#23. BrainQuicken

by Body Quick, LLC

BrainQuicken is a very common type of herbal remedy approach to brain nutrition supplementation. It uses a method of treating the brain very similar to that of many other products we have reviewed on this website. What is very interesting about BrainQuicken and the company behind it is that it has been changed over 27 times in just six years. This is something that has raised a flag for us when creating this review.

Is BrainQuicken Right For You?

BrainQuicken (also known under the brand name BodyQuick) is a very common type of herbal remedy approach to brain nutrition supplementation that claims to improve study skills, memory and athletic performance. The company behind this product is Body Quick.

The formula uses a method of treating the brain very similar to that of many other products we have reviewed on this website. However, what is very interesting about this supplement and the company behind it is that it has been changed over 27 times in just six years. This is something that has raised a flag for us when creating this review. While there is no harm or fault in trying to improve a supplement, when claims are made about how effective the BrainQuicken ingredients are, only to be changed again next month, it raises eyebrows. Not only that, but as this is an herbal approach to brain supplementation, there is only so much that is can offer.

The claims made by the manufacturer are not supported with any scientific data however. According to the official website, this product is accompanied by a 60-day, 110% money-back guarantee. However, when we tried to access this option, the website said this offer is “on hold”, and the product is only available from online retailers. Thus, there seems to be no real money-back guarantee or free trials of this product available.

Ingredients of BrainQuicken

BrainQuicken includes the following ingredients: Cobalamin, Niacinamide, Folic Acid, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, Pyridoxine HCL, Pantothenic Acid (Calcium Pantothenate), Proprietary Cognamine™ Complex (including components of: Phosphatidylserine, Choline Bitartrate, Vinpocetine, Salix Alba, Thioctic Acid, L-Tyrosine, Ciwujia.

Effectiveness of BrainQuicken

Just like with most herbal supplements, no double blind studies have been conducted on this product. On top of that, we had some serious troubles in identifying the official website of this supplement. Furthermore, the website looks more like a TV infomercial than an actual source of information for those interested in purchasing BrainQuicken. The product claims to improve study skills, memory, athletic performance and it claims to be a safe stimulant.

As there is no evidence to back it up, it is unclear if this supplement will improve your health at all. The product is not suitable for vegetarians and there are no free samples available, which is something that we look for when rating supplements on this website.

Also from a brain nourishment standpoint, all herbal remedy approaches do is to produce an artificial environment by stimulating certain neurotransmitters in the brain, without actually providing the much needed neuro-nutrients that are natural and get the brain working as it was designed to do. With the herbal approach, there are no long term benefits, it only a short term band-aid.

BrainQuicken Price

BrainQuicken is an average-priced supplement but some consumers may not be able to afford it. This product is available in bottles of 90 capsules each, which should be enough for 45 days of treatment at a recommended dosage of 2 capsules per day.

BrainQuicken appears to be available for purchase from online retailers only. Some retailers may offer additional discounts. When placing an order, please take into consideration the shipping costs as well.

Does BrainQuicken Work?

BrainQuicken has received many negative reviews and testimonials. The lack of information and the questionable claims from the official website are raising a red flag on this product. While the manufacturer and some of its retailers are mentioning a 60-day, 110% money-back guarantee, when we tried to access this option, the website said this offer is “on hold”, and the product is only available from online retailers.

This supplement claims to improve mental and athletic performance. The formula contains many vitamins and minerals that are beneficial to overall health but the effectiveness of BrainQuicken or the manufacturer’s claims have not been scientifically established.

I am struggling with a lot of focus/attention difficulties. This is especially a problem on the job. I bought this hoping that it would help. It did not work for me.

I tried three bottles of BrainQuicken with a range of 2 capsules a day in the beginning to 8 a day at the end. I noticed no difference at all, even in situations ideal for focus and concentration.

Looking at the ingredients which contain l-tyrosine and vinpocetine, it should increase the levels of dopamine and norepinephrine in the blood and should increase blood supply to the brain. I could imagine it having a temporary effect and could be a useful pick-me-up. What worries me from looking at the ingredients is that it doesn’t give specific amounts of each nutrient for the “cognamine” formula. Therefore, it’s difficult to figure out what you’re getting and what effect it’s likely to have. I suspect this might have a short term energising effect on a healthy brain but it’s not something that should be used to treat an attention disorder.

I think some people don’t know the proper timing or dosage. But I definitely noticed a difference. I used it twice and I was sold. I bought two bottles. I have another friend who uses it and we went from being pretty good to the highest grades on tests. I realize there are tons of factors that come in to play. But the substantial difference I noticed would be a result of taking this product. Tim Ferris designed this product who is pretty much a certified genius. And in the article above it says that the product has been changed 27 times in 6 years….. So? If they found out little improvements along the way why not change it some? I don’t find that shady. And not to mention you didn’t even specify what changed exactly. The management? The location of the supplier? The formula of the supplement? Be more specific please.

The first day I tried this I didn’t notice a difference, but the second day and for the last 4 months of taking it, there has been a HUGE difference in the amount of energy I have and my ability to concentrate while studying. I’m sorry to hear that it wasn’t as helpful for some of you.

Can you not be so repetitive, we got it the first time when you said its changed 27 times and it has vitamins in it. People don’t like wasting their time reading the same things over and over again.
