ALCAR has the ability to cross the blood–brain barrier and get to the brain blood circulation, where it acts as a powerful antioxidant,[14] which helps in prevention of the brain cells' deterioration. Its supplementation has been shown to be neuroprotective in instances of cerebral ischemia in rats[15] and may be useful in treating peripheral nerve injury as well as spinal cord injury.[16][17] It may have some neuroprotective benefit in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, but further research is required.[18] ALCAR is also known to increase sperm motility,[19] which describes the ability of sperm to move vigorously. Since motility is among the most important factors that help in the determination of sperm’s fertilization capability, acetyl-L-carnitine can help sperm cells move more actively, which consequently leads to the improved male fertility.
Vinpocetine is reported to have cerebral blood-flow enhancing[2] and neuroprotective
effects,[3] and is used as a drug in Eastern Europe for the treatment of cerebrovascular disorders and age-related memory impairment.[4] Vinpocetine is widely marketed as a supplement for vasodilation and as a nootropic for the improvement of memory. In other words, Vinpocetine may help support brain functions such as concentration and memory by activating cerebral metabolism. A small subset of users report uncomfortable, adverse reactions to vinpocetine. A low initial dosage is ordinarily recommended.
Huperzine A is also an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, which has a mechanism of action similar to donepezil, rivastigmine, and galantamine. A pro-drug form of huperzine A (ZT-1) is under development as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease.[3] In the US, huperzine A is sold as a dietary supplement for memory support. The botanical has been used in China for centuries for the treatment of swelling, fever and blood disorders. Clinical trials in China have shown it to be effective in improving cognitive performance in patients with Alzheimer's disease[4] and enhancing memory in students.[5]

What if what you constitute as opinions are really facts. Also, why did you avoid the big and pertinent questions I posed. You knocked the "Procera AVH", without any kind of scientific data or evidence debunking it's ingredients, which are listed. Secondly I posted two links on the last page that discussed admitted links between vaccines and autism.
As I said earlier, the website contains very little in the form of clinical trial evidence but a whole bunch of testimonials. Huge red flag for me.
On digging a bit more I discovered that their "clinical trial" was conducted in house, has not been peer reviewed and has not been submitted to any scientific journals. Essentially it's an in-depth testimonial.
Again, reading around it seems like it doesn't really work either.

The person who was the lead of the monkey study has now left Pittsburgh (in shame) as she had a conflict of interests...
leftbrainrightbrain.co.uk...
In the second link the boy had an underlying mitochondrial disorder so whilst it's entirely possible that the vaccine triggered the onset of his autism that's very different from saying that the jab CAUSED it. If the vaccine hadn't triggered it something else, like a cold or flu could have. Who's to know?

LOL, you take quotes from Kevin Leech's blog and expect me to take you seriously? Is Kevin still trying to train his daughter like a monkey instead of using modern medicine to cure her?

You fail to see the point; clinical trials, double blind studies are all worthless when you understand the effecs and mechanisms of what is working. As far as the boy with the Autism that you tried to dismiss; why did you ignore the other 80 cases that received compensation. Or debunk the University study concluding that monkies developed te same autistic symptoms.
But since you want to tip-toe around and avoid answering questions directly. I'll just debunk your nonsense.
Now please tell me why it wouldn't enhance brain function or drop it. The ingredients have been proven clinically to work and your entire founding belief for skepticism is no trials. You were wrong.

No, none of the sites you linked to are the truth. All of them are opinions from degenerates who write untrue nonsense about vaccines and autism.
BTW, I did give you all of the evidence you demanded, and more. I educated you to the truth about autism and you went digging in the Pharma Propaganda Manual to try to find stupid arguments to deny what I taught you. Go back and reread everything I wrote in this thread and you will gain a true understanding of autism.

It's not a lie; obviously those individual ingredients had to undergo clinical trials. You did nothing to debunk any of them. Also the boy with autism, was only one case of over 80, which it mentions in the same report. Secondly, don't Government institutions and pharmaceutical companies have a bias in the medicine and studies they conduct. Yes, they do. With that being said; what in the hell are you going on about?edit on 7-12-2012 by VeritasAequitas because: (no reason given)

By the way; if the ingredients have been proven to work, there is no clinical study needed to confirm it works. The pill is basically a brain anti-oxidant complex.

And actually there were only two mays in regards to possible uses for Alcar. Everything else is presented as fact; reading comprehension skills is a plus in any debate.

Procera AVH® is a proprietary, patent pending, nutritional supplement that was clinically tested and shown to help improve memory, focus, mental clarity, and even mood. Procera AVH®'s double-blind, placebo controlled University Clinical trial was conducted at the Brain Sciences Institute in Australia.
Study Center – World Renown Brain Sciences Institute The ProceraAVH study was conducted by world renown cognitive researcher, Dr. Con Stough at the Brain Sciences Institute, Swinburne University, Melbourne, Australia. The Brain Sciences Institute was chosen for two reasons: It is one of the leading neuro-cognitive research labs in the world with a comprehensive array of neuro-psych tests, such as the FDA approved, CDR tests of cognitive function used in over 500 pharmaceutical drug trials and cited in over 1000 published papers, as well as advanced EEG, MEG, ERP, and MRI brain recording and imaging technologies,. The Principal investigator for the Procera AVH was Dr. Con Stough. Dr. Stough is one of the world’s most frequently published and leading authorities on IQ and intelligence, and cognitive enhancing drugs and nutraceuticals. Evidence of Efficacy Procera AVH™ is one of the few, if not only, brain nutritional supplements on the market today that not only was tested for efficacy, from a major university research study or clinical trial, but also uses only clinically validated ingredients at or above the dosage levels shown in prior independent studies to be effective and safe. Most, if not all, other supposed brain boosting supplements on the market fail to use minimally “proven effective” ingredient levels. Most put just a little bit of everything in their formula to window dress their label in hopes of impressing the un-informed public. Don’t be impressed! And few, if any, “cognitive enhancers” and “mood enhancers” have been validated in a highly qualified university study with normal functioning people across a broad age group. Only Procera AVH, a “dual action cognitive and mood enhancer”, has satisfied all the important criteria. This is why Procera AVH can justify its claim to be the first Mind, Mood and Memory enhancer with evidence of Efficacy!

You are such a shill. It's so obvious dude. Secondly, you look at treating illness on a combination basis. Analogy : I recently had some sinus problems, drainage, etc. I took a combination of 2x700mg Spirulina's, 5x 8000 IU Vitamin A, 2 B-complex with 300mg Vitamin C added, 1x 1000mg Vitamin C, all daily. I also drank maybe 2-3 Arizona Vitamin C enhanced teas.
You wanna know how long it took me to get rid of it? 3 days. If I went to the doctor I would still be taking antibiotics by the 7th day, blocking histamines that boost the immune system. I have a father who has Atherosclerosis and has already suffered one heart attack. I had to practically tell him everything he should be taking for this disease. When my father raised concerns over the vitamins and nutrients I confided to him, his doctor looked at him strangely and said that actually yes; he should be taking all of those. Now my question is; why can I do that quacks job?
Yes; if you read all of those that I posted; it is not debatable that the 3 of those "may protect from brain damage/ enhance brain function. It is fact.
ALCAR has the ability to cross the blood–brain barrier and get to the brain blood circulation, where it acts as a powerful antioxidant,[14] which helps in prevention of the brain cells' deterioration. Its supplementation has been shown to be neuroprotective in instances of cerebral ischemia in rats[
Nowhere in any of that does it leave it open for debate as to whether or not that is what it "may" or "may not" do. Re-examine them all, while they may have potential other uses, they all DO enhance or protect brain function. No mays or mays not about it. Why does my age matter? Why do you accuse people of outright deceit with NO proof? Why do you degenerate to calling people antagonistic names like quack? Do you have an assassination or a silencing agenda?

These are not debatable! Regardless of whether or not you can comment on the other cases; matters not. You are a nobody, who decides nothing on these matters; fortunately courts who do matter found it reasonable that they receive compensation. As for the monkies; does it matter if the school already filed legal proceedings? No it doesn't; but then again governments and pharmaceutical companies have agendas too. Don't be a hypocrite. What does anybody have to gain by a conspiracy theory like these; and what do they(TPTB),have to lose? Think about that one when you start pointing fingers and accusing people of deception because what they say doesn't coincide with your masters.edit on 7-12-2012 by VeritasAequitas because: (no reason given)

Every autistic child since 1999 could have been avoided if not for the psychopathic liars. How many babies is that, worldwide who had their brains toasted just because a bunch of liars want to avoid having anyone learn the truth?
These are the questions I want to see the liars address, not some nonsense about which study sounds better then another study.
