Nootropics
Boost your productivity with organic, plant-based and natural nootropics.
Nootropic supplements are basically herbal food supplements that have a beneficial effect on brain function and improve mental performance. Used interchangeably with the term ‘adaptogens’, natural nootropics may often contain or be consumed alongside caffeine, as they balance out many of the negative side effects with amino acids, herbal enhancers like ginseng and ginkgo biloba, or functional mushrooms. Some examples of nootropics include ashwagandha, creatine and l-theanine.
Nootropic supplements work to increase your brain's mental functions, such as memory, creativity, motivation and attention. Some nootropics may improve focus and attention in individuals with ADHD by enhancing neurotransmitter activity in the brain, particularly dopamine and norepinephrine, while others have anxiety-reducing effects by modulating neurotransmitter levels in the brain. Nootropics can enhance cognitive function and alleviate brain fog by promoting neurotransmitter activity and improving blood flow to the brain. Some nootropic supplements can boost energy levels by increasing alertness and reducing fatigue.

Frequently asked questions
Nootropics are simply substances that enhance learning and memory while protecting the brain. There are various different substances that act as nootropics and help to enhance mental skills. These include herbs, minerals, fatty acids, vitamins and amino acids. Natural nootropic supplements are usually made from plant extracts, amino acids and other naturally-sourced nutrients.
Natural nootropics have been proven to provide some level of cognitive or mental enhancement. Nootropics can help to support an increase in oxygen flow and blood circulation to the brain, which in general is a major benefit for brain health. Plant based nootropic supplements are particularly effective when taken alongside other rituals, such as improving the quality of your sleep, lowering your stress levels and improving your diet.
There are a wide range of plant based nootropic supplements, so the time taken for them to have an effect will very much depend on the specific product in question. Some natural nootropics can take minutes to have an effect, while others will need to be consumed consistently over a matter of weeks in order to lead to beneficial results. The time it takes for organic nootropics to work will also depend upon factors like your body weight and brain chemistry.
Yes, most nootropics are safe and well-tolerated. Nootropics are - usually - natural substances made from compounds found in everyday foods and are processed by the body before crossing into the brain. However, even with nootropic supplements side effects such as headaches, increased blood pressure or insomnia are possible. Check with your GP if you have any concerns with the safety of nootropics.
