Description and Uses
Nervonic acid, also known as shark oil acid, is a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid that exists in nerve tissue and fish oil. It was first discovered in shark brain and is a component of cerebroside, the main source of in shark brain and shark oil. It is also found in the sphingolipids of white matter in human brain. It is the only dual-action miracle substance that can repair nerve fibers that unblock damaged nerve pathways in the brain and promote nerve cell regeneration. Nervonic acid has been identified as important in the biosynthesis of nerve cell myelin. It is used in the treatment of disorders involving demyelination, such as adrenoleukodystrophy and multiple sclerosis where there is a decreased level of nervonic acid in sphingolipids.
Found in sphingolipids of the white matter of the human brain, neuronic acid is the only magical substance with a dual role in brain development, repairing nerve fibers, unblocking damaged neural pathways in the brain, and promoting nerve cell regeneration. Neuroic acid is very important in the biosynthesis of nerve cell myelin, which together with lignoceric acid accounts for 60% of the acylated fatty acids in white matter sphingomyelin. In demyelinating diseases such as adrenoleukodystrophy and multiple sclerosis, the amount of neuronic acid acylated to sphingolipids is highly reduced, and supplements rich in this fatty acid have been used to help treat these demyelinating diseases.
