Botanical Nootropics 101

We all are looking for better focus, concentration, and brain support!?Our brains are working 24/7 so we need to focus on our brain health.?While I certainly encourage doing all we can to support our brain health, we all have experienced time we just need a little bit more help!?Before we get into the nitty gritty of Nootropics, let’s review what we covered in last week’s newsletter.

In the last edition, our focus was centered around biohacking the brain.?We reviewed 3 simple steps you could incorporate into your daily routine to enhance your brain power. As a reminder, these steps included:

1.????Looking at plant botanicals for brain support

2.????Focusing on your mood and energy you put out into your world

3.????Making your nutrition a priority

We also discussed 5 easy steps to increase your energy:

1.?????Fuel your metabolism

2.????Adapt to stress that will always be a part of our lives

3.????Cut back on alcohol

4.????Get out and get sunshine for vitamin D

5.????Build your posse- surround yourself with high energy positive people

When I work with clients, I not only work on changing daily habits in all areas of their lives, but I can also recommend natural health and wellness solutions from the health and wellness company I have partnered with.?I have used many natural health and wellness solutions for my own health and wellness for over seven years now and they will always be a part of my daily routine.?The product I have been researching is an all-natural?nootropic elixir product coming out in early June!?So, here is what I am learning!?And, as you know, I love the scientific research behind what I use!?

?What are Nootropics?

In all my 40 years of Nursing and two degrees later in life, I had never heard of nootropics.?Maybe you haven’t either!?You are not alone!?Nootropics are substances that enhance your cognitive function and mental performance.?They can be made of both synthetic chemicals and natural ingredients like nutrients or botanical extracts.?

The nootropic elixir I am looking at supports both on-demand focus for cognitive performance and long-term brain health.?It helps boost brain function, memory, and focus while supporting long-term brain health.?It contains ancient botanical ingredients like purslane, amla, green tea, and beetroot along with other ingredients like plant-sourced phosphatidylserine to support alertness and concentration.

How do each one of the botanicals support brain function?

Green tea provides naturally sourced caffeine equivalent to an 8 oz. cup of coffee, for immediate focus along with brain-supporting plant polyphenols.

??Beetroot extract promotes blood flow and oxygen delivery for mental performance.

???Amla and purslane provide protective phytonutrients to support overall well-being and brain health.

??Phosphatidylserine is used by our nerve cells. It ?also helps support memory and brain function with long-term use.?This compound also offers immediate benefits for alertness and concentration.

What scientific studies have been done?

If you know me, you know that I love the science in what I am using.?Initial testing is quite impressive and ongoing!?Standardized cognitive tests, used in neuroscience research, have shown wonderful results.?Visual reactive time is greatly improved in both the visual reactive time testing and the focus color reading test!???Seeing these results remind me of my daughter at the age of 4 beating the pants off us in matching pairs! I'm sure I'm not the only parent on this earth that has lost many a game! It is simply amazing to see the brain power at work in our children! Adults need that focus and clarity, too!

I’m looking forward to trying this nootropic elixir, especially on those days, that we all have, when the mental fatigue sets in!?Or, on those days I need that enhanced focus, alertness, and concentration to get multiple things done!?And, who doesn’t want to enhance their long-term brain health!?!?It will be nice to have one more tool in my personal care toolbox!?If you are interested in taking a look, just let me know!?I’ll gladly share information.
