In an innovative study that is sure to initiate further research, matured laboratory rats that consumed a diet loaded in the acai berry compound pterostilbene performed superior than those in the collection of animals that did not eat the enriched acai berry diet.

Pterostilbene inverted quantifiable harmful things that cause aging on brain function and behavioral performance.

The study was broken down into two sections which could if pterostilbene was actually effective in reversing the age of the mature rats.

The initial element of the study tested seven stilbene compounds in cell cultures and established that pterostilbene was the most efficient at preventing oxidative stress.

For the subsequent measurement of the study, they fed elderly rats one of the following criteria: a control diet or a control adjusted diet to comprise of either small or high concentrations of pterostilbene.

The results were that the mature rats who had high doses of pterostilbene were successful in turning back aging symptoms such as a decline in cognitive skills as well as improved memory skills that were all linked to the compound pterostilbene.

The research is just the latest in a series of test that is looking into various associations to nutrition and declining brain functions.

On top of acai berry, there are additional berry compounds showing parallel potential- this will continue to be examined in further animal and cell studies at a latter time.

Like vitamin C, the body can only absorb so much at a time-At the current time, there are no standards set forth by any governmental agencies on what is the recommended amount for humans to take-It is recommended to start with small quantities first to see how your body reacts.
