Cellucor has surprised us a lot this year, pumping out all sorts of flavors as well as new competitors for its core category of pre-workout with revamped C4 Original, C4 Ultimate, and the all-new hybrid supplements C4 Ultimate Strength and C4 Ultimate Shred. The brand also returned to its roots of sorts and hit a couple of other major sports nutrition areas, including weight loss with Super Shred and stimulantless Super Thermo, the testosterone booster Max Test, and now we have Super Brain.
Super Brain is an all-new, advanced nootropic supplement, which is not a category we’ve seen Cellucor compete in specifically; the closest might be the highly effective beverage C4 Smart Energy and the discontinued spin-off of C4 originally exclusive to Bodybuilding.com in C4 Neuro. Super Brain is indeed an all-out nootropic packed full of ingredients for the purpose of improving and enhancing focus, clarity, and cognition, and it is backed by a star-studded list of quality components, many of them branded.
Driving the all-out nootropic experience in Cellucor’s Super Brain is acetyl-l-carnitine at half a gram a serving, huperzine at 100mcg, B vitamins, 10mg of PQQ, then you have a whole host of premium ingredients. Alongside those entries mentioned, the brand has packed in a studied 65mg of Brainberry, 1.5mg of MitoPrime ergothioneine, 200mg of Cereboost ginseng, and the increasingly popular as well as reliably effective Cognizin citicoline at its full dose of 250mg in a two capsule serving.
Not only has Cellucor filled Super Brain with a host of premium and proven ingredients, including Brainberry and Cognizin — also found in C4 Smart Energy Drink — but it’s also kept the formula free of caffeine. This makes the supplement much more versatile, as you can throw down a serving with an energy drink or any stimulant supplement at your preferred caffeine level. The price of Super Brain is pretty solid and low at $34.99 from GNC, which makes sense as it has 15 full servings a bottle.
