Dr. Joy Kong discusses Cerebrolisin, a prescription medication made from pig brain extract that crosses the blood-brain barrier to stimulate neural regeneration and protect neurons. Used in multiple countries for stroke recovery and Alzheimer's, the liquid form is more effective than the freeze-dried powder. Her Los Angeles clinic imports the liquid version from Europe.
Have you heard about Cerebrolisin? This is actually a big gun. It's considered the holy grail of brain peptides. Cerebrolisin is actually a prescription medication for various neurological conditions in multiple countries, especially in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. It's most commonly used for stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury, vascular dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and other cognitive disorders. So the truth is, Cerebrolisin is actually a pig brain extract consisting of a wide range of neuroprotective peptides. The active fragments and amino acids in Cerebrolisin are of very low molecular weight and can penetrate the blood-brain barrier and reach neurons directly. It can stimulate peripheral and central neural regeneration. It improves brain's metabolic processes and improves intracellular peptide synthesis. It can help to shield neurons from oxidative damages and lactic acidosis. It also promotes the growth of new brain cells and improve brain cell communication and enhance learning capacity. But one of the challenges is that the proper liquid form is very difficult to obtain, and the lyophilized, which is freeze-dried, powder. That form is much easier to obtain but doesn't work as well. However, at our clinic, we do have the liquid form, and that is obtained directly from Europe. So if you're interested, please contact us at Chao Health in Los Angeles.
