  • A supplement called InteliGEN that boasts the ability to help you enhance focus, boost intelligence and increase your productivity is apparently being sold online, although we could not verify the price, nor could we verify the ingredients of the product. The web site for the product, at inteligen.org, claims the product contains all-natural, pure and safe ingredients, and is produced in a state-of-the-art facility by an elite USA manufacturer. The product web site lists four ingredients in the supplement: bacopa monnieri, vinpocetine, ginkgo biloba and acetyl-l-carnitine. While each of these ingredients are listed by the scientific web site Examine.com as nootropic supplements (or cognitive enhancers), vinpocetine is not all-natural, it is manufactured: The web site for the supplement further claims it is carefully crafted with patent ingredients to provide essential nutrients to the brain. However we could find no patents registered in the United States for a product called InteliGEN. We were also unable to find such a product described by the medical database WebMD. And while the InteliGEN web site claims the supplement is clinically proven, we couldn't locate any evidence of clinical trials or testing on the product. In general, Examine.com urges caution with nootopic supplements: Overall the web site for InteliGEN seems vague and does not provide a label for the product so consumers can review a full list of ingredients. It allows potential customers to fill out their personal information in order to receive a free bottle. According to WebMD, all the ingredients it claims to contain have are considered possibly safe, or in the case of ginkgo biloba, likely safe. All have potential side effects, and none of the ingredients should be ingested during pregnancy. Overall we can't confirm the supplement does what it claims to do, as we can't even verify what its ingredients are. As with any supplement, consult a doctor before opting to take it. (en)
