New research shows that nooLVL by Nutrition21\u2014a patented complex of bonded arginine silicate with an additional dose of Inositol\u2014significantly increases cognitive performance in gamers after a single dose and within 15 minutes, suggesting that it could be a supplement of interest for esports performers.<\/p>\n

Performed at Texas A&M University, the double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover trial followed 26 male and female experienced gamers who were randomly assigned to consume 1,600 mg of nooLVL or 1,600 mg of a placebo (PLA). During testing sessions, participants completed stimulant sensitivity questionnaires and performed a variety of cognitive function tests. Fifteen minutes following ingestion, participants repeated these tests (Pre-Game) and then played their favorite video game for one\u00a0hour and repeated the battery of tests (Post-Game). Study subjects observed a 7- to 14-day washout period and then replicated the study with the alternative treatment.\u00a0Results showed that nooLVL enhanced short-term and working memory, reaction time, and concentration.<\/p>\n

The new data supports\u00a0prior research<\/a> on nooLVL as an esports supplement to improve cognitive benefits in competitive gamers, who rely on quick reactions, focus, memory, and fine motor skills to excel during competition, skills that are especially important when they are facing off against each other in high stakes tournaments and events.<\/p>\n

“This is our second study on nooLVL showing a range of cognitive performance benefits specifically in gamers. This is exciting for Nutrition21 since we were the first to study cognitive function in e-gamers,” said Danielle Greenberg, Ph.D.,\u00a0FACN, Vice President, Scientific Affairs, Nutrition21. “This latest research allows us to add new cognitive performance claims around short-term and working memory, as well as reinforce the reaction time claims from our first study.”<\/p>\n
