Lumonol Brain Oil is a fish oil supplement with Omega-3s that can help keep a healthy heart and brain. It’s manufactured for Avanse Nutraceuticals, a company who isn’t very forthcoming with details about themselves. They’re relatively new to the supplement market but already have a large following. They aren’t too active on social media, with just a small Facebook page. They once had a Twitter and Youtube channel, but those profiles now appear to be deleted. Avanse says their products are manufactured by a GMP certified supplement manufacturer in an FDA registered laboratory, which is always a mark of quality.

Synopsis

1) Lumonol Brain Oil at a Glance

Each capsule of Brain Oil has 2000 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids, including 400 mg EPA and 200 mg DHA. The source is listed as Norwegian fish oil – a mix of anchovy, sardine, and mackerel. These types of fish are higher in Omega-3s than some other types. Fish oil has numerous benefits, primarily because of these Omega-3s. Fish oil often has a great impact on mental health and keeping a strong heart, with additional benefits for your joints and vision. As such, it’s good for people of all ages, and is relevant all throughout your life.

What’s Inside?

2) What’s Inside Lumonol Brain Oil?

Lumonol Brain Oil contains the following ingredients: Vitamin E (10 IU), Total Omega-3 Fatty Acids (2 g), EPA (800 mg), DHA (400 mg).

3) Does Lumonol Brain Oil Work?

One serving of Brain Oil delivers a big punch of Omega-3s. 800 mg EPA, 400 mg DHA, and 10 IU vitamin E. It claims to deliver 2,000 mg of Omega-3s total, which is unusually high. Even if it’s 2,000 mg of fish oil, this product still has a lot of EPA and DHA. Fish oil is one of those things that’s always considered helpful. It’s often best with the young and the old, but anyone can get benefits as long as they take the right amounts. High EPA levels (with low DHA levels) are best for the average adult. If you’re very young, old, or pregnant, you’ll want a lot more DHA. This maximizes the effectiveness of the Omega-3 fatty acids. They’re important because they help cognitive function, maintain blood pressure, improve heart health, and more. Omega-3s are essential for all people, regardless of age. Supplements of it do a lot toward maintaining long-term health. Lumonol Brain Oil uses citrus flavored gelatin capsules, for easy swallowing.

Claims

4) What Lumonol Brain Oil Does?

  • Citrus flavor to help mask the potential taste of fish oil.
  • Only Omega-3s. No extraneous fish oil which might cause fish burps or other side effects.

Warnings

5) Lumonol Brain Oil Product Warnings

  • Expensive price tag which gets more expensive the more capsules you take.
  • Quality is not guaranteed by an independent organization like IFOS (The International Fish Oil Standards Program) but that’s a very minor disadvantage at most. A product doesn’t need IFOS testing to be a quality product.

Cost

6) Lumonol Brain Oil Cost

Each bottle contains 60 capsules and it’s recommended that you take two a day with meals, and no more than 4 capsules every 24 hours. Your price will vary considerably, depending on how often you take Brain Oil. For many people, the price will be above average. Avanse does have a subscription plan, and sells under MSRP, so you can definitely save some money in the long run.

The company offers a 90 day money back guarantee. You can email them any time within 90 days of your order to request a refund. After you send the product(s) back, Avanse issues a refund, minus the shipping costs. Even if you get free shipping, they’ll deduct the cost from your refund. This is all laid out on their website, so there aren’t any potential surprises. They also ship internationally.

How To Take

7) How to Take Lumonol Brain Oil

Most adults will want more EPA than DHA, and Lumonol Brain Oil does this. Certain groups (under 18, over 55, and women who are pregnant or nursing) will want a supplement with more DHA than EPA. Sometimes with fish oil supplements there’s a chance of side effects. If they appear at all, they tend to be mild things like burping or having breath with a fishy odor. You can improve your chances of avoiding adverse effects by taking your fish oil with food, or freezing capsules before eating or swallowing them. In most cases, you won’t see side effects unless you take an excessive amount, or your fish oil is very low quality. Brain Oil doesn’t look like a product which would have side effects, given the high amounts of Omega-3s.

Does it Work

8) Bottom Line – Does It Really Work?

Lumonol products are widely considered excellent, with most reviews and testimonials praising the company behind them. The supplements tend to command a premium price, although many people believe the price is justified considering the benefits. Brain Oil likewise appears to be a premium product with a high amount of EPA and other Omega-3s. Avanse calls this a pharmaceutical grade triple strength Omega-3 supplement, and that seems accurate. Anyone who wants a general cognitive enhancer and health nootropic don’t need to look any further than this product.
