Cerebro By Syntrax Overview & Drug Interactions

Bacopa (Bacopa monnieri) is a perennial herb that is native to India and other parts of Southeast Asia. Bacopa has small, white or blue flowers and is commonly found in wetland areas. In traditional Ayurvedic medicine, bacopa is believed to have a number of health benefits, including the ability to improve memory and cognitive function, reduce anxiety and stress, and improve symptoms of ADHD. It is also thought to have potential benefits for people with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Bacopa dietary supplements are often marketed for 'cognitive support'.

Rhodiola is a type of plant native to the Arctic regions of Europe and Asia. It is also known as "golden root" or "arctic root." The roots and rhizomes of Rhodiola are commonly used in dietary supplements for their purported effects as an 'adaptogen', which are used to improve physical and mental performance, reduce fatigue, and enhance the ability to cope with stress. Rhodiola is believed to work by increasing the production of certain chemicals in the brain (e.g., serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine) that are involved in mood and energy regulation. Rhodiola supplements are often standardized to a specific amount of their rosavin and salidroside content.

Vinpocetine is a synthetic compound that is derived from the alkaloid vincamine, which is found in the periwinkle plant (Vinca minor). It is used as a dietary supplement and is claimed to have a number of potential health benefits, including improving memory and cognitive function, increasing blood flow to the brain, and reducing inflammation. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), in 2019, issued a warning that those who are pregnant or who could become pregnant should avoid vinpocetine due to safety concerns.
