• What medical research has been done on Q96™?

  Q96™ is the most studied micronutrient in the world. It has been independently studied in 3 countries, has 20 medical journal publications with 14 being peer-reviewed. A phenomenal .85 effect size was reported.

• Does Q96™ contain any drugs?

  No, it contains only vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants.

• How could vitamins and minerals work where drugs have failed?

  Many people end up using Q96™ because drugs have not worked for them. Research has shown that people who have mental illnesses seem to need more of certain vitamins and trace minerals. Q96™ works by giving the brain an optimized balance of vitamins and trace minerals on a regular basis. The hypothesis is that the nutrients go to the root cause of imbalances rather than just treating the symptoms.

• Is Q96™ safe to use?

  The U.S. Institute of Medicine and Health Canada has published detailed information on safe levels of vitamins and minerals. Based on this information, the most serious risk of taking Q96™ is minor, temporary gastrointestinal upset that could occur in a few people.

• What’s the difference between Q96™ and a regular multivitamin?

  Q96™ contains a broad spectrum of vitamins and trace minerals that go through a rigorous four step process to makes them more easily utilized by the body. The nutrients are micronized and chelated so the body can digest them. They are then balanced in optimum ratios to facilitate absorption and high enough doses to be effective.

• Why are the ratios of nutrients so important?

  Deficiency of one nutrient can make you unable to absorb other nutrients properly, which leads to multiple, inter-related deficiencies. These deficiencies seem to disrupt the brain chemical function in people with disorders such as bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and anxiety.

• How do you know it’s not just a placebo effect?

  Numerous studies on the placebo effect have shown that a placebo effect only lasts a short time. Then the effect disappears and symptoms return. Q96™ does not “stop working.” Even the first Q96™ users who started in 1996 remain symptom-free and drug-free.

• Are there any side effects?

  Q96™ produces very few side effects in users and usually just include minor stomach upset as your body gets used to the formulation. People who are transitioning from medications may experience side effects from withdrawal.

• How do I know Q96 is for me?

  Q96 is a foundational brain supplement that provides your central nervous system with a balanced supply of micronutrients for optimal brain function. Everyone can benefit from daily use of Q96.

• Does it work for everyone?

  Q96™ has a very high success rate, but nothing promises 100% success for treating mental illness.

• How soon will I see result’s?

  No two people have exactly the same experience with starting Q96. Factors such as age, general health, medication use and lifestyle can all affect the speed of recovery. While some may have a more difficult time at the beginning than others, we have seen even very heavily medicated, sick people become well over time.

  Transitioning From Psychiatric Medications

• Do medications interfere with Q96?

  Yes, especially psychiatric medications. As your brain function improves, you can become increasingly over-medicated. Psychiatric medications should be gradually tapered off under the supervision of a doctor when using Q96.

• What should I expect when transitioning from medications?

  As you build up the key nutrient balance in your body, medications can become an issue. Making the transition from psychiatric medications to Q96 must be done with proper supervision. Please DO NOT adjust medications on your own as medication withdrawal symptoms can be quite severe. After the transition period, most of our users find that they enjoy the benefits of mental health without th side effects that they experienced on drugs.

• I’m tired of drugs. Can’t I just stop taking them now and switch to Q96?

  In addition to your doctor and the Q96 Support team, we highly recommended that you enlist the help of a support person. This could be a counselor, therapist, family member or good friend who is willing to commit to helping you through the transition process, help monitor your symptoms and stay in regular contact with you and Q96 Support.

• Healthcare

  • Is Q96 covered by health insurance?

    Health care and insurance plans have changed drastically in recent months.  Some plans may cover the costs when prescribed by a physician.
