Category Overview

Cognitive peptides work through multiple brain-enhancing pathways:

  • Neurotransmitter Modulation: Enhancement of dopamine, serotonin, and acetylcholine systems
  • Neuroplasticity: Support for synaptic formation and neural pathway development
  • BDNF Activation: Stimulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor for neurogenesis
  • Neuroprotection: Defense against oxidative stress and cellular damage
  • Memory Formation: Enhancement of encoding, consolidation, and recall processes
NOOTROPIC STACKING: Cognitive peptides are often combined for synergistic effects. Popular combinations include Semax + Selank for balanced cognitive enhancement, or P21 with cholinergic support compounds.
