Article is bullshite.

Pretty common supplement advertisement for a bullshite worthless product.

Best bet on the "brain enhancers" are DMAE and acetylcholine and tyrosine combos. Been around since the mid-late 90s and still about all their is in that area.

I don't know anything about the supplement itself, but a quick search shows it contains Huperzine A, which was/is being studied for Alzheimer's disease. You mention DMAE and acetylcholine. Well, Huperzine A is an AChE inhibitor that crosses the BBB. In theory, it would have an activity profile similar to donepezil (Aricept) that is the standard for Alzheimer's therapy. However, I cannot attest to effective dosing, how much the supplement provides, bioavailability, or metabolism. "If" it works, the effects will not be immediate like other stimulant based drugs. It will take weeks to months to see a full effect.
