The STACK3D Review
"Brain Gains Nootropic Brain Fuel is one of the best focus products we’ve had the pleasure of reviewing. Not only does it very noticeably work, but it comes through with a complete focus experience like no other. It elevates your mental game better than almost every other competitor in the category and is well worth picking up."

KeaLad Recommendations for Usage
As you can see above, most of the nootropic dosages are quite generous, and it is for this reason that the VitaKea Team would recommend using only one scoop at a time. Best enjoyed with ~350ml water + ice. It won't keep you up at night, so afternoon usage is fine, though for maximal gains, sip on it sometime in the morning. Not about that luxurious water and ice life? Well rest assured... Brain Gains is dry-scoop-to-the-dome approved by Lloyd @thecavenutritionstore! 🤣 Flavour wise, Mango, Watermelon and Strawberry Kiwi are all absolutely stellar.
On the One or Two scoop debate:
From our own usage we find that the noticeable cognitive value seems to be nearly equal when we supplement a single scoop as opposed to two, and this way you'll get more Gains for your dollar... doubling the number of servings per tub (20 serves @2Scoops; 40 Serves @1Scoop). IF you are really keen to take it up a notch, you can also try splitting your servings across the day. Eg. One in the morning, One in the afternoon.
And as per usual, remember that you are a unique human being, with any supplement we recommend you experiment to find your own personal sweet spot dosage and go with that!

KeaLad Recommendations for Usage
As with the Standard Edition Brain Gains, the nootropic dosages are quite generous, and it is for this reason that the VitaKea Team would recommend using only one scoop at a time. Best enjoyed with ~350ml water + ice. This formula does come with a notable stack of PurCaf Caffeine and Dynamine which should provide moderate stimulation, so best taken at least 6 hours away from bed time.
With the inclusion of the Dynamine and Caffeine, the flavours aren't as nice as the standard Nootropic Brain Fuel, but all are still quite palatable, mango being the best.
On the One or Two scoops:
While for the standard edition we generally discourage two scoops, from experience, the second scoop seems to provide minimal value. However with BLACK EDITION the target is a more stimulated focus, which could quite potentially have more returned gains when dosing the second scoop. The stimulants present will also make the abundance of other supporting ingredients more useful as well.
So in the case of BLACK EDITION, supplementing with a second scoop a few hours after the first could provide value.
And as per usual, remember that you are a unique human being, with any supplement we recommend you experiment to find your own personal sweet spot dosage and go with that!

Brain Gains
Nootropic Sleep Aid (BLACK EDITION)
Regular price $89.50Extra "Switch Off" with BLACK Edition
The Brain Gains Nootropic Sleep Aid Black Edition is a Non-Habit forming, Sedative Free… Nootropic Sleep Aid!
It takes all the great points from the original formula and cranks it up with a few worthy additions: 5-HTP, Mangolia Officinalis and Melissa Officinalis. The Nootropic Sleep Aid helps you refuel and repair whilst sleeping in preparation for the following day by ensuring your brain and body stays topped up with what it needs to perform at optimum levels.
5-HTP
5-HTP is a direct natural precursor to serotonin. Serotonin can be converted into the hormone melatonin. These two hormones play and important role in regulating the sleep-wake cycle. Supplementing 5-HTP may reduce the time it takes to fall asleep, increase sleep duration and improve sleep quality.
Magnolia Officinalis (aka. Magnolia Bark)
Magnolia Bark, also known as Magnolia Officinalis, is natural compound used in traditional Chinese practices and known for its ability to support healthy sleep habits and its relaxation properties. This natural bark extract may boost GABA and lower levels of adrenaline and cortisol. It might improve sleep by increasing the time you spend in REM and NREM sleep and reducing time to fall asleep. It has also been studied to reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Melissa Officinalis (aka. Lemon Balm)
Commonly known as Lemon Balm, Melissa Officinalis is an ingredient that has been popular historically as a sleep aid, with known use cases in Greece dating before 146BC. Most Lemon Balm benefits are also attributed to its GABA system interactions. Rather than using a GABA supplement, lemon balm extract regulates a compound that blocks GABA known as GABA transaminase, helping to relax the brain before sleep to support relaxation and sleep promotion.
Increased "Switch Off"
Together with the standard formula, these ingredients will further help you get into a more relaxed state so that you can switch off busy thoughts, fall asleep quicker and get a better quality and longer duration of overall sleep. Not only does the Nootropic Sleep Aid improve your sleep, but it also has the ability to improve brain functions such as memory, creativity and motivation. Compounds such as Bacopa, Lions Mane and Phosphatidylserine are known to be valuable nootropics that improve cognitive function and long term brain health.
