A Word On Brand Names

Tips On Finding The Best Nootropic Supplements
When it comes to supplements, it is a general rule to avoid department store, drugstore and supermarket brands, if you want to buy a quality product. None of these produce supplements as their main line of business, so neither can guarantee what’s in the bottle, or even less so what the quality of the product is.
When you are considering a specific brand, make sure you check out their website and read the “About” page. Try to find out about the company story and the philosophy behind it. It’s also extremely important to check the quality of their customer service, in case of a question or complaint.

If you are concerned about picking a safe product, start by trying a popular, one-ingredient nootropic. You can find a list of the most common ones . Because, while most “inactive” ingredients are considered safe in small quantities, regular nootropic users might ask themselves the question about consequences with long-term use.
