Two compounds that no capsule, no food, and no other supplement delivers at the right dose. The reason Aegis works where everything else stopped.
Magnesium L-Threonate
Standard magnesium never reliably reaches your brain. It circulates in the blood, supports sleep and muscles, and stops there.
Magnesium L-Threonate was developed at MIT for one reason — it's the only form that crosses the blood-brain barrier and increases magnesium concentrations inside neurons.
When brain magnesium is low, synaptic density declines. The physical connections between neurons — the infrastructure of memory and cognitive flexibility — weaken and reduce in number.
A study in Neuron found it significantly increased synaptic density and improved both short and long-term memory. Standard magnesium produced no such effect.
It has no food source. The research dose is 2,000mg daily. No capsule delivers it at that dose alongside everything else this protocol requires.
L-Methylfolate
Your body converts dietary folate into L-methylfolate — the active form the brain uses for neurotransmitter synthesis and homocysteine regulation.
Except 40% of people carry a genetic variant called MTHFR that blocks this conversion almost entirely.
For four in ten people, every folate-rich food and every standard folate supplement has been delivering a fraction of what they thought. The active form never arrived.
Aegis supplies L-methylfolate directly in its active form — bypassing the conversion entirely.
You don't know if you're in the 40%. There's a real chance you are. Aegis works regardless.
