Researched NutritionalsBrain Supplements for Memory & Focus Support - BDNF Essentials - Bacopa Monnieri, Organic Lion's Mane & Herbal Supplements to Promote Healthy Cortisol Levels (120 Capsules)

Good product that works for me.

Very satisfied

Oddly, I can recognize the cognitive improvement after only two weeks

My choice

These moderately large gray-green capsules have a pleasant herbal smell and are easy to swallow with a slight herbal/mushroom aftertaste. This is because it contains a custom mix of mushroom (lion's mane) and herbs such as skullcap and ashwagandha. The neuro support comes also from the choline-related compounds and the phosphatidylserine (a fatty substance that protects nerve cells in your brain and enables them to communicate with each other). Choline is found in many foods, and it is used by your brain and nervous system to regulate memory, mood, muscle control, and other functions.This should be helpful in general, though I'm not aware of any specific studies for this particular formulation. I found this useful for occasional neuro-boost supplementation. See images for full label information, and size information.

This is a great nootropic / BDNF boosting supplement. I'm obsessed with nootropics, and even I like the formulation of this.It's lions mane mushroom (not an extract unfortunately), skullcap (also not an extract), black rice extract (standardized to 25% anthocyanins, Sensoril ashwagandha, bacopa extract, and CDP choline + Sharp-PS.I'm not a big fan of the proprietary blends, and unfortunately you have no way of knowing how much bacopa, ashwagandha, and black rice extract you are taking. It could be a good dose or it could be next to nothing.But the ingredients are excellent and the formulation is based in science. The black rice extract in particular is of special interest to me, and 25% anthocyanin content is a high potency extract. That plus bacopa plus CDP choline plus ashwagandha, and you have a very effective stack. The lions mane is good too assuming it's an extract and not just whole mushroom powder.Overall - good BDNF boosting supplement. I would also recommend Longvida curcumin, CognatIQ coffee fruit extract, astaxanthin, and exercise for boosting BDNF.

I have been taking this supplement a short time but I can see a difference in my energy level. As far as cognitive function, I can not tell yet. I will see how things go in the coming weeks.

I haven't noticed any cognitive improvements since taking this supplement. Granted, I wasn't having any problems prior, but since my entire life I've had problems with names (when I run into someone I haven't seen in a few years, they always remember my name but I can't remember theirs) I thought perhaps this would help with that. So far, at least, it hasn't made a difference. Perhaps it will take longer, or perhaps this supplement is designed for people with issues other than mine. I also realize that without any real "lab type" testing on me (before and after) my assessments are purely subjective. There is no downside to taking these (no stomach upset, for instance), but for me, at least, I see no benefit.
