BacoMind® is a clinically researched, patented extract of Bacopa monnieri, a herb that has been a staple in traditional Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. Known for its ability to support memory, learning, and overall cognitive function, Bacopa monnieri has recently gained the attention of modern science for its potential benefits in brain health.

Additionally, BacoMind® is the only bacopa extract supported by a human safety clinical study. The results of five clinical studies show that it helps to improve cognitive function and memory during aging and is safe.

BacoMind® has been specifically designed to maximize the absorption of the herb’s active compounds, making it a superior choice compared to other Bacopa extracts on the market. BacoMind® also boasts an impressive profile of nine bioactive compounds that have been shown to enhance mental performance and protect against age-related cognitive decline.

How Does BacoMind® Work?

BacoMind® works by increasing communication between neurons, enhancing the brain’s ability to retain and process information.

It also supports the function of neurotransmitters like acetylcholine, which are crucial for learning and memory.

Additionally, BacoMind® acts as an antioxidant, helping to protect brain cells from oxidative stress, which can be a factor in cognitive aging.

The neuroprotective properties of BacoMind® make it a powerful tool for maintaining sharp cognitive function as you age.* Whether you’re looking to improve memory, acquisition or/and retention, BacoMind® is designed to help keep your brain performing at its best.*

Your Guide to ‘Sharpening the Saw’ and Enhancing Cognitive Renewal

I have a bit of guilty pleasure…

I’ve always enjoyed reading self-improvement books; I’ve probably read dozens of them over the years.

Do I implement all of the things in the pages of these books? Definitely not, but if I can even get one useful tip out of a book, I consider that a win.

“The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey is an all-time classic.

It’s full of incredible tips to increase productivity (well, seven tips, to be exact), but I want to pull out my favorite tip and share it with you.

Hopefully, this will help you as much as it’s helped me over the years.

Habit #7, “Sharpen the Saw,” emphasizes the importance of continuous self-renewal in order to maintain productivity over the long term.

In other words, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.”

Basically, if you’re using your saw all day for work, it’s going to get dull eventually. You need to do something else in order to keep it sharp.

The “saw” is your brain.

This habit is crucial for maintaining overall effectiveness and long-term success. The key aspect of this habit is mental renewal, which can be significantly enhanced with the right support.

The Importance of Mental Renewal

Mental renewal involves engaging in activities that stimulate and refresh the mind, such as reading, learning new skills, and exercising. It’s about keeping your cognitive abilities sharp, adaptable, and resilient by supplementing them with other types of activities.

Because without regular mental rejuvenation, our effectiveness diminishes.

In addition to sharpening your saw with physical and mental activities, you can also feed your brain by providing it with the nutrients it needs to thrive.

Dynamic Brain and Mental Renewal

Enter Dynamic Brain by Stonehenge Health, a supplement designed to optimize brain health and cognitive function.*

Dynamic Brain is formulated with a blend of 40 ingredients that support various aspects of cognitive health, making it an ideal companion in your quest to sharpen the saw.

Let’s take a closer look at some of these ingredients.

New Recipe: Brain-Boosting Summer Wraps

What makes food ‘healthy’ in your mind?

We all have pre-determined notions of what ‘healthy’ means to us, but if you take a second to examine why you hold these beliefs, I know you’ll learn something.

So let’s give it a try—really.

Is a certain food healthy because it’s low in calories? Because it’s a vegetable?

Sorry, this was kind of a trick question…

Because when it comes to ‘healthy’ food, balance is key. Our bodies require a variety of nutrients, and no single item can provide everything. This opens up a world of possibilities to explore the diverse offerings of nature while nourishing our bodies.

Today, I want to give you a (delicious) recipe that I’ve developed to help nurture your brain.

That’s right, today’s healthy recipe is designed with ingredients research shows support brain health. In other words we’re feeding it the vitamins and nutrients it craves. I’ll even give you a quick breakdown of how each ingredient supports healthy brain function at the end.

I call this one my Brain-Boosting Summer Wraps…

It’s delicious and light (perfect for summer), easy to make, and full of the ingredients you need to help you stay mentally sharp.

Ingredients

For the wraps:

• 4-100% whole wheat tortillas

• 1 cup cooked quinoa

• 1 cup cooked chickpeas

Directions

Prepare the quinoa and chickpeas:

1. Rinse the quinoa under cold water.

3. Add the quinoa, reduce the heat to low, and cover.

4. Simmer for 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed.

5. Remove from heat and let it cool.

6. Drain and rinse the chickpeas if using canned.

Prepare the yogurt dressing:

7. In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.

Nutritional Info:

Servings: 4 / Serving Size: 1 wrap / Calories: 400-450 / Fat: 18g-22g / Protein: 20g-25g / Carbohydrates: 40g-45g / Sugar: 5g-7g / Fiber: 8g-10g

These brain-boosting summer wraps are packed with nutrients, combining the cognitive benefits of Bacopa monnieri and choline with a rich mix of vitamins, minerals, Omega-3 fatty acids, complex carbohydrates, and protein.

Two standout brain nutrients in this recipe are:

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Walnuts, Salmon, and avocado in this recipe provide essential omega-3s. The brain is the fattiest organ in the body (composed of about 60% fat!) which is why it’s essential to supply your brain with this nutrient.

Choline: Eggs are one of the best sources of choline. A nutrient crucial to producing acetylcholine, which supports memory, learning, concentration, and motor skills.That’s why adding choline into your daily diet can help improve memory and attention in healthy adults

There’s another powerful brain ingredient I want to bring to your attention.

Bacopa Monnieri is lesser known outside of the health and wellness space, but it’s effect on cognitive function is definitely worth noting.

Now it’s not always easy to find in the average grocery store. So don’t worry if you have to leave it out of these wraps. I assure you they’ll still taste just as delicious.

Unfortunately, you’re unlikely to find Bacopa Monnieri in many recipes, and even if you do, you’re unlikely to get sufficient quantity needed to provide the cognitive benefits like memory, focus, and learning.*

I urge you to get it in a supplement form.

This is where Dynamic Brain from Stonehenge Health can help.

Packed with 40 unique ingredients, including potent servings of the choline and Bacopa Monnieri, Dynamic Brain’s impressive nootropic blend helps support healthy concentration and alertness.*

It’s not wonder it’s our best selling product. It’s hard for us to keep this in stock.

So I must tell you that right now we’re fully stock! So get a bottle now before we sell out again!
