Why Souvenaid® Memory Drink?

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Souvenaid®?
Souvenaid® is a medical nutrition drink that nutritionally supports memory function in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. Taken once daily for at least 6 months, Souvenaid has been shown to benefit people during the early stages. What makes Souvenaid® so unique is its patented formula known as Fortasyn™ Connect, a combination of nutrients which provide the nutritional building blocks to support growth of brain connections. It takes time for these nutrients to be taken up and used by the body, so there is no noticeable effect straight away. Therefore, it is important to keep taking Souvenaid® every day to ensure a continuous and adequate supply of important nutrients for the brain.
Who is Souvenaid® for?
Souvenaid® is for people who are in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. The clinical benefit of Souvenaid® has so far only been demonstrated in people during the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. Souvenaid® must be used under medical supervision.
What does Souvenaid® contain?
Souvenaid® contains a unique combination of nutrients known as Fortasyn™ Connect, at levels difficult to achieve from normal dietary intake alone. This combination of nutrients in Souvenaid® supports brain health and includes fish oil, phospholipids, choline, uridine monophosphate, vitamin E, vitamin C, vitamin B12, vitamin B6 and folic acid. The unique combination of nutrients is designed to support memory performance in people living with early Alzheimer’s disease.
How does Souvenaid® work?
There is a growing body of evidence showing that people with memory loss in early Alzheimer’s disease often have low levels of some key nutrients (omega-3 fatty acids, uridine monophosphate, phospholipids, b-vitamins and choline), despite eating a normal diet. Souvenaid® has been designed to provide these essential nutrients that are required for synapse formation.
How does Souvenaid® support memory function?
Souvenaid® provides the nutrients required, in addition to a person’s normal daily dietary intake, to support synapse formation which in turn is associated with memory function. Therefore, Souvenaid® nutritionally supports memory function in people during the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
How should Souvenaid® be taken?
Souvenaid® is a single serve drink making it easy and convenient for people to take. It can be consumed straight from the bottle, through a straw or popped into a glass. It comes in three flavours - vanilla, strawberry and cappuccino. It tastes best served chilled, so we recommend keeping a few bottles in the fridge.

Souvenaid® is a medical nutrition drink clinically proven to be beneficial in the dietary management of people with early Alzheimer’s disease. Clinical trials of Souvenaid® in combination with coconut oil or food supplements have not been carried out.
Why can't I just take fish oil and other vitamin supplements to get the same benefits for a fraction of the cost?

In early Alzheimer’s disease, dietary intake of nutrients may be affected by worsening of appetite, taste and smell, which lead to reduced food consumption, food neglect and changes in food preferences. In addition, research suggests that people with early Alzheimer’s disease have higher requirements than people without the disease for certain nutrients supporting brain function.
