Nootropic (nō•ōh•trō•pick) : any cognition boosting plant or compound that markedly improves a variety of mental functions, including:

• memory and retention *
• increase of focus, concentration, alertness *
• expanded sense of well-being, an elevation in mood *
• motivation to get things done *
• renewed sense of seeing a path forward *
• a lessening of anxiety and depression (in certain plant-extract versions) *

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.

Ayurvedic: the adjective form of Ayurveda, which is the medicine system from the India subcontinent and practiced for more than 2,000 years. Herbal and plant medicine is a central key to this system.

Synaptic: related to the synapse or synapses between nerve cells. In the nervous system, a synapse is the structure that permits a neuron to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron or to the target effector cell.  They are essential to the transmission of nervous impulses from one neuron to another. Neurons are specialized to pass signals to individual target cells, and synapses are the means by which they do so.

Cognition: refers to the mental action or process of acquiring knowledge, and understanding through thought, experience, and senses. It encompasses many aspect of intelligence such as perception, attention, focus, formation of knowledge, memory, judgement, evaluation, reasoning, decision making, comprehension, and use of language.

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.

Suggestions:

Cognition was designed for those who need 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 those 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 been evaluated by the FDA. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Cognition™ is not a drug nor is it a stimulant. All ingredients have decades and even centuries of recorded use; none of literature show dependency or addiction. 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.

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.

All products described here are not for use to persons who are pregnant, nursing, or under the age of 18, or with any physical or mental condition. A Doctor’s advice should be sought before using this and any supplemental dietary product.

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.
