Behind the Formulation of Nootropics: HVMN Performance Supplements || Special
10/24/18 • 44 min
Here at HVMN, we take a systems engineering approach to human performance. This ethos, rooted in following the latest science and research, has played a role in how we develop our products.
Introducing HVMN Performance Supplements.
A culmination of over a year and a half of research and development across the company, HVMN Performance Supplements marks an evolution of our existing nootropics line complete with improved formulations and new ingredients. In this special episode, Geoffrey Woo (CEO) and Dr. Brianna Stubbs (Research Lead) dive deep into the research, thought-process, and nuances behind formulating nootropics from the ground up.
In this discussion, you’ll discover:
- What separates HVMN Performance Supplements from other nootropic products and why we strongly believe in carefully crafted, simple stacks vs. a hodgepodge of ingredients
- The literature we explored when choosing new ingredients and why we specifically searched for research that studied young adults
- The specific updates to the formulations of Rise, Kado, Sprint, & Yawn
