Neuriva Plus is a mediocre product at best, it contains 2 ingredients that we expect to see in a half decent nootropic, but then proceeds to put a premium price tag on itself. If Neuriva was $20 a bottle not $68 then it may be passable. However, when we compare it other products in its price bracket, then Neuriva plus doesn’t even come close.
Phosphatidylserine is actually a good ingredient, it’s been proven to help protect cells [1] in your brain and is responsible for carrying messages between them. It’s even being trialed in the treatment of numerous degenerative issues for brain health [2]. But, it’s really the star of the show and considering it makes an appearance in pretty much everything on our best nootropics list, for a far cheaper price point, we can’t recommend Neuriva Plus.
It’s also the only ingredient in Neuriva that really belongs in a nootropic supplement. As such Neuriva plus misses out on the most well backed nootropics of Citicoline, which is the most effective none stimulant for boosting focus and memory [3], not to mention any mood booster or focus booster.
In short Neuriva is incredibly overpriced for something that contains only a single active ingredient which can be purchased for a fraction of the cost.
If you're looking for something around Neuriva's price point that actually is good value, then we recommend Hunter Focus.
Customers Neuriva Plus Reviews
There are, to be fair, a reasonable number of positive neuriva reviews, that do seem to be legitimate, and as we’ve already said a couple of the ingredients in Neuriva aren’t bad, so this isn’t a massive shock. People cite that it does help with things like concentration, memory, and focus, and there’s a lot of what people want it to do. However, these are outweighed by the number of customers that simply say the product doesn’t work. The reality is the main impact that Neuriva should have is on healthy brain aging. As a result, we expect that these reviews are pretty accurate. Our experience of Neuriva was also that it wasn’t particularly effective in comparison to our usual nootropics.
Neuriva Plus Ingredients
So, Neuriva get’s one thing right in Phosphatidylserine, but beyond that it’s a blend of B vitamins and some coffee cherry, not particularly anything exciting to write home about.
Phosphatidylserine - is generally used as a supplement to promote brain health as we age. Studies have suggested that the amount of this phospholipid that protects brain cells we produce declines as we get older, which is where the idea to supplement it has come from. There are several studies which back it’s efficacy with participants showing increased short term memory, concentration and mood (although the latter only minimally and we wouldn’t say this is statistically significant). There have been some studies on the ingredient as a potentially treatment for symptoms of illnesses which cause brain fog and cognitive decline, but not enough where this can be claimed with certainty. Neuriva Plus does however get the dosage right, 100mg is generally what’s recommended so we do give it some credit for that.
Coffee cherry - is on the other hand not a great ingredient for a brain booster, the only studies that really show it does much have only been done on mice. And even then, they show improved immune cells, not actually anything to do with improving cognitive performance.
B Vitamins – B6, B12 and Folate are essential for brain health, and they are somewhat useful for boosting energy, but they’re also something that comes in pretty much every energy drink and that a supplement for should only set you back a couple of dollars. They’re not going to have a dramatic effect unless you’re deficient and very few people are.
Coffee Fruit Extract – Coffee Fruit can help raise your brains neurotophic factor, which is the protein that protects your brain cells from damage, it’s not a terrible ingredient, it’s just minimally effective and is a relatively cheap ingredient that a lot of other nootropics include as a bulk up ingredient rather than it being a headliner.
Neuriva Plus Review Conclusion
Neuriva plus misses out on some of the better nootropic ingredients such as Citicoline, Bacopa and a host of other better ingredients for some cheap fillers. It get’s the PS right, but that’s about the only positive we can say about Neuriva Plus. Neuriva Plus doesn’t stack up to much, sure phosphatidylserine is a decent nootropic ingredient, but at $68, we expect more than one decent ingredient. Neuriva doesn’t hold a candle to any of the best nootropics on the market.
We’d recommend that if you’re looking for a complete nootropic supplement that aids concentration, focus and promotes overall brain health then you look at hunter focus, it’s about the same price and contains far more effective ingredients than Neuriva Plus.
