SF180 Brain Booster Supplement Scam

5 November 2020

The dietary supplement, SF 180 Brain Pills, claims to be a proven dietary formula to boost blood circulation and increase oxygen levels sent to the brain. SF 180 further claims to boost brain power, to help people think faster, focus better, reduce brain fog, enhance memory, and more. But it’s just another scam.

SF 180 does cite a study to back up their claims. The study states that ginkgo biloba, an ingredient in SF 180, will increase blood flow and hence oxygen saturation to brain cells. An ad in eturbonews.com informs consumers that it takes a period of time from 2 to 3 months to possibly see the maximum brain enhancement benefit of taking SF 180's smart pill daily as directed on the label.

However, for maximum brain function, 120-240 mg of ginkgo biloba should be taken 1-4 hours before desired cognitive performance. For adults suffering short term memory decline, 40-120 mg should be taken three times daily. When taken as directed, SF 180 only provides 100 mg of ginkgo biloba daily.

The etrubonews.com ad states no negative side effects have been seen. This statement is followed by, “should you have any suspicions, click on any button or picture on this page to see if there is a free trial.” The repeated offers of a free trial on SF 180's website are reminiscent of Amazin Brain.

SF180 Brain Supplement Reviews

The Better Business Bureau (BBB) does not have information for the vendor SF 180 Brain. However, it does have a listing for Natural Cleanse Plus SF 180, which happens to have the same Florida address as the vendor Amazin Brain. The Natural Cleanse Plus SF 180 vendor shows a pattern of complaints of continued billing without customer knowledge.

A customer review on Amazon informs the public how SF 180 operates their 30-day free trial. The customer pays for the shipping of their free trial with a bank card. If the customer does not request a free extension within fourteen days after ordering at SF 180's toll-free number, SF 180 will automatically enroll the user in a subscription and charge the card accordingly.

The most troubling thing about SF180 is its similarity to other supplement scams that Thrivous has reviewed in the past. They use similar websites, with the same fake reviews. And they employ similar manipulative and deceptive marketing and sales tactics. Check out our review of Apollo Mental Clarity for several examples.

SF180 Brain Formula Ingredients

Along with ginkgo biloba, SF 180 brain formula contains:

  • B Vitamins (6.6 mg Vitamin B6, 266.66 mcg Folic Acid, 20 mcg Vitamin B12) – Deficiencies can lead to cognitive impairment.
  • Bacopa Monnieri (300 mg) – Bacopa is used as a memory enhancer and to alleviate stress and anxiety.
  • Eleutherococcus Senticosus (150 mg) – There’s some evidence for a minor benefit to the body's natural ability to handle stress.
  • GABA (66.6 mg) – GABA regulates downers in the brain, but doesn’t have much effect when taken orally.
  • Alpha Lipoic Acid (33.4 mg) – This is far below a standard dose of 300-600 mg, which can support brain health.

Amazon sells SF 180 Brain for $36.40 per bottle containing 60 capsules. Slimfit180.com sells the same 60 capsules for $72.00.
