Brain health plays a vital role in everything we do, from how we feel and think to how we move, no matter how old we are. As we progress in our understanding of the complex neural system, we are beginning to put together models of how all the different parts of the human brain work together and how they mesh with the various structures of the body. This will help us cope with increasingly fast-paced digital-age lifestyles and their rising stress and fatigue levels, empower communities, and forge a healthier world.
Aplantex is poised to play a valuable role in the growth of nootropics.
The rise of nootropics
In the ongoing quest to make people stronger, smarter, and longer-lived, nootropics – supplements that boost cognitive performance and promote optimal brain function – have emerged as promising innovations for improved memory, performance, and productivity. This aligns with the idea that medicine should seek to boost the body, not just restore it to health when it goes wrong. As underlined in the March 22nd edition of The Economist, if taking brain-boosting chemicals sounds exotic or implausible, consider that the world produces around 11m tonnes of coffee annually and that the market for supplements already shifts $485bn- worth of pills every year. Furthermore, a drug that slowed the aging of everyone in America enough to raise life expectancy by a year would bring benefits that one study values at $38trn.
The Aplantex contribution
Recent market insights reveal that the nootropics supplement industry is expected to reach $4.7 billion by 2032. The key to maximizing the benefits and minimizing the risks will be to bring this rapidly growing industry into the scientific mainstream with new research and novel ingredient combinations to provide personalized solutions catering to the distinct needs of consumer groups such as students, athletes, working professionals, etc. As individuals seek to find solutions that support not only their cognitive performance but also their mental well-being, sleep quality, and stress levels there is a very real opportunity to create next-generation dietary supplements to support all aspects of brain health in conjunction with healthier lifestyle and diet, exercise and regular sleep.
The customizable Aplantex green biotechnology platform offers secure access to plant-based active compounds, including a broad range of high-powered polyphenols. Quickly, locally, and in a strictly controlled environment free of seasonal constraints, our proprietary photosynthetic phytoreplicators produce a rich biomass from which the right certified molecules can be extracted. Furthermore, as our process is based on the efficient use and recycling of water, nutrients, and green energy, we help reduce the pressure on the world’s ecosystems.
Aplantex is thus poised to play a valuable role in the growth of the nootropic supplement industry.
