Neuroplex
SP Standard Process
Overview
Neuroplex combines essential B vitamins and minerals at generally effective doses with a large proprietary blend of animal glandular extracts and a botanical. While the B vitamins and minerals are well-established for neurological support, the efficacy contribution of the proprietary blend is highly questionable due to undisclosed individual ingredient dosages and a lack of scientific validation for most of its components in oral human supplementation. The claim of 'whole food supplements' might be misleading regarding the scientific backing for all components' effectiveness.
The Good
Provides well-dosed essential B vitamins (Thiamine, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6) vital for nervous system function and energy metabolism.
Includes key minerals (Iron, Zinc) in bioavailable forms and at beneficial amounts for overall health, including neurological support.
Zinc content is at a therapeutically relevant dose (16mg) which can support immune function and cognitive health.
The Bad
Heavy reliance on a proprietary blend (575 mg) means individual doses of specific glandular and botanical extracts are undisclosed, making efficacy and safety assessments difficult.
Many ingredients in the proprietary blend (e.g., Bovine Orchic Cytosol Extract, Porcine Brain PMG Extract, Bovine Hypothalamus, Bovine Anterior Pituitary) lack robust, independent scientific evidence for efficacy or specific benefits when orally supplemented in humans.
Potential safety concerns with numerous animal glandular extracts; while animal-derived, the specific processing and long-term human impacts, especially for brain and pituitary extracts, are not clearly established by high-quality research.
