If you thought Fucoidan was a funny word, get ready to learn all about our latest and greatest addition to BLU FROG® and BLU FROG 2®: nootropics! Pronounced noo · traa · puhks, this term refers to dozens of natural and synthetic substances that affect the brain in incredibly powerful ways.
What Are Nootropics?
By definition, they are a class of substances known to improve overall brain function. Different types of nootropics can be used to affect your brain in various ways, but they’re most commonly used to improve focus, motivation, memory, mood and cognition.
Why Are They Important?
Although your brain only accounts for 2% of your total body weight, it uses more energy than any other single organ in your body. If you’ve ever felt foggy or mentally fatigued, you’ve probably been low on brain power!
One study in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA shows two thirds of the brain’s energy is used to help neurons to “fire” or send signals. This process of signaling between neurons is critical in order for your brain to function at its full potential. When this process breaks down, your health goes along with it. Thankfully, that’s where nootropics can help!
What Can They Do for Your Brain?
Think of your brain as a computer. Without the proper software updates, a reliable WIFI connection and a fully charged battery, it’ll be extremely difficult to get any real work done. Your brain functions the same way—it relies on specific substances and chemicals to work together seamlessly in order to keep your body operating at 100%.
Through consistent use over time, nootropics have been known to help some important neurotransmitters within your brain, including:
- Serotonin, which influences your mood, appetite and sleeping habits
- Dopamine, which controls the flow of information
- Glutamate, which enhances energy flow
- Norepinephrine, which helps attention and focus

L-Theanine is an amino acid that amplifies the positive effects of caffeine while protecting against the negative ones to provide you with pure, laser-focused energy, alertness and mental endurance. Commonly found in green tea, it’s known to help you relax, boost your ability to think and improve focus.
Acetyl-L-carnitine helps with energy production in every cell of the body by maintaining mitochondrial efficiency. Basically, anytime your brain needs a boost, this substance helps facilitate the process of creating energy. The antioxidant properties found in this nootropic have also been known to promote mental alertness.
These powerful substances aren’t visible to the naked eye, nor will you taste them when you take a sip. The proof is in the power you’ll feel thanks to our superior formula, loaded with natural caffeine from guarana seeds, plus our proprietary certified organic, non-GMO LIMU Seaweed Blend™.
