8 benefits mapped to clinical evidence across supplements.
Benefit Evidence
Research sources
Brain health (2)
- BT-11 is effective for enhancing cognitive functions in the elderly humans
PubMed ID: 19699261
Elderly RCT showing broad cognitive improvements supports overall brain health/wellness.
- [Effects of polygala on the neurogenesis of manganese poisoned mice]
PubMed ID: 25916449
Animal evidence of increased neurogenesis (DCX) and behavioral recovery after toxin exposure supports neurorestorative effects.
Learning (2)
- BT-11 is effective for enhancing cognitive functions in the elderly humans
PubMed ID: 19699261
Improved constructional recall and praxis and word list performance in older adults indicate enhanced learning-related abilities.
- [Effects of polygala on the neurogenesis of manganese poisoned mice]
PubMed ID: 25916449
Mice showed faster learning in maze (decreased escape latency), indicating enhanced learning in an animal model.
Memory (2)
- [Effects of polygala on the neurogenesis of manganese poisoned mice]
PubMed ID: 25916449
Mice showed reduced escape latency and increased platform crossings in maze tasks, indicating improved spatial memory.
- BT-11 is effective for enhancing cognitive functions in the elderly humans
PubMed ID: 19699261
Marked improvement in word list recognition and constructional recall in elderly trial directly supports recall enhancement.
Nerve health (1)
- [Effects of polygala on the neurogenesis of manganese poisoned mice]
PubMed ID: 25916449
In mice, polygala increased DCX expression (neurogenesis) after manganese exposure, indicating direct effects on neuronal health/repair.
Endurance (1)
- BT-11 is effective for enhancing cognitive functions in the elderly humans
PubMed ID: 19699261
Sustained cognitive improvements across multiple domains in older adults suggest enhanced cognitive endurance/stamina.
Focus & concentration (1)
- BT-11 is effective for enhancing cognitive functions in the elderly humans
PubMed ID: 19699261
Overall cognitive gains in elderly are consistent with improved attentional resources, though attention was not the primary endpoint.
Healthy aging (1)
- BT-11 is effective for enhancing cognitive functions in the elderly humans
PubMed ID: 19699261
Randomized elderly trial (BT-11) produced significant improvements in CERAD total and memory domains relevant to cognitive aging.
Mental clarity (1)
- BT-11 is effective for enhancing cognitive functions in the elderly humans
PubMed ID: 19699261
Elderly participants showed broad cognitive gains (CERAD and specific tasks) consistent with improved mental clarity.
