Most brain health supplements never had a chance.

In 2019, AARP's Global Council on Brain Health reviewed the evidence and couldn't endorse a single brain supplement on the market.

Here's why

Most supplements Mentaid
Made by someone who knows nothing about treating patients' brain health
Founded by PE groups, VCs, businessmen Who saw brain health as a lucrative business to exploit A practicing psychiatrist Who treats patients' brain health every day
Doctor type PhD (lab research) Studying cells in a lab ≠ treating a patient MDs and clinical practitioners Who see real patients every week
Doctor's role Advisory — reviewed, didn't build Name goes on the box. That's it. Built every step of the formula In the room for every hard decision
Endorsements Paid "doctor recommended" badges A few thousand a month. That's a line item, not an opinion. Declined paid badges The doctors are the founders
Jack of all trades, master of none
Ingredients Dozens If everything's in it, nothing was chosen carefully 6 Every one earned its place
Lithium ✕ Not included The ingredient in every major brain study — missing ✓ Included Micro-dosed, as the research supports
Focus Brain, gut, immunity, everything Does everything, does nothing well Brain health One thing. Done right.
Products A whole catalog Experts in none — except cross-sells One That's it.
