Problem
Age-related cognitive decline is often associated with the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaques and tau protein tangles in the brain, disrupting neuronal function and leading to memory loss. Existing nootropics may not directly target these underlying pathological hallmarks of cognitive aging.
Solution
Percepta is a plant-based dietary supplement formulated to address the accumulation of brain plaques and tangles associated with age-related memory decline. The formulation contains two patented ingredients: PTI-00703 Cat's Claw, sourced from the Amazon rainforest, and MemorTea, a specific oolong tea extract. These ingredients have demonstrated the ability to inhibit and reduce beta-amyloid plaques and tau protein tangles through in vitro and pre-clinical studies. By targeting these underlying factors, Percepta aims to support cognitive function and memory retention as individuals age.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes adults experiencing age-related cognitive decline, athletes concerned about brain health, and healthcare professionals seeking options for patients experiencing memory loss.
