It has been a long year looking for supplements that will help me improve the way I perform both at school and at work so when a friend told me they had been taking NeuroCell I jumped on the idea immediately. I have tried numerous supplements in the past and at this point I am pretty skeptical. My friend has just ordered it so she doesn’t have any real experience with it but claims that she did the research and was very happy with what she found. This simply isn’t enough for me to go out and buy it, but certainly more than enough to get me to research it for myself.
Today nootropics have grown into a craze with new products coming out every day, websites all nearly identical without any real changes except for the name of the product, and unfortunately numerous scams that are trying to get you to give your precious credit card so they can make charges of absurd amounts which you did not approve. These are all things that worry me as I have experienced them firsthand when I initially started my search.
All About NeuroCell
Well, I think it is pretty straightforward when it comes to what this supplement is. It has numerous promises of being the number one on the market and being highly sought after. They claim that it will improve your memory, the way you focus, your concentration, and in general how your brain organizes information and works under pressure. Certainly all benefits that we can enjoy. Working full time and taking night courses in the college are taking a toll on my body and brain and I feel the need to give it an extra boost. They claim that the powerful nootropic formula I NeuroCell is exactly what you need if you have been overstressing your brain, your brain has dwindled in performance over time, or you simply feel like it is not performing as well as it did in the past.
What is in NeuroCell?
Though the official website did not share a list of ingredients I was happy to find a Supplement Facts Sheet on an external website. As I have learned from past experience, this doesn’t necessarily mean that it is accurate so don’t attack me if in the end it’s not accurate. It was the only one I have found and it was from what looked like a reliable source.

The ingredients are:
Caffeine obviously has plenty of great benefits but comes with some nasty side effects such as insomnia, nervousness, restlessness, and more. Unfortunately, it is because of this one ingredient that I cannot order this product but decided to continue researching it for anyone else that does not have health issues that could be affected by caffeine.
GABA is actually a great ingredient used in a number of supplements but has not been researched in depth to actually confirm its effectiveness scientifically. It has great effects on stress though in numerous researches as well as its ability to improve memory and attention. Taking it up to 12 weeks has not shown any side effects, studies so far have not gone beyond that but I have found no serious complaints from in other supplements.
Bacopa Monnieri is proven to be effective in improving memory as well as possibilities of numerous other benefits which are currently still being researched. There are no listed side effects and it is considered safe.
Alpha GPC has been proven to improve thinking skills of those suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease over a span of 3 to 6 month studies. It does have minor side effects such as heartburn, headache, insomnia, etc.
L-Theanine has a number of benefits including aiding in the treatment of anxiety and preventing Alzheimer’s Disease to making cancer drugs more effective. It has been researched only for short-term use as studies do not go beyond 3 weeks for this ingredient.
Phosphatidylserine is proven to support age-related mental decline and improves memory in individuals with age-associated memory loss as well as improves the symptoms of Alzheimer’s Disease among other possible benefits. Do note that you can experience insomnia as well as stomach upset.
L-Tyrosine early researches show that it is effective in improving mental performance, memory, and alertness following lack of sleep. May experience nausea, headache, fatigue, heartburn, and joint pain.
Vinpocetine though it is confirmed to have a small effect on the decline of thinking skill it is not yet proven to improve memory and other brain related benefits. Possibility of side effects are dizziness, nervousness, headache, and more.
Huperzine A has been proven to be effective for both dementia as well as improving memory. It has a long list of possible side effects though so make sure you read through them carefully.
You can click on each of the ingredients to get more information about them, dosage, uses, side effects and more. Do note that with nearly all ingredients, even natural, the possibilities of side effects still stand so do not be put off by the possibilities of side effects in these ingredients as in most cases they are not experienced. They are just as a precaution to keep in mind.
How to Buy NeuroCell?
This to me is the most important part of my reviews. This is how you know whether the product you are considering is a scam or not. I liked that this product does not have a Free Trial offer which means that there are no memberships or auto-ship programs. Its straight forward 3 options for purchase and 2 shipping options:
- 5 Bottles – $159.95
- 3 Bottles – $123.82
- 1 Bottle – $57.95
You can select free standard shipping or expedite shipping at $6.99. They also offer a 60 day money back guarantee but in all honestly there is always a loophole through which they find a way out of it. I read through the terms but found no such thing, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it isn’t there.
