Overview

Garden of Life Dr. Formulated Brain Health combines probiotics targeting the gut-brain axis with cognitive-supporting botanicals. The formula includes clinically studied Lactobacillus strains that produce neurotransmitter precursors, organic ashwagandha for stress reduction and cognitive clarity, and organic whole-food blueberry for anthocyanin antioxidant protection. This product reflects the emerging science of the microbiome-brain connection — specific probiotic strains can influence mood, memory, and cognitive function through the vagus nerve and neurotransmitter production.
