Brain Supportis a dietary supplement manufactured by Vitabase, an American company with a good reputation.It is marketed as a blend of six different, manufactured under strict quality control standards. The product is designed as a memory and concentration enhancer. Some of the advertised advantages of the formula are that it provides the body with optimal levels of naturally occurring flavone glycosides (which act as antioxidants) and terpene lactones (believed to be responsible for the increase of blood flow in the brain). Both substances are active constituents in one of the formula’s main ingredient, namely Ginkgo Biloba.

Although the manufacturer discloses no information on potential side effects or special precautions, we advise our readers to be cautious and always seek medical advice prior to starting a treatment that includes dietary supplements.
