Brainzyme® FOCUS™ supplements are very safe - they are food supplements made from plant-powered ingredients and contain no pharmaceuticals or any other synthetic ingredients or additives. All ingredients are classified as 'food' under UK Department of Health regulations and GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) under US FDA regulations.
If pregnant or breastfeeding, we recommend starting with 1 capsule of our mildest formula, Brainzyme® FOCUS ORIGINAL™ 60 minutes after food. Once you feel comfortable, you can try Brainzyme® FOCUS PRO™ or ELITE™ following the same method.
As with any other supplement, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advisable to check with your doctor first beforehand. This is because one capsule of Brainzyme® FOCUS™ contains 40 mg of caffeine from natural sources, equivalent to 1/3 cup of filter coffee. According to UK Healthcare recommendations, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should limit the amount of caffeine you have to 200 mg a day.
Pregnant and breastfeeding women can take up to 4 capsules per day based on the UK Healthcare recommendations above. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
