Brainbacs

The capsule for the day (Brainbacs Day) is intended to support focus and mental balance.¹ ² The most important ingredients are

L-TRYPTOPHAN: This essential amino acid is a direct precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which plays a central role in emotional balance as the "happiness hormone".

BACTERIAL STRAINS: The mixture of five different bacterial strains (Bifizen® and Bifidobacterium breve MCC1274) acts on the so-called gut-brain axis. As a large proportion of serotonin is produced in the gut, supporting the gut microbiome is also said to promote the well-being of the brain.

VITAMINS B6 and B12: These vitamins contribute to the normal function of the nervous system and to normal mental function. They also help to reduce tiredness and fatigue.¹ ²

Mode of action at night (Brainbacs Night).
The capsule for the night is aimed at relaxation and inner peace:

L-TRYPTOPHAN: L-tryptophan is also contained in the night capsule. Here it serves as a precursor for serotonin and melatonin, which is known as the sleep hormone and is said to promote mental calmness before going to bed.

ATA MG® (magnesium acetyltaurinate): This is a special, patented form of magnesium that has a high bioavailability and is said to cross the blood-brain barrier better than conventional magnesium compounds. Magnesium supports the nervous system, can improve stress resilience and also contributes to the reduction of fatigue.

Brainbacs take a holistic approach by supporting the connection between the gut and brain (gut-brain axis) via the day and night routine.

Yes, long-term use makes sense - especially when it comes to sustainably supporting the nervous system and mental well-being.¹ ² ³
Micronutrients such as vitamins B6 and B12 have been scientifically proven to contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system and mental function.¹ ² As these vitamins are water-soluble and cannot be permanently stored in the body, a continuous supply is crucial to meet long-term requirements.

In addition, the bacterial strains it contains can have a positive effect on emotional balance via the so-called gut-brain axis. Regular intake helps to stabilize the balance of the microbiome and strengthen the body's ability to cope with stress in the long term. Studies indicate that the positive effects of probiotic preparations do not develop immediately, but rather through constant use over several weeks.

Brainbacs can be combined with all mybacs® products without hesitation & a combination is considered sensible.

The combination with medication should be carefully considered. It is not recommended to take it at the same time as other preparations containing high amounts of L-tryptophan or 5-HTP, as this can lead to excessive stimulation of the serotonin balance. Caution should also be exercised when taking antidepressants or other psychotropic drugs at the same time, especially those that interfere with the serotonergic metabolism (e.g. SSRIs, MAO inhibitors). In such cases, undesirable interactions such as the so-called serotonergic syndrome may occur in rare cases.

If you are taking appropriate medication or are unsure, we strongly recommend that you discuss the combination with your doctor in advance.

From a professional point of view, this product should not be taken during pregnancy, breastfeeding or in the case of a known intolerance. The reason for this is that this product may contain ingredients that cannot be considered safe, especially during pregnancy, due to their hormonal, labor-promoting or stimulating effects.
