Vinpocetine

Vinpocetine is a periwinkle plant extract (Vinca major) that improves brain function. It has been used medicinally in Europe since 1983.

Vinpocetine improves cerebral circulation by dilating the arteries of the brain but does not dilate other blood vessels..

Vinpocetine can not only prevent stroke but can also prevent much of the damage that occurs following stroke if administered immediately.
