Description
Solgar Brain Works with Full Spectrum Curcumin & BacoMind is a vegan food supplement combining BacoMind (a standardised Bacopa monnieri extract), Full Spectrum Curcumin, vitamin B12 and choline in a vegetable capsule, taken 2-3 times a day. Its vitamin B12 content contributes to normal psychological function and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
Key Features
- Vitamin B12 (1332% NRV): contributes to normal psychological function and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
- Choline for liver and metabolism: at the maximum daily amount of three capsules, choline contributes to normal lipid and homocysteine metabolism and the maintenance of normal liver function.
- Standardised BacoMind extract: a patented Bacopa monnieri extract standardised to contain nine bacoside compounds, giving a consistent amount in every capsule.
- Micellised curcumin: Full Spectrum Curcumin is processed using a micellation technique designed to improve its absorption compared with standard turmeric extract.
- Vegan and allergen-conscious: free from gluten, wheat, dairy, soya and yeast.
Which ingredients in this formula have an evidence-based effect on the mind?
Of the four main ingredients, only vitamin B12 has an authorised health claim relevant to mental function: it contributes to normal psychological function and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue. BacoMind (Bacopa monnieri) and Full Spectrum Curcumin are included for their traditional and formulation characteristics; no UK or EU-authorised health claim currently exists for their effect on memory, mood or brain function.
Can I take this if I have gallstones or take blood-thinning medication?
Curcumin can increase bile and gallbladder activity, so it should be avoided if you have gallstones or another biliary condition. It may also increase bleeding risk, so speak to your doctor first if you take blood-thinning medication such as warfarin or aspirin, or have surgery planned.
How long does one pack last?
A pack of 60 capsules provides between 20 and 30 days' supply, depending on whether two or three capsules are taken daily.
