Nutrition Essentials’ product Neuro Clarity claims to enhance memory, mental clarity, energy, focus and concentration. From the sounds of it, it seems like a great all-round mental boost for your brain, so we took a closer look at the ingredients and daily servings to ascertain whether this product is all that it’s cut out to be and whether it will be beneficial to you or not.
The first ingredient on the list, and the main ingredient in this product, is St. John’s Wort. This is a bit of a controversial ingredient as it is reputable for causing adverse side effects particularly if you are already taking anti-depressant medication. Taking this into consideration, we have to question why Nutrition Essentials would add this ingredient to a memory supplement specifically.
Aside from the glaringly disjoined main ingredient in the product, we applauded the other ingredients included in Neuro Clarity, such as Bacopa Monnieri, Phosphatidylserine and Ginkgo Biloba. These are all clinically researched ingredients shown to be effective in boosting cognitive function and enhancing memory. We were, however, disappointed that the daily servings of these ingredients were somewhat lower than what was used in the clinical studies. We were also disappointed that this formula didn’t include any B vitamins whatsoever that would help nourish the brain for better function or any ingredient such as Green Tea to provide an antioxidant effect to protect the brain from damage caused by oxidative stress.
We did find a mention of a 100% satisfaction guarantee, which excited us knowing that the manufacturer fully backs up this product, although we struggled to find out details of how one would go about activating the guarantee since we couldn’t find a website belonging to the manufacturer that would provide this information. This left us slightly confused. The best nootropic supplements will offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee, as well as user-friendly customer service.
Is Nutrition Essentials Neuro Clarity Effective?
We found many positive reviews online that claim this supplement is effective, with that we did find some negative ones that claimed it was not. As with all supplements, some may work better for some than for others. Based on our research however, we found certain ingredients that are more likely to be beneficial than others, such as Bacopa Monnieri, Ginkgo Biloba and Phosphatidylserine, all of which are in this formula, albeit at lower daily servings than what was found to be effective. Additionally, this formula is missing other key ingredients that are effective in a memory supplement, such as a wide variety of B vitamins, Green Tea and Alpha GPC.
We liked that there’s a claim that there’s a satisfaction guarantee, although it doesn’t state how long the guarantee holds for or how you would go about activating the guarantee. The fact that this product is missing many key ingredients and offers a low dosage on the ingredients that it does have, we dont’ believe that it will be significantly effective when compared to other more formidable brands.
Is Nutrition Essentials Neuro Clarity Safe?
We like that this brand is transparent with its ingredients showing how much of each ingredient is in the product, unlike some other brands that have a general proprietary blend. However, its main ingredient is St. John’s Wort which may cause unpleasant side effects. This product is cGMP certified, which is excellent.
As a general rule, it is always recommended to speak to your doctor before taking any new supplement, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, have any health conditions or are taking other medications.
Summary
Neuro Clarity has some stand-out ingredients that we look for in a high-quality memory supplement, such as Bacopa Monnieri, Phosphatidylserine and Ginkgo Biloba, however their daily servings are significantly lower than the clinically researched amounts. In addition, their formula is missing other clinically researched ingredients found to be effective in memory nootropics, such as B vitamins, Green Tea and Alpha GPC. Their holistic blend of ingredients may be more effective for stress and anxiety considering its high dose of St John’s Wort, but as a memory supplement, it may take weeks to have any effect.
We appreciate the claim of a satisfaction guarantee, but were left confused when we couldn’t find any details on the guarantee. Additionally, we found many positive reviews claiming that this product is effective, but at the same time found others that claimed this supplement was a waste of money and time. The fact is that this product falls short when it comes to ingredients and dosage. We believe there are other memory supplements that are stronger and more effective than Nutrition Essentials Neuro Clarity.
