CNS diseases include a broad spectrum of disorders in which the brain or spinal cord functioning is diminished or impaired, resulting in diminished motor, sensory, or cognitive performance. The rising prevalence of CNS disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and depression, drives the demand for effective CNS therapeutics. Furthermore, the pandemic has resulted in increased stress levels, anxiety, depression and other mental conditions. This has led to an increased demand for CNS therapies.

Sam's Club says it plans to remove synthetic dyes from private brand by end of 2025
BENTONVILLE, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — Sam's Club announced on Thursday plans to eliminate more than 40 ingredients from its private label brand, Member's Mark, by the end of the year. The wholesale chain said in a news release that under the initiative, 'Made Without,' it will alter its food and beverage products to offer items without certain ingredients in order to cater to specific dietary preferences. In April, U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary announced plans to phase out several types of artificial, petroleum-based dyes used as food coloring in various snacks, drinks and desserts that line grocery shelves, mainly citing kids' health as the reason for the move. 'We take pride in the high-quality ingredients that go into our products, but what truly differentiates us are the ingredients we consciously leave out,' Julie Barber, chief merchant at Sam's Club, said. 'Our 'Made Without' commitment underscores our aspiration to be members' go-to destination for quality at a disruptive value. For us, it's about listening to our members and providing the items that resonate with their lifestyles.' Here is the list of ingredients Sam's Club plans to eliminate from its 'Made Without' products: Acesulfame-K (Acesulfame Potassium) (Ace-K) Acetylated Ester of Mono & Diglycerides (ACETEM) Artificial Flavors Aspartame Azodicarbonamide (ADA) Benzyl Alcohol Butylated hydroxy anisole (BHA) Butylated Hydroxytoluene (BHT) Butylparaben Certified Synthetic Colors/FD&C Colors Cocamide DEA Cyclamates Cyclopentasiloxane Cyclotetrasiloxane Dioctyl Sodium Sulfosuccinate (DSS) DMDM Hydantoin Ethyl Vanillin Formaldehyde Hexa, Hepta, Octa Esters of Sucrose High Fructose Corn Syrup Lactylated Esters of Mono & Diglycerides (OLEON) Methylparaben Neotame Phthalates Potassium Bisulfate Potassium Bisulfite Potassium Nitrate/Nitrite Propyl Gallate Propylparaben Saccharin (All) Simplesse Sodium Ferrocyanide Sodium Propionate Sucroglycerides Sucrose Polyester Talc Tertiary Butylhydroquinone (Except for our 35-pound food service frying oils) Toluene Sam's Club said it has already released cookies and other snacks without artificial colors.
