Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition for improving physical strength and memory comprising L-carnitine, BCAA, and protein hydrolyzed peptides extracted from pig brain. Background Technology

[0002] In modern society, improving physical strength and memory is recognized as important health management factors, and to enhance physical strength, nutrients are needed that effectively utilize physical energy, prevent muscle loss, and promote fatigue recovery.

[0003] Existing physical strength supplements have been developed primarily to include proteins, essential amino acids, and energy source components; L-carnitine is known to contribute to energy production and fatigue recovery by promoting fatty acid transport, while BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) are known to aid in muscle protein synthesis.

[0004] Meanwhile, improving memory requires components that activate brain function and protect nerve cells. Protein hydrolysate peptides extracted from porcine brains are known to be effective in improving learning ability and memory by inducing nerve cell protection and synaptic plasticity enhancement. Cerebrolysin is produced by concentrating this component and is reported to show excellent efficacy in improving learning ability and memory.

[0005] However, existing products have primarily been developed considering only individual efficacy, and there is a lack of research that simultaneously addresses physical strength enhancement and memory improvement. Furthermore, supplements combining these two functions have not yet resolved issues regarding formulation stability and absorption rates.

[0006] In particular, cerebrolysin is rarely developed in the form of health supplements, and research on its efficient absorption and mechanism of action upon oral intake is insufficient. Therefore, there is a need to develop a composition that enables the simultaneous improvement of physical strength and memory. The problem to be solved

[0007] The technical problem that the present invention aims to solve is to effectively induce the improvement of memory while simultaneously enhancing physical strength by providing a composition comprising L-carnitine, BCAA (molecular chain amino acids), and a protein hydrolyzed peptide (cerebrolysin) extracted from pig brain.

[0008] Furthermore, the technical problem that the present invention aims to solve is to comprehensively achieve post-exercise fatigue recovery, prevention of muscle loss, and improvement of brain function by promoting fatty acid metabolism through L-carnitine, enhancing muscle protein synthesis through BCAA, and promoting neurotrophic factor action through cerebrolysin.

[0009] Furthermore, the technical problem that the present invention aims to solve is to expand the range of consumer choices by providing the composition in various formulations (tablets, capsules, powders, liquids), and to maximize bioavailability by including excipients and absorption-improving ingredients.

[0010] In addition, the technical problem that the present invention aims to solve is to provide a composition capable of effective physical strength management and maintenance of cognitive function by adding micronutrients such as B vitamins, vitamin C, and magnesium to L-carnitine, BCAA (molecular chain amino acids), and protein hydrolyzed peptide (cerebrolysin) extracted from pig brain to support metabolism and nerve function, and by including antioxidant substances (ginkgo leaf extract, rosemary extract, coenzyme Q10, polyphenols, etc.) to alleviate brain oxidative stress. means of solving the problem

Specific details for implementing the invention

[0015] Hereinafter, various embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily implement the present invention. The present invention may be embodied in various different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0016] To clearly explain the present invention, parts unrelated to the explanation have been omitted, and the same reference numerals are assigned to identical or similar components throughout the specification. Accordingly, the reference numerals described above may also be used in other drawings.

[0017] Furthermore, the size and thickness of each component shown in the drawings are depicted arbitrarily for convenience of explanation, and thus the present invention is not necessarily limited to what is illustrated. Thickness may be exaggerated in the drawings to clearly represent various layers and regions.

[0018] Furthermore, the expression "identical" in the explanation may mean "substantially identical." In other words, it may be an identicality to the extent that a person with ordinary knowledge would accept it as identical. Other expressions may also be those in which "substantially" has been omitted.

[0019] Furthermore, when a part in the description is described as 'including' a certain component, this means that, unless specifically stated otherwise, it does not exclude other components but may include additional components. Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0021] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition for improving physical strength and memory may be composed of L-carnitine, BCAA (Branched-Chain Amino Acids), and a protein hydrolyzed peptide (cerebrolysin) extracted from pig brain.

[0022] In this composition, L-carnitine is an essential component in the process of converting fatty acids into energy sources within the mitochondria of cells, and by activating energy metabolism in the body, it can help recover from physical fatigue and contribute to the improvement of endurance.

[0023] In addition, BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) are essential amino acids composed of leucine, isoleucine, valine, etc., which promote muscle protein synthesis, reduce muscle damage after exercise, and facilitate protein metabolism in the body, thereby helping to maintain muscle strength and improve athletic performance.

[0024] In addition, cerebrolysin, a protein hydrolyzed peptide extracted from pig brains, has a neuroprotective effect and exerts functions similar to nervous system growth factors, which may be useful for increasing memory and improving nerve function.

[0025] Through this combination of ingredients, the present invention enables the efficient utilization of energy sources, thereby reducing fatigue and strengthening muscle strength, while simultaneously exhibiting neuroprotective effects that can contribute to the improvement of learning ability and memory.

[0026] In one embodiment of the present invention, L-carnitine included in the composition is designed for physical strength enhancement and fatigue recovery, and can particularly play a role in promoting energy production in the body by activating fatty acid metabolism.

[0027] Specifically, L-carnitine acts as a transporter for long-chain fatty acids within mitochondria, efficiently inducing fatty acid oxidation, and the ATP generated in this process can contribute to improved physical activity and endurance.

[0028] In addition, supplementing with L-carnitine can help reduce overall physical fatigue by inhibiting the accumulation of fatigue-causing substances in muscle tissue and preventing cell damage through its antioxidant action.

[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention, the BCAA (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) included in the composition comprises leucine, isoleucine, and valine, and the composition may have the function of promoting muscle protein synthesis in the body and preventing muscle loss.

[0030] Specifically, leucine is a key amino acid that activates the mTOR (mammalian Target Of Rapamycin) pathway, a protein biosynthesis pathway, thereby promoting muscle growth and recovery, while isoleucine can increase amino acid absorption within muscles and support its utilization as an energy source by regulating insulin secretion.

[0031] In addition, valine contributes to maintaining the balance of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system and can have the effect of promoting fatigue recovery.

[0032] As such, the present composition utilizes BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) to promote muscle protein synthesis and prevent muscle loss, and can help with fatigue recovery and physical strength maintenance after exercise by facilitating the body's energy metabolism.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition containing a protein hydrolyzed peptide extracted from pig brain as an active ingredient contains cerebrolysin and may have the characteristic of inducing memory improvement and neuroprotective effects through the action of neurotrophic factors (NTFs).

[0034] To this end, porcine brain tissue is subjected to an enzymatic hydrolysis process to obtain a protein hydrolyzed peptide mixture, which may include various neurotrophic factor-derived peptides that contribute to neuronal growth and differentiation and synaptic plasticity.

[0035] The present composition, utilizing cerebrolysin, can contribute to the improvement of learning ability and memory by maintaining and protecting neuronal function upon administration, reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory responses, and strengthening synaptic connections between neurons. Additionally, it may exhibit effects that protect neurons damaged by traumatic brain injury (TBI) or neurodegenerative diseases and promote their recovery.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition for improving physical strength and memory includes a natural extract as an active ingredient and may additionally include excipients or pharmaceutical excipients to increase the absorption rate in the body.

[0037] Here, the active ingredients may include plant-derived extracts or peptide compounds effective for improving cognitive function and enhancing physical vitality, and pharmaceutical additives such as solubilizers, stabilizers, emulsifiers, or lipid nanoparticles may be used together to increase the bioavailability of these ingredients.

[0038] In addition, the formulation of the composition may be provided in the form of tablets, capsules, powders, or liquids that are easy to administer orally, and to improve absorption rates, microencapsulation technology may be applied within these formulations or nanoparticle technology may be utilized to maximize the delivery efficiency of the active ingredient into the body.

[0039] In addition, it can be designed to include vegetable oils, natural polymers, or hydrophilic polymers as excipients so that the active ingredient can be stably released in the digestive tract, and if necessary, it can also be manufactured as a sustained-release formulation capable of continuous release in the body.

[0040] When consumed for a certain period, this composition can provide not only memory improvement but also the effects of recovering from physical fatigue and enhancing overall vitality, and can be particularly useful for subjects with reduced learning ability or accumulated physical fatigue.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition for improving physical strength and memory may have a composition including B vitamins, vitamin C, and magnesium as auxiliary ingredients to increase bioavailability and optimize physical function.

[0042] B vitamins play a role in improving cognitive function and relieving fatigue by promoting the synthesis of neurotransmitters and contributing to energy metabolism; in particular, vitamins B1 (thiamine), B6 ​​(pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) can act as important factors in maintaining nerve health and improving memory.

[0043] In addition, vitamin C protects bodily functions through its antioxidant action and helps strengthen immune function, thereby promoting the maintenance of overall health, while magnesium acts as an essential mineral for nerve transmission and muscle relaxation, which can contribute to the stabilization of the nervous system and improved concentration.

[0044] Such a composition can be provided in various formulations such as capsules, tablets, liquids, and powders, and it may be possible to increase the absorption rate in the body and maximize physiological effects through appropriate combination with the active ingredient.

[0045] Therefore, the present composition can be applied to health functional foods, pharmaceuticals, or functional beverages intended to improve memory along with physical strength, and can be utilized as a product aimed at promoting physical and mental health based on its positive effects on the human body.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition for improving physical strength and memory may be composed of a blend containing various physiologically active ingredients to activate physical energy metabolism and enhance cognitive function. In particular, to enhance the antioxidant and neuroprotective effects of the composition, one or more of ginkgo leaf extract, rosemary extract, coenzyme Q10, or polyphenols may be additionally included.

[0047] Ginkgo leaf extract contains flavonoid and terpenoid components that contribute to improving blood flow and provide neuroprotective effects, while rosemary extract contains carnosol and rosmarinic acid, which can exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

[0048] In addition, Coenzyme Q10 plays an essential role in the electron transport system within mitochondria to promote cellular energy metabolism, while polyphenols inhibit oxidative damage caused by free radicals and provide antioxidant protective effects, which can contribute to improving overall physical condition.

[0049] The combination of these ingredients enhances the body's endurance and recovery capabilities, while simultaneously preventing memory loss through neuroprotective effects and helping to improve learning and cognitive functions.

[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition for improving physical strength and memory may be provided in a form in which liposomal technology or special coating technology is applied to enhance stability within the body.

[0051] The composition forms a liposome structure in which the main active ingredient is surrounded by a phospholipid bilayer, thereby preventing degradation by stomach acid or digestive enzymes and increasing the absorption rate in the intestines.

[0052] In addition, by applying special coating technology, the active ingredient is protected from being lost during digestion, and it can be designed to release the active ingredient at a constant rate within the body through a sustained-release system.

[0053] Specifically, the active ingredient may be water-soluble or fat-soluble, and accordingly, the absorption efficiency can be maximized by adjusting the phospholipid membrane composition of the liposome or by applying a hydrophilic polymer or a hydrophobic coating material.

[0054] Accordingly, the present invention can increase stability within the gastrointestinal tract and improve bioavailability, while simultaneously providing more sustained and efficient effects of physical strength enhancement and memory improvement.

[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition for improving physical strength and memory may be provided in the form of a sports drink or a nutritional drink, and for this purpose, it may be prepared as a liquid composition containing an active ingredient having physiological activity.

[0056] The composition contains taurine, caffeine, B vitamins (e.g., B1, B6, B12), arginine, and L-carnitine as main active ingredients, which can play a role in promoting bodily energy metabolism and enhancing exercise performance.

[0057] Additionally, natural ingredients such as green tea extract, ginseng extract, Rhodiola extract, or herbal extracts may be included, which can reduce fatigue and contribute to improved memory through their antioxidant effects.

[0058] In addition, the present composition may include carbohydrates (e.g., glucose, fructose) and electrolytes (e.g., sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium) in appropriate proportions for blood sugar control and long-term energy supply. This allows for maintaining electrolyte balance during physical activity and preventing muscle cramps, and it may be possible to include additional ingredients such as phosphatidylserine, omega-3 fatty acids (DHA, EPA), and ginkgo leaf extract to improve cognitive function.

[0059] To improve the sensory characteristics of the beverage, sweeteners (e.g., stevia, sucralose), acidifiers (e.g., citric acid), and natural or synthetic flavorings may be added, and antioxidants (e.g., ascorbic acid) and preservatives (e.g., potassium sorbate) may be included to maintain the stability of the liquid formulation and prevent the degradation of the active ingredient.

[0060] The composition may be provided by filling and sealing it in a standard PET bottle, can, or Tetra Pak container, and, if necessary, may be manufactured in the form of a powder or concentrate so that consumers can mix it with water for consumption.

[0061] In one embodiment of the present invention, a composition for improving physical strength and memory may be provided in the form of a powder stick so that the user can carry it and consume it conveniently.

[0062] The composition contains various active ingredients that enhance physical vitality and improve cognitive function, and may include, for example, ginseng or red ginseng extract, ginkgo leaf extract, taurine, vitamin B complex, and a mixture of amino acids.

[0063] This composition is formulated in a ratio optimized for the human body to increase absorption and maximize physiological effects, and can maintain stability by mixing with excipients having specific functionality.

[0064] In addition, since it is manufactured in the form of a powder stick, individual packaging is easy, users can carry it easily, and it can be consumed conveniently without water, thereby maximizing convenience of consumption.

[0065] In the manufacturing process, powdered raw materials are uniformly mixed, quantitatively packaged, and sealed; a specially coated package material may also be used to protect against moisture and external contamination during distribution.

[0066] Through these formulation characteristics, consumers can quantitatively consume a consistent dose, and since it is easy to adjust the daily intake, it offers high practicality. Accordingly, the composition of the present invention can be provided in the form of a useful health supplement that allows for the expectation of physical strength enhancement and memory improvement effects through a convenient consumption method, even amidst the busy daily lives of modern people.
