- Focus and Concentration. By modulating acetylcholine levels, it may contribute to improved focus and concentration. It is often used by individuals seeking to improve mental clarity and staying alert during demanding cognitive tasks.
- Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). Huperzine A has been studied for its potential to modulate nerve growth factor (NGF), a protein essential for the growth of new nerve cells.
- Neuroprotective. The HupA supplement may help protect nerve cells from oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and excitotoxicity. The exhibited neuroprotective properties suggests it may help in slowing the progression of neurodegenerative conditions.
