Optimind? Nootropics?
 
Feel free to shoot to this down as I am not advocating for its use but I was just curious if anyone knew anything about this?
*edit*
It could be just another one of those "Brain enhancement" fad drugs that is either unsafe or doesn't work but I don't see anything bad in its formula rather I just see a lot of the supplements that overlap with concussion nutrition.

Any thoughts?

They tell you what is in it but don't tell you what doses except 385 iu of D-3 and 500 mcgs of B-12. Even these are low doses for brain nutrition needs. I find these limited information supplements a concern. The FDA approved claims are just as troubling. Misleading claims just add to the questions. The money back guarantee is misleading, too. Far too many strikes against it in my opinion.

Often, the taurine and caffeine are enough to make customers think it is working.

At $2.00 per day, you can add a few things to the stack in the Vitamins sticky and be way ahead.

You would be better off just starting the Vitamins in the sticky. These exotic substances and nootropics will not help you recover.

I mean that makes sense... I had my suspicions as well. I just didn't know if some of the other ingredients within the formula were either new or original and something people either weren't aware of or hadn't tried for PCS.
