Some of our BRAINSUPREME community told us they can’t get enough. For them we created The Black Stack™! We really believe our other products are all anyone needs, but for those that just can’t get enough, The Black Stack™ is your ticket. Just strap in for the ride!
Add one Black Stack capsule to Genius, Feel Good, or Brains + Balls for a powerful boost. Or take one or more of The Black Stack by itself “as is” for those special days out hiking in nature, contemplation at the beach, or relaxation and reflection wherever you find it. The Black Stack contains 2.5x the proprietary BRAINSUPREME functional mushroom blend as our other products. But beware, this may be a bit much for new friends just getting to know BRAINSUPREME’s products.
Supporting Research behind our Black Stack™ Product
BRAINSUPREME Mushroom Blend: The Black Stack™ has 2.5 times the amount of proprietary BRAINSUPREME mushroom blend as our other products. We grow our own organic and biodynamic mushrooms that make up our proprietary mushroom blend. The proverbial secret sauce – not much more to be said other than no other products offer it, and it’s the shit! Next Level Shit!
Because some folks report slight stomach discomfort when consuming higher potency mushroom blends or larger amounts, we throw a little Turmeric and Ginger into The Black Stack to comfort the belly. The other great news is, research also suggests Turmeric and Ginger can benefit mood, cognition and more. Overall, this is a powerful stack – The Black Stack™!
Fermented Turmeric: Fermenting turmeric makes curcumin, the key beneficial component in turmeric, a lot more powerful than turmeric powder or raw, non-fermented turmeric. So, let’s take a look at the benefits of curcumin as it relates to our brain and cognitive health. Here is supporting research from the National Institutes of Health, National Library of Medicine
- Curcumin Alters Neural Plasticity and Viability of Intact Hippocampal Circuits. In this study we demonstrated the anti-inflammatory and antidepressant properties of curcumin. We also observed the neuroprotective effects of curcumin in a LTD model. Based on these findings, we believe that curcumin might be a potential candidate for anxiolytic or antidepressant therapy.
- Curcumin Protects Against Chronic Stress-induced Dysregulation of Neuroplasticity. These findings reveal some of the molecular neuroinflammation pathways associated with depression and suggest new avenues of investigation for the development of potential antidepressant therapies in the treatment of inflammation-related neuronal deterioration in this disorder.
- “Scientists show that curcumin — the primary metabolite found in turmeric — improves learning and memory while increasing neuroplasticity and reducing inflammation in the brain”. Curcumin treatment leads to changes indicative of reduced inflammation and oxidative stress. Overall, since inflammation and oxidative stress are significant contributors to aging, this data suggests that curcumin’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects could improve learning and memory by enhancing neuroplasticity in aged mice.
Ginger: Ginger (Zingiber officinale) has been used worldwide for many centuries in cooking and for treatment of several diseases. The main pharmacological properties of ginger include anti-inflammatory, antihyperglycemic, antiarthritic, antiemetic and neuroprotective actions. Recent studies demonstrated that ginger significantly enhances cognitive function in various cognitive disorders as well as in healthy brain.
- Ginger Extract Improves Cognitive Function of Middle-Aged Healthy Women. The present study clearly demonstrates that Zingiber officinale may enhance both the attention and cognitive processing in middle-aged women.
- Ginger improves cognitive function via NGF-induced ERK/CREB activation in the hippocampus of the mouse. We found that GE administration significantly improved the ability of mice to recognize novel objects, indicating improvements in learning and memory.
- Ginger and Testosterone. “To date, the mainstream of research linking dietary ginger to testosterone has revealed that ginger or ginger extracts have an impact on testosterone as testosterone production was enhanced upon ginger supplementation. The mechanisms through which ginger enhances testosterone production are mainly by increasing LH production, increasing the level of cholesterol in testes, reducing oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in the testes, enhancing the activity of certain antioxidant enzymes, normalizing blood glucose, enhancing nitric oxide production and increasing blood flow in Leydig cells, increasing testicular weight, and recycling testosterone receptors.”
- A systematic review on the effect of Ginger (Zingiber officinale) on improvement of biological and fertility indices of sperm in laboratory animals, poultry and humans. “Ginger improves semen quality and increases fertility of sperm by disrupting the production of free radicals, dissolving oxidative chain reactions, reducing oxidative stress and altering the levels of gonadotropin hormones (LH, FSH) and sex hormones (such as testosterone)”
Crystal Vitamin C: Vitamin C may help to protect the brain by reducing oxidative stress in the brain. Reducing oxidative stress in the brain may have several benefits including improving brain function, reducing risk of neurodegenerative diseases and supporting overall brain health. Here is supporting research from the National Institutes of Health, National Library of Medicine
- Vitamin C Status and Cognitive Function: A Systematic Review. Vitamin C plays a role in neuronal differentiation, maturation, myelin formation and modulation of the cholinergic, catecholinergic, and glutaminergic systems. This review evaluates the link between vitamin C status and cognitive performance, in both cognitively intact and impaired individuals. In summary, studies demonstrated higher mean vitamin C concentrations in the cognitively intact groups of participants compared to cognitively impaired groups.
