Mental alertness refers to mental energy and combating fatigue. If your need is related to memory, check out our memory supplements; if it’s about sustaining focus on a task, look into our concentration supplements.
A vitality regimen is best taken in the morning over the course of a few weeks, rather than continuously. Reserve caffeinated formulas (guarana, ginseng + caffeine) for the first part of the day to ensure a good night’s sleep. Ginseng is not recommended for those with hormonal disorders or during pregnancy.
