Product Basics

What’s inside nooroots?

Every ingredient in NooRoots has been meticulously selected for its quality of clinical evidence, safety, and its effect on brain pathways of interest to maximize the desired output.

We’ve put together a comprehensive list of all the ingredients in our products. Take a look.

Is nooroots legal?

Absolutely. Each ingredient in our nootropic supplements undergoes an extensive research process to ensure they are 100% safe and legal. Nooroots’ products exclude illegal substances as defined by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), making them safe for use in competitive sports and other activities.

How and when should I take nooroots?

You can take them whenever it’s most convenient for you!

Most people find taking their daily 2 capsules in the morning with a glass of water works best, allowing the benefits of our natural nootropics to be felt throughout the day. It's recommended to take them with a meal to avoid any stomach upset. For those with sensitive stomachs, splitting the dosage to one capsule in the morning and one in the evening may help.

Which formula will work best for me?

Our natural nootropic supplements are uniquely formulated to support specific needs, with variations in ingredients and their benefits.

There are differences in the full list of ingredients as well as benefits and effects:

Learning & Memory: Primary effect is to increase your capacity to absorb and retain new information by promoting neurogenesis – a process of creating new brain connections. As well as enhancing the ability to recall storied memories. Support effects aim to improve mental clarity, information processing, reduce brain fog, energy production and a positive mood.

Mood: Primary effect is to regulate your mood by increasing the compounds in the brain used to create pleasure, happiness and calming brain messengers. Support effects aim  to improve blood circulation, oxygen availability to cells, energy and removal of brain toxins. 

Can athletes use nooroots during competitive sport?

Yes, athletes can confidently use Nooroots during both competition and training. Our nootropic supplements are 100% legal and do not contain any substances prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

Can I take multiple products at the same time?

While our natural nootropic supplements are safe to use in combination, for optimal benefits, consider focusing on one product at a time. This approach prevents excessive intake of any one nutrient and allows you to tailor your supplementation to your weekly needs, such as focusing on learning during the week and energy on weekends.

Should I cycle nooroots?

Cycling is a technical term used to describe the practice of regulating supplement consumption in order to maintain their efficacy. For example, popular cycles include 4 weeks ‘on’ i.e. taking the supplement and 1 week ‘off’ i.e. not taking the supplement. Another popular cycle is 5 days on and 2 days off.

Cycling can help maintain the efficacy of nootropic supplements. We recommend experimenting with cycles, such as 4 weeks on and 1 week off, to find what works best for you, as individual responses to supplements can vary.

What is nooroots dosage?

We value transparency, listing all ingredients and their dosages on our labels. The recommended dosage is 2 capsules per day, ideally with a meal for better absorption. For those taking our Sleep supplement, we suggest taking it 1 hour before bedtime.

When will I feel the benefits?

The effectiveness of our natural nootropic supplements builds with consistent use.

Each person is different but the secret that connects us is consistency! We can’t stress this enough, nooroots products are not a quick fix, they are a commitment. That’s why we sell with a minimum supply for 1 month but strongly recommend taking them for 3+ months until your are satisfied and then continuing for 6 months & beyond.

You’ll notice benefits increase with time as your brain adjusts to a new baseline.

The reason we suggest to take Nooroots alongside your breakfast or another meal is a phenomena called ‘habit stacking’ this will automatically program your brain to associate taking nooroots with a specific time of day or meal. We’ve seen first-hand this technique pay dividends for many of our customers.

Great question! Racetams are a well-known class of nootropic supplements, but they do not fit with Nooroots’ commitment to natural health and wellness.

Therefore, all our natural nootropic supplements are 100% free from racetams, ensuring that our products are purely derived from natural sources.

This helps maintain the nutrient stability of the nootropic supplements, ensuring they remain effective until their expiration date, which is typically 2 years from the manufacturing date.

Side Effects

Is nooroots free of side effects?

Typically, our customers don’t experience side effects when taking nooroots as dosages are all within the safe daily limit. However, some customers have reported side effects such as thirst, insomnia, sensitive stomach/nausea and yellow urine. We’ve put together a short list of the common side effects and ways to alleviate them below:

Thirst: If you feel thirsty after taking nooroots, this can be easily resolved by drinking more water than you usual would.

Insomnia: Some of our ingredients contain Guarana Seed (a source of caffeine) or B vitamins which help regulate alertness, so be sure to carefully read what ingredients are in the products are perhaps switch to taking them in the mornings instead of evening time.

Red Flushing: Some people are more sensitive to B Vitamins like Niacin (B3) which can cause red flushing. This can be momentarily uncomfortable but is harmless. If it happens stop taking nooroots or half the dose if you want to continue.

Sensitive stomach/nausea: Our experts advise to split the dose throughout the day and take it with a meal. For example, one capsule with breakfast and one with lunch.

Yellow urine: Don’t be concerned. This may happen as your body is receiving an increased dose of some nutrients like vitamin B2.

If you are experiencing strong negative side affects you should stop taking nooroots and speak with your GP.
