The natural way to increase focus and clarity. Mycoveda Cognition is a potent cognition enhancer that nourishes the brain. It uses Mycoveda™ to carefully match optimised doses of the functional mushroom Lion’s Mane (for long-term brain repair and maintenance), the time-tested ayurvedic ingredient, Bacopa Monnieri (for immediate mental clarity and focus), and Magnesium Bisglycinate (for helping maximum absorption and efficacy of the neurotransmitters).

It’s really smart brain food that’s instantly palpable, helping one to dial into tasks and stay focused with peak cognitive performance. Mycoveda Cognition is a natural defense against mental ageing and a way to enjoy life to the fullest for years and years.

Lion’s Mane has a range of long-term, positive effects on the brain. It helps increase Nerve Growth Factor by acting on Brain Derived Nerve Growth Factor (BDNF) pathways. It helps generate new neurons in the brain’s dentate gyrus, a part of the hippocampus. It helps attenuate amyloid-B (beta) plaques. And it impacts neuronal apoptosis, helping to keep neurons healthier for longer. Clinical trials have indicated that Lion’s Mane could ameliorate cognitive impairment, such as learning, memory and concentration. It’s also involved in the regrowth of myelin which allows brain signals to travel through axons. Furthermore, Lion’s Mane has been seen to aid hippocampal neurogenesis, leading to improved recognition memory and mood, and reduction of anxiety.

Bacopa Monnieri, or Brahmi, provides an immediate effect by helping increase dendritic spines within the basolateral amygdala, the part of our brain related to learning and memory. This not only produces produces faster attention and reaction times, but also improves spatial learning and memory retention, and delays memory extinction (or forgetting). It helps protect against inflammation by reducing oxidative stress through pro-inflammatory cytokines; and by preventing the depletion of glutathione, a major anti-inflammatory. Bacopa also increases cerebral blood flow which may be associated with pro-cognitive effects.

Magnesium Bisglycinate has higher bioavailability, and helps both the Lion’s Mane and the Bacopa Monnieri to act optimally by improving the overall metabolism of neurotransmitters. It regulates NMDA receptor activity which is implicated in neurological disorders. It reduces cortisol, resulting in reduced stress and anxiety along with greater focus. It regulates calcium to protect against neuronal damage and cell death.
