Memory

Key Botanical Components and Mechanisms

Nymphaea caerulea (blue lotus)

Traditionally revered for its calming effects and subtle psychoactive profile. Promotes tranquility and mood regulation, indirectly benefiting cognitive clarity.

Himalayan pink salt (from Dolpo)

Supplies a wide range of trace minerals essential to neurotransmission and fluid balance. May help maintain electrical conductivity in neurons.

Arctium lappa (burdock root)

Supports detoxification of the liver and blood, indirectly reducing systemic inflammation that can impair brain function. Rich in inulin, a prebiotic beneficial to the gut-brain axis.

Cinchona spp. (cinchona tree bark powder)

Contains quinine and related alkaloids that support microcirculation and may enhance cerebral blood flow.

Palmaria palmata (dulse flakes)

Provides iodine and trace minerals that support thyroid and brain function. Marine polysaccharides offer antioxidant and neuroprotective effects.

Citrus limonum (lemon)

Delivers vitamin C and flavonoids that support collagen synthesis in capillaries, improve circulation, and reduce oxidative damage.

Sesamum indicum (white sesame seeds)

Rich in lignans and tocopherols that combat oxidative stress and protect neuronal lipid membranes.

Salix alba (white willow bark)

Natural source of salicin, which reduces neuroinflammation and may support cognitive performance via vascular dilation.

Taraxacum officinale (dandelion root)

Hepatoprotective and detoxifying, it supports metabolic clearance and gut health, both of which are foundational for brain function.

Silybum marianum (milk thistle whole seeds)

A powerful liver tonic that contains silymarin, which supports detoxification and may protect the blood–brain barrier.

Equisetum arvense (horsetail)

Rich in silica, supports connective tissue integrity and may aid synaptic repair and myelin regeneration.

Usnea spp. (usnea, wild harvested)

A lichen with antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant properties. May help reduce microbial stressors implicated in neuroinflammation.

Commiphora myrrha (myrrh gum resin)

Resin known for its neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties, enhancing cerebral microcirculation and clearing neural debris.

Solvent System

Non-GMO French Vodka: An 80-proof alcohol base designed to optimize extraction of both lipophilic and hydrophilic plant compounds, stabilizing a wide range of neuroactive and vascular-supportive constituents.

Summary

The Memory Tincture incorporates botanicals that support memory formation, cognitive processing, neurovascular health, detoxification, and antioxidant protection. It is formulated to combat cognitive fatigue, improve recall, and reduce oxidative damage associated with aging and environmental stressors. This broad-spectrum tonic is suitable for long-term cognitive support or as part of an integrative approach to memory preservation.
