How does LevitoL
work?
We've tried to briefly cover the
technical aspects of LevitoL, while also providing a
plain English explanation. Please see our
clinical trials section for more in-depth
information.
The supplements found in LevitoL
have been scientifically shown to work in the following
ways:
By increasing blood flow to the brain
and brain capillaries.
By increasing glucose and oxygen
consumption in the brain.
By helping maintain higher levels of
monoamines (serotonin and nor epinephrine) in the
body**
By providing extra glutamine to the
brain.
By helping repair damaged nerve
cells.
By
directly helping communication between your left and
right brain henispheres**

More blood going to the brain means more
energy (oxygen and glucose) is carried by the
blood to the brain for the brain to use.
This can help improve
memory, mental performance and mood.
By
increasing glucose and oxygen consumption in the brain.
This means
your brain can use more energy (glucose and
oxygen) in order to work. When the brain
burns more energy it is able to perform at a
higher level.

By helping maintain higher levels of monoamines (serotonin
and
nor- epinephrine ) in the body**
Hypericum Perforatum
, is just one of the substances in LevitoL
which
is widely used to
treat mild to moderate depression.
**Hypericum
Perforatum
contains about 10 chemicals that could likely
directly affect brain function and mood.
**Scientists aren't exactly sure how
these chemicals work, but
it is believed they work in the same way many
prescription anti-depressants work, by
increasing monoamines in the body.
Monoamines are neurotransmitters (the messengers
of the brain). After a monoamine has
"delivered" its message to the brain, it is
destroyed.
Hypericum
Perforatum is believed to slow the destruction
of monoamines. This in turn raises the
level of monoamines in the body.
An increased level of
monoamines is closely linked with elevated mood
and brain function.

By providing extra
glutamine to the brain.
Although
glucose is the main source of energy for the
brain, there is another brain fuel called
"glutamine" which is one of the only other known
energy sources for the brain.
Glutamine is often considered a backup fuel for
the brain because it is mainly used when
supplies of glucose are low.
Simply put,
the more energy available for the brain to use,
the more it can use.
Think back to
when you went a long time without food.
Did you notice how you felt tired or grouchy, and couldn't
think clearly? This was due partly to the
fact that there wasn't enough glucose in your
system for your brain to work at its full
potential.

By helping repair
damaged
nerve cells.
Bacosides, which are found in LevitoL can help repair damaged nerve
cells by assisting
the protein kinase, which is involved in the
creation of new
nerve cells.
By directly
improving communication between your left and right
brain hemispheres
**Acetyl-L-Carnitine
(ALC), which is also found in LevitoL, is
believed by many scientists to help directly
improve communication between the left and right
brain hemispheres. The reason for this is
not fully understood.
:: back to top ::
The suggested serving
size for LevitoL is one or two 777mg capsules a day.
Individual results vary.
Try taking LevitoL with
or without food for different results.

Who shouldn't take LevitoL?
Please consult
your doctor first, especially if you are
currently taking any other medications or
supplements;
prescription or over the counter. LevitoL
can have interactions with other drugs.
Listed below are the most common drug interactions. LevitoL should
not be taken with any of these, without
first consulting a doctor:
Any
anti-depressant or anti-anxiety medications.
Including but not limited to Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOI's), such as Nardil™
or Parnate™ and Selective Serotonin Reuptake
Inhibitors (SSRIs) such as Prozac™
or Zoloft™ . ***
Birth Control
Pill (lessens effectiveness)
Cholesterol /
Heart medications such as simvastatin
HIV
anti-viral medications such as
Indinavir™,
Efavirenz™ and
Nevirapine™
***
Any other
prescription or over the counter medication
or supplement, without first consulting your
