Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) is a plant native to Asia and a member of the Araliaceae family. It is also commonly known as 'Siberian ginseng' or 'eleuthero root'. The root of the plant is used in traditional medicine for its purported ability to improve physical and mental performance, boost the immune system, and reduce fatigue. It is also claimed to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Eleuthero is often referred to as an 'adaptogen'. Adaptogens are believed to help the body resist stress. It is important to note that although eleuthero is known as 'Siberian ginseng', it is not related to Panax ginseng.

Cordyceps is a type of fungi that grows on insects and other small animals. It is found in many parts of the world, including Asia, Europe, and North America but when used as a dietary supplement, specific cells (Cs-4 strain) of the fungus can be cultivated in a laboratory. In traditional medicine, cordyceps is used to treat a wide range of health conditions, including respiratory problems, fatigue, and weakness. It is also used to improve athletic performance and boost the immune system but more research is needed to fully understand its effects and potential risks

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'.

Alpha-GPC (alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine) is a natural compound found in small amounts in foods such as soy lecithin, and is also available as a dietary supplement. It is a source of choline, a nutrient that is important for brain health and function. Alpha-GPC is particularly known for its potential to improve cognitive function, particularly in the areas of memory and learning. It is also being studied for its potential to improve symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Alpha-GPC is likely better absorbed and utilized in the body than other sources of choline as it is known to cross the blood-brain barrier. The choline provided from Alpha-GPC is also a precursor to acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter for cognitive functions such as attention, memory, and learning.

Phosphatidylserine is a phospholipid that plays a crucial role in cell structure and function, particularly in the brain. It's a key component of cell membranes, aiding in cell signaling and maintaining cellular integrity. In the context of the brain, phosphatidylserine supports cognitive function, memory, and neurotransmitter regulation. Additionally, it's commonly used as a dietary supplement to potentially enhance cognitive performance and mitigate age-related cognitive decline.

Clubmoss, also known as lycopodium, is a plant that belongs to the Lycopodiaceae family. Clubmosses are native to many parts of the world, including North America, Europe, and Asia, and are known for their small, fern-like leaves and spore-producing structures. Clubmoss, both the plant and spores, has a long history of use in traditional medicine and herbal remedies. The plant is believed to have a number of medicinal properties and is used to treat a variety of conditions, including bladder and kidney disorders, respiratory problems, digestive issues, and skin irritation. Some studies suggest it may also have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Clubmoss needs to be used cautiously as it contains potentially toxic alkaloids, including lycopodine, dihydrolycopodine, and traces of nicotine.
