Quick answer
Neuro Recall prints amounts for B12, folate, magnesium and chromium, all below or apart from memory trial doses. Ten more ingredients share a 635 mg blend with no single amounts. Bacopa, L-theanine and lutein have small early studies, ginkgo's large trial found no benefit, and four ingredients have no human memory studies. No study of the formula exists.
Neuro Recall lists 14 ingredients on its Supplement Facts panel. Four come with exact amounts. Ten share one 635 mg blend. This post puts every line next to what human studies used and found, and shows where the label leaves you guessing.
The panel lists a serving of 2 capsules and 30 servings per bottle. It gives amounts for folate, vitamin B12, magnesium and chromium, then one total for the WMG-NVT Exclusive Blend.
Folate 600 mcg DFE (as 320 mcg folic acid), vitamin B12 240 mcg, magnesium 250 mg as oxide, and chromium 120 mcg as picolinate. Each has a percent Daily Value.
Ginkgo, bacopa, L-theanine, alpha-GPC and six more share 635 mg. The split is not printed.

Only B12 and folic acid can be set beside memory trial doses, because only they have printed amounts and trials to compare. B12 is 240 mcg against about 500 to 1,000 mcg in trials; folic acid is 320 mcg against 400 to 2,500 mcg.
Both sit below the doses used in trials. That matters less than it sounds, because a Cochrane review of eight trials found no consistent evidence that folic acid, with or without B12, improves thinking in unselected older people (Cochrane, Folic acid with or without B12 for cognition). These vitamins help when someone is low, which a blood test shows.
The 10,000% Daily Value for B12 looks alarming, but no upper limit is set for B12 because of its low risk of harm (NIH ODS, Vitamin B12 (health professional)). The 320 mcg of folic acid is under the 1,000 mcg upper limit (NIH ODS, Folate (health professional)).
Magnesium oxide is less completely absorbed than citrate or chloride forms (NIH ODS, Magnesium (health professional)), and the few randomized trials on memory are not enough to draw conclusions (Adv Nutr 2024, Chen et al., Magnesium and cognitive health). Chromium has one small 12-week trial in 26 older adults: no better learning rate, though less interference on some memory tasks (Nutr Neurosci 2010, Krikorian et al., Chromium and cognition).
Four blend ingredients have human research worth a closer look. Turn each sheet over for the dose that was studied, what the trial found, and what to watch for.
Leaf extract
Ginkgo biloba
The best-studied memory herb. A large trial at 240 mg a day found no less decline; it can raise bleeding risk.
Ginkgo biloba: the research
Whole-plant extract
Bacopa monnieri
An Ayurvedic herb. Small trials at 300 to 450 mg a day for 12 weeks or more found modest gains in attention and recall.
Bacopa monnieri: the research
Amino acid
L-theanine
An amino acid from tea. Short-term trials at 50 to 400 mg found small gains in attention and reaction time.
L-theanine: the research
Leaf extract
Camellia sinensis
Tea catechins such as EGCG. Memory data mostly involve tea with caffeine; extracts are a known, rare cause of liver injury.
Green tea extract: the research
Bacopa has the most consistent results of the group. A meta-analysis of nine studies with 518 people found its clearest effect was on attention speed (J Ethnopharmacol 2014, Bacopa meta-analysis of RCTs). More detail is on the bacopa monnieri page.
Mostly weak. Three ingredients have small, early positive studies, one has a large negative trial, two help only people who are low, and four have no human memory evidence that we could find.
| Ingredient | Amount per 2 capsules | Best human evidence for memory | Our summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin B12 | 240 mcg | Helps when someone is low | Only if deficient |
| Folate | 600 mcg DFE | No consistent benefit in older adults | Only if deficient |
| Magnesium (oxide) | 250 mg | Too few trials to conclude | Unclear |
| Chromium (picolinate) | 120 mcg | One trial in 26 older adults | Very thin |
| Cinnamon bark | Not published | No human memory studies (Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation, Cinnamon) | None |
| Ginkgo biloba | Not published | Large trial: no less decline | Negative |
| Bilberry fruit | Not published | Not clearly shown to help any condition (NCCIH, Bilberry: Usefulness and Safety) | None |
| Bacopa monnieri | Not published | Modest gains in small trials | Early, modest |
| Green tea extract | Not published | Mostly tea with caffeine, not extract | Weak |
| Berberine HCl | Not published | No human memory studies (Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation, Berberine) | None |
| L-theanine | Not published | Short-term attention gains | Early, small |
| Alpha lipoic acid | Not published | No usable dementia trials (Cochrane, Alpha lipoic acid for dementia) | None |
| Alpha-GPC | Not published | Only studied in dementia | Not in healthy people |
| Lutein and zeaxanthin | Not published | Brain scans, not memory scores | Early, small |
Berberine is the one to flag for medicine users: it can raise blood levels of cyclosporin and slow liver enzymes that many drugs rely on (Memorial Sloan Kettering, Berberine (About Herbs)). All 14 are covered on the Neuro Recall ingredients page.
No. Even if the blend held nothing else, it could not fit the trial doses of three of its ingredients at once.
| Ingredient | Daily dose in the main trials | Running total |
|---|---|---|
| Ginkgo biloba | 240 mg | 240 mg |
| Bacopa monnieri | 300 mg | 540 mg |
| L-theanine | 200 mg | 740 mg |
| Alpha-GPC | 1,200 mg | 1,940 mg |
By the third row the total is already past 635 mg, with seven more ingredients still to fit. An even split would be about 63.5 mg each, a fraction of most trial doses.
That is why ingredient studies cannot be read as results for Neuro Recall. Researchers note that label information cannot show how much of any one blend ingredient a person takes (J Nutr, Perspectives on proprietary blends).
It means buying Neuro Recall is a choice made on its ingredient list, not on proof. You get printed B12, folate, magnesium and chromium, plus small unknown amounts of herbs that range from modestly studied to unstudied for memory.
If you want a studied dose of bacopa or L-theanine, this label cannot confirm it. If you might be low in B12, a blood test tells you more than any capsule.
For the bigger question of whether any memory supplement works, read do memory supplements work? To judge Neuro Recall against other brands, use our buyer's checklist.
The label does not say. Ginkgo is one of ten ingredients sharing a 635 mg blend, and the largest ginkgo trial used 240 mg a day without slowing decline.
No one can tell from the label. Bacopa trials used 300 to 450 mg a day for 12 weeks or more, and the bacopa amount in the 635 mg blend is not printed.
Bacopa, with small trials showing modest gains in attention speed and recall. L-theanine and lutein have smaller, shorter or indirect results.
No upper limit has been set for B12 because of its low risk of harm. A high percent DV is also not a benefit for people whose levels are normal.
It cannot be. Alpha-GPC trials used 1,200 mg a day, nearly twice the whole blend, and they were in people who already had dementia.
No memory studies in people support either one. Both are studied mainly for blood sugar, and the results there are weak or unclear.
Magnesium oxide is absorbed less completely than citrate, chloride, lactate or aspartate forms. The memory trials for magnesium of any form are too few to draw conclusions.
