Artichoke Extract is a PDE4 inhibitor. PDE4 is an enzyme that breaks down cAMP molecules (messenger systems that relay signals in the brain). Stopping PDE4 then prevents the breakdown of cAMP. As a secondary messenger in neurons, cAMP produces proteins needed for neuron and synapse growth. This process is called Long-Term Potentiation which is required to form long-term memories. Artichoke Extract helps generate growth of dendrites on neurons. And helps reconstruct synapses, the junctions where nerve cells communicate with other neurons. Boosting memory and restoring neural networks. Artichoke Extract helps reduce inflammation in the brain. By preventing the over-production of cytokines, and taming the flames of inflammation in neurons. Preventing memory loss and neurological dysfunction. Neurohackers who used Artichoke Extract as a nootropic report that it improves mood and motivation, increases the ability to study, increases the ability to retain information and improves long-term memory. And if used with Forskolin, it even improves your mood.
