InSight Natural™ contains: Niacin, Vitamin B-6, Folate, and a “proprietary base” of amino acids and cocoa bean extract.

InSight Natural™ is based on what it advertises as synergistic combination of “B Vitamins with amino acids, botanical co-factors, pure extracts of cocoa bean and other natural ingredients.” This combination, suggests the brand’s website, contributes to a relaxed and positive state of mind.

The formula also advertises to offer antioxidant protection, providing 175% of the adult daily requirement for B-6, 135% of the daily requirement of Folic Acid, and 187% of the daily requirement of Vitamin B-12. The website also refers to a 2003 study that favorably compares the antioxidant powers of cocoa as superior to those found in red wine, green tea and black tea.

InSight Natural™ positions itself as a mood supporter, with ingredients that will contribute to the “positive, proactive attitude” necessary for a healthy mental balance. From a purely nutritional perspective, this does appear to have some validity: “We are what we eat,” and if people are deficient in certain nutrients, their overall health and state of mind alike can be negatively impacted. While no nutritional supplement alone will satisfy an individual’s dietary requirements, it can provide excellent backup to a good eating plan and, as such, can play a role in providing overall health benefits for both body and mind.

No other clarification as to how the synergistic balance of ingredients in InSight Natural™ contributed to “positive, proactive attitude” and mental balance was provided. People who are looking for sound vitamin and antioxidant protection might be candidates for InSight Natural™, but individuals seeking specific mind-calming and mood-improving benefits should opt for supplements with targeted ingredients and mechanisms to that end. The mineral form of Lithium, a safe and effective alternative to prescription mood stabilizers, can deliver significant calming and mood-boosting effects when combined with an Oratate-based delivery system.

• Does not contain Ephedra

A sound nutritional backup plan is always a good idea, but consumers interested in natural supplements that deliver specific and documented mood-balancing benefits should opt for formulas that address these issues.

As discussed, supplements featuring the mineral form of Lithium combined with an Orotate mineral-carrying system have documented mental-health benefits, and may be a preferred option for individuals looking to calm their minds and to achieve a more positive day-to-day outlook on life.
