No, all of the ingredients in Qualia Mind® are not organic. The term “organic” refers to the way agricultural products are grown and processed. It is a term that has meaning for foods and beverages, but is not as meaningful for dietary supplements, because many ingredients including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and many nootropic compounds are not agricultural products and cannot be certified as organic.
We deeply care about the quality and safety of all Qualia products. Our ingredients are tested for purity, heavy metals, and microbial contamination. We also test the finished product to further ensure quality during manufacturing.
Qualia Mind is gluten-free, vegan, and non-GMO. It has no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, and is also made with HPMC vegetarian capsules. Qualia Mind is not kosher.
We do not recommend giving Qualia Mind® to children or teenagers, because (1) some of the ingredients have only been studied in adults, and (2) a 6 capsule suggested serving size contains 100 mg of caffeine, which when added to the amount of caffeine many teens consume in sodas, coffee drinks, energy drinks, etc., would place them above the amount recommended by doctors (The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests limiting caffeine intake to 100 mg in adolescents ages 12 to 18 years old and has not designated a safe threshold for caffeine in children 11 years old and younger).*
Qualia Mind® combines 32 ingredients that have been carefully selected to support mental energy, alertness, attention, concentration, focus, memory, mood, motivation, and overall cognitive performance.
Several ingredients in Qualia Mind®—Rhodiola, Ginkgo, PQQ, Lutein, Phosphatidylserine, and Nutricog®, as examples—can be thought of as more akin to the tortoise than the hare from Aesop’s fable (i.e., “slow and steady wins the race”).
