The present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the invention, and it is not intended to limit the invention to the specific embodiments illustrated by the figures or descriptions.
The present invention is a composition for a nutraceutical formulation for treating anxiety-based disorders. A nutraceutical, also knows as “bioceutical”, is a food product or supplement that may help support health, prevent disease, or provide some other benefit. The formulation of the present invention is specifically designed to reduce anxiety and increase quality of life in people with Autistic Spectrum of Disorders (ASD) and other anxiety-based disorders which affect areas of the brain such as the hypothalamus and hippocampus. This is accomplished through a variety of ingredients known to be helpful in this regard and provided in specific proportions to each other in order to properly produce the desired effect.
In various embodiments of the present invention, the formulation of the present invention can be provided in various forms for oral consumption such as, but not limited to, capsules, gummies, chewable tables, pills of any shape or form, or other forms of consumption. The consumable forms of the formulation may be provided with or without flavoring ingredients. In some embodiments of the present invention, the formulation of the present invention may also be provided in other forms of non-oral consumption, such as, but not limited to, time-delivery patches, suppositories, or injections.
Referring to
Thus, the quantity of thiamine, the quantity of riboflavin, the quantity of niacin, the quantity of vitamin B6, the quantity of folic acid, the quantity of vitamin B12, the quantity of biotin, the quantity of pantothenic acid, the quantity of choline bitartrate, the quantity of inositol, the quantity of PAPA, the quantity of ashwagandha, the quantity of flavor carrier, the quantity of rhodiola, the quantity of GABA, and the quantity of magnesium are homogeneously mixed, processed, or otherwise combined into a nutraceutical formulation through any suitable known or new manufacturing process. As previously mentioned, the nutraceutical formulation may take the form of one or more pills, capsules, gummies, chewable tablets, candies, food products, or other form suitable for human consumption.
In another preferred embodiment, a quantity of cannabidiol (CBD) oil is further comprised, and the quantity of CBD oil is further homogenously mixed into the nutraceutical formulation.
It should be noted that the constituent ingredients of the present invention are provided specifically in proportion to each other, wherein the proportions disclosed herein are considered necessary for proper effectiveness of the nutraceutical formulation of the present invention in reducing anxiety in a user/consumer of the present invention. Each component should generally not vary from its listed percentage by weight by half a percent in some embodiments, or by one percent in other embodiments. The ratio of each ingredient to each other ingredient should remain approximately the same regardless of the total amount of any given ingredient in the nutraceutical final product.
It is further noted that a recommended treatment dose of the present invention for treatment of anxiety in a user is determined according to bodyweight. Users with higher bodyweight are recommended to ingest proportionally more of the nutraceutical formulation then users with lower bodyweight. For example, a typical dose of the nutraceutical formulation in some embodiments may be equivalent to three capsules. A lighter user may be recommended to take two capsules of the nutraceutical formulation, while a heavier user may be recommended to take the full three capsules of the nutraceutical formulation.
