Brain tonic is a supplement product that is interested by many subjects. Especially a brain tonic for children to increase thinking ability. Is the truth behind it really?
1. Benefits of brain tonic
The brain is the central organ that controls all activities of the body. That is why we always need to pay attention and take care of it carefully. So is taking brain tonics good?
The brain is like a machine that processes a lot of information every day. At the same time, this is also the part that contains many sensory nerves. Therefore, after every day of working, the brain may fall into a state of fatigue and need to rest. Brain diseases, or specifically damage to the blood vessels of the brain, are more dangerous and cause higher mortality than most diseases.
Therefore, we should use brain tonic supplements to enhance nutrition for the brain. In addition, when the brain is provided with tonic, it will reduce negative feelings and become more alert and remember better. Occupying an important part in the central nervous system, the brain also has a direct influence on the body's resistance. Therefore, brain tonic is a method to improve health and mood for users.
Brain tonics also have many types and are divided into many groups of nutrients to best suit each person. If you have ever had a psychological problem or a nervous breakdown, you should seek advice and guidance from your doctor. Because brain tonics may unintentionally contain ingredients that interact with the body, absolute safety cannot be guaranteed.
When users use brain tonics to ensure the right method and right purpose, they will be able to keep their mind alert and at the same time have a healthy body. The health of the brain often greatly affects the behavior of the body, so we cannot ignore it. Coupled with a healthy brain you will have a healthy heart and an energetic body.
2. Concept of brain tonic
Currently, many people think that being a tonic is only useful. It is possible that the studied tonic brings many health benefits, but the inadvertent interaction with other drugs or the user's body is the final answer to the benefits of the supplement.
2.1 Do brain tonics cause side effects when taken? Because brain tonic is a high-priced product, most people will think that this drug is almost harmless to the nervous system or health when used. This is a subjectivity due to lack of understanding that has cost many individuals dearly. More specifically, each body will have a different physical environment, so it's good for some people to use it, but it's not effective for others, even dangerous to health later.
Based on statistical analysis with common side effects after taking brain tonics, they can be divided into 2 groups. You may experience some long-term tiring or dangerous reactions depending on the situation.
In the group with side effects that can be controlled, if detected in time, there will be symptoms such as: headache, dizziness, low blood pressure, mental confusion, dizziness, dizziness , vomiting ... These manifestations have not limited the ability to judge too much, so you can completely recognize and give first aid promptly.
People with a history of or are suffering from high blood pressure need to be careful when taking brain tonics. This is a group of subjects that can be at many times more dangerous and difficult to cure if misused or misused.
2.2 Brain tonics can be used comfortably The majority of healthy people will be at greater risk of abusing brain tonics than patients. Therefore, you should research carefully or seek help from your doctor or pharmacist before taking the medicine to make sure it is safer.
Today's tonic products have many types, even bought at the pharmacy, it is difficult to accurately assess their use. It's still best to follow a hospital-controlled prescription. At the same time, you should conduct periodic health checks to have a monitoring basis in case the drug appears to have side effects.
2.3 What are the consequences of using a lot of brain tonics? Functional foods can temporarily bring a sense of security to users. However, that makes people dependent on them and the effect is dangerous for the body itself. After a long process, the nervous system will weaken and become unable to function when you stop taking the medicine.
Not to mention the abuse of brain tonics will lead to psychosis syndrome. People with the disorder are at risk of hallucinating and gradually affecting the function of internal organs. Sometimes these problems are negative even when really serious and incurable disease is discovered.
Thinking that tonics are medicinal herbs should be refuted. Every drug after being launched has shortcomings that cannot be as perfect as we would like. Obedience to the laws of nature creates reflexes for the brain that are often better than using a coercive inhibition on them.
If you abuse the drug accidentally, the brain will lose its natural ability to move. Over time, the brain weakens and can no longer recover. That's why brain health comes from your own determination, not from the nutrition that supplements bring. The role of supplements is only to supplement, not replace.
All drugs when used have requirements and prescribed dosages. The idea that more is better for health is completely wrong. When the amount of supplements is in excess, they will accumulate and the risk is potentially unpredictable. Some cases can be handled, but if there is too much residue, this can be a harmful poison.
3. Some brain tonics you need to know
Brain tonics have the same effect of improving brain function. However, the dosage and method of use are always adjusted to be most suitable for each subject. Here are some common brain tonics
3.1 Fish oil Fish oil is no stranger to us. This is also a commonly used brain tonic for children. The main ingredients mentioned in this product are omega3, DHA, EPA. Besides improving memory and brain function, this product is also known to improve eyesight.
DHA is good for the brain but the improvement effect is only mild for new or complicated cases. In contrast, EPA has been shown to be beneficial in cases of depression. That is remarkable and is the basis to help users choose the right drug.
Brain tonic with ingredients containing fish oil will improve memory against aging. However, fish oil after extraction is difficult to ensure its freshness and original nutrition. This is also the question of many studies so far that have not been able to come to a conclusion.
3.2 Caffeine Caffeine is a stimulant that helps the brain achieve a state of wakefulness. This substance is often found in coffee, tea or dark chocolate. However, this substance can be addictive and make you abuse if used regularly.
With foods or drugs containing caffeine you should use no more than 400mg per day. This is a safe dose with little effect on health. In addition, if you regularly consume too much caffeine, you will increase the risk of psychological syndromes and sleep problems that make the brain tired and stressed.
3.3 Ginkgo biloba The name ginkgo biloba may sound familiar even though you don't know what it is. This is the ingredient used in many brain tonics. Its main function is to improve brain circulation to help you stay awake and alert.
At the same time this drug is also recommended for patients with dementia. In addition, when using it, you will be protecting the nerves around the eyes. This point is extremely significant for patients with glaucoma.
