#Brain and Nervous System: Brain-Boosting Beverages

Many people are looking for simple ways to boost their focus, memory, and productivity. That’s why nootropics, or “smart drugs,” are growing rapidly in popularity.

Nootropics are a class of natural or synthetic compounds that may improve your brain function. While hundreds of nootropic supplements are available, several beverages contain natural nootropic compounds.

What’s more, other drinks boast ingredients, such as antioxidants or probiotics, that may support your brain function.

Here are 12 juices and drinks that may boost your brain health.

1. Coffee

2. Green tea

3. Kombucha

4. Orange juice

5. Blueberry juice

6. Beetroot juice

7. Sage

8. Gingko Biloba

9. Ashwagandha

10. Ginseng

11. Rhodiola

12. Kefir

Drinking nootropic beverages may seem like an easy way to support brain health.

However, although some of these drinks may help boost brain function, high-quality evidence is lacking to support drinking any of these beverages to improve focus, performance, or memory.

Regardless, these drinks offer other health benefits and may be worth trying to see whether they work for you.
