World Brain Day: Elevating Cognitive Wellness with SageXtra™

July 22nd marks World Brain Day, a time to celebrate cognitive resilience and consider how targeted nutrition supports lifelong brain function. With increasing consumer interest in daily wellness solutions, the global brain health supplements market is projected to exceed £9.5 billion by 2033. Those working in supplement formulation are well-positioned to respond with ingredients combining efficacy, transparency, and consumer trust.

sageXtra™ – The Sage Solution For Your Brain

sageXtra™ is a branded, traceable, and clinically®-validated dried extract of Salvia officinalis, from Stratum Nutrition®  and distributed in the UK through our network.

Fast, Demonstrated Benefits Across Age Groups

In one randomised human trial, 65–90 year-olds taking 167–333 mg of sageXtra™ showed significant gains in working memory, attention speed, and accuracy within just 60 minutes

Another double-blind study in younger adults affirmed improvements in immediate word recall, mirroring results seen in older adults.

Well-Rounded Mechanisms of Action

sageXtra™ is more than a single-mode extract. It supports cognitive wellness through:

  • Cholinergic modulation by subtly influencing acetylcholinesterase activity
  • Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, reducing oxidative stress and markers like CRP and IL‑17 in cell models
  • Polyphenolic support, especially from rosmarinic acid, which contributes to neurotransmitter balance and neuro-supportive pathways

Ideal for Modern Formulations

sageXtra™ is shelf-stable, water-soluble, and adaptable for capsules, tablets, powders, or ready-to-drink formats. Perfect for products targeting focus, memory, and cognitive endurance.
