Groundbreaking Clinical Study Confirms BrainPhyt™’s Cognitive Benefits in Humans

The positive benefits of BrainPhyt™ on cognitive function are supported by rigorous, peer-reviewed science. Most notably, a clinical study conducted on older adults has confirmed its neuroprotective and cognitive-enhancing benefits, with results published in the prestigious journal Nutrients. Additionally, a preclinical study on mice, published in Marine Drugs, provides further insights into the product’s mechanisms. These publications underscore the efficacy of BrainPhyt, a standardized extract derived from the microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum, on cognitive funtion.

Recent study demonstrates BrainPhyt’s cognitive benefits in a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial

The study was conducted on 43 healthy individuals between 55 and 75 years old, with age-related cognitive decline, to evaluate the effects of BrainPhyt™ on cognitive function.

The collected data is highly promising, and supports the benefits of BrainPhyt, a fucoxanthin-rich microalgae extract from Phaeodactylum tricornutum, on cognitive function in humans. This unique and sustainable alternative shows great potential in field of dietary supplements, offering a compelling option for improving working and secondary memory, vigilance, attention, accuracy and executive function.

The results also suggest that BrainPhyt may help slow cognitive decline in healthy, older adults.

BrainPhyt was shown to:

• Enhanced Cognitive Function: Participants showed significant improvements in working and episodic memory, reaction times, attention, vigilance, and executive function after supplementing with BrainPhyt.

• Improved Insulin Sensitivity: BrainPhyt supplementation increased insulin sensitivity, which is associated with maintaining cognitive health and preventing neurodegenerative diseases.

• Better Sleep Quality: Participants reported significant improvements in sleep, including increased calmness, ease of awakening, and better alertness upon waking. This positive impact on sleep may contribute to BrainPhyt’s cognitive benefits.

• No Adverse Side Effects: The study found no negative effects on clinical blood markers, demonstrating the safety of fucoxanthin supplementation.

Preclinical Research Unveils the Unique Mechanism of Action of the Microalgae Extract

Recent preclinical research on BrainPhyt explores its potential to protect against cognitive decline. Using a mice model where aging was accelerated by D-galactose exposure, the study evaluates BrainPhyt’s effects on memory, oxidative stress, and inflammation markers.

The results showed that BrainPhyt provided protection against memory and behaviorial issues caused by D-galactose, with effects found to be dose-dependent. This study highlights the positive impact of BrainPhyt on spatial working memory and short-term memory in the context of accelerated aging. These findings align with previous research demonstrating neuroprotective effects of Phaeodactylum tricornutum extracts. Remarkably, BrainPhyt™ demonstrated cognitive improvements compared to the control group across all measured endpoints in the study.

Biochemical analyses further support these results, showing positive effects on oxidative stress, including reduced levels of lipid peroxidation in both the brain and plasma. Additionally, inflammatory markers such as TNF-α and IL-6 were reduced in groups receiving BrainPhyt™.

The regulation of oxidative stress and inflammatory pathways appears central to BrainPhyt’s cognitive benefits. These promising results reveal the complementary mechanisms by which this unique microalgae extract provides neuroprotective benefits.

A groundbreaking ingredient, subject of numerous scientific studies

The microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum is also the focus of several other clinical studies across various health domains:

• Another RDBPC clinical trial on 66 older adults with mild age-related cognitive decline has shown positive effects on cognitive function over a six-month period (pending publication).
• Another study explored cognitive performance enhancement in a younger population, showing improvement in memory, accuracy and sustained attention
• Additionally, a different study investigated various parameters related to physical well-being, with a specific focus on women’s health.
