Market insights on cognitive health
According to Innova Insights, supplements dominate the market, making up 65% of product launches with cognitive health claims. Botanicals and herbal supplements lead as the most popular subcategory for products claiming to support brain health. Interestingly, claims for cognitive health are often paired with benefits related to energy and stamina, reflecting the desire for comprehensive wellness solutions.
This trend is further supported by data from FMCG Gurus, which reveals that 53% of global consumers are interested in cognitive wellness products, even if they do not currently experience specific health issues. Brain and emotional well-being is now seen as equally important as physical health.
The rise of natural nootropics
The nootropic category is experiencing rapid growth, with a 14% CAGR increase in the supplements market since 2019. Nootropics are substances—natural, semisynthetic, or synthetic—that enhance cognition by improving functions like memory, attention, and executive function. As consumer interest in natural, non-stimulant alternatives to synthetic enhancers grows, plant-based nootropics, such as herbal extracts and adaptogens (e.g., ginseng), are gaining traction.
Nowadays, information is moving faster than ever. We are constantly faced with an uninterrupted flow of data which we have to translate, understand and memorize. Our cognitive functions, and likely more high-level cognitive processes, are endlessly recruited and challenged. This segment thus caters to a wide demographic, from students and business professionals to athletes and seniors, all seeking to enhance their cognitive performance.
Social media trends and discussions further emphasize the importance of brain health, with influencers, medical professionals, and users actively engaging in conversations around nootropic supplements.

Cognivia™: A unique organic formulation
Sage has been used for centuries for its numerous health benefits, and is widely recognized in the literature for its effectiveness in supporting cognitive performance. Leveraging its expertise in sourcing, innovative formulations and health solutions, Nexira has developed Cognivia™, a clean label, safe and non-stimulant nootropic formulated with a unique technology.
Cognivia™ is the first organic ingredient combining garden sage leaf extract with encapsulated Spanish sage essential oil.
Cognivia™ is backed by comprehensive and robust proprietary substantiation.
Robust scientific substantiation
Proprietary in vivo data have demonstrated a beneficial synergistic effect on memory, both with single-dose and prolonged use. Additionally, an in vitro study has shed light on Cognivia™’s mechanism of action, specifically its involvement in the CamKII pathway, which plays a key role in neuronal functions related to learning and memory.
A 28-day, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study on Cognivia™ has been conducted with Northumbria University (UK) on 94 healthy active volunteers. Results, assessed by the well-known COMPASS battery of cognitive tests, have revealed:
- An overall improvement in working memory function across three tasks: short-term memory, attention and data manipulation.
- Increased performance over time with continued consumption.
- Effectiveness demonstrated in both single-dose and prolonged use across all three tasks.
A second randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study on Cognivia™, conducted by INSERM with 17 physically active participants, confirmed its effectiveness in line with previous trials.
Cognivia™ has been shown to enhance cognitive function during intense physical activity and could lead to higher performance in attention-demanding sports. It also improves reaction time in healthy individuals.
In conclusion, Cognivia™ is a natural nootropic with proving efficacy in supporting working memory, tailored for multiple consumer targets.
