What are Plasmalogens?
A Key Part of Every Cell Membrane--All 30 Trillion of Them.
Every cell is surrounded by a membrane that controls communication, energy flow, and how the body responds to stress.
Plasmalogens are a key part of that structure.. all 30 trillion of them.
But plasmalogen levels decline with age.
When levels decline across trillions of cells, the effect compounds, impacting the very functions that support (your client's) health.
Key Functions of Plasmalogens Include:
- Membrane integrity and stability
- Cell signaling and receptor function
- Mitochondrial function and cellular energy
- Protection against lipid peroxidation
- Peroxisomal activity and lipid metabolism
Plasmalogens Are Critical To All Cells.
Brain - Plasmalogens solidify and amplify the signals between neurons to optimize physical and cognitive performance.
Blood - People with high blood plasmalogens were 80% less likely to experience dementia and are proven to live longer.
Cell Walls - Plasmalogens are the building blocks of healthy cells, including building and strengthening the myelin sheath in neuronal cells.
Lungs - Plasmalogens are key components of lung cell membranes,supporting membrane integrity and contributing to antioxidant defense at the cellular level.
Heart - Plasmalogens strengthen the heart muscle by reinforcing the cellular structure and function and preventing premature oxidation.
Hair & Nails - Plasmalogens in nail beds and hair follicles allow richer & thicker hair and healthier & faster-growing nails.
Aging - Antioxidant free radical that acts as the body's first line of defense against oxidation, disease and aging.
Eyes - Plasmalogens are vitally important in the membranes of neuronal tissues that link the brain and the retina. The higher the plasmalogen levels, the lower the risk of glaucoma.
White Matter Plasmalogens
Structural support for myelin and membrane integrity
White matter plasmalogens support the structure and stability of myelin-the protective layer that enables efficient nerve signaling.
They help maintain membrane integrity, insulation, and overall function across the nervous system.
This is the focus of ProdromeGlia™.
Grey Matter Plasmalogens
Functional support for signaling and neurotransmission
Grey matter plasmalogens play a key role in how brain cells communicate.
They support neurotransmitter release, receptor activity, and overall signaling-helping maintain how the brain processes and responds to information.
This is the focus of PlasmalogenN3™.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between ProdromeGlia™ and PlasmalogenN3™?
What is the difference between ProdromeGlia™ and PlasmalogenN3™?
ProdromeGlia™ is formulated with omega-9 plasmalogen precursors to support glial cell membranes, white matter, and overall neural stability. PlasmalogenN3™ contains omega-3 (DHA) plasmalogen precursors designed to support neuronal cell membranes, cognitive function, and neuromuscular performance. Together, they provide complementary support for different cell types within the nervous system.
Can ProdromeGlia™ and PlasmalogenN3™ be taken together?
Can ProdromeGlia™ and PlasmalogenN3™ be taken together?
Yes. These two supplements are commonly used together because they target different components of the nervous system. PlasmalogenN3™ primarily supports neurons, while ProdromeGlia™ focuses on glial cells, helping provide comprehensive support for healthy brain cell membranes and overall nervous system function.
How should I take these supplements?
How should I take these supplements?
The most common recommendation is to take 2 softgels daily , or as directed by your healthcare professional. Some individuals may begin with a temporary loading phase of 4–8 softgels daily for 1–3 months , depending on professional guidance. ProdromeGlia™ is often recommended for evening use due to its potential calming effect.
Are these products suitable for people with common food allergies?
Are these products suitable for people with common food allergies?
ProdromeGlia™ is formulated without milk, fish, egg, shellfish, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, yeast, gluten, or soy. Both products use bovine-derived gelatin softgels. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or have a medical condition, consult your healthcare provider before use.
What makes ProdromeGlia™ and PlasmalogenN3™ unique?
What makes ProdromeGlia™ and PlasmalogenN3™ unique?
Both supplements are manufactured in the USA under GMP standards using patented plasmalogen precursor technology. They are designed to deliver highly purified, stable plasmalogen precursors that support healthy cell membrane composition, cellular resilience, and normal nervous system function through research-driven formulations.
