Neuralli is backed by clinical science
The active ingredient in Neuralli is L. plantarum PS128, a probiotic strain of plant origin that of plant origin. Preclinical studies suggest that it balances the levels of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine.
Three studies of PS128 with autistic children and adolescents indicate it can provide nutritional support to improve neurological symptoms.
Two randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical studies1,2 and one “real-world study”3 have been published, each by a different research group.
What is Neuralli?
Neuralli is a medical probiotic containing the unique psychobiotic strain L. plantarum PS128 at the same dose utilized in 12 published clinical studies of neurological and mental health conditions.
PS128 is a psychobiotic - “a live organism that when ingested in adequate amounts produces a health benefit in patients suffering from a neurological illness.”
Neuralli is a medical food. The term medical food, as defined in section 5(b) of the Orphan Drug Act (21 U.S.C. 360ee (b) (3)) is "a food which is formulated to be consumed or administered enterally under the supervision of a physician and which is intended for the specific dietary management of a disease or condition for which distinctive nutritional requirements, based on recognized scientific principles, are established by medical evaluation".
How it works
Research suggests that PS128, the active ingredient in Neuralli, has both probiotic and psychobiotic effects.
Its psychobiotic effects are mediated by the gut-brain axis (GBA), allowing PS128 to influence
the central nervous system without leaving the intestinal lumen.
