According to Time Magazine, "How to Sharpen Your Mind" (January 16, 2006), the topic of cognitive health has entered the national spotlight. With supplements, cognitive exercises and literal gymnasiums for our gray matter, brain health is fast emerging as a primary concern in our information-overloaded society. At the forefront of this trend to promote healthier, faster brains is the Natrol Corporation, a recognized leader in the creation of cognitive nutritional supplements.

Responding to consumers' needs for a safe product that addresses a key area of cognitive health -- mental processing speed -- Natrol embarked on a three-year research-based campaign to bring Natrol(R) brain Speed(TM), the innovative line of cognitive health supplements, to market. Designed as a unique element in a healthy individual's brain fitness plan, Natrol brainSpeed offers three distinct supplement formulas designed to address three areas of cognitive function: performance, attention and memory.

To further promote brain health, Natrol(R) brain Speed(TM) offers individuals access to the brain Speed(TM) online test. Based upon cognitive testing platforms recognized at major universities, the test represents the first time a nutritional supplement provides an online tool for consumers to set a benchmark for their mental processing speed, and then track their progress on an individualized basis as they take the product.

According to Natrol CEO Elliott Balbert, "Natrol is dedicated to developing nutritional supplements that nourish our minds and bodies. With more than 25 years of experience in the dietary supplement industry, the Natrol Corporation is in a prime position to recognize health requirements and develop innovative new products that respond to those requirements." Added Balbert, "It made perfect sense to create a product line to help people fuel their brains with good nutrition, and contribute to the improvement of their mental performance, attention and memory."
