The Brain at a glance:

The brain is the center of the nervous system and therefore the control tower of our body.

Up to 100 billion nerve cells or neurons communicate with each other continuously through electrical and chemical signals (neurotransmitters) that carry nerve impulses into the neuronal membrane. These are assembled into networks, much like interconnected microcomputers, and their point of contact, where the information or nervous message passes, is called the synapse.

It is thanks to this neural network that we can walk, think, speak, store information in the form of memory, that our five senses, our consciousness, our reflexes, our emotions, our biological clock or our vegetative functions ( breathing, heart rate ...), and that we receive sensory information.

The degradation of brain functions will therefore cause a progressive physical decline. Taking care of our brain is caring for our body.

How is the Brain protected ?

The brain benefits from three protection systems:

• Cranial bones: they form a first solid shell
• The meninges: three in number, they are a barrier to infection
• The cerebrospinal fluid: constantly renewed, it has a protective role, ensures constant pressure inside the skull and takes care of evacuation of waste.

How does the brain feed itself? :

The brain uses 20% of the total energy of the body, whereas it represents only 2% of the body weight. It draws this energy mainly in the form of sugar (glucose) and oxygen, minerals and other nutrients that it can draw from the cerebrospinal fluid in which it bathes, but also that it receives through the blood via the blood vessels.

Degeneration of the brain, the main causes:

• Increased exposure to chemicals through food or the environment and the resulting accumulation of waste
• Diabetes and high blood pressure
• Certain beta-blocking drugs, anxiolytics, analgesics ...
• Lack of sleep because it affects the nervous system
• The lengthening of the life span ... although nowadays, memory deficits and cognitive disorders can appear at the age of 45 years.

The risks :

Brain aging, either premature or "normal", can lead to more or less serious dysfunctions: memory loss, cognitive disorders, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, depression, epilepsy, anxiety ....

From the angle of the Unani Tradition:

• Each organ has an ideal operating temperature. The brain has the lowest operating temperature, 35.5 ° to 36 °. Minor changes in this temperature lead to significant variations in neuronal cell metabolism and hence brain function.
• There is an ideal composition of organic liquids in which the cells bathe which allows an optimal functioning of the organs and consequently of the body. Anything that causes a qualitative change in these liquids poses a health threat.
• Industrial food, increased consumption of chemical sugars, pollution and stress encourage the formation of a surplus of waste that can not always be evacuated by cerebrospinal fluid or blood flow. This creates over time a change in the optimal functioning conditions of the brain. The vascularization and oxygenation of the brain, the plasticity of the neuronal membrane, the synthesis of neurotransmitters, the communication between the inner environment of the neuron and its extracellular environment, are altered.

Reasons to hope:

• Neurogenesis: Although it is true that the largest quantities of neurons are formed at the time of embryonic development, we now know that new neurons and therefore new neural networks can be formed in adulthood.
• Prevention: It is very effective and goes through a good diet, physical activity, mental activity (crosswords, Scrabble, learning ...), social and emotional relations, positive emotions ...
• The beneficial power of plants: Plants have always been used for their anti-oxidant, "anti-aging" and preventive properties of certain pathologies due to cerebral aging.

Action of 
Cognicil: Improves the memory, the concentration and cognitive functions; Regulates the mood.

Entirely composed of plants, Cognicil:

• Helps with the vascularization and oxygenation of the brain
• Associated with a healthy lifestyle, it lowers the risk of stroke and Alzheimer's disease
• Tempers cold humors that clogs the body and reach to the brain
• Facilitates the evacuation of waste.
