VitaliTea boosts BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) by 143%. NOTHING else has this effect. It helps with learning, memory and higher thinking. HELLO SMART ONE! It increases nerve healing, making it a great gift for someone who suffered from a concussion.

The coffee berry we use is by NeuroFactor™.
NeuroFactor™ is coffee berry extract derived from whole fruit concentrate (WCFC). NeuroFactor™ has the ability to increase brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) is unprecedented. BDNF is found in the brain, as well as in a variety of tissues and cells, and readily crosses the blood-brain barrier. Levels of BDNF are reduced with aging, stress, lack of exercise and traumatic brain injury. This can affect regulation of metabolism, therefore disrupting appetite, sleep, and brain function. BDNF plays an important role in neuron growth and brain plasticity. Taking NeuroFactor™ boosts levels of BDNF during the first 60 minutes after treatment by 143%. ¹ WCFC also has at least two hours of sustained effects post ingestion.²

Blood levels of BDNF in patients given placebo, 50 mg chlorogenic acid, or 100 mg NeuroFactor™. (Chlorogenic acid is found in coffee beans and NeuroFactor™ .) The figure above shows that it is the NeuroFactor™ that is responsible for dramatic increase of BDNF .
NeuroFactor™ is the most powerful natural antioxidant due to its high levels of polyphenols and phenolic acids. Polyphenols neutralize free radicals (decreasing oxidative stress) by donating electrons or hydrogen atoms. This process is the predominant contributor to antioxidant activities of NeuroFactor™. The antioxidant activity of NeuroFactor™ is up to 25 fold higher than in coffee fruit powder³.

When comparing chlorogenic acid levels in different types of coffee fruit samples (CFE-1 multistep extraction of ,NeuroFactor™ CFE-2 single step extraction of, CFP-1 air dried whole coffee fruit powder, and CFP-2 freeze-dried powder raw coffee fruits) NeuroFactor™ had the most amounts of CGA.
Research
The 1st study, published in The British Journal of Nutrition in 2012 (doi: 10.1017/S0007114512005338), assessed the modulatory effect of coffee fruit extract on plasma levels of BDNF:
Abstract
The present single dose study was performed to assess the effect of whole coffee fruit concentrate powder (WCFC), green coffee caffeine powder (N677), grape seed extract powder (N31) and green coffee bean extract powder (N625) on blood levels of brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF). Randomly assorted groups of fasted subjects consumed a single, 100mg dose of each material. Plasma samples were collected at time zero(T0) and at 30 min intervals afterwards, up to 120min. A total of two control groups were included: subjects treated with silica dioxide (as placebo) or with no treatment. The collected data revealed that treatments with N31 and N677 increased levels of plasma BDNF by about 31% under these experimental conditions, whereas treatment with Whole Coffee Fruit Concentrate (WCFC) increased it by 143% (n10), compared with baseline. These results indicate that WCFC could be used for modulation of BDNF-dependent health conditions. However, larger clinical studies are needed to support this possibility.
The 2nd study, published in The Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences in 2013, delves into the stimulatory effect of whole coffee fruit extract (NeuroFactor™) on plasma levels of total and exosomal BDNF in healthy subjects:
Abstract
A pilot study by Reyes previously showed that ingestion of single dose of whole coffee fruit concentrate (WCFC) powder increased blood levels of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) during the first 60 minutes after ingestion. In the present report, we performed a single dose, placebo-controlled, within-subject study to confirm and further investigate this effect. Twenty healthy subjects with ages ranging from 25 to 35 participated in this study. All fasted and resting subjects received placebo on Day 1, WCFC on Day 2, and a cup of freshly brewed coffee on Day 3. Treatment with WCFC resulted in a statistically significant increase in plasma BDNF compared to placebo (p = 0.0073) or coffee (p = 0.0219) during first 60 minutes.
