1. Improves memory and focus
PS supports brain cell communication, which can sharpen thinking, learning, and recall — especially under pressure or with age.
 
2. Reduces stress hormones (cortisol)
It helps lower cortisol levels, making you feel calmer and more balanced, especially after intense workouts or long stressful days.
 
3. Enhances mood
Because it stabilises stress response and brain chemistry, PS may help improve mood and reduce irritability.
 
4. Supports athletic recovery
It reduces muscle soreness and speeds up recovery by controlling stress hormones and inflammation after exercise.
 
5. May slow age-related cognitive decline
Research shows it can help older adults maintain sharper mental function, memory, and concentration.
 
6. Boosts attention and mental clarity
Often used to support focus in people with ADHD or high mental workloads.
