BRAINMD Dr Amen Calm My Brain - 90 Vegan Capsules

Does the marketing hold up?

FDA recall appears in this brand's history. An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.

Is it the real thing?Barcode matches outside records
Trouble on record?Brand history — not this product

“Couldn’t verify” means we looked and found no public proof — not a mark against the product. Most supplement claims cannot be independently verified by anyone, so grey is the normal state of this industry.

FDA recall appears in this brand's history

An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.

Evidence and sources

This recall is not about the product on this page. BRAINMD recalled a different product on September 9, 2021. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “Brain MD - Brain & Memory Power Boost Supports Healthy Brain and Memory Performance 120 capsules - Dietary…”

CheckedIs the label honest?

Every ingredient shows its amount · 3 ingredients listed.

Every ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.

Evidence and sources

The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.

Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked finding
What remains open 2
  • We have not found a public label filing for this exact product.
  • Barcode checksum is valid; no independent product record was found.

These are evidence gaps, not strikes against the product.

Research behind the findings

Dose and research context

We could not match an amount on this product to a studied range for the same ingredient, so these links are ingredient background rather than a measurement of this product.

Background reading

What the research says about these amounts

Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.

The panel lists 100 mg of magnesium per serving. Studies we found used 200 mg–420 mg a day, so this sits below that range.

0studied 200 mg–420 mg

Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.

The panel lists 600 mg of ashwagandha per serving. Studies we found used 250 mg–600 mg a day, so this sits inside that range.

0studied 250 mg–600 mg

Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
