Knowing what you are buying is essential, especially when it comes to supplements, and OptiMind is no exception. I have learned that no matter what you read and what someone recommends, the best way to make a wise decision is to actually take the time to learn about the product, read reviews, and study the ingredients in depth. Not only do you risk wasting money, but you risk your health as well, so taking that extra few minutes or even an hour or so to do some in-depth research could go a long way.

I was recommended OptiMind by a co-worker and thought it looked interesting. I have actually reviewed and read into several other similar products but have had very little luck in finding one that I am actually willing to invest in or trust. This one, however, caught my attention.

What is OptiMind?

I was impressed by the official website, to say the least. Unlike most websites for similar products, there is a lot of effort put into making this website as trustworthy as possible. Not only do they go in-depth about the product itself and offer a full list of ingredients with descriptions and supplement facts, but they also provide lots of extra information and a blog that guides you through every detail of the product, what you can expect, and even some great suggestions and hacks.

OptiMind is a powerful nootropic supplement containing a number of great quality and proven ingredients. I have read and heard this plenty of times in the past, but thankfully, through their website, I was able to find the full list of ingredients and research each in depth to ensure that their claims are true. The supplement is claimed to improve attention, focus, mood, awareness, and overall cognition. 

This is because nootropics are known to improve the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain and by providing a blend of amino acids, vitamins, and nutrients through powerful ingredients, you get the building blocks of healthy neurotransmitters. You will be able to stay calm and focused when everyone else is ready to give up. The ingredients are safe and essential for healthy brain function.

What is in OptiMind?

As mentioned above, I was impressed to find not only a list of ingredients with brief descriptions but also links within the descriptions offering additional in-depth information for each. To add to this, at the bottom of their ingredients page, you are also provided with an image of their supplement facts.

Here is a list of the main active ingredients with a brief description:

• Vitamin D-3: It is essential for bone health and absorbing minerals such as iron, calcium, zinc, and magnesium, which are all important for overall health, focus, and cognition, as well as energy, immune function, and cell growth. Low levels of Vitamin D are connected with poor cognitive health and low mood.
• Alpha Lipoic Acid: Also known as ALA, this ingredient breaks down carbohydrates, which results in more energy. Energy is increased within 3 days, and in a few weeks, it has the ability to improve memory drastically. Also protects the brain cells from damage from free radicals, much like an antioxidant, and protects it from heavy minerals which can be toxic.
• Caffeine: A well-known ingredient known to stimulate the central nervous system, restore alertness, and help eliminate drowsiness temporarily. Don't worry. The amount of caffeine found in OptiMind is the same amount found in a single cup of coffee but without the side effect of mid-afternoon crashes or jitters.
• Huperzine A: This popular nootropic helps boost learning performance and memory retention. It is known to protect cells in the brain from oxidative stress and harmful toxicity. Increases nerve growth factor and acetylcholine, all the while helping your brain adapt to new behaviors, which means that you will be able to learn a new skill easier and faster.

• Tyrosine: An amino acid produced in the body naturally, which is essential to building proteins, hormones, and vital neurotransmitters. By boosting tyrosine, you will be more alert, less anxious, and be able to fight fatigue more easily. Your mood will improve, and you will not burn out as easily as before. Another benefit is that it counteracts the hypersensitive effect of caffeine.
• Taurine: A natural amino acid that protects from oxidative stress and acts like an antioxidant. Improves cognitive impairment, protects the brain from numerous toxic substances, and improves the performance and endurance of the brain. There are suggestions that it may guard against depressive symptoms, anxiety, and even blood sugar problems.
• Vitamin B-12: It's essential for RNA/DNA synthesis, maintaining proper function of the nervous system, and blood foundation. It helps boost the breakdown of carbohydrates, turning them into energy, helps improve mood and memory, and increases energy. It is also known to improve muscle weakness, vision loss, and fight fatigue.
• Sulbutiamine: It is an enhanced Vitamin B-1 that is known to cross the blood-to-brain barrier, allowing for easier absorption. Helps treat B-1 deficiency which is known to dull mental performance and cause fatigue; thus, by improving B-1 deficiency with this ingredient, you will experience increased energy, better mood, and improved memory. It also helps improve cognitive performance and protects the brain from drug-induced amnesia, brain cell infection, and deprivation of oxygen-glucose.
• Vinpocetine: This powerful nootropic increases blood flow to the brain, boosting energy and aiding in the repair of brain cells that have been damaged due to lack of oxygen. Reduces oxidative stress by fighting free radicals and boosts cognition and memory by increasing key neurotransmitters. Also could benefit vision and hearing but is mainly used for alertness, memory, and concentration.
• Bacopa Monnier: It increases memory and enhances cognitive performance and learning rates, all the while protecting against oxidative stress, anxiety, and depression.

Two ingredients that they did not get into were:

• GABA
• Phosphatidylserine

Honestly, just reading the list of ingredients, I am convinced this supplement is effective. You can read up on them further on the official website as well, but I have added links to their corresponding WebMD pages so you can gather more accurate information from an external website.

I have ordered my first month's supply as I opted to just purchase a full bottle rather than going through a trial. I will add to my OptiMind review once I have tried it for a full month and give you further insight as to whether it really works.
