"Clinically shown to restore the memory power you had 10-15 years ago."
Acetylcholine and Oxygen Transport Technology- Memory
- Focus
- Mental Clarity
- Mood
Procera AVH® is a proprietary, patent pending, nutritional supplement that was clinically tested and shown to help improve memory, focus, mental clarity, and even mood. Procera AVH®'s double-blind, placebo controlled University Clinical trial was conducted at the Brain Sciences Institute in Australia.
Procera AVH®'s natural ingredients are supported by over 20 years of clinical study and use. Its unique triple-action can help improve the brain's use of exygen, glucose and acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter for improved brain function.
BREAKTHROUGH SCIENCE IN BRAIN HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE
Studies now show by the age of 40, on average, we have already lost well over 30% of our brainpower, and by age 50-55 up to 50%... that's half your memory, focus, and mental quickness hone. It doesn't have to be this way! Procera AVH® was clinically shown to help restore the memory and brain power you had 10-15 years ago.
HOW PROCERA AVH® WORKS- STEP 1: Oxygenates brain cells to revitalize your mind.
- STEP 2. Restores your depleted neurotransmitters with vital nutrients for a sharper brain.
- STEP 3. Protects your brain against free radicals from stress and toxins.

High-Flavanol Cocoa Linked to Better Memory
High-Flavanol Cocoa Linked to Better Memory
A daily dose of high-flavanol cocoa gave seniors with mild memory loss a boost in memory and languageA study in Hypertension found that a daily dose of high-flavanol cocoa gave seniors with mild memory loss a boost in memory and language.
In this study, researchers explored the effects of flavanol-rich cocoa on brain function in 90 adults (ages 64 to 82) with mild memory loss. The participants were randomly assigned to a high-flavanol (990 mg flavanols), intermediate-flavanol (520 mg flavanols), or low-flavanol (45 mg flavanols) cocoa drink, daily for 8 weeks. Brain function was tested at baseline and after the intervention to assess for memory-related factors such as attention, recall, language, and time to complete a given task.
Results showed the high- and intermediate-flavanol groups completed an assigned task by as much as 35 seconds earlier compared with the low-flavanol group. The high-flavanol cocoa drink also performed better in the verbal fluency test compared with the low-flavanol group (speaking about 28 versus 22 words per 60 seconds). In addition, insulin resistance, blood pressure, and lipid peroxidation (a chemical reaction that leads to the formation of cell-damaging free radicals) significantly decreased in the high- and intermediate-flavanols groups.
The study authors note that improved brain function was associated with a reduced insulin resistance and that better blood sugar (glucose) regulation may help recover brain function. The authors comment that "the regular dietary inclusion of flavanols could be one element of a dietary approach to maintaining and improving not only cardiovascular health but also specifically brain health." They also note that further studies on the role of cocoa in brain function are warranted.
Feeding the brain
Increasing research shows that what we eat and drink definitely affects our brain as well as our body. Here are some additional brain-feeding foods to keep in mind while grocery shopping:
Whole foods. Buy nutrient-rich vegetables, fruits, and whole grains that have not been processed, as highly processed foods are often low in nutrients, rich in calories, and high in fat and sugar. They are also more likely to contain preservatives and additives such as chemicals and dyes that can hurt brain health.
Low-sugar items. Remember that many types of cocoa and chocolate products are often high in sugar and can worsen health over time. The products used in this study were rich in flavanols, which are plant chemicals with health-giving properties. High blood sugar has been linked to poor health in general and to poor brain health. Just as excess sugar is bad for the rest of the body it also hurts the brain. Eating low or no sugar foods and saving sugary treats for special occasions may help preserve brain function.
Power nutrients. Specific nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids have been linked to better brain health for the young and the old. Fatty fish, such as salmon and mackerel, is a good source of omega-3s. In addition, the study authors comment that the B vitamins, vitamins D and E, and choline, have also been linked to improved brain function. But it is important to remember that any one particular nutrient or food by itself won't fully protect your brain. It's eating a balanced diet with a variety of nutrients that may help protect your memory in the long run.

Comments about Procera AVH® Memory:
This has been a lifesaver for me! I had a stroke and it damaged the part of my brain for memory! I saw this product in the monthly GNC book and I thought I would just try it to see if by chance it could help! Thank God it was a true miracle for me! I pray I never have to be without it! Within the first couple of days I noticed there was a huge difference! I take it every day without fail! If I happen to miss a day I can definitely tell a difference! It not only helps with my memory but also with mood. I have high blood pressure and it does not affect it at all (in fact since I have been taking this my doctor can't believe how my pressure has stabilized)! GNC please always carry this product! It rates an A+ in my world!!!!!!!!!!
