Neurolon is a nootropic which claims to be the best brain supplement on the market. It’s distributed by Vitalife International Enterprise Incorporated, a company based out of Lewes, Delaware. They promise that this product is noticeably different from its competitors and you won’t experience side effects. It’s for anyone who is looking to improve focus, sharpness, productivity, mood, and more. It may even be able to improve stamina and overall performance while exercising. The company also uses facilities that follow FDA, GMP, and NSF regulations, which often leads to high purity and quality in products.

Ingredients

Neurolon contains the following ingredients: Bacopa Extract, Phosphatidylserine, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract, DHA Concentrate, DMAE, Korean Ginseng Root Powder, L-Glutamine, Vinpocetine, Huprenzine

Product Features

Each capsule contains 9 active ingredients. This includes ginkgo biloba, DMAE, and Korean ginseng root powder. DMAE (usually in the form of dimethylaminoethanol bitartrate, although Neurolon doesn’t specify what form here). DMAE is an organic compound that may improve memory, mood, and energy levels, along with providing other cognitive benefits. Combined with ginseng, it can potentially be effective for enhancing the quality and longevity of exercise routines. Most supplements tend to neglect the ginseng and focus solely on cognitive enhancement, but a well rounded product for body and mind can be more important. To really boost the effects of DMAE, vitamins and minerals could also be included, but in some cases ginseng should be enough to help.

The phosphatidylserine is likely derived from cabbage in Neurolon. If it was made from soy, the other most common ingredient, there should be an allergen warning on the label. Phosphatidylserine is a substance naturally found in our bodies and some of our foods, enhancing inter-cellular communication. 200 mg is a frequent serving and people don’t tend to encounter side effects unless they take more than 300 mg in one day.

Advantages

Excellent formula with high potency, quality, and even proper amounts of each ingredient. There isn’t any sugar or caffeine. The Bacopa monnieri is also superior to most other nootropic supplements.
The company makes a small contribution to charity for each bottle sold. They don’t offer much more detail than this, although they say it’s a different charity each month.

Disadvantages

Amazingly high price even after using a crowdfunding site for helping with the company’s expansion. It’s double to triple many other similar supplements – and that’s the most common sale price.
Vitalife doesn’t list some specifics about the ingredients already included and it’s hard to find a clear picture of the label. And although the capsules appear to be vegan friendly, Neurolon contains small amounts of fish oil (for DHA).

Conclusion

A lot of nootropics have common ingredients but in insufficient amounts, or the formula is lacking some important parts. Neurolon appears to be one of the few supplements of decent quality. There aren’t many reviews or testimonials, and it’s far from a bestseller, but the response so far has been positive. Vitalife says they’ve sold Neurolon for over three years and have thousands of satisfied customers, with no returns. If you want a premium nootropic with familiar natural ingredients, your search may end here.

Is Neurolon Right For You?

Neurolon is a nootropic supplement which promises to improve mental clarity, focus, and more. It’s sold by Delaware company Vitalife International Enterprise Inc. They say this is the premier product for brain alertness, stimulation, and growth. They even claim Neurolon can fight and reverse signs of cognitive decline, especially age related decline. The supplement is marketed toward anyone who might want its benefits. This includes teachers, students, athletes, and professionals.

Ingredients of Neurolon

Neurolon includes the following ingredients: Bacopa Extract, Phosphatidylserine, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract, DHA Concentrate, DMAE, Korean Ginseng Root Powder, L-Glutamine, Vinpocetine, Huprenzine

Effectiveness of Neurolon

Capsules primarily contain bacopa monnieri extract (with an implied 50% bacosides) and phosphatidylserine. 100 mg of each per capsule. With the exception of ginkgo biloba leaf extract, all other ingredients are 50 mg or less. Ginkgo biloba is generally regarded as the most ingested herb for brain health. It’s a popular nootropic and is known for its appearances in traditional Chinese medicine. Typical doses are 120 to 240 mg a day. You can start out smaller if you’re not used to it.

The Bacopa plant has long been used in traditional medicine. Like many ancient herbs and roots, it was used as treatment for a wide variety of problems. It does, however, have some scientific backing for a few things. Research shows it can be effective when used for memory, attention, anxiety, and mood. Specific types of bacopa extracts improve memory in older adults and children, and may improve hand eye coordination. There’s also research on epilepsy, asthma, aches and pains, and other conditions, but the research tends to be lacking. More evidence is needed before making a definitive statement on some bacopa benefits. Usually it’s studied in relation to memory and concentration. Bacopa monnieri is usually given in amounts of 300 mg daily when it has a standardized 20 to 25 percent bacosides. Neurolon says 50 percent, and although it doesn’t specify, one has to assume they mean 50 percent bacosides. In that case, the 200 mg in one serving of Neurolon is sufficiently potent.

Neurolon Price

The label recommends taking two tablets daily, and each bottle has 60 tablets total. For a one month supply the price is a little unreasonable. It’s extraordinarily expensive. Bottles are hardly ever sold for the crazy MSRP, but even at a discount, the price is still high. Neurolon is double the price of many similar nootropics. Despite the apparent heightened level of quality, and the free shipping, it’s difficult to understand why the price is high. There is, however, a 60 day money back guarantee.

Does Neurolon Work?

The formula looks effective with ingredients all in sufficient amounts. Neurolon claims to be a safe and powerful high performance natural supplement, and this might just be accurate. Vitalife says their largest concerns are responsibility, research, accessibility, and charity. The charity is part is interesting because the company says they run their own charities. They also say they donate approximately 5 percent of Neurolon’s sales to a different charity each month. Overall Neurolon looks like an excellent product you may want to try.
