With a funny name and an overwhelming amount of information on the internet, it can be easy to be confused. Below, we dive into the miracle compounds that can help power our workdays.
Nootropics hit the wellness scene a few years ago, bringing with them a level of productivity many had never experienced before from a natural supplement. A nootropic is any compound used to enhance memory or other cognitive functions, which means they’re incredibly useful for professionals, students, parents, and anyone who could use a mental boost (isn’t that all of us?)
Lion’s Mane and Ginseng and Gingko, Oh My!
A nootropic doesn’t just refer to one ingredient — it’s a category that includes many ingredients. Some of the most powerful natural nootropics include:
Lion’s mane
Ashwagandha
Rhodiola
CoQ10
Ginkgo biloba
Ginseng
…and of course, CBD.
Only the Best
The first rule of thumb in finding a great nootropic product: make sure it contains natural ingredients, like the above. Also, consider that many nootropics sold today contain caffeine, so if you want to avoid the mid-afternoon jitters (or worse, a crash), try to find something caffeine-free — especially if you like to enjoy a cup of joe in the morning. Lastly, remember that ingredients should work together to bring you optimal mental performance and endurance. It takes thoughtful ingredient stacking to make a product that can make a real difference on your brain and performance.
