Nature leaves unmistakable signatures in its botanical designs: the walnut resembles the human brain down to its two cerebral hemispheres and neocortical wrinkles.

The Neuro-Protective Matrix:

**Plant Omega-3 (ALA - 9g/100g):** Essential precursor for neuronal cell membrane fluidity and neurotransmission speed.

**Ellagitannins & Urolithin A:** Powerful polyphenols metabolized by gut bacteria to trigger mitochondrial mitophagy and clean out damaged cellular debris.

**Plant Melatonin:** Supports deep circadian sleep architecture and night-time brain glymphatic detoxification.
