There is disclosed the use of a composition for promoting neuronal growth of neurons in tissues of the central or peripheral nervous system. There is also disclosed a method for inducing proliferation or differentiation of neuronal cells.

A traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating acute stage of cerebral infarction. The traditional Chinese medicine composition combines buffalo horns, unprocessed rehmannia roots, red paeony roots, cortex moutan, grassleaf sweelflag rhizome and turmeric root-tuber, and exerts the synergistic effects of the medicines through compatibility, thereby being capable of more effectively clearing away heat and toxic materials, cooling the blood, dissipating blood stasis and inducing resuscitation, and achieving the purpose of treating acute stage of cerebral infarction.

The present invention relates in some aspects to compositions (e.g., pharmaceutical, nutritional compositions, etc.), formulations, and food or beverage products comprising, consisting essentially of, or consisting of (a) -alanine or a derivative of -alanine, and (b) at least one agent that inhibits the N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) pathway or a pathway which converges downstream with the NMDA pathway. The compositions, formulations, and food or beverage products are useful for enhancing physical performance, reducing -alanine-induced paraesthesia, and improving tolerance and compliance to higher doses of -alanine, thereby reducing the length of time it takes to achieve peak effect of -alanine, and increasing the magnitude of peak effect on physical performance in a human or animal.
