Cognitive performance

Supplements studied for cognitive performance.

Overview

Cognitive performance has extensive supplement research. Tyrosine (16 studies) may improve memory, reaction time, and stress-related cognition in healthy adults under acute stressors. Panax Ginseng may help attention and reaction time in middle-aged adults but not consistently in younger groups.

L-Theanine may boost focus at single 100 mg doses and, with caffeine, alertness and accuracy. Rhodiola is marked possibly effective without a detailed summary here. Caffeine shows modest benefits for processing speed, attention, and memory in available research. See the heatmap and evidence reviews below for population and dose detail.
