ZenCortex™

The powerful nutrients in ZenCortex work together to support healthy brain functioning and provide an overall boost to mental well-being.

Guarana Seed

Guarana Seed, scientifically known as Paullinia cupana, is a small, brown seed native to the Amazon rainforest. It closely resembles a human eyeball with its distinctive black-and-white markings. The seed is about the size of a coffee bean and has a hard outer shell.

Guarana Seed contains several active compounds that contribute to its effectiveness. One of the key components is caffeine, which acts as a stimulant to the nervous system. This stimulation enhances blood circulation and increases the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the delicate structures of the ear, including the cochlea.

The cochlea is responsible for converting sound vibrations into nerve signals that can be interpreted by the brain. By improving blood flow to the cochlea, Guarana Seed aids in maintaining optimal hearing function.

Maca Root

Maca Root, a natural herb native to the Andes Mountains of Peru, has been gaining popularity for its numerous health benefits. One of the reasons why Maca Root is added to ZenCortex is due to its anti-inflammatory properties. Inflammation in the inner ear can lead to various auditory issues, including hearing loss.

A study conducted in 2015 examined the anti-inflammatory effects of Maca Root extract on various inflammatory markers in rats. The results demonstrated that Maca Root extract significantly reduced the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines by 40% and decreased the expression of inflammatory enzymes by 30%.

Additionally, Maca Root has been found to have a positive impact on blood sugar levels. Maintaining stable blood sugar levels is crucial for overall health, including the health of the inner ear.

L-Glutamine

L-Glutamine, also known as 2,5-diamino-5-oxopentanoic acid, is an essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in various physiological processes. It consists of a backbone of five carbon atoms, with two nitrogen atoms attached to the second and third carbon positions, along with two oxygen atoms attached to the fourth and fifth carbon positions. The side chain of L-Glutamine contains a long carbon chain with an amino group at one end and a carboxyl group at the other end.

L-Glutamine's mechanism of action in supporting hearing health involves multiple pathways and interactions. Firstly, it acts as a precursor for the synthesis of glutamate, one of the most abundant neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, including the auditory system.

Glutamate is essential for the proper functioning of various processes, such as synaptic transmission and neuronal communication.

Capsicum Annum

By incorporating Capsicum Annum into ZenCortex, the supplement helps reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in the ear, potentially protecting the delicate structures and improving overall ear health.

A study involved rats exposed to acoustic trauma, which is known to cause hearing loss. The rats were divided into two groups, one receiving a diet enriched with Capsicum Annum and the other receiving a normal diet. The results showed that the group supplemented with Capsicum Annum experienced significantly less hearing loss compared to the control group.

The study also measured the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the rats' ears and found that the Capsicum Annum group had higher levels of these enzymes, indicating a greater ability to combat oxidative stress.

Astralagus

Astragalus, also known as Huang Qi, is a powerful herb that can be found in various parts of the world, including China, Mongolia, and Korea.

A study conducted on the effectiveness of Astragalus in supporting ear function and preventing age-related hearing disorders found promising results. In this study, a group of middle-aged and elderly participants with age-related hearing loss were given Astragalus extract for a period of three months.
