Thirty-one participants completed a beta test to measure the effectiveness of the CogniTrue® nootropic formulation on brain function. The beta test was conducted over three months from November 2024 through January 2025 and included participants from two midwestern states. The assessment tool was the Standardized Concussion Assessment form, ranking 21 items from 0 to 6. These questions related to pain and sensitivity, memory, mental focus, fatigue, and mental anxiety.

The participants were instructed to take the recommended dosage of 2 capsules twice per day for a period of three months and complete the assessment form each week.

The average improvement of the 31 participants was 61%.

The Standardized Concussion Assessment form is attached and consists of the following 22 items:

Headache, pressure in head, neck pain, nausea/vomit, dizziness, blurred vision, balance problems, sensitivity to light, sensitivity to noise, feeling slowed down, feeling “in a “fog,” “Don’t feel right,” difficulty concentrating, difficulty remembering, fatigue or low energy, confusion, drowsiness, trouble falling asleep, more emotional, irritability, sadness, and nervous or anxious.

Improvement was measured from the initial assessment to the final assessment. This provided an overall percentage improvement of total ranking of the severity of symptoms.

Three of the individuals were included in an extended study. These were either elderly or had multiple severe concussions with noted memory issues. The average improvement of this group was 32%.

Participants were asked to write in changes and improvements they experienced in their own words as they completed the standardized forms.

It was noted that some of the participants had lower scores in the first month. This may have been a form of detoxifying as the body was clearing out scaring. Most noticed improvement by the third month of using the product, many had significant results in the second month. Some had unusually stressful situations. While some of the potential participants discontinued due to this, others noted they felt better able to cope through the stressful periods. Others discontinued for reasons of lack of compliance, illness, too many other medications, and reaction to the supplement (mostly detox).
