Choline Bitartrate- This is a form of choline which is used in the production of neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine. It has been shown in studies to improve mood, cognitive functioning, memory and muscular contractions.
Lions Mane- This is an edible mushroom (Hericium erinaceus) that helps with nerve development, function, and protection. It has been shown to combat inflammation in the brain and allows for improved nerve interaction by means of growth and repair. This effect improves cognitive function.
Alpha GPC- L-alpha Glycerophosphorylcholine is a precursor to parasympathomimetic acetylcholine and has been shown to enhance brain function, mood, and memory, as well as, help treat people with Alzheimer's and dementia. This form of choline is able to more easily cross the blood brain barrier. It is considered a natural nootropic and will cause a more attentive and alert feeling.
L-Theanine- This is an analogue of the amino acid glutamine. It is not used in the formation of proteins, but is used to stimulate the production of Gamma Amino Buteric Acid (GABA) in the brain, as well as, dopamine and serotonin. This helps to reduce anxiety and create a more relaxed affect. It also reduces cortisol. L-Theanine is found naturally occurring in green tea.
L-Tyrosine- This is a non-essential amino acid that is made in the body from the amino acid phenylalanine. It is used in protein synthesis. It is used by the body for the production of the neurotransmitters, dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine in the brain. It is also used in the body for the production of enzymes, melanin, and thyroid hormones. The increase in neurotransmitters can enhance alertness and mental clarity.
Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE)- This is an organic compound that can improve skin tone, but is primarily used as a natural nootropic and can enhance mood, mental alertness, and memory. It can also decrease symptoms of ADHD. It helps to protect and stabilize the cell membrane and it is found naturally in anchovies and sardines. It aids in the production of the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine and has a mild stimulant effect on the central nervous system.
Caffeine Anhydrous- This is a form of caffeine extracted from plants such as coffee and processed into its dehydrated form. Caffeine anhydrous gives a feeling of alertness which begins around 15 minutes after consumption.
Bacopa Monnieri- This is a plant called Water hyssop. It contains saponins and bacosides that help enhance the effects of neurotransmitters to improve memory, decrease depression, anxiety, stress, and symptoms of ADHD and prevent surges in dopamine levels. It works primarily by enhancing the use of acetylcholine and GABA.
Huperzine A- This is a chemical derived from Chinese/fir club moss. It enhances memory and cognitive function by inhibiting the enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine. Thus it makes acetylcholine have a longer, more powerful effect on the brain. It can enhance learning ability and reduce inflammation in the brain.
Phosphatidylserine- This is a phosolipid (a type of fat) that helps protect the cells in the brain and help in the communication between brain cells. This can improve memory, reduce anxiety, and speed the thought process. It also works as a potent inhibitor of the stress hormone, cortisol.
