Welcome to Day 25 of the #HackYourMind Series
Today, we talk about Nootropics.
Nootropics and smart drugs are natural or synthetic substances that can be taken to improve mental performance in healthy people.
They have gained popularity in today’s highly competitive society and are most often used to boost memory, focus, creativity, intelligence, and motivation.
The powerful herbs that fall within the Nootropic category are Brahmi & Gingko Biloba.
Bacopa monnieri, also called brahmi, is a staple plant in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. A class of powerful compounds called bacosides in Bacopa monnieri is believed to be responsible for these benefits: * Contain powerful antioxidants.
* Reduce inflammation.
* Boost brain function.
* Help reduce ADHD symptoms.
* Prevent anxiety and stress.
* Help lower blood pressure levels.
* Have anticancer properties.
Ginkgo biloba, or maidenhair, is a tree native to China that has been grown for thousands of years for a variety of uses.
Because it’s the only surviving member of an ancient order of plants, it's sometimes referred to as a living fossil.
While its leaves and seeds are often used in traditional Chinese medicine, modern research primarily focuses on ginkgo extract, which is made from the leaves.
Gingko’s benefits are similar to that of Brahmi.
These supplements are generally safe for all healthy adults but I recommend asking your physician if you can take them.

As far as research is concerned (because of the amount of research available on it), Rhodiola is likely the most popular adaptogenic herb next to Panax Ginseng.
-
Rhodiola is a perennial flower from Northern Europe and East Asia that, for hundreds of years, has been used to treat depression, anxiety, and mental fatigue, as well as heighten focus during stressful situations. In this case, Vikings from Scandinavia used Rhodiola to improve their performance on the battlefield.
-
Rhodiola raises levels of amines in the brain like serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine while preventing their breakdown by inhibiting MAO-a (primarily breaks down tyramine, dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine) and MAO-b (primarily breaks down dopamine, benzylamine and phenethylamine). So basically, you have more excitatory neurotransmitters that can work for longer periods of time.
-
The active compounds in Rhodiola have available research to support its use as an antioxidant, antimicrobial, neuroprotectant and antidiabetic (salidroside has shown to alleviate insulin resistance through activation of Sirtuin and AMPK pathways) herb. Make sure your Rhodiola contains a minimum of 3% Rosavins and 1% Salidrosides.

L-theanine is an amino acid, turned nootropic supplement that was isolated from green tea in 1949.
-
L-Theanine has been used for Centuries by Monks to sustain longer meditative states (likely in the form of different teas).
-
This is likely due to the ability of L-theanine to raise GABA and dopamine (and to a lesser extent, serotonin) levels in specific parts of the brain that are accompanied by spikes in Alpha Brain Waves (which research has shown in humans). In addition, L-theanine (under certain circumstances and in certain parts of the brain) can act as a weak, competitive antagonist at glutamate receptors.
-
Alpha Brain Waves are most commonly present during "idle wakefulness" when the eyes are closed, daydreaming or light periods of meditation. Creating the optimal environment with the necessary substrate for light meditation would allow monks to meditate for longer periods of at a time (think of it as supplying more fuel and nutrients for a longer workout).
