FAQs

We manufacture our products in a FDA registered, GMP certified facility in Salt Lake City, Utah. Also, our ingredients are sourced through a consistent network of suppliers to ensure that quality and potency through each production run stays consistent. Each material that enters the facility must go through a series of tests to ensure purity and potency, heavy metals and microbials all match the Certificate of Analysis provided by our suppliers. Upon completion of production, we hire an independent 3rd party to do additional testing and ensure all proper label claims are met as well as a final quality control evaluation.

Currently we don't offer free samples, although we do offer something even better! We recognize that certain supplements are not for everyone, therefore we offer a 30 day money back guarantee. Meaning you can try elevate for a month risk free!

Except for ageless, our products have full ingredient and dosage transparency. You can find ageless's exact formula on our Ingredients page. Each ingredient selected has been the subject of many clinical studies.

We understand transparency is crucial when choosing a cognitive supplement. We have published our ingredient dosages in the past and our new elevate formula in 2025 has a fully transparent label. In other words, no proprietary blends. Each dosage is based on peer-reviewed research showing cognitive benefits. Previously, we used proprietary blends to protect our unique formulation ratios, but based on customer feedback demanding transparency, we've made the decision to fully disclose all dosages. You can review each ingredient on our ingredients page.

We manufacture our products in FDA-registered facilities in Utah and Florida that maintain pharmaceutical-grade quality with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) certification, FDA registration with regular inspections, third-party auditing, and NSF standards compliance.

Nootropics are a cognitive technology that includes some foods & supplements. The term was conceived from the Romanian psychologist and chemist, Corneliu Giurgea in 1972. Giurgea identified the main features of the nootropic profile to consist of the following:

1. Enhancement of learning acquisition – Support brain learning and memory*

2. Support healthy brain function*

3. Facilitation of inter hemispheric transfer of information – Support brain processing power*

4. Increased tonic, cortico-subcortical 'control' – Support brain focus and attention*

5. Absence of unwanted pharmacological effects*

In short, Nootropics support brain health, cognitive function, and overall well-being. Every year, more research is released on the effects of Nootropics but we are still at the infant stages of learning all the amazing benefits of Nootropics!*

Take within the first hour of waking up on an empty stomach or with a light meal

Every person is different, but most customers report feeling positive effects immediately (within 20-30 minutes). That said, clinical research on ingredients like Bacopa and CDP Choline suggest that people won't get the full benefits until they have been taking these ingredients consistently for over 30 days.*

Yes! At Avantera, we've worked with nutritionists and food scientists to select only the highest quality ingredients that have been clinically tested. We have a detailed description of each ingredient on our website here.

In working with Nutritionists and Food scientists, Elevate is comprised of 9 premium ingredients that support:
1. energy and focus*
2. working memory*
3. gut health*
4. healthy stress levels*
You can see more about each hand-picked ingredient here.

Elevate is intended to be taken everyday. In fact, clinical studies on ingredients like lion's mane, cdp choline and bacopa suggest the effects become more substantial when taken consistently over longer periods.* You can see more about each hand-picked ingredient here.

Nootropics have been shown to support healthy brain function when taken consistently.* Elevate contains ingredients that can help the whole spectrum of mental well-being.* L-Theanine specifically has properties that work counter to anxiety symptoms.* You can see more about each hand-picked ingredient here.

Elevate is designed to provide steady energy and focus without jitters.* L-Theanine is one of the primary ingredients in elevate that works to balance any of the "uppy" feeling that nootropics can have on some individuals.* You can see more about each hand-picked ingredient here.

The vast majority of our customers do not experience any negative side effects, but every person is different. We recommend taking Elevate 30 minutes before your first meal with a glass of water. If you experience a headache or uneasy stomach, we recommend trying to take Elevate with a light meal. In clinical trials, none of our ingredients show long-term side effects. If you want to read further on individual effects based on our customers' experiences, please visit this page.

Elevate is $49.95, or $1.78 per serving, when you sign up for a monthly subscription. This carries monthly savings of over 20% compared to the one-time purchase price of $64.95, or $2.17 per serving. Elevate’s combination of ingredients and price make it the best nootropic you can buy. Be sure to check out the website announcement banner for any promotions we're running for your first order!

Elevate contains 95mg of natural caffeine from green tea extract per serving - that's about the same caffeine in a standard 8oz cup of coffee (80-95mg). Our formula includes 200mg of L-Theanine, which works synergistically with caffeine to promote calm alertness without anxiety. This combination creates what users describe as "clean energy" - focused alertness without jitters.* Unlike energy drinks or coffee alone, Elevate's adaptogenic ingredients support sustained cognitive function for hours without an afternoon crash.* Many customers enjoy Elevate with their morning coffee, though you may find you need less caffeine overall. If you're sensitive to caffeine, start with one capsule instead of the full two-capsule serving.

Most customers report feeling positive effects within 20-30 minutes including increased mental clarity, reduced brain fog, enhanced mood, and sustained energy without jitters.* Short-term benefits (1-2 weeks) include improved working memory, better stress management, and more consistent energy levels.* Clinical research on key ingredients like Bacopa Monnieri and CDP Choline shows that full cognitive benefits develop with consistent use over 30+ days, including memory improvements and enhanced learning capacity.* If you don't feel initial effects, try taking Elevate on an empty stomach or with a light meal - some individuals require a "loading phase" with effects becoming more noticeable after 7-14 days. Our 30-day money-back guarantee gives you time to properly assess the benefits.

Yes, Elevate's formulation is built on extensive clinical research. We worked with doctors, nutritionists, and food scientists to select only ingredients with substantial scientific backing. Each ingredient has multiple clinical studies: Bacopa Monnieri (20+ studies on memory enhancement), L-Theanine + Caffeine (15+ studies on synergistic focus effects), CDP Choline (12+ studies supporting memory and learning), Lion's Mane (10+ studies on neuroplasticity), and Turmeric (100+ studies on anti-inflammatory effects). Our dosages align with those used in successful clinical trials.* Every batch undergoes third-party testing for ingredient purity, potency, heavy metals, and microbiological safety. View our third-party test results on our quality page. All ingredients are Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA.

Always consult your primary care physician, clinical pharmacist, or qualified nutritionist for personalized advice on supplement interactions. Elevate is generally safe to combine with most supplements including Omega-3s, Vitamin D, magnesium, probiotics, and B-vitamins.

Adaptogens are a select group of herbs (and some mushrooms) that support the body's natural ability to deal with stress.* They are called adaptogens because of their unique ability to “adapt” their function according to the specific needs of the body. This may be physical, chemical or biological needs.

Take two capsules two hours before going to sleep.

Everyone is different, however customers report feeling more energized when they wake up, not drowsy. Unwind is not intended to be a strong sleep supplement. Instead, we're focused on long term health benefits like supporting healthy stress levels, immune function, memory and deeper sleep. All very important when it comes to long term brain health. Better REM sleep is just another one of those benefits (get ready to have some vivid dreams!).*

Elevate gummies are decaffeinated. Don’t worry about losing sleep with these. If you are looking for a caffeine option, check out our elevate capsules which contain 95mg of caffeine from green tea extract.

Elevate gummies have 0g of sugar. Each serving size contains 6g of sugar alcohols. Sugar alcohols are often used as lower calorie sweeteners in sugar-free items. They do not contain ethanol, and they’re thus safe for people who prefer to avoid alcohol. Sugar alcohols are found naturally in some fruits and vegetables, such as plums, strawberries, and avocado.

We ultimately chose to use this in our gummies to give them a desirable taste without using added sugars as most gummies on the market choose. Sugar alcohols also affect blood sugar levels less significantly, making them a suitable alternative for people with diabetes.

Nootropics, also known as smart drugs, are substances people use to improve focus, memory, and mental clarity. They range from prescription medications to natural supplements.*

Elevate is a blend of nootropics that works differently. It supports your brain's acetylcholine pathway, the system responsible for calm, clear thinking. So you get sustained focus without the jitters, crashes, or intensity of stimulants. Real clarity, no chaos.*

Elevate gummies are designed to support and enhance cognitive functions such as memory, focus, creativity, and overall mental clarity.* Additionally, elevate gummies can help support stress management.*

Our goal in formulating elevate gummies is for people to experience not only cognitive improvements but also an enhanced sense of well-being.*

You should take elevate within the first hour of waking up on an empty stomach or with a light meal.

Every person is different, but most customers report feeling positive effects immediately (within 20-30 minutes) after taking elevate gummies. That said, clinical research on ingredients like Bacopa and Rhodiola suggest that people won't get the full benefits until they have been taking these ingredients consistently for over 30 days.*

Every person is different, but most customers report feeling positive effects on their energy levels within hours. However, it is important to note that the ingredients are meant to protect your cells and slow down the aging process; therefore, many of the benefits will be felt over time.
