Astroglia Pharma has announced the launch of NeuroClub to provide affordable, natural remedies for lack of focus, poor memory, mental stress, and improve brain health. Phillip Mertz - Founder & CEO, NeuroClub - Astroglia Pharma Pvt. Ltd. India delivered the keynote, along with Dr. Sriraman Damodaran, Chief Scientific Officer (Washington D.C) and Aditya Shrivastava, Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Mertz highlighted the need for brain health awareness in India and how NeuroClub can help students and corporate perform mental activities more efficiently, to be happier and more successful.

Most of them don’t want to seek professional help due to social stigmas and high cost.

For problems with any other part of the body, remedial means are understood. When people have trouble focusing or feel unnecessarily stressed, they don’t really think that it might be a health issue.”
Phillip Mertz, CEO, NeuroClub - AstroGlia Pharma Ltd noted, “Stressful work culture and demanding academic pressure makes NeuroClub products a necessity for the young population. Furthermore, NeuroClub's all-natural products can be consumed anytime, and their effects can be felt in the short term.”
NeuroClub is the over-the-counter brain health brand under AstroGlia. The products they are launching today are:
* Metanine makes neurons more sensitive to sensory inputs. This helps sustain concentration for longer.
* Seraxil relieves stress by stopping the panic response from being triggered during stressful situations.
