You know that moment when everything just clicks?
The edit flows. The ideas connect. You’re in it - fully locked in.
That’s what nootropics are made for.
Nootropics (pronounced “new-tro-picks”) are ingredients that help your brain perform at its best - improving focus, memory, and mental clarity. Think of them as creative fuel for your brain: science-backed compounds that sharpen your mind without frying your nerves.
At Sharp Shot, we’ve combined high-quality coffee with a targeted blend of natural nootropics — built for long creative days, tight deadlines, and moments when your brain just needs to fire sharper.
So, What Exactly Are Nootropics?
In plain English:
They’re substances that support brain performance - helping you stay alert, focused, and mentally resilient.
Some boost energy and neurotransmitter activity (how your brain sends messages). Others protect your brain cells from stress and fatigue. The goal isn’t a buzz - it’s clarity.
You can think of nootropics as:
- The mental focus of caffeine,
- The stress resistance of meditation, and
- The memory support of long-term training -
all rolled into one smart formula.
The Sharp Shot Formula: What Each Ingredient Does
We didn’t throw in trendy ingredients for the sake of it.
Each one in Sharp Shot serves a specific purpose - backed by real science and chosen with creatives in mind.
🧬 Cognizin® Citicoline - The Focus Engine
The science:
Cognizin® is a patented form of citicoline, one of the most studied nootropics for brain health. It increases levels of acetylcholine - a neurotransmitter essential for focus, learning, and mental clarity. It also helps your brain produce energy more efficiently.
How it helps:
More clarity, faster recall, and better focus during long projects.
For creatives:
Ever hit that mid-afternoon brain fog while editing or writing? Cognizin keeps your thoughts snappy and your attention locked in — no crash, just clean mental energy.
🌿 Bacopa Monnieri Extract - The Memory Booster
The science:
Used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries, Bacopa improves memory, supports neuron communication, and reduces anxiety. Studies show it helps with retention and recall, especially under pressure.
How it helps:
Strengthens memory formation, reduces mental fatigue, and supports long-term learning.
For creatives:
Perfect for remembering shot lists, design ideas, or that random spark of inspiration you had at 2 AM - without relying on 10 sticky notes.
⚡ Panax Ginseng Leaf Extract (20%) - The Energy Stabiliser
The science:
Panax Ginseng is an adaptogen - it helps your body adapt to stress. It’s been shown to improve cognitive performance, reaction time, and mood while reducing fatigue.
How it helps:
Balanced, sustained mental energy and a calmer, more focused mindset.
For creatives:
When your to-do list is chaos and the deadline’s closing in, Ginseng keeps you steady — no overwhelm, no crash.
💡 Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) - The Brain’s Battery Charger
The science:
Thiamine helps convert nutrients into usable energy for your brain and nerves. It’s crucial for mental clarity and neurotransmitter function.
How it helps:
Supports consistent mental energy — especially when you’re burning through calories and caffeine.
For creatives:
Thiamine keeps your brain fuelled through long edit sessions or full-day shoots. It’s the “always-on” power supply behind your focus.
🔋 Vitamin B7 (Biotin) - The Metabolic Support
The science:
Biotin supports metabolism and helps convert food into energy, while also maintaining healthy hair, skin, and nails - small, but essential.
How it helps:
Improves overall energy efficiency and supports nerve function.
For creatives:
It’s not the flashy ingredient - but it keeps your body running smoothly behind the scenes so your brain can do the creative heavy lifting.
🧠 Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin) - The Neural Connector
The science:
B12 supports nerve health and helps form red blood cells, delivering oxygen to your brain. Methylcobalamin is the most active, bioavailable form - meaning your body can actually use it efficiently.
How it helps:
Improves focus, mood, and long-term brain health.
For creatives:
When you’ve been running on little sleep and too much caffeine, B12 keeps your mind clear, your mood stable, and your energy real - not artificial.
Why Creatives Love Nootropics
Creativity is mentally demanding.
Whether you’re shooting, editing, designing, composing, or coding - your brain is your most valuable tool.
But long hours, stress, and constant context-switching wear it down.
That’s where nootropics come in - not to replace rest, food, or sleep, but to help your brain fire at full capacity when it matters most.
You don’t need to be a scientist to feel the difference - just a creative who knows when the zone hits.
The Bottom Line
Sharp Shot was built for people who create.
People who chase that flow state. Who stay up too late finishing the perfect cut. Who push for that one clean take.
Nootropics won’t make you creative - but they’ll help you stay sharp enough to bring your best ideas to life.
