🧬
