NEURALTA BRAIN POWER AND PTSD

NEURALTA BRAIN POWER of Alta Care Laboratoires has been produced with the aim of strengthening the nervous system, especially the central nervous system, which tends to weaken not only with age, and with chronic pain, but also when one is suffering the consequences of a traumatic event. The number of people who are suffering from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is alarming.

Statistics in the USA indicate that approximately 7%-8% of people in the USA are likely to develop PTSD in their lifetime. In the case of combat veterans and rape victims, the range for victims may range from 10% to 30%. Soldiers returning from the Afghan War are now being subjected to a debriefing regarding traumatic events they may have experienced. What in World War I was referred to soldiers heart and shell-shock, and in World War II gross stress reaction; following Vietnam it was called the post-Vietnam syndrome. Now it is called PTSD. Various studies are being carried out to investigate the factors that increase the risk of PTSD for military personnel on returning from military service in Iraq and Afghanistan. The most important predictor of PTSD is obviously threat to life during the trauma. Other important modifiable occupational factors, such as unit morale, leadership, preparation of combatants for their role in theatre, may influence an individual's risk. Soldiers, rape victims and anyone suffering from PTSD may suffer from sleepless nights, hallucinations, re-experiencing traumatic event, feelings of isolation, and tendency to suicidal acts.

PTSD means that the brain has been damaged and consequently its cell membranes need reinforcement. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylserine (PS) are phospholipids located within the inner leaflet of the cell membrane. PS and PC are implicated in a myriad of membrane-related functions. PS is essential for the functioning of all body cells, but is most needed in the brain. NEURALTA BRAIN POWER, contains PC and PS and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an Omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, an essential component for human health. DHA is a major building block of cell membranes and can be found in high concentrations in brain and nerve tissue as well as in the eye retina and testes. It is crucial for the functioning of embedded proteins such as rhodopsin, and for vision and post-synaptic receptors for neurotransmission.

Victims of PTSD may also be divorce litigants, victims of sexual abuse and children sexually abused. PTSD sufferers are to consult their doctors and visit web-site www.altacare.com regarding NEURALTA BRAIN POWER LIQUID CAPSULES.
