Mental Health

Mental health is influenced by a wide range of nutritionally relevant ingredients. Micronutrients and functional ingredients perform different, complementary functions within the nervous system and brain metabolism.

Vitamins and minerals

Micronutrients such as B vitamins, magnesium and vitamin C support the normal function of the nervous system and are involved in neurotransmitter synthesis, brain energy metabolism and stress regulation. They also contribute to the protection of nerve cells against oxidative stress and influence mental performance and emotional balance.

Amino acids

L-theanine and L-tryptophan influence neurochemical processes in the brain and play a role in the regulation of stress, mood, mental focus and sleep.

Omega-3 fatty acids

The omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are structural components of brain and nerve cells. Both fatty acids contribute to normal brain function and cognitive performance.

Adaptogens and nootropics

Adaptogens such as ashwagandha, Rhodiola rosea and ginseng may help the body adapt to increased physical and emotional stress. Nootropics such as L-theanine, Bacopa monnieri and Ginkgo biloba are involved in neurochemical processes and are associated with concentration, mental clarity and stress regulation.
