Laminine Clinical Studies Part 3

Small amino acid chain peptides, commonly known as oligopeptides are very easily

transported through the intestinal, membrane. They are sometimes used as transport

mechanisms for drugs.

Protein must be broken down to smaller and smaller peptides, and eventually an amino

acid to perform it’s functions. Dietary intake of peptides and amino acids, therefore, can

be extremely beneficial.

Peptides are the most abundant compounds in the hypothalamus of the brain, and

perform vital functions of communicating sensory impulses to the endocrine system

(hormone producing glands). Peptide based hormone‐releasing agents from the

hypothalamus use the anterior pituitary to signal the thyroid gland, the adrenal cortex,

the mammary gland, the ovaries & testicles and the growth hormone.

Understanding the mechanisms of the effect of peptides, and the types of peptides is a

complex field, and is being studied extensively. Unfortunately, these studies are done in

isolation and disregard the wholistic picture of the complex mechanisms, which exist in

our marvelous bodily electrochemical system. Further, the studies are focused on

promoting a particular amino acid, peptide or other neurotransmitter. While the results

identify the final activity with the amino acid/peptide, the mechanism of transport of

such critical amino acid/peptides to the final destination is a subject of major

arguments. These arguments cast a shadow on the importance of nutritional

supplements. Most doctors will tell you nutritional supplements “cannot hurt”, but stop

short of endorsing them. The reason is the lack of evidence that the active ingredients

have been formulated in the correct form, that is, intermediates or ligands that can

make the active ingredient available to the nervous or endocrine system of the brain.

At Pendura, we take a different approach. Our goal is to maximize benefits, not profits.

We strongly believe that it is not enough to understand the discrete end points of the

mechanisms of neurotransmission and regulation of bodily functions. If we are to

supplement this complex chemistry machine, we must try and duplicate the entire path

to the end result. We are not arrogant enough to claim that we (or the medical

community) understand this complex path to the end reaction. Our approach therefore

is to use the “natural PATH”, (not just isolated natural components) to supplement the

role of the amino acids in regulating the complex electrochemical machine we call the

human body. How do we achieve this?



Simple: Nature puts the most potent and balanced combination of not only amino acids

in short peptide chain form, but also other known (and unknown) factors such as

Fibroblast Growth Factor in blastodermal to protoembryonic fluids preceding the

formation of the crucial organs and embryo. We believe amino acids (in the form of di

and tripeptides) derived from such fluids combined with the growth factors are able to

enhance brain function because they are “precisely” engineered  to support the most

complex stage of birth of a living creature, the beginning; just like the take off is the

most complex function in flying an airplane, or the foundation and construction is the

most complex function in the life of a building.
