Neuroq Review: It's Not Quite Good Enough

Neuroq isn't the best and it's not the worst nootropic supplement that we've come across. If it was cheaper it would be a good middle of the road supplement, the problem is that Neuroq comes in at the same price as much more comprehensive nootropics and misses out on a couple of the best ingredients, most notably citicoline, which we expect to have in general memory boosting nootropic supplements due to it being one of the most effective memory boosting compounds [1]. It does get a fair bit right however, and as 2 capsule a day supplements go it isn't that bad, aside from on it's overall value proposition at $55.

Customers Neuroq reviews are relatively middling. Which is to be expected, anyone completely new to nootropics will likely see some improved brain function due to the phosphatidylserine and as a result some are positive, but people who are more used to nootropics won't likely find much to like in Neuroq.

We can't recommend it against anything that's on our best nootropics list, with the very best competitors coming in around this price point. For example, you'd get 3 times the product from Hunter Focus for just $5 more. Perhaps it is a little unfair to compare the two as the latter is the most comprehensive nootropic on the market.

But, even if we compare it to the more stripped down Neuroq competitors like Performance Labs Mind which has similar nootropic ingredients, but less caffeine which is replaced with the citicoline we mentioned.In short, Neuroq relies a little to heavily on phosphatidylserine to do the heavy lifting, is a bit overpriced, but should help with cognitive function.

What Does Neuroq Claim To Do?

Neuroq mostly promotes itself as a memory and focus booster. And we'd say this is reasonably fair, caffeine (which is in Kola Nut) is of course well known to improve focus and in terms of memory boosting effects phosphatidylserine [2] is fairly well researched. Their percentage claims are actually relatively reasonable as well, with a 20% improvement in processing speed and 30% increase in comprehension being in line with third party caffeine, kola nut and phosphatidylserine studies. As a result we do actually think Neuroq brain health supplements marketing claims aren't actually bad at all. It isn't the best at anything as a supplement, but their marketing teams ethics are pretty high.

Customers Neuroq Reviews

Neuroq actually has pretty good reviews, and honestly we put this down to the fact that they make reasonable claims. There aren't too many disappointed Neuroq customer reviews on Amazon and after scrolling through most of them seem to be legitimate once you account for the 20 or so that were clearly written by staff, we'd say they average about 4* which is very good for a supplement. Most customers note improved cognitive function, and a reduction in brain fog, but there isn't much in here that should improve mental health, like some people seem to claim.

Neuroq Review FAQ

The most commonly asked questions about Neuroq

Does Neuroq Prevent Cognitive Decline?

It can, once again it's largely reliant on phosphatidylserine for this effect [3]. That said it is reasonably effective for this. So in terms of protecting against cognitive decline there is definitely a decent argument. As for the rest of the ingredients the Ginkgo leaf extract could also be useful for this.

Is Neuroq Safe?

In theory neuroq is safe, it's produced in line with the FDA's supplements guidelines and there's nothing in it that should cause any particular issue. However there may be some Neuroq side effects. The main side effects from phosphatidylserine tend to only come in dosages over 300mg, however, it still can cause insomnia and stomach upset. We'd also suggest that anyone sensitive to caffeine should avoid Neuroq and probably look towards a supplement more like performance lab mind, which does not contain caffeine.

Neuroq Ingredients

Neuroq has a relatively compact ingredients list for a cognitive function enhancer. It's got a few decent ingredients, but as we've already mentioned it has an over reliance on caffeine.

Gotu Kola Aerial Extract - 250mg As we've mentioned Kola contains caffeine, but it also does improve cognitive performance and memory. [4]

Tumeric Extract - 250mg Tumeric isn't a bad ingredient, if we were only picking 5 though, this wouldn't be in it. It has been shown to help prevent cognitive decline though. [5]

Phosphatidylserine - 100mg - We've already talked about Phosphatidylserine a lot. It is the star of the show and has been shown time and time again to be effective at improving brain function. The only issue is that this could possibly be dosed a little bit higher to maximise cognitive performance improvements.

Ginkgo leaf extract - 120mg - Another solid ingredient, it's been shown to improve brain function in otherwise healthy individuals and is being actively trailed for numerous brain conditions.

Coffee Fruit Extract - 100mg Coffee fruit extract has been shown to brain-derived neurotrophic factor, this means it helps you learn faster and build new neural pathways to improve brain function.

Propolis Extract - 75mg This has a host of benefits, everything from antioxidants through to supporting immuno issues. It's a bit of a catch all for a lot of health supplements, but may not be the best thing to include for purely improving cognitive performance.

Unfortunately for Neuroq it misses out more useful ingredients than it contains, it should still help overall healthy brain function, but it's not the best supplement in its class.

Neuroq Review Conclusion

Neuroq is alright, it's just overpriced. It misses out on Citicoline, which is something of an issue in memory and focused boosting supplements. As a result we'd typically recommend that people look at Hunter Focus as a more comprehensive alternative, although it's about $10 a bottle more, but it does have almost 3 times the content.

As for anyone who is sensitive to caffeine, the high caffeine content means that it won't be for everyone and those who are overly sensitive may want to look at something like Performance Lab Mind instead.

Neuroq is fine, and if you've already bought it, then it should be helpful to your overall brain health and cognitive performance, but it's not the best for preventing cognitive decline or mental health. In fact, that's kind of the issue with Neuroq, it's OK, it's just not the best at anything.
