Explore the data—the results speak for themselves.
TONGKAT ALI
These four graphs clearly demonstrate that Nootropics Depot's Tongkat Ali products lead the market in both potency and value, delivering the highest levels of eurycomanone per dose and per dollar while outperforming all competitors in cost efficiency and ingredient standardization. Eurycomanone is the key bioactive compound in Tongkat Ali responsible for many of its researched benefits, including support for healthy testosterone levels, energy, and overall vitality. Side-by-side lab testing reveals that ND’s formulas provide several times more active compounds for each dollar spent and maintain ingredient quality that rivals simply cannot match.
CISTANCHE TUBULOSA
Lab-verified testing shows Nootropics Depot’s Cistanche tubulosa extracts deliver vastly higher levels of key bioactives like verbascoside and echinacoside per dose, by up to 13 times more than the next competitor, while also offering these ingredients at significantly lower costs per milligram. These bioactive compounds are crucial because they have been researched for supporting immune function, cognitive health, antioxidant defenses, and overall vitality, contributing to the core health benefits associated with Cistanche supplementation. Our full spectrum and specialty extracts don’t just lead in potency and value; they set a new market standard for efficacy, transparency, and comprehensive ingredient profiles.
TRIBULUS & DIOSCOREA
Nootropics Depot's Tribulus terrestris and Dioscorea nipponica extracts are unrivaled for protodioscin content, with clinically detectable levels far exceeding every other brand on the market. Protodioscin is the key bioactive saponin in these botanicals, researched for supporting healthy testosterone levels, promoting athletic performance, enhancing libido, and contributing to cardiovascular and urogenital health, making it fundamental to the purported benefits of authentic Tribulus and Dioscorea extracts. In independent lab testing, ND products delivered up to 166 mg of protodioscin per capsule, while competitor offerings showed virtually no measurable amount, setting a new benchmark for authenticity, potency, and trust in botanical standardization.
ERINAMAX
Independent lab results confirm that Nootropics Depot’s Erinamax is the only Lion’s Mane supplement on the market standardized to erinacine A, delivering over 32 times more erinacine A per capsule than the nearest competitor. Erinacine A is a rare neuroactive compound in Lion’s Mane mycelium that has been shown to promote nerve growth factor synthesis, support neurogenesis, protect against neurodegeneration, and enhance cognitive performance and memory in research studies, making it crucial for delivering meaningful brain health benefits. Erinamax stands apart as the sole product providing a guaranteed, clinically meaningful dose in every capsule, demonstrating ND’s leadership in bioactive standardization and real ingredient transparency.
BETA-ECDYSTERONE
Nootropics Depot’s Beta-Ecdysterone 50% tablets deliver the highest potency on the market, with independent lab testing confirming 52.46% β-ecdysterone per capsule, 1.37 times more than the next leading brand. This plant-derived steroid enhances muscle protein synthesis through selective estrogen receptor beta activation, promoting lean muscle growth, bone health, and improved recovery without androgenic side effects. Supported by rigorous quality control and clinical research, Beta-Ecdysterone offers a safe, effective, and transparent solution for those seeking powerful, plant-based performance enhancement.
ECKLONIA CAVA
Nootropics Depot’s Ecklonia cava capsules deliver the only supplement on the market with clinically measurable dieckol, verified at 2.05 mg per capsule, while all other brands show zero detectable amounts. Developed over six years of intensive R&D, this product required building a dedicated supply chain in Korea and forging direct partnerships to source and standardize genuine Ecklonia cava under strict environmental protections. Dieckol, a powerful marine polyphenol, provides neuroprotective, stress-reducing, sleep-enhancing, and metabolic benefits, making ND’s formula the new benchmark for authenticity, potency, and ingredient transparency in Ecklonia cava supplementation.
SAFFRON
Nootropics Depot’s High Potency Saffron Extract delivers the highest standardized levels of crocins (2.3 mg) and safranal (0.8 mg) per capsule, providing 1.97 times more crocins and 1.18 times more safranal than the next leading competitor, based on rigorous third-party lab testing. These bioactive compounds are directly linked to saffron’s well-studied benefits for mood elevation, cognitive support, neuroprotection, and antioxidant activity, setting a new benchmark for authenticity, potency, and clinical relevance in the saffron supplement space.
