Summary

Nootropics are a group of medicinal substances purported to improve important cognitive functions such as learning, focus and memory. Many of these substances have demonstrated beneficial effects on cognitive performance and overall health. However, a thorough understanding of how these substances and their synergistic effects in the form of a supplement may benefit fundamental brain processes is currently lacking. In the current study, we will investigate the effects of a plant-based, nootropic supplement (https://uk.mindlabpro.com/) on perceptual decision-making (i.e. the ability to make rapid decisions based on sensory stimuli) in healthy adult participants.
