NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Feb. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In a landmark study of active and retired NFL players, conducted by Amen Clinics, Inc. (ACI), cognitive functions can be enhanced with a program including a healthy diet, regular exercise, weight control, and daily consumption of brain-directed dietary supplements called Brain Power Basic 3 (BPB3), which is now available to the public.

Offered through Mindworks, the products division of ACI, BPB3 is the first "brain-directed" daily nutrition system, which includes Brain and Memory Power Boost, Omega-3 Power and Neurovite Plus, all marketed under The Amen Solution brand. The package may be purchased at http://www.amenclinics.com or by calling 888-850-5287.

The BPB3 supplements were scientifically formulated by Daniel G. Amen, MD and the Amen Clinic research team. In the study, NFL players took the BPB3 supplements as an integral part of their high performance brain program. After six months, Dr. Amen said the players showed significant improvement in their cognitive functioning and proficiency, processing speed and accuracy, attention, reasoning, memory, spatial processing and reaction times. Some players showed remarkable improvement of up to 400 percent in these accepted measures of cognitive function.

"The study results were very impressive," said Dr. Amen, who is a double board certified psychiatrist, neuroscientist, brain-imaging researcher, New York Times bestselling author and founder of ACI. "We had players double and triple memory scores, lose weight, and dramatically improve their overall cognitive function."

Dr. Amen said Anthony Davis, 54, had the brain of an 85-year-old prior to going on Amen's protocol.

"I've felt a tremendous turnaround. This program changed my life and these supplements stay with me 24-7. My comprehension is better. I read better," said Davis who is a College Football Hall of Fame running back, also known as the "Notre Dame Killer." "Everything starts with your brain. If your brain is not right, your body is not right. And it creates a lot of other problems."
