The Clinical OPC® family (150 mg, 300 mg, Extra Strength 400 mg) delivers VX1® at a range of potencies for flexible daily dosing. Clinical Glutathione™—a clinically studied slow-melt glutathione tablet—supports the body’s master antioxidant system, which plays a direct role in supporting healthy brain cells . Resveratrol Complex and Olive Extract EP20™ add complementary polyphenol antioxidant support for a comprehensive brain health routine.*
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Foundational Brain Nutrition*
DHA—the omega-3 fatty acid most concentrated in brain tissue—is a well-documented structural component of neuronal cell membranes and plays a critical role in supporting healthy cognitive function. Vectomega® provides a uniquely bioavailable phospholipid-bound omega-3 from salmon in both capsule and tablet formats, requiring far fewer softgels than standard fish oil concentrates. Aronia Berry 300™ and Aronia Berry Complex™ provide a concentrated aronia berry extract rich in antioxidant polyphenols known for their role in supporting healthy vascular and neurological function.*
Adaptogens, B Vitamins, and CoQ10 for Cognitive Resilience*
Sustained mental performance depends on the body’s ability to manage occasional stress and maintain healthy cellular energy. Andrographis and Ashwagandha pairs two research-backed botanicals to support immune function and the body’s healthy stress response—both relevant to maintaining mental clarity and focus.† GMT23™ Greek Mountain Tea + Bacopa combines two botanicals with research histories for supporting cognitive function and mental calm. BioActive Vitamin B™ delivers B vitamins in active, coenzyme forms studied for their role in supporting brain energy metabolism and neurotransmitter function. BioActive Magnesium Complex provides magnesium in highly bioavailable forms, supporting normal nerve signal conduction and neurological function. CoQ10 Bioactive Ubiquinol and CoQ10 Chewable deliver coenzyme Q10 to support mitochondrial energy production in brain cells.*
†Occasional stress.
Foundational Multivitamins, Sleep, and Cortisol Support for Brain Health*
Comprehensive brain health also depends on sleep quality, stress resilience, and foundational nutritional coverage.†Clinical Essentials® (capsules and tablets) provides a broad-spectrum multivitamin and mineral formula with bioavailable nutrients that support brain and nervous system function.

Cortisol Rescue™ supports healthy cortisol levels already within normal range, which helps maintain sustained focus throughout the day. A-D3-K2, Red Sage Plus, Berberine, and Berberine MetX™ round out this comprehensive category with vascular, metabolic, and cellular health support relevant to long-term brain wellness.*
