Neutonic Brain Capsules (UK edition)

What it does

Neutonic Brain Capsules (UK edition) are the caffeine-free capsules Neutonic sells on its main store, which serves Singapore and Malaysia in pounds sterling. They carry the UK label rather than the US one: the actives and amounts are the same as on the US bottle, but this label prints no bacoside standardisation for the bacopa extract (the US label states 55% bacosides), its ingredient list names 'Panax Ginseng Root' where its dose panel says '200mg Panax Ginseng Extract', and the capsule shell is rice hull concentrate and hypromellose coloured with iron oxide and titanium dioxide. A bottle holds 90 capsules, 30 daily servings of 3; the vendor says the capsules can be taken together or spread through the day. The vitamin blend lists niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin, vitamin B6, thiamin, riboflavin, folic acid (as calcium 5-methyltetrahydrofolate) and vitamin B12 (as cyanocobalamin), which the vendor's panel gives as 100% of the reference intake (RI). The vendor says the capsules are suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

How it works

Citicoline (500mg, as Cognizin®) is a precursor to acetylcholine and phosphatidylcholine; its memory evidence comes from older adults with inefficient memory at 1,000-2,000mg a day (Spiers 1996), and a Cochrane review found no evidence of an attention benefit in older adults with chronic cerebral disorders. Bacopa (300mg) has the most memory evidence here: two 12-week trials in healthy older adults improved delayed word recall at 300mg a day (Calabrese 2008; Morgan & Stevens 2010), though the newest 12-week trial at that dose (Lopresti 2025) found no effect on verbal learning, attention or working memory. Our reference dose is for an extract with at least 50% bacosides, and this label does not print the bacoside content. The positive ginkgo trials were in dementia, mainly at 240mg a day of the EGb 761 extract for 22-26 weeks (Tan 2015 meta-analysis); this product has 120mg with no standardisation on the product page, and the GEM trial found no preventive effect on dementia in people aged 75 and over. Rhodiola is an adaptogen: small trials of the SHR-5 extract found less mental fatigue, but a 2012 systematic review rated every included study at high or unclear risk of bias, and the product page does not say which extract or standardisation is used. We have no reference dose on file for Panax ginseng. Brain Capsules themselves have not been tested in a published trial; the vendor's claims rest on ingredient-level research.

What to expect

Brain Capsules are built for daily use rather than a quick effect: the vendor recommends taking them every day for at least 30 days to experience the full benefits, and the positive bacopa memory trials ran for 12 weeks. There is no caffeine, so the timing is flexible, and the vendor says they can be taken alongside its caffeinated drink. Take 3 capsules a day. Our bacopa page notes digestive effects (increased stool frequency, abdominal cramps, nausea) at 300mg a day in a 12-week trial in older adults, so taking the capsules with food may help. With Singapore selected, a bottle costs £44.99 one-time for 90 capsules (30 servings) or £38.24 a delivery on a subscription (Subscribe & Save 15%), checked 2026-10-19. The product page says 'Worldwide shipping available'; the shipping page has no Singapore or Malaysia section and says 'When ordering internationally you may have to pay import duty depending on what you’ve ordered and its declared value' (neutonic.com/pages/shipping-returns, checked 2026-10-19).
