How SerinAid® PS can help…
After oral administration, PS undergoes extensive
digestion in the small intestine producing various
metabolites. After digestion, these metabolites
enter the bloodstream and eventually reach the
brain and other target tissues.
While in these
tissues, PS assists the proteins that manage
