HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Brain Elite by OmneDiem Performance

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Brain Elite contains 2 active ingredients. Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that supports nerve function, red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis — your body can't make it, so you have to get it from food or supplements.

The product also includes a Brain Elite Blend, which is a proprietary blend of ingredients; we don't have a breakdown of what's in it. The capsule also contains inactive ingredients (hypromellose, ascorbyl palmitate, microcrystalline cellulose, and silica) that serve as binders and fillers.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Vitamin B12's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Support brain cell metabolism for focus attention memory.
  • We looked for evidence on: Age-related cognitive decline, Attention, Cognitive function, Cognitive impairment, Dementia, Mental clarity — and 2 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Vitamin B12 is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Age-related cognitive decline (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin B12 is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Cognitive impairment.
  • Also on file: Vitamin B12 is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cognitive function, Dementia, Attention.

Vitamin B12 in this product is effective for treating B12 deficiency and a rare condition called Imerslund-Grasbeck disease, and it's likely effective for cyanide poisoning. It's also possibly effective for canker sores and postherpetic neuralgia (nerve pain after shingles).

We don't have effectiveness data in our files for the Brain Elite Blend, so we can't tell you what it's designed to do or whether the evidence supports it.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B12

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Vitamin B12 is generally well-tolerated and has no upper limit because your body removes excess through urine. When taken by mouth, it's usually without side effects.

Rarely, people have had allergic reactions like rash or itching, and in very rare cases, correcting a severe B12 deficiency has led to a dangerous drop in potassium levels — something your doctor would monitor if you were deficient. B12 is considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding at recommended amounts; follow your provider's guidance on dosing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B12

Meds to double-check

Minor interactions only
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Minor only

Only Minor-severity interactions are documented for these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitamin B12.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
  • For scale: 20 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take metformin (Glucophage) for diabetes, that's a Minor interaction — metformin can lower B12 levels, and adding B12 means your doctor may want to monitor your levels more closely. We could not check the Brain Elite Blend against medications, so if you're on any prescriptions, use the search tool to be certain.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.

This product makes sense if you have a B12 deficiency or want to support your B12 levels — B12 is essential and many people, especially those on metformin, don't get enough. If you take metformin, check with us or your pharmacist before starting, since the combination can affect your B12 status.

Check your full medication list against the tool on this page to be sure.

Metformin (Glucophage)
