Pre-clinical Trials
Researchers demonstrated in pre-clinical models that by increasing the supply of certain nutrients, the synthesis of phospholipids and neuronal membranes can be increased. Those nutrients were also shown to increase dendritic spines, synaptic proteins and neurite outgrowth, all prerequisites for synapse formation, as well as neurotransmission. The greatest effects were observed when combinations of nutrients were used. Administration of specific nutrients was also shown to improve learning and memory in preclinical models. These research findings provided the scientific rationale for the formulation of Souvenaid.

Famous quotes containing the word trials:
“On the whole, yes, I would rather be the Chief Justice of the United States, and a quieter life than that which becomes at the White House is more in keeping with the temperament, but when taken into consideration that I go into history as President, and my children and my children’s children are the better placed on account of that fact, I am inclined to think that to be President well compensates one for all the trials and criticisms he has to bear and undergo.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
