    Finally help to Improve Cognitive Performance, Focus, Recall, Mood and Working Memory

    Finally help to Improve Cognitive Performance, Focus, Recall, Mood and Working Memory

    Neurologix™ is a non-stimulant nootropic supplement formulated with modern, clinically studied ingredients for enhanced cognitive performance.* Neurologix is designed to improve cognitive function, including sustained concentration, focus, and brain energy metabolism.* Formulated with Neumentix® spearmint extract, Cognizin® citicoline, saffron extract, and the active form of vitamin B6.

    Neurologix is formulated to improve cognitive processes associated with working memory and concentration, and promote neurotransmitter levels such as acetylcholine in the brain.†* These benefits are suggested to occur through hypothesized mechanisms of action such as protecting brain tissue and neurons from oxidative stress.

    The key ingredients in Neurologix have been featured in several human clinical trials demonstrating significant cognitive effects in individuals.

    Neumentix® spearmint extract contains phenolic compounds, including rosemarinic acid, that improve sustained mental focus and cognitive performance and support working memory for individuals experiencing age-related decline.*

    Cognizin® Citicoline helps support brain energy metabolism and fuel mental processes, enhancing frontal lobe bioenergetics and increasing a marker of ATP levels in the brain.* Human clinical studies demonstrate the ability of saffron extract to support a positive mood and stabilize mood fluctuations.*

    †Memory improvement shown for those with age-related decline.*

    Chronic Sleep Issues? Maybe you need to change your daily routine.

    Chronic Sleep Issues? Maybe you need to change your daily routine.

    Kali Patrick - Helping stressed-out, busy professionals learn to sleep better.
    Our lives have become more stressed recently. Many people feel they are anxious about the future, family, employment.

    This can affect our sleep. Good sleep is very important to good health. When we sleep well, we recharge our adrenals, detox, and repair damage from injuries and daily wear and tear.

    Knowing what condition your adrenals are in is very helpful, and the proper support nutritionally can help them calm down if to revved up or help them regenerate if they are burnt out.

    But wait, there is more!

    If our daily schedule, lifestyle is contributing to the high stress/anxiety, we need to learn tools to help us deal with these stressors or ways to remove them. Supplementation is very important, but addressing the why the adrenals/sleep was pushed out of balance is key to healing.

    Kali Patrick discusses Sleep Coaching: what it is, what it can do, and how to find more information about is working with a Sleep Wellness Coach right for you.
