“I want to share an update on my mum since I started her on cGP about 3 weeks ago. I noticed quite a change last week when I went to visit. Over the last 3-4 months she had declined to the point of sleeping most of the time, unable to string a sentence together and would mumble a few words that didn’t make sense. She had effectively stopped communicating. Last week she was chatty!! This took me by surprise as I haven’t had a two-way conversation with my mum for a long time. She asked after my sister and remembered. When we were walking together down the hallway, we went past a picture of the Tower Bridge in London which had a double decker bus in it and when I asked her where it was she told me it was London! Gobsmacked!!
I didn’t want to get my hopes up but when I went in today, she was the same. The manager of the facility wanted to chat to me about mum and said it was like some sort of miracle and that it felt like they were meeting a new person, all of the staff had noticed this.
This is extremely exciting for our family and mum and even if this is all we get to it is so much better than how she was.”
Dr. Vishakha Mahajan, Research Scientist working in the Longevity space with cGP Lab, says:
‘This story came from a son who talking about his mum with Dementia. Over the years, we have collected anecdotal stories of families who believe in cGP supplementation. This includes children who have seen a positive impact on their parents, partners emphasising how thrilled they are to see their loved one address them by their names, and individuals who have taken charge of their health and endeavoured to have an improved quality of life.’
Statistics suggest that almost 40% of people experience some form of memory loss as they age especially, after the age of 65. Chief Neuroscientist, Dr. Jian Guan dedicated 30 years of her life investigating cyclic Glycine Proline (cGP) a molecule critical for ‘healthy ageing.’ Jian discovered cGP in several food sources and together with The cGP Lab, developed a range of supplements aimed at supporting healthy ageing.
MEMORY is defined as the ‘power or process of reproducing or recalling’ but is so much more than it seems. It is in fact the essence of who we are, our likes and dislikes, how our loved ones made us feel and the comfort of knowing you’re in control. There are many forms of memory loss, from being mildly ‘annoying’ to being severe and presenting itself as dementia, encompassing a wide range of symptoms. Researchers across the world are trying to decode the details of the ageing process, that remains largely elusive.
Despite a lot being unknown, advances in science and research have enabled an enhanced understanding of these symptoms with many of them now being managed with medications and lifestyle changes.

Is this drug available in NZ.
Yes it is created in New Zealand – you will find details here https://cgpmax.com/
Hello, you don’t usually endorse any product in your emails, what is your experience of this drug? Joy
Would eating more of the food that contains cGP be helpful as a prevention?
And what are they?
I do not have dementia but am 82yrs. I will try a 3 month course only because this has come from Brainfit. I will tell you in 3 months if it was worth my $202 investment
Hello Joy, you are quite correct. We seldom endorse any supplements unless they are prescribed or recommended by your medical doctor.
We have been associated with Dr Jian Guan for ten years now, while she was conducting her extensive research at the Centre for Brain Research at The University of Auckland. You can see some of her studies here. https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/Jian-Guan-2110663213 (For two and a half of those years, I chaired the Human Participant Ethics Committee for The University of Auckland.)
We have been informed along the way of the results of Jian’s research and her work has been endorsed internationally. Clinical trials are ongoing. These articles are to inform our readers rather than to promote sales. That said, I have been taking the capsules for almost a year now and they have been beneficial for me. Just so you know, Dr Jian Guan is Brainfit’s Chief Scientist with expertise in neuroscience, working with Dr Vish Mahajan as Research Scientist.
I will be very interested to know of your experience also. It’s a good idea to make notes about how you are feeling now – maybe try rating your memory again here? https://www.brainfit.world/one-rate-your-memory/
Hi Sophia,
Many thanks for your question. With age, the body’s demand for cGP increases while the body is unable to produce enough cGP to meet these demands. Poor sleep, stress and lifestyle choices all increase the need for cGP.
While yes you may be able to get some level of cGP from food sources, it may not be consistent enough to be present in all food varieties and not sufficient to meet the body’s demands. For eg. Blackcurrants do contain cGP however, after an extensive R and D work by The cGP Lab, it was discovered that it was only a specific variety of blackcurrants that contains cGP and not all blackcurrants. Upon further testing we also found that there was no trace of cGP in other blackcurrant products or blackcurrant juices that are available at the market.
The discovery of cGP in food sources is fairly recent and was done by Dr. Jian Guan. So along with her, we’re still learning more on it.

Sounds amazing. Does this drug help just memory loss.
It is not a drug but is a natural product found in certain natural materials and also in the brain.
Yes, that’s true. The research involved helped to isolate its purpose and effects. We are fortunate to live at a time when rsearch is uncovering all sorts of useful information.
Hi Jean,
Thank you for your comment. While The cGP Lab has not undertaken any formal clinical trials proving the association with memory loss. There is significant research in the literature that show that low IGF-1 levels have been associated with brain ageing, cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s Disease. cGP works by normalizing IGF-1 Function, as discovered and reported by Dr. Guan.
In a research study in the elderly population it was shown that people with more cGP had better cognitive retention.

Anecdotally, over the years, the cGP lab has accumulated testimonials from customers who have reported positive feedback with regards to memory and cognition. please feel free to reach out incase you have any more questions.
