As its name implies, Dr Whitaker Mind & Memory Essentials contains a host of ingredients that are said to support your memory and improve your mental sharpness and cognitive function. In addition, it is also designed to improve your state of mind and provide overall support for your long-term brain health.
The manufacturer also claims because it uses specific, bio-available forms of its active ingredients – particularly turmeric (Curcuma longa) and curcumin, the tablets work quickly and effectively.

Dr Whitaker Mind & Memory Essentials Review – Conclusion
There have been thousands of studies into the efficacy of turmeric and curcumin over the past 15 years, but the manufacturer fails to provide links to any. Instead, it references its own study. This was a study to evaluate the effects of its own curcumin formulation, Longvida, on the cognitive function, performance, and mood of 60 adults aged between 60 and 84. The participants were tested on the first day of the trial, and again 30 days later. According to a summary of the results published on the Dr Whittaker website, the group taking tablets containing the active ingredient scored higher on all tests than those who received the placebo. However, we were unable to find precise details of the tests results.
According to the manufacturer, the standard operating procedures adhered to in the manufacture of Dr Whitaker Mind & Memory Essentials tablets “meet or exceed” those set by the FDA’s Good Manufacturing Practices. We will have to take their word for it, as we were not able to find any official manufacturing quality certification.
