New Product: Mind-Max
It’s the perfect combination for optimal brain function. Scientists are finding that a decreasing number of nerve synapses (the connections between nerve cells) spells problems in memory, cognition and overall brain health. Blood circulation and magnesium play an essential role in nerve synapses. Nature’s Sunshine is proud to introduce Mind-Max, which contains magnesium l-threonate, plus the herbs ginkgo leaf, gotu kola and bacopa leaf.
