How EpicBrain™ Works

What Does the Brain Actually Do?

Have you ever thought about what the brain actually does? Pun intended! This energy-hungry organ never really clocks off. It weighs just a few pounds, yet it burns through around 20 percent of your body’s daily fuel. Every thought, memory, and decision draws from that same reservoir. even when you’re resting. That’s commitment to the cause!

Introducing EpicBrain™

Here at RidgeCrest, we’re proud to introduce EpicBrain™, a formula created to support the brain’s natural energy processes and communication pathways, helping it stay fueled, connected, and resilient through modern-day demands.

Creatine: Fuel for Mental Energy

One of the ingredients we’re most excited about is creatine; we use a clean source of creatine monohydrate. Your body already makes creatine each day in the liver, kidneys, and pancreas, and you’ll also find it in protein-rich foods such as red meat and fish. On average, we produce about one to two grams daily, enough for normal function. But when the brain is under extra demand, whether from learning, multitasking, or stress, it appreciates a little more support. Creatine is made from three amino acids, arginine, glycine, and methionine….the same building blocks of protein. It’s often linked to the fitness world for helping muscles work hard over a period of time, but what’s often less known is how much the brain depends on the very same process!

How ATP Powers Your Brain

Your brain runs on a molecule called ATP, short for adenosine triphosphate, essentially the body’s energy currency. Each molecule of ATP has three phosphate groups. When the body breaks off one of those groups, it releases energy. That energy is what powers every cell in the body, including those that handle thought, focus, memory, and problem-solving. Once used, ATP becomes ADP (adenosine diphosphate), which is like a bank account that’s just been emptied, and nobody likes that feeling!

The brain is small but incredibly expensive to run, more like a Porsche than a commuter car! Although it’s only two percent of your body weight, it uses about a fifth of your resting energy. Every time you think, concentrate, or recall something, your brain spends ATP. When demands rise, it needs a quick way to refill that energy balance. That’s where creatine steps in. When you consume creatine, whether through food or supplementation, your body stores it as phosphocreatine, like a backup reserve. When ATP levels drop, phosphocreatine donates a phosphate group to ADP, recycling it back into ATP almost instantly. This process, called the creatine-phosphate shuttle, keeps the brain’s energy flowing smoothly when it’s working hard. If ATP is your brain’s checking account, creatine acts as the savings account that prevents overdrafts. Every time mental energy runs low, creatine quietly transfers “funds” to keep things balanced. The result is steady mental stamina.

Mushroom Complex: Lion’s Mane, Reishi, and Turkey Tail

EpicBrain also includes our mushroom complex, a trio of Lion’s Mane, Reishi, and Turkey Tail that brings balance from several directions. These aren’t the kind of mushrooms you toss in a stir-fry; they’ve been part of traditional wellness practices for centuries, and modern research continues to explore how they help the body adapt, restore, and stay balanced.

• Lion’s Mane: Supports the brain’s natural ability to form and maintain communication pathways, keeping thoughts connected and memories sharp.
  
  
• Reishi: An adaptogen that helps the body adjust to occasional stress and maintain calm.
  
  
• Turkey Tail: Supports a healthy gut-brain connection, indirectly promoting mental resilience through microbiome health.
  
  

EpicBrain™ Herbal Complex: Butterfly Pea, Gotu Kola, and Rosemary

That brings us to the EpicBrain™ Herbal Complex, which blends Butterfly Pea, Gotu Kola, and Rosemary Extract, three botanicals that add color, circulation, and calm.

• Butterfly Pea: Rich in anthocyanins, supports healthy neurons and smooth communication in the brain.
• Gotu Kola: Promotes mental clarity, focus, and recall during heavy mental demand.
• Rosemary Extract: Provides rosmarinic acid to neutralize oxidative stress and support healthy inflammatory balance.
  
  

Together, these herbs support the brain’s energy so focus feels clear and steady.

Built for Real Life

Of course, no supplement replaces good sleep, movement, or hydration, but EpicBrain fits neatly into a lifestyle that values all three. It’s built for real life: long workdays, study sessions, or simply to stay focused in a world that never stops moving.
