Planetary Herbals, Myelin Sheath Support, 180 Tablets

Myelin Sheath Support Herbal Formula
Herbal-Nutrient Nervous System Support

Planetary Formulas Myelin Sheath Support is a comprehensive botanical preparation, designed to support the fat-like insulating sheath (myelin) that surrounds certain nerve tissues. This formula was developed by herbalist Alan Tillotson, a clinician with 20 years of clinical experience.

Myelin Sheath Support: Nervous System Support

Myelin Sheath Support is a broad-range herbal-nutrient formula that supports your nervous system with traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese botanicals as well as scientifically researched nutrients. Vitamin B-12 is key to the Myelin Sheath Support formula. It plays two critical roles: 1) it is essential for normal health of blood; and 2) it may function as a coenzyme in the synthesis of either the protein or lipid part of myelin.

Comprehensive Botanical - Nutrient Formula

• Ayurvedic botanicals:
  Ashwagandha has been widely used throughout India for 3,000-4,000 years. It is one of the most highly regarded tonics in the 6,000-year old Ayurvedic tradition. Bacopa has been reported by Ayurvedic scholar Charaka to promote mental ability. Yogaraj guggul is one of the most valued botanical compounds of Ayurveda. The boswellic acids in boswellia inhibit leukotriene synthesis. Shilajit, a mineral resin that oozes from steep rocks in the Himalayas, is used extensively in Ayurveda. Curcuma (turmeric) has been used both internally and externally in Ayurveda. Curcuma is included in a dosage clinically shown to inhibit a group of enzymes that influence metabolism of arachidonic acid. Arachidonic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid found in most animal fats and is a precursor of prostaglandins.
  
  
• Chinese herbs:
  Included are the Chinese tonifiers panax ginseng and tienchi ginseng, as well as licorice extract (which is also prominent in European herbalism). Myelin Sheath Support delivers panax ginseng in amounts clinically shown to have adaptogenic (anti-stress) effects.
  
  
• Nutrients:
  Vitamin B-12, central for supporting the nervous system and specifically the myelin sheath, is included in the form of methylcobalamin. While a few forms of B-12 have been used clinically, it has been shown that methylcobalamin is a highly assimilable form of B-12, leading to increased retention in tissues. Myelin Sheath Support also includes zinc, copper, L-selenomethionine, boron, calcium, potassium, magnesium, chromium and pantothenic acid.
