FAQ

Nootropics are natural or synthetic substances that support cognitive function, including focus, memory, mental clarity, and mood balance. At Mentis, we focus on natural nootropics using functional mushrooms and botanicals.

Our blends are made from high-quality, natural ingredients with a long history of traditional use. We do not use any preservatives, artificial colors or flavors, or fragrances. As with any supplement, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider if you’re pregnant, nursing, or taking medications.

Supporting long-term effectiveness

Functional mushrooms and botanicals are gentle by nature, but—like many nootropics—taking a short break each week helps reduce the potential for tolerance. This way, you continue to feel the benefits over time without needing higher amounts.

Preventing diminishing returns

Continuous daily use, even of natural nootropics, can sometimes lead to a “plateau effect.” Short breaks give your system a chance to reset, so you feel the benefits more clearly when you return.

Flexibility, not dependency

Taking two days off each week reinforces that this is a support tool, not something you have to depend on every single day to feel like yourself. It builds confidence that your baseline is strong, and the supplement simply enhances what’s already there.

Each weekly box includes 5 single-dose pouches. Take one full pouch per day for 5 days, then rest for 2 days before starting the next week. This cycle supports optimal results and balance.

Some people notice benefits like increased focus or energy within the first few days. For long-term support like stress regulation or cognitive resilience, consistency over several weeks is key.

Each Daily Dose contains the full recommended amount of active ingredients, so we don’t recommend taking more than one per day. However, it’s perfectly fine to rotate blends throughout your week—use Focus on days you need mental clarity, Energy when you're planning a workout or hike, and Relax on days you want to support calm and balance.

Only our ENERGY blend contains a natural caffeine source (Guarana, approx. 80mg caffeine). FOCUS and RELAX are completely caffeine-free.

The most common side effect is better focus and mental health! A large majority of users tolerate functional mushrooms very well. Very rare side effects may include digestive upset or mild headaches, especially if taken on an empty stomach.
