Brain Wave can cause an almost immediate uplift in some individuals, many people experience the benefits within a few days, however most people will notice changes within 3 to 4 weeks of regular consumption. We recommend taking our product for at least 4 weeks as your response will vary depending on individual factors such as your own absorption abilities, stress levels and adrenal health.

Brain Wave is beneficial for anyone over the age of 12 years old. More specifically however, it has been formulated to support busy parents, professionals in stressful and cognitively demanding roles, students and those that are experiencing poor cognitive functioning, especially brain fog. Furthermore, it will be of benefit to those noticing a decrease in their cognitive functioning post Covid.

We do not recommend taking Brain Wave during pregnancy and we recommend checking with your healthcare professional before use if breastfeeding.

Brain Wave is safe to consume while breastfeeding, however it is not recommended during pregnancy.

Yes! Children from 12 years and above can safely take Brain Wave. Children 12-15 years take 1 capsule daily with food and children 16 years and above take 2 capsules daily with food, or as otherwise prescribed by a healthcare professional.

For adults 16 years and above, take 2 capsules daily with food or as professionally advised. We recommend taking Brain Wave at the same time each day to help build routine and consistency in order to see results. It can be taken at any time of the day that suits your routine, however we enjoy taking ours in the morning to help prepare us for the day ahead.

For Children 12-15 years, take 1 capsule daily with food or as professionally advised.

The formula works on supporting mental energy, clarity, processing and memory while also supporting the body’s stress response. It improves both working and long-term memory as well as improving recall. Most people who have experienced prolonged periods of stress will notice a negative impact on their cognitive abilities whether that be memory recall, speed of processing information or simply getting stuck halfway through a sentence and not knowing what was coming next. The adaptogenic herbs support your recovery and resilience, while other ingredients such as L-theanine improve alertness, reduce fatigue and provide a sense of calm under times of stress so you can achieve focus and maximum productivity even under pressure.

Yes, Brain Wave is vegan friendly making it suitable for both vegans and vegetarians.

Yes! Brain Wave is suitable to take alongside all other Two Islands products as part of your daily wellness routine.

Yes, Brain Wave is free from gluten, dairy, soy, egg, wheat, animal products, added flavours, colours or preservatives.

No, it’s completely caffeine free. Brain Wave does contain L-theanine which is an amino acid extract from green tea, but there is no caffeine in the extract. However, if you’re a fan of a morning coffee there’s no need to cut this out, Brain Wave will actually help to support a more even, less jittery response to caffeine.

Yes, this is one of its main benefits. It helps to improve learning rate, visual recall and processing speed. All of these factors contribute to improving our speed to react and recall information. When most people talk about brain fog they’re typically experiencing difficulty finding words and/or completing sentences and additionally memory loss. Brain Wave will support all of these concerns due to the synergistic action of this comprehensive formula.

A nootropic is a substance that can improve cognitive function, relaxation, mood, attention span, memory or creativity.

The term "nootropics" was traditionally used to categorise chemicals that support cognitive functioning. More recently it has been used in reference to any synthetic or natural substance that may have a positive impact on cognition and general brain health including dietary supplements.

Yes! Memophenol™, one of our key ingredients has been scientifically shown to improve short-term memory and cognitive age. It is a rich source of polyphenols which have a neuroprotective effect on the brain. Organic Lion’s Mane and Bacopa also help to protect the brain, acting as strong inflammation modulating agents as well as delivering antioxidant and immune enhancing properties.

No, in fact it will actually help to calm your nervous system. Brain Wave was formulated to help mental clarity, energy and focus and the ingredients work synergistically to deliver these benefits. The apoptogenic herbs will work on long-term stress resilience and endurance, whereas L-theanine helps to increase alpha brain waves. These are the brain waves that are associated with a calm and collected state. Think of a mental uplift without the intense rush that some people experience from caffeine.

Benefits

Memophenol™ provides a synergistic blend of polyphenol-rich grapes and wild blueberries to protect neuron health and support memory problems working on both short and long-term memory. Bacopa supports this further by improving learning rate, the speed of processing visual information and memory consolidation.

Adaptogenic herbs Bacopa and Siberian Ginseng reduce cortisol levels and the stress and anxiety response whilst also elevating mood. Working alongside is L-theanine, an amino acid commonly included in supplements to calm the brain as it helps to reduce anxiety, reduce sleep disturbances and further support the stress response.

Blueberries help to enhance focus by supporting blood flow and circulation in the area of the brain that supports cognitive function. Regularly consuming Bacopa also improves learning rate and the speed of processing visual information. In some studies, Siberian Ginseng has proven to support brain focus, specifically improving error rate.

Organic Lion’s Mane and Bacopa both help to protect the brain, acting as strong inflammation modulating agents as well as delivering antioxidant and immune enhancing properties. While Memophenol™ provides a unique source of readily available polyphenols that offer further neuroprotective benefits against inflammation.

Organic Lion’s Mane promotes overall brain health by stimulating the growth and repair of neurons, the nerve cells that are the building block of our brain and nervous system. Memophenol™ supports multiple cognitive functions and protects neurons against neuroinflammation and against injury by neurotoxins and enhances brain function.

Less brain fog

I’m enjoying this supplement so far. I wasn’t sure if I would notice a difference but I am. I’m a full time student so I really need my brain to be fully functioning all day every day! I’ve felt more clarity and focus and less brain fog.
