The molecular formula of nervonic acid is C24:1 and the chemical name of it is cis-15-Tetracosenoic acid. Nervonic acid is also known as shark acid in foreign countries because it is mainly extracted from shark brain and shark oil. The nervonic acid of our company, however, is extracted from the plant nervonic acid of the Acer Truncatum Bunge Seed Oil – distinguishing from shark acid for it does not contain the germs and virus from animal bodies. Such acid coming from plant is a kind of natural innocuous and harmless unsaturated fatty acid. Compared with the nervonic acid generated overseas, our ingredients are more natural without pollution and with more rich resources. Nervonic acid is a core natural ingredient comprising cranial nerve cell and nerve tissue and is an effective material that can repair and regenerate the damaged nerve tissues. Nervonic acid is also a kind of indispensable advanced nutrient for the re-growth and maintenance of brain cells, nerve cells and peripheral cells. Besides, nervonic acid occupies a relatively high percentage of the nerve tissues and cerebral tissues.
It is a signature component of medulla in brain, which facilitates varied physiological functions related to biofilm. Nervonic acid is also an indispensable resource for the growth and repair of the brain and nerve system and plays an important role in elevating the activeness of cranial nerves and inhibiting cerebral neurasthenia. Currently, we have made a significant progress in the purification of nervonic acid – we can extract more than 90% nervonic acid, which comprises optimized raw materials of functional food, health products and medicine.
