Usage: neuritic acid, also known as shark acid, is an unsaturated fatty acid with 24 carbon atoms and 1 double bond, which exists in nerve tissue and fish oil. It is named because it was first found in shark brain. It is a component of cerebroside, with a melting point of 42 ℃. It mainly comes from shark brain and shark oil. Developed countries hunt and kill a large number of sharks in order to obtain neuraminic acid. With the continuous calls of international organizations to ban sharks and the shortage of neuraminic acid resources, Europe, America and other countries attach great importance to excavating neuraminic acid from plants and have achieved preliminary results. Neuritic acid is recognized by scientists all over the world as the first and only double effect magical substance that can repair and dredge the damaged brain nerve pathway - nerve fibers and promote the regeneration of nerve cells. Neuritic acid is the core natural component of brain nerve fibers and nerve cells. The lack of nerve acid will cause brain diseases such as stroke sequelae, Alzheimer's disease, cerebral palsy, brain atrophy, memory loss, insomnia and forgetfulness. Neuritic acid is difficult to be produced by the human body itself and can only be supplemented by in vitro intake.
The name is derived from the fact that there is a double bond in the fatty tissue of shark and nerve, which is the first one in the fatty acid of shark. It is a component of cerebroside, with a melting point of 42 ℃. It mainly comes from shark brain and shark oil. Developed countries hunt and kill a large number of sharks in order to obtain neuraminic acid. With the continuous calls of international organizations to ban sharks and the shortage of neuraminic acid resources, Europe, America and other countries attach great importance to excavating neuraminic acid from plants and have achieved preliminary results.
