FAQ

Cognition is a highly concentrated liquid supplement, a mix of  well-known Ayurvedic plants and compounds that each have supportive effects on cognition, mental health, and well being.

Suggested serving size is approximately 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon, 2 times a day.  A 1/2 teaspoon will be around 5 pumps (but will vary bottle to bottle, so please measure). While each pump is calculated to be around a half ml (0.5), the only way to verify this is to initially put into a teaspoon, since the volume of each pump can vary from bottle to bottle.  One teaspoon is 5 milliliters; check to see how many pumps that is with your bottle.

Each bottle is 120 ml. That is 60 2 ml servings, so each bottle will last between 30 and 60 days for most people.

Because of Cognition’s™ strong taste, we suggest mixing with a bit of orange juice, lemonade, smoothie, or your favorite method. We suggest one or two servings a day (i.e., four to eight pumps a day).

The Cognition formula is strong, so for some people, just one or two pumps is the right amount, and for others, it will be more. The key is to start slow, and experiment to find what is right for you.

We believe Cognition is currently the single-most effective formula on the market. Most users feel its effects within minutes, but the real benefit is usually in the hours following each serving.

Nootropics can be extracted from plants, completely designed in a lab through a modern chemistry, or a combination of both. Until recently, the strongest nootropics were generally lab creations. But with the advent of Supercritical Fluid Extraction technology, these ancient brain plants are able to be concentrated 40, 50, or even 100 times their normal levels. This is why Synaptic’s Cognition formula is so ground-breaking in its effect.

We use eight highly concentrated active ingredients.

Six are Ayurvedic herbs that have been used for hundreds of years in Ayurvedic medicine:

  1. Bacopa monnieri (leaf)
  2. Celastrus paniculatus (seed)
  3. Centella asiatica (leaf)
  4. Convolvulus pluricaulis (whole plant)
  5. Mucuna pruriens (seed)
  6. Ocimum sanctum (leaf)

One is an African seed rich in a serotonin building block:

7. Griffonia simplicifolia

And the last is the most important (and most expensive) form of choline, the brain’s most-used neurotransmitter:

8. A-glyceryl Phosphoryl Choline

Other non-active ingredients are distilled water, MCT Oil (Medium Chain Triglycerides from organic coconuts), Vegetable Glycerin USP, Lemon Juice, Apple Cider Vinegar, Sunflower Lecithin, Citric acid, and Stevia leaf extract.

We use no artificial ingredients (such as preservatives, stabilizers, and flavoring agents). There is no sugar, and all ingredients are non-GMO.

Every ingredient is grown naturally without herbicides or pesticides, and every batch is tested beforehand for heavy metals and chemical toxins.

Please shake well before using. Refrigerate after opening. Avoid direct sunlight.

Ingredients in Cognition show support with:

  • increased memory, recall and retention
  • increase of focus, concentration, alertness
  • expanded sense of well-being, an elevation in mood
  • improved motivation to get things done
  • renewed sense of seeing a path forward
  • lessening of anxiety and depression

The suggested serving is 4 pumps, 2ml.  Multiple servings throughout ones day is fine.

The brain needs and uses up nutrients, including neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine, dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine and others. The active ingredients in Cognition show support for the creation of brain nutrients.

All cognitive-enhancing plants are naturally very bitter, so Cognition™ tastes similar to a smoothie green drink, like a juice made from green vegetables. We’ve added some natural orange flavors to balance the bitterness.

An effective nootropic is not candy. It’s not a gummy bear, it’s not even a fun beverage. It is an intense tonic.

We suggest mixing your servings in a bit of orange juice, lemonade, smoothie, or other drink or beverage.

Some important suggestions:

1. Use Cognition™ at room temperature so that it flows easily.  The label mentions refrigeration, but we’ve since learned that an open bottle will last for month on the counter, so keep at room temp. (you can store unopened bottles in the refrigerator to help maintain freshness). Shake before using.
The formula’s carrier system is based in MCT oil, which is a very healthy lipid, but its viscosity gets too thick when cold. Keep it room temp to allow for much better flow and better taste.
2. Cognition™ is a concentrated bitters tonic, so like all bitters, we suggest to avoid using on an empty stomach, and avoid using directly with strong stimulants. Wait 30 minutes before or after strong stimulants.
3. Suggested serving size is approximately 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon, 2 times a day.
A 1/2 teaspoon will be around 5 pumps (but will vary bottle to bottle). While each pump is calculated to be around a half ml (0.5), the only way to verify this is to initially put into a teaspoon, since the volume of each pump can vary from bottle to bottle.  One teaspoon is 5 milliliters; check to see how many pumps that is with your bottle.
4. Shake before using. Turn the top 1/4 turn to the left to unlock the pump. Start small to see what works for each person’s system, then increase by 2 pumps to the desired state. Some people find that just 3-6 pumps each day is the right dose, but others find best results at 8-16 pumps per day. You will know you’ve found your body’s right amount when you notice a cognitive and mood improvement. Experiment.
5. Pump into a spoon and mix with a bit of orange juice, lemonade, smoothie, or other beverage.  Hot or cold doesn’t alter the effect.
6. Use it at your maximum need: We suggest using right before peak concentration and all brain cylinders are required.

Cognition was designed for anyone who needs periods of time when they want their mind to fire on all cylinders. When they need a boost in creativity, focus, concentration, mood uplift, clarify, being centered, decision making, amplified determination, and the overall ability to get things done.

This would include:

  • knowledge workers
  • coders
  • writers/authors/teachers
  • students (cramming, or studying difficult topics)
  • procrastinators, and those easily distracted
  • anyone looking for a healthy alternative to chemical nootropics
  • those looking to balance their mood and well-being

Who should NOT use any Synaptic Scientific product?

Synaptic Scientific products are not for anyone who is pregnant, nursing, or under the age of 18. If you are currently taking any medications, being medically supervised for the care and treatment of any physical or mental illness, scheduled for surgery, taking immune-suppressant drugs, or just confused what to do, we suggest that you do not use any Synaptic product.

None of the statements on this page or anywhere on the Synaptic Scientific website have not been evaluated by the FDA. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

There are no contraindications to the active ingredients in Cognition.

Cognition’s ingredients are extremely concentrated, so always start slow when using Cognition, to see how its effects work with you. Start with just 1 pump (0.5 ml), and see how that feels.

None of the ingredients have any literature showing dependency or addiction.

Please follow suggested usage instructions, and read the medical disclaimer, linked at the bottom of each page.

Cognition™ is a nutritional product, not a drug product. No Synaptic Scientific product is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, condition or life situation.

No.

Stimulant is a general term more associated with caffeine, energy drinks, and amphetamine derivatives such as Ritalin, Vyvanse, and Adderall. Other stimulants include theobromine (in chocolate), or theanine (in tea), as well as the chemical nootropics stimulants such as Modafinil, Armodafinil, or the ‘racetams like Piracetam and Oxiracetam. Stimulants can be fun and useful, but they almost always come with a price to pay; they generally require a recovery period afterwards.

Cognition™ is the opposite. Yes, the effect of Cognition is generally felt within minutes, but that effect you feel is not from a stimulant. There is no crash or price-to-pay result from Cognition.

Our ingredients have different pharmacokinetic pathways and mechanisms than stimulants. For example, A-glyceryl Phosphoryl Choline passes through the blood-brain barrier and converts extremely quickly into precursor of acetylcholine, our brain’s most abundant neurotransmitter. And Bacopa monnieri studies, for instance, are showing support with children, almost immediately after taking. Griffonia simplicifolia extracts show support for neuroprotective and increased plasticity.

None of the ingredients we use in Cognition is a stimulant.

The FDA actually doesn’t approve or disapprove any dietary supplement. It only approves pharmaceutical drugs and medical devices, and Synaptic Scientific offers neither of those.

  • the safety and regulations on manufacturing. All of Synaptic Scientific’s ingredients are grown and manufactured in GMP manufacturing facilities. Our bottling facility is an FDA-approved facility, following the FDA’s 21 CFR 110 and 111 ruling, which addresses the quality of the manufacturing processes for dietary supplements and the accurate listing of supplement ingredients.We also following the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) compliance requirements, including HACCP  – Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points, which use:
    • Preventative Controls Qualified Individuals (PCQI) on Staff
