Enhances memory, focus and cognition
Supports cognition — memory, focus, clarity and mental stamina — often by improving blood flow to the brain, protecting nerve cells or modulating neurotransmitters. Herbal nootropics tend to work gently and cumulatively rather than as quick stimulants.

- centella asiatica
- gingko biloba
- paeonia lactifolia
- panax ginseng
- polygonum multiflorum (resveretrol?)
- rhodiola rosea
- rosmarinus officinalis
