No proprietary blend, no combined "total" hiding six unknown amounts. Here's every ingredient in VapoCept®, listed by name, with what it's actually doing and how much research backs it up.
L-Arginine
The body's primary precursor to nitric oxide, a molecule that relaxes and widens blood vessels — including cerebral ones — to help more oxygen and nutrients reach brain tissue.
L-Arginine AKG 2:1 Extract
Arginine bound to alpha-ketoglutarate for slower, extended absorption, designed to sustain the circulatory effect across the day instead of delivering it all at once.
L-Citrulline HCl
Recycles back into arginine in the body, creating a continuous nitric-oxide cycle rather than a single, depleting dose.
L-Citrulline Malate
Citrulline paired with malate, which plays a role in cellular energy production and may help clear the metabolic byproducts linked to that heavy, foggy feeling later in the day.
Niacin (Vitamin B3)
A direct building block for NAD+, the coenzyme that drives cellular energy production in every cell, brain cells included. Also supports microcirculation, helping the rest of the formula actually reach the tissue it's meant to act on.
Beta-Alanine
Converts into carnosine once absorbed — an antioxidant dipeptide that naturally accumulates in brain and muscle tissue and helps neutralize reactive oxygen species.

Why We Don't Use Vague Botanical Names
Plenty of products marketed as an herbal brain supplement or plant based brain supplement lean on unfamiliar plant extracts specifically because unfamiliar names are harder to fact-check quickly. We built this page around the opposite instinct — amino acids and B-vitamins with decades of basic-science research behind them, each named individually with a real dose attached. That's what we think genuine brain health nutrition should look like, and it's a fair standard to hold any product to, including the vitamins and supplements for brain health you might be comparing this against.
