I will always remember the irony of asking this

About a week ago, I saw an article about a memory/cognition enhancing supplement that had been available OTC at one time but then removed from sale. It has now been returned to the market. The article included a lengthy review by a reporter who had personally tested the drug. I think it may help someone I know (I'll let her neurologist be the judge), but I don't remember the name of the supplement. Help?

Hey there, my mother has Alzheimer's and I'm losing my memory so I certainly understand the urge to be helpful. Still and unfortunately, there's no supplement that's been convincingly shown to help. For example, here's a recent unsuccessful study of a nutritional supplement to slow progress of Alzheimer's.

Response by poster: Hey! NBCNews just re-tweeted its story about the drug. Thanks, folks!

Best answer: bryon, that’s a fake website. NBCNews.io is not NBC and it looks to me like Brain 360 is an overpriced caffeine + herbal supplements pill.
