What This Product Is

PS 150 features 150 mg of non-soy, sunflower-sourced phosphatidylserine (PS) per capsule. Phosphatidylserine is a nutrient that is essential for supporting optimal brain function. There are no foods rich in phosphatidylserine; therefore, supplementation is the only way to support healthy levels of this valuable brain nutrient. The body can make phosphatidylserine, but in far from ideal quantities, and natural production of PS decreases as we age.*

Brain function is at its peak in the 20s and then naturally declines throughout the rest of life. In the 40s, many people begin to notice subtle changes in cognition and memory. This decline may be caused by the depletion of nutrients that help maintain the integrity of the membrane of brain cells, the cell's protective outer layer. Phosphatidylserine works by rejuvenating and strengthening this membrane, which helps support brain function and may help with absent-mindedness that can result from the normal aging process.*

Mechanism of Action

Neuron Communication and Memory

Memories are formed when brain cells called neurons communicate with each other. Together, neurons create a memory of an event. In order for memories to be formed and recalled, neurons must be able to communicate with each other effectively. PS allows neurons to communicate effectively; without it, such communication among neurons may not be optimal. By supporting neuron membrane integrity, PS promotes the formation and recall of memories.*

Cortisol and Stress Response Normalization

Cortisol, the “fight or flight” hormone, is released in high amounts in response to stressful situations, whether they are physical, mental, or emotional. Phosphatidylserine promotes healthy hormone levels by helping to normalize cortisol levels when the body is under stress. Its calming effect on stress may also help to support a healthy immune system.*

Testosterone Balance During Exercise

PS supports normal testosterone levels. During intense exercise (where cortisol levels naturally rise), the testosterone-to-cortisol ratio tends to fluctuate because high cortisol levels impair the production of testosterone. PS supplementation helps promote a healthy hormonal balance for those engaging in rigorous exercise.*

Applications

• Individuals seeking brain function and memory support during the aging process*

• Those experiencing occasional absent-mindedness or cognitive changes*

• Athletes and exercisers wanting to normalize cortisol and support testosterone levels during intense training*

• Individuals under chronic stress seeking healthy cortisol level support*

• Those wanting a non-soy, sunflower-sourced phosphatidylserine supplement*

Key Ingredients / Formula Highlights

150 mg Sunflower-Sourced Phosphatidylserine

Non-soy, sunflower-sourced PS for allergen-friendly supplementation. Essential brain cell membrane nutrient. Supports neuron communication and memory. Promotes healthy cortisol normalization.*

Brain-Targeted Nutrient

Available as PHS060 (60 capsules). Supplementation addresses the body's declining PS production with age. No dietary sources provide adequate PS levels.*

Suggested Use

Take 1 capsule per day, or as directed by your health-care practitioner. As with any brain-energizing nutrient, phosphatidylserine is best avoided near bedtime as it may interfere with falling asleep.

Product Questions

Why is supplementation important for phosphatidylserine?

There are no foods rich in phosphatidylserine, making supplementation the only way to support healthy levels. While the body can produce PS, it does so in far from ideal quantities, and natural production decreases with age. This makes supplementation particularly important for supporting brain function and memory as we age.*

How does PS 150 differ from Phosphatidylcholine?

PS 150 provides phosphatidylserine, which is specifically targeted for brain function, memory, neuron communication, and cortisol normalization. Phosphatidylcholine is primarily targeted for liver health, cell membrane integrity throughout the body, acetylcholine production, and fat metabolism. Both are phospholipids essential for cell membrane health, but they serve different primary functions. PS 150 is ideal for brain and cognitive support, while Phosphatidylcholine is ideal for liver and whole-body cell membrane support.*

Who may benefit most from PS 150?

Individuals noticing age-related changes in memory or cognitive function, those under chronic stress who may benefit from cortisol normalization, athletes engaging in intense exercise who want to support healthy testosterone-to-cortisol ratios, and anyone seeking a non-soy, sunflower-sourced brain-support nutrient.*
