Mind Lab Pro – Advanced Nootropic Supplement

Mind Lab Pro Review

Mind Lab Pro is labeled as an “Advanced Nootropic” supplement. It claims to give you a competitive edge in business, school, sports, work, and life. Here’s our review.

What is Mind Lab Pro?

Mind Lab Pro is a nutritional supplement that contains a blend of nootropic ingredients. That nutritional supplement promises to provide benefits like:

Enhance Memory
— Accelerate Learning
— Improve Problem Solving Skills
— Achieve Optimal Brain Health
— Avoid Age-Related Cognitive Decline

By taking the supplement daily, you can enjoy short-term and long-term benefits like the ones listed above.

The nootropic has the unique distinction of being caffeine-free, allergen-free, 100% natural, and safe for both vegans and vegetarians to use. We review a lot of nootropics that are loaded with stimulants and synthetic formulas, so it’s refreshing to see that Mind Lab Pro isn’t one.

So how does Mind Lab Pro work? How much does it cost? Keep reading to find out more.

How Does Mind Lab Pro Work?

Mind Lab Pro uses a blend of 11 nootropic ingredients. These ingredients have been well-studied and can be found in many other nootropics on the market today. Fortunately for us, Mind Lab Pro also includes dosage information with each ingredient – so it’s easy to compare the benefits of each ingredient to major clinical studies.

Key ingredients include all of the following:

— Cognizin (Citicoline) – 250mg

Citicoline is a precursor to phosphatidylcholine, which increases the production of “neurites” in the brain. Neurites are protective structures for neurons. In one study, healthy adult women between ages 40 and 60 were divided into three groups. One group took 250mg of choline, the other took 500mg of choline, and a third took a placebo for 28 days. By the end of the study, the choline groups were “significantly better” at answering test questions correctly. These effects were observed in both the 250mg and 500mg groups. You can read the full study here.

— Phosphatidylserine (Soy-Free) – 50mg

In one study, participants took 300mg of phosphatidylserine daily for 6 months and demonstrated significant improvements in cognitive performance versus people taking a placebo. Obviously, the 50mg dose in Mind Lab Pro is six times smaller than that dose, but the manufacturer still expects that you’ll enjoy some benefits.

— Hericium Erinaceous (Lion’s Mane Mushroom) – 500mg

This popular Asian mushroom recently demonstrated its effectiveness in a Japanese study where participants between ages 50 and 80 with mild cognitive impairment took 1,000mg of Lion’s Mane three times a day for 16 weeks. This group showed a significant improvement in test scores. However, what the manufacturer of Mind Lab Pro doesn’t mention is that the participants in this trial were tested again after they stopped taking the mushroom, and their test scores “decreased significantly”. You can view that study here.

— Rhodiola Rosea (Root) – 50mg

In one study, Rhodiola rosea (a native Russian herb), was shown to stimulate brain activity and improve mental work capacity. That study, however, involved taking 340mg of Rhodiola rosea extract, which is over 6 times more than the amount used in Mind Lab Pro. It was also a pilot study that involved just 10 participants, so it wasn’t a huge landmark study.

— L-Theanine – 125mg

L-Theanine is one of the most popular nootropic ingredients on the market today. L-Theanine is an amino acid found in tea leaves that closely resembles the chemical structure of glutamate. Its effectiveness and boosting attention, focus, and cognition has been repeatedly demonstrated over the years, so I won’t get into too much evidence here. It’s typically taken in a dose of 200mg.

— N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine – 175mg

N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine encourages the production of neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine within your body. The dose of L-Tyrosine in Mind Lab Pro is really small: typically, studies involving L-Tyrosine recommend taking a dose of 150mg per kg of bodyweight. So an 80kg individual would take a dose of 12,000mg per day.

— Vitamin B6 – 2.5mg

Vitamin B helps restore neurotransmitter levels that have been depleted by stress. It’s a popular B vitamin found in energy drinks. In one study linked on Mind Lab Pro’s website, participants took 20mg of vitamin B6 for 2 years and were observed to have reduced their cognitive decline.

— Bacopa Monnieri – 150mg

Bacopa monnieri is a well-known nootropic compound that has demonstrated some modest benefits, but nothing too mind-blowing. One study gave participants 300mg of Bacopa extract daily for 12 weeks, after which participants were observed to have increased information processing and memory over those taking a placebo. However, wide scale human studies from reputable organizations are still lacking with Bacopa monnieri.

— Pterostilbene – 500mcg

Pterostilbene purportedly works in a similar way to resveratrol, which is the antioxidant found in red wine and blueberries. However, it has higher bioavailability.

— Vinpocetine – 6mg

Vinpocetine is another popular nootropic compound. It has been extensively researched over the years and is one nootropic with mountains of evidence supporting its cognitive benefits. Unfortunately for Mind Lab Pro, vinpocetine is typically taken at a minimum daily dosage of 30mg, with more experienced users taking 60mg or more – so the dose in here is relatively small.

— Huperzine A – 200mcg

Huperzine A inhibits the chemical that kills acetylcholine in your brain. To support the inclusion of Huperzine A, the creators of Mind Lab Pro link to this 2002 Chinese study where 202 patients diagnosed with ADHD took Huperzine-A or a placebo. Researchers concluded with the following: “A safe and effective medicine, huperzine Alpha remarkably improves the cognition, behavior, ADL,and mood of AD patients”. Patients received 400mcg of Huperzine A daily for 12 weeks.

Ultimately, all of the ingredients in Mind Lab Pro are backed by real scientific evidence. The dosages are clear and are not hidden behind any proprietary formulas. Yes, there are some ingredients – like Vinpocetine – that have relatively small dosages. But overall, the formula should work as advertised to increase cognitive ability.

Mind Lab Pro Pricing

Mind Lab Pro is priced in a similar way to most other nootropics. Here’s how pricing breaks down:

— 1 Month Supply (1 Box): $65
— 2 Month Supply (2 Boxes): $130
— 3 Month Supply (3 Boxes): $195 (plus get one box extra for free, plus free shipping anywhere in the world)

All of these prices include shipping to US and UK addresses. International customers, however, will have to pay a shipping surcharge of $14.95 (unless you order the 3 month supply, in which case shipping is free worldwide).

Keep in mind that the dosages above are for two capsules, which is one daily serving. So if you want to double up the dosage to enhance the effects of Mind Lab Pro (which should be safe to do, based on the dosage information and strength), then you’ll end up paying about $130 per month for Mind Lab Pro.

Who Makes Mind Lab Pro?

Mind Lab Pro is made by a UK-based company named Opti-Nutra Ltd. That company is based at 20-22 Wenlock Road in London, N1 7GU.

Opti-Nutra calls itself an “advanced nutraceuticals” manufacturer that spares “no expense in producing the purest and most potent nutraceuticals available today.”

Mind Lab Pro is currently the only product listed by Opti-Nutra on its website.

You can contact the company by emailing cs@mindlabpro.com or by filling out the online form here: MindLabPro.com

Should You Use Mind Lab Pro to Boost Cognition?

Mind Lab Pro appears to be a safe, effective, and natural nootropic formula that contains a smart blend of ingredients at the right dosages. Like most nootropics sold online today, the dosages are slightly lower than the recommended amounts, although Mind Lab Pro still packs a punch for most ingredients.

Given that information, Mind Lab Pro should be able to work as advertised to help improve your cognitive energy and focus.
