Brain Boost Mind Support is a supplement which combines natural herbs and nootropics to provide a mental boost. It’s distributed by Texas company BioGanix. This product has the potential to help people of all ages, even older adults at risk of cognitive decline. The benefits of the nootropic ingredients aren’t limited to a specific group of people. BioGanix says their mission is to get as many people as possible to live a long, healthy, happy life, and if they need to lose weight, they should be able to do that without any hassle.

Overview

1) Quick Overview

Brain Boost contains 9 active ingredients in capsule form. This includes DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol bitartrate), an organic compound which has the potential to improve memory, energy levels, and overall mood. It might help with performance in physical exercise when combined with certain ingredients. Usually DMAE is blended with vitamins, minerals, and ginseng to get those physical effects. However, this product is meant to be more of a cognitive enhancer than physical enhancer. Because of DMAE’s effects on the mind, it’s sometimes called “a mind health compound.” It can work itself into multiple roles, though, especially since N-Acetyl-L Carnitine is present in this product.

Nutrition Facts

2) Brain Boost Mind Support Nutrition Facts

Brain Boost Mind Support contains the following ingredients: Ginkgo biloba Leaf, Phosphatidylserine Complex, N-Acetyl L-Carnitine HCI, St. John’s Wort, L-Glutamine, Dimethylaminoethanol Bitartrate, Bacopa monnieri Leaf Extract, Vinpocetine, Huprenzine-A, Gelatin, Vegetable magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide

3) Does Brain Boost Mind Support Work?

Capsules contain Ginkgo Biloba, Phosphatidylserine, and St. John’s Wort. Phosphatidylserine is key in maintaining cellular function in the brain, and is used to improve overall mental function. There’s 125 mg of a phosphatidyl complex in Brain Boost Mind Support, which includes lecithin and phosphatidylserine, so you’re getting much less than the common serving of 200 mg phosphatidylserine supplements often have. If taken in doses over 300 mg, some people report side effects like upset stomach and insomnia, so perhaps BioGanix wanted to stay on the safe side, even if you want a double dose.

St. John’s Wort is a medicinal herb which is generally used as an anti-inflammatory. There’s some evidence to show it can be an effective treatment for mild to moderate depression in humans, although more studies on that are needed. Different countries have ended up with different results, so it’s hard to perform a comprehensive analysis of existing research. It has been present in traditional medicine for hundreds of years though, and remains popular even today. Some people specifically seek out supplements that use St. John’s Wort, and they won’t take nootropics without it.

Claims

4) Brain Boost Mind Support Claims

  • Uses common supplement ingredients which consumers of nootropics are proven to enjoy. There’s little doubt that this will be effective for most people.
  • Free of stimulants like sugar and caffeine.

Warnings

5) Brain Boost Mind Support Product Warnings

  • This is a typical nootropic that doesn’t do much to differentiate itself from competitors. The same combination of ingredients has been used for many other supplements and there isn’t any specific benefit to using Brain Boost over a similar product. Your purchase will partly depend on how much you like BioGanix compared to other companies.
  • Some similar supplements offer 60 capsules per bottle instead of 30, but have almost the same exact price.

Cost

6) How Much Does Brain Boost Mind Support Cost?

The price is relatively average, and on the higher end rather than the middle. You can get free shipping and discounts on bulk orders, but the price is still higher than supplements using a similar formula. The price is decent, but it’s not the best possible price for this type of supplement, unless there’s a limited time only deal going on. BioGanix does have a 365 day money back guarantee if you order from their site.

How To Take

7) How to Take Brain Boost Mind Support

Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALCAR) is an amino acid naturally produced in your body. It’s included in supplements to boost virility, memory, and energy. It might reduce effects of Lyme disease and depression, and this requires more research to verify. Generally ALCAR is used to provide additional energy to your cells, and penetrates the blood brain barrier to ensure nutrients go where they need to be. Side effects are rare but can include nausea, vomiting, and restlessness.

Conclusion

8) Conclusion

The response to Brain Boost Mind Support has been largely positive. This is despite the disclaimer on BioGanix’s website saying that testimonials shouldn’t been seen as indicative of typical results, and that your results may vary. This is true, although their ingredients list seems decent. The inclusion of amino acids is often a small measure of proven quality in a supplement. The ability for ingredients to penetrate the blood brain barrier is important for ensuring that your brain gets the nutrients it needs. Maintaining proper circulation is necessary for maximum health and alertness. For a general brain boosting nootropic, Brain Boost Mind Support might be a good purchase.
