I talk a LOT about how great D3K2, Magnesium, and Omega 3’s are for the brain, and these are probably the 3 most important for everyday Brain Health, BUT here are some common helpful nootropics that are often overlooked, but can be SUPER helpful and how they size up against one another 💪🏽
⚡ A TIER
Caffeine → most proven cognitive enhancer ever
Focus, alertness, performance
Bonus… may even support longevity
🧘♂️ A TIER
L-theanine → smooth focus, less jittery
Perfect stack with caffeine
Or use solo later in the day
🧠 B TIER
Phosphatidylserine → stress + memory support
Underrated for high performers
🥚 B TIER
Phosphatidylcholine → supports neuron membrane integrity
🔥 A TIER
Alpha-GPC → strong choline donor
Focus, memory, mental clarity
Common in pre-workouts for a reason
⚠️ B/C TIER
Huperzine A → keeps acetylcholine active longer
BUT… long half-life
Use 2–3x per week max or it’ll wreck sleep
🏆 S TIER
Creatine → brain energy, memory, mental endurance
If you’re not taking 5g daily… fix that
Most people are guessing with their brain.
The top performers aren’t.
Save this. Use it. Upgrade your stack. 🧠
