Semax: The Nootropic Brain Peptide

Semax is another neuropeptide developed in Russia, renowned for its potent nootropic and neuroprotective properties. It works primarily by increasing levels of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), a crucial protein that supports the survival of existing neurons and encourages the growth of new neurons and synapses. This makes Semax a powerful tool for enhancing cognitive function, including memory, focus, and learning. Its link to biological age is centered on its ability to protect and repair the brain. Cognitive decline is a hallmark of aging, and by promoting neural plasticity and protecting against neuronal damage, Semax can help maintain a more youthful and resilient brain. It is also noted to have stress-reducing effects, further helping to combat a key accelerator of aging. Like Selank, it is administered as a nasal spray to ensure it effectively reaches the brain.
