Proprietary Blends Explained: What Neuro Pulse Pro's 179.5 mg Blend Tells You
Quick answer
Neuro Pulse Pro's proprietary blend lists 11 herbs and plant ingredients that share 179.5 mg per capsule. The label gives the total, not each amount. Split evenly, that is about 16 mg each. The blend tells you what is inside, but not how much, so its effect on its own is hard to judge.
What is a proprietary blend?
A proprietary blend is a group of ingredients listed under one name with one total weight. The maker names each ingredient but does not have to show how much of each one is inside.
U.S. rules let companies do this to protect a recipe. The ingredients are supposed to be listed from most to least by weight. So the first name on the list is the largest share, but you still do not know the actual milligrams.
What the label must still show
- The blend name and its total weight per serving
- Every ingredient in the blend
- The plant part used for herbs, such as root or leaf

How much of each herb could be in one capsule?
If the 179.5 mg were split evenly, each ingredient would get about 16 mg. Since the list runs from largest to smallest, the first few likely get more and the last few less.
- 179.5 mgtotal blend per capsule
- 11ingredients sharing it
- ~16 mgaverage share if split evenly
For scale, look inside the same capsule. The whole blend weighs about three times the 60 mg of vitamin C. An average blend share of 16 mg is only about four times the 4 mg of vitamin B6. That does not make the blend useless, but it does mean each herb is present in a small amount.
How does the blend compare with the rest of Neuro Pulse Pro?
The vitamins and minerals carry the clear, stated doses. The blend is the part you cannot measure from the label.
| Part of the capsule | Amount shown | What you can judge |
|---|---|---|
| Vitamin B12 | 6 mcg (250% DV) | Exact dose versus daily need |
| Vitamin B6 | 4 mg (235.5% DV) | Exact dose versus the 100 mg upper limit |
| Biotin | 2,500 mcg (8,333.5% DV) | Exact dose and lab-test risk |
| Iron | 7.25 mg (40.5% DV) | Exact dose versus the 45 mg upper limit |
| Proprietary blend (11 items) | 179.5 mg total | Only which ingredients are in it |

Which blend ingredients deserve a closer look?
Fo-ti and the soy-based plant sterols deserve the most attention. The amounts are small, but safety does not depend only on dose.
Fo-ti (Polygonum multiflorum)
This traditional Chinese root has been linked to rare but serious liver injury (LiverTox, 2020). Stop and call a doctor if you notice yellow skin or eyes, dark urine or belly pain.
Saw palmetto
Generally well tolerated in studies, but not advised during pregnancy (NCCIH, 2025). The label already asks pregnant or nursing women to consult a physician.
Plant sterols from soy
These are the reason the label says "Contains: soy." Anyone with a soy allergy should skip the product.
Our side-effects page lists every caution in one place.
How do you read any proprietary blend label?
Use the same four checks on any supplement. They take a minute and tell you more than the front of the bottle.
Find the total
Look for the blend weight on the Supplement Facts panel. Small totals split many ways mean small doses.
Count the ingredients
Divide the total by the number of ingredients to get a rough average.
Note the order
The first ingredient is the largest. The last may be a trace amount.
Look for known risks
Check each herb against trusted sources, such as NIH fact sheets, before you buy.

Proprietary blends explained: common questions about Neuro Pulse Pro
Is a proprietary blend legal?
Yes. U.S. supplement labels may list a blend by its total weight with the ingredients named, without the amount of each one.
How much fo-ti does Neuro Pulse Pro contain?
The amount is not published. Fo-ti is one of 11 ingredients that together weigh 179.5 mg, so it is a small share of one capsule.
Why does Neuro Pulse Pro contain soy?
The blend has plant sterols from soybean. The label says "Contains: soy," so skip it if you have a soy allergy.
Are the vitamins in Neuro Pulse Pro part of the blend?
No. Each vitamin and mineral has its own amount and %DV on the panel. Only the 11 plant ingredients are grouped in the blend.
Can I ask the company for the blend amounts?
You can write through the contact page on getneuropulsepro.com. Our website inbox cannot answer it, because we are a stocking partner, not the maker.
