Functions & features

What Milkogni does

Composition of the brain cell membrane
Activation of neurotransmitters
Improvement of memory and cognition

The marker compound is sphingomyelin. Recovered and concentrated by ultrafiltration followed by ethanol extraction, the process is designed to enrich the membrane-derived phospholipid fraction while keeping the marker compound intact, supporting brain cell membrane structure, neurotransmitter activity, and memory and cognitive function.

Human clinical trial

Clinical results

23%

Greater improvement in attention and concentration (Auditory CPT) versus placebo.

+3.81

Intra-group improvement in Auditory CPT attention score in the test group.

The trial was conducted at Yangsan Pusan National University Hospital, where 100 adult men and women consumed Milkogni for 12 weeks. The test group showed a significant 23% greater improvement in attention and concentration (Auditory CPT) relative to the placebo group. Milkogni was proven safe over the 12-week consumption period.
