Qualia Mind® contains nootropics, adaptogens, brain tonic herbs, brain-essential nutrients, and vitamins. These ingredients have been shown to support a number of brain structures and functions needed for alertness, focus, executive function, mood, and memory. Their benefits include support for healthy prefrontal cortex function, neurotransmission (e.g., acetylcholine, dopamine), neuroplasticity (e.g., BDNF), brain energy and bioenergetics (e.g., mitochondrial performance, ATP), cerebral blood flow, healthy brain cell membranes, neuroprotection, and antioxidant defenses. Qualia Mind was also formulated with stress in mind, so several of the ingredients support a healthy stress response and resilience to stress.*

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”).
