Focus - Productivity | Brain | Memory

Most cognitive supplements do one thing. A nootropic stack hits acetylcholine. A focus pill adds caffeine. A brain vitamin gives you B12 and calls it a day. The problem is that real sustained cognitive performance requires multiple systems working together - not one lever pulled hard.

Focus was built around that reality. Nine ingredients covering the neurological, circulatory, adaptogenic, and mineral layers of cognitive support. Lion's Mane for NGF activity. Ginkgo for circulation. Rhodiola for calm adaptogenic support during demanding tasks. Green Tea for calm focus. And the mineral foundation - Zinc, Iron, and Magnesium - that most cognitive formulas skip entirely because they cost more and do not make for exciting marketing.

The mineral gap is real. Zinc, Iron, and Magnesium play foundational roles in cognitive function - supporting the neurotransmitter pathways involved in focus, mood, and mental energy. Many people are undersupported in one or more of these through diet alone.

No stimulants. No shortcuts. Focus is built for consistent daily use, not one-off dosing before an exam. The cognitive support compounds cumulatively - Lion's Mane NGF activity, Rhodiola adaptogenic support, Magnesium nervous system calm - all work better over weeks than over hours.

The people who feel the most from it are consistent daily users.

Serving Size: 2 Capsules p/serving (1200mg)

Lion's Mane - Full Spectrum | 200mg - The only mushroom studied for its role in supporting Nerve Growth Factor activity. Full spectrum - fruiting body and mycelium together - providing both hericenones and erinacines. The environment and the activator. Most Lion's Mane supplements only have one. This has both. See the Lion's Mane standalone page for the full science.

Shiitake Mushroom | 200 mg - A dual-role mushroom in this formula. Shiitake contributes to long-term cognitive resilience through its beta-glucan content and antioxidant compounds, and supports immune function - which matters for cognitive consistency. A compromised immune system creates cognitive drag. Shiitake supports both the brain health and immune resilience layers simultaneously.

Rhodiola Rosea (3% Rosavins/1% salidrosides) | 250mg - A well-studied adaptogen traditionally used to support the body's natural response to physical and mental demands. Rhodiola supports calm, sustained focus during mentally taxing tasks and contributes to mental resilience under pressure. The adaptogenic anchor of the formula - not a stimulant, but a nervous system support that helps maintain composure and concentration when demands are highest.

Green Tea Extract | 100mg - Provides L-theanine and EGCG. L-theanine supports focused attention without overstimulation - the calm alertness that green tea has been valued for historically. EGCG contributes antioxidant support. Pairs with Ginkgo for the complete circulation and calm focus layer. The difference between focused calm and wired distraction lives in this pairing.

Magnesium l-threonate | 200mg - Supports nervous system calm, energy production, and the neurotransmitter pathways involved in mood and mental resilience. Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body and is one of the most widely undersupported minerals in modern diets. In Focus it provides the calm, grounded foundation that sustained concentration depends on - without it the other cognitive ingredients have less to build on.

Zinc Glycinate| 20mg - A foundational mineral for cognitive function. Zinc plays a role in the neurotransmitter pathways involved in focus and mood, supports healthy immune function, and is one of the minerals most commonly undersupported through diet alone. In Focus it is part of the mineral foundation layer - the raw material support that most cognitive supplements overlook because it is less exciting than a botanical extract.

Iron (Ferrous Gluconate) | 20mg - Supports oxygen transport and energy metabolism - both foundational to sustained cognitive performance. Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional gaps globally and one of the most impactful on cognitive clarity and mental energy. Focus includes Iron because without adequate iron the brain simply does not have the oxygen and energy substrate it needs to perform consistently.

Piperine (Black Pepper Extract) | 5mg - The bioavailability layer. Piperine inhibits certain metabolic enzymes that break down active compounds before full absorption, supporting the uptake of the other ingredients in the formula. A small dose doing a significant job behind the scenes - particularly relevant for Zinc, Magnesium, and Green Tea EGCG.

2 capsules daily with food.

Take in the morning or early afternoon - before the cognitive demands of the day hit, not after you are already scattered.

1. Morning foundation - Take with breakfast. The mineral layer - Zinc, Iron, Magnesium - absorbs better with food. This also sets the cognitive tone for the day before demands accumulate.

2. Before deep work - For demanding focus sessions, take 30 to 60 minutes before sitting down to work. The Ginkgo and Green Tea support kicks in within that window. The Lion's Mane and mineral support is cumulative underneath.

3. Stack with Einstein - Focus plus Salty Einstein is the complete cognitive stack. Einstein adds Creatine HCL brain energy, Magnesium L-Threonate, and electrolyte support. Focus adds the adaptogenic, mineral, and immune resilience layers. Together they cover the full picture.

4. Be consistent - Lion's Mane NGF support, Rhodiola adaptogenic support, and the mineral foundation all build cumulatively. Two to four weeks of daily use is where the difference becomes most apparent. This is not a one-day supplement.
