Nootropics

Are there portions of your brain that you are not using to their full potential? Are there ways to avoid the classic 2pm coffee break? Is it possible to be more productive with just a pill?

One of the growing trends in the supplement industry seeks to answer these questions, it is the unbelievably popular group of Nootropics.

Nootropics is the current buzz nomenclature that is use to discuss and describe a massive range of supplements. These supplements are remarkably popular, they are said to increase the power of your mind. They are an ever increasingly popular option for those who work long hours, or who need extra focus. Movies like Limitless have shot an interest into many americans for these kind of products. The idea that without a prescription of adderall or modafinil, you could naturally unlock your brains "true' potential is a very exciting idea.

I will now discuss what 3 ingredients should be in a good Nootropic capsule or soft gel:

Ginkgo Biloba:

This funny named little leaf that grows on a tree bearing the same name originates from China, the Chinese medicinal practitioners have been using Ginkgo for hundreds of years. In today's society it has been studied and linked to increase blood flow to the brain which can help to improve mental clarity and focus. This is must have in any nootropic, be sure to get a ginkgo that is standardized to at least 24% to give you, or your customers the best chance at results.

St. Johns Wort:

If you live in the southern United States you have definitely seen St. Johns wort growing on the side of the highways, it is considered a weed by many. A significant amont of tests have been conducted though and show that this "weed" can increase your mood, it has similar effects as an anti depressant helping one to focus on the present.

Glutamine:

This great little amino acid occurs naturally in your body, it indicate to your body when to store fat, when to sleep, when to increase heart rate, and even when to dilate your eyes. When you add more of this to your body than the normal amounts, you will have increased brain function. Many doctors actually perscribe Glutamine to patients with ADHD and ADD to help them focus, so you cannot go wrong with Glutamine, just be sure to chat with your doctor on how much is safe for you (it will be based on your gender and weight).

There are hundreds of other nootropic products out there including; Bacopa, Rhodiola Rosea, graviola, and many more, howeve these three have a proven track record. If you are considering adding a nootropic to your personal regimen of supplements or your own private label, be sure it includes the above supplements.
