Ultimately, researcher\u2019s concluded that it was most likely a placebo effect leading to the increased scores, but still, coffee cause that placebo effect, so coffee makes you better at math. Simple as that. But there\u2019s a new coffee on the market that claims it will actually make you smarter. Created by an actual doctor, <a href=\"https:\/\/getneurocoffee.com\/pages\/neuro-coffee-f-a-q\">Neuro Coffee<\/a> claims that just one cup will \u201cboost proteins in your brain that are linked to mental acuity, learning, and general wellbeing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themanual.com\/food-and-drink\/neuro-coffee-brain-supplement-brew\/\">The Manual<\/a>, it isn\u2019t the coffee in Neuro Coffee that is said to boost brainpower but a \u201cpatented antioxidant complex\u201d called NeuroFactor added to it. And from whence is that patented antioxidant complex derived, you ask? Why, from cascara! The company claims that cascara consumption increases a protein called Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), and is called \u201cMiracle-Gro for the brain.\u201d Neuro Coffee\u2019s website states that BDNF helps support neuron growth and repair, learning, mood and wellbeing, and metabolic health.<\/p>\n<p>Sounds great, right? But does it sound $45 for a 12-ounce bag of pre-ground coffee great? Because that\u2019s how much it would cost to buy a bag, though if you sign up for a subscription it\u2019ll only be $30 a bag. But according to the website\u2019s math (represented in the infographic below), Neuro Coffee is actually a steal. Based on their calculations, you can save 79%. All you have to do is assume you\u2019ll pay \u201c$30 &#8211; $40\u201d instead of the $45 sticker price, compare making coffee at home (which is always cheaper) to &#8220;coffee shop coffee,&#8221; and believe that making coffee at home costs $0.00.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-135928\" src=\"http:\/\/sprudge.com\/file\/2018\/08\/Neuro-1170x647.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1170\" height=\"647\" \/>Maybe you&#8217;re curious, maybe you&#8217;re dubious, but if your interest is piqued, now&#8217;s the time to\u00a0try it yourself. According to The Manual, Neuro Coffee &#8220;offers a six-month 100 percent money back guarantee,&#8221; and will even buy you four bags of your old coffee should you choose to go back. Assuming Neuro does not change my life forever and I&#8217;m able to take advantage of the offer, my four bags will be the most expensive Gesha I can possibly find, preferably ordered from Finland or Greece or somewhere with especially high shipping rates, because who&#8217;s smart now?<\/p>\n<p><em><a class=\"addbackground\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dallas_coffee\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Zac Cadwalader<\/a>\u00a0is the news editor at Sprudge Media Network and a staff writer based in Dallas.\u00a0<a class=\"addbackground\" href=\"http:\/\/sprudge.com\/author\/zac-cadwalader\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more Zac Cadwalader\u00a0on Sprudge<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/sprudge.com\/this-coffee-says-it-will-make-you-s-m-r-t-135927.html\">This Coffee Says It Will Make You S-M-R-T<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/sprudge.com\">Sprudge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Coffee News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, we reported on how even the smell of coffee has the ability to increase one\u2019s mathematic acuity.
