RealLionsMane™ is a concentrated Lion’s Mane mushroom extract. Lion’s Mane is one of the most popular nootropics, because of actions it has that support brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), nerve growth, neuroprotection, and brain health. It supports neurotrophic and neuroprotective mechanisms in the brain.*

Nutricog® is a clinically studied combination of the Ayurvedic herbs Haritaki (Terminalia chebula) and Shallaki (Boswellia serrata). These herbs support neuroprotective functions, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and acetylcholine signaling. Nutricog supports learning capacity and rate, executive functions, working memory, visual attention, and decision making.*

Celastrus paniculatus — the intellect tree — seeds have been used in South Asia as a brain tonic to support mental sharpness and memory, and address mental fatigue. SmartSeed™ is a proprietary extract only found in Qualia. It supports acetylcholine signaling, which is an important neurotransmitter involved in attention, concentration, learning, memory, and neuroplasticity.*

Lutein and zeaxanthin are carotenoids best known for supporting eye health, because they accumulate in the macula area of the retina of eyes. They are also brain–essential nutrients, playing important roles in neuroprotection, neuronal communication, brain network connectivity, and the health of brain white and gray matter.*

Guarana is a caffeine-containing plant native to the Amazon, where it was used to stay awake longer and support brain performance. Similar to other caffeine-containing plants, it promotes activity and energy metabolism in the brain. It also indirectly affects the release of neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin, which are involved in alertness, feelings of energy, mood, and motivation.*

Sabroxy® is made from the dried bark of the Indian trumpet tree (Oroxylum indicum). It supports brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), so helps to maintain neurological health and nerve functions. Sabroxy contains a flavonoid called oroxylin A that supports dopamine signaling, so this nootropic extract is used to support motivation and focus.*

Saffron is a spice derived from the dried stigmata of the plant Crocus sativus. It has a number of functions in the brain, including influencing the reuptake by neurons of some neurotransmitters (e.g., dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin) reuptake and activity of others (e.g., GABA, glutamate). Saffron also supports brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and vision.*

Coffeeberry® is made from organic coffee fruits; it contains the naturally occurring caffeine and polyphenols found in the fruit. Similar to other caffeine-containing plants, it promotes activity and energy metabolism in the brain. It also indirectly affects the release of neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin, which are involved in alertness, feelings of energy, mood, and motivation.*
