SagaMemo For Improved Memory
Herbal memory supplement to prevent dementia
SagaMemo is a herbal dietary supplement that can help prevent dementia and improve memory. It was developed by SagaMedica in Iceland as a result of extensive research into Icelandic medicinal herbs.
SagaMemo is a supplement for preventing dementia. This remedy is produced from two Icelandic medicinal herbs, Angelica archangelica and Geranium sylvaticum, (wood cranesbill).
SagaMedica's research has shown that these two medicinal herbs have a synergetic effect on levels of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This neurotransmitter is important for memory and low levels of acetylcholine are associated with dementia.
SagaMemo can be used to prevent dementia in cases of:
- Alzheimer´s disease
- Vascular dementia
Research indicates SagaMemo can possibly help people suffering from an impaired memory by increasing amounts of neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This is achieved by inhibiting activity of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which breaks down the neurotransmitter and causes memory loss.
Prevent vascular dementia
SagaMemo can also increase blood flow to the brain and this helps in preventing vascular dementia, which is the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer's disease.

Consult your doctor before you or someone close to you starts using dietary supplements to prevent dementia.
Our natural dementia remedy might help, but alternative medicine does not replace regular treatment of dementia.
