I’ve seen your bacopa monnieri tablets with 24% bacosides, and I’m very interested. I’ve tried the other two patented forms. What advantages would this extract have over Bacognize and Synapsa??

Our 24% bacopa is very similar in bacopaside ratio to Bacognize, but with double the amount. So taking 300mg of our 24% bacopa would be like taking 600mg of Bacognize. They are scored tablets, too. So you can break them in half. This makes them more cost effective and more flexible in dosing. So think of our ND brand bacopa as a double potency Bacognize. Bacognize's bacopaside specs are NLT 12%. Ours are NLT 24%.
Synapsa is a specific extract called CDRI-08, which was researched and developed by the government of India. I would say this one feels different. It actually has about the same amount of bacopasides as Bacognize when looking at the USP mongraph. However, there are a couple other peaks that are not integrated as well. So there are other things in there that likely have effects, but they are not quantified or called bacopasides/bacosides. Identifying and quantifying them would be theoretically possible, but take a lot of work to do. Their NLT spec is 8%, but some batches are higher than that. Most of the time Synapsa is about the same % as Bacognize.
We are actually working on another bacopa extract that we are patenting that will be totally different than all of them. I can't talk about that one too much, but it feels TOTALLY different than any other bacopa on the market.
