'''Noggin''' is an American [[television channel]] and [[streaming service]] that was launched on February 2, 1999. It was originally a joint venture between [[Nickelodeon]] and [[Children's Television Workshop]] (now [[Sesame Workshop]]). The channel was designed to provide educational and entertaining content for preschoolers and young children.
'''Noggin''' is a [[dietary supplement]] developed by the [[Neurohacker Collective]], designed to support [[cognitive function]] and [[brain health]]. It is formulated with a blend of [[nootropics]], [[vitamins]], and [[herbal extracts]] that are intended to enhance [[mental clarity]], [[focus]], and [[memory]].


==History==
== Ingredients ==
Noggin was conceived as a way to offer educational programming that would appeal to children and their parents. The channel initially featured a mix of original programming and reruns of classic children's shows. Over time, Noggin evolved to focus more on preschool-aged children, with content designed to support early childhood development.
Noggin contains a variety of ingredients that are commonly used in [[nootropic]] supplements. These include:
* [[Bacopa monnieri]] - An [[herbal extract]] known for its potential to improve [[memory]] and [[cognitive function]].
* [[L-Theanine]] - An [[amino acid]] found in [[tea]] leaves, often used to promote [[relaxation]] without drowsiness.
* [[Rhodiola rosea]] - An [[adaptogen]] that may help the body adapt to [[stress]] and improve [[mental performance]].
* [[Vitamin B6]] - A [[vitamin]] that plays a role in [[neurotransmitter]] synthesis and [[brain health]].
* [[Vitamin B12]] - Essential for [[nerve function]] and the production of [[DNA]].


In 2002, Noggin introduced a programming block called "The N," which targeted a teenage audience. This block eventually became its own channel, known as [[TeenNick]].
== Mechanism of Action ==
The ingredients in Noggin are selected for their potential synergistic effects on [[brain function]]. For example, [[Bacopa monnieri]] is believed to enhance [[synaptic communication]], while [[L-Theanine]] may increase [[alpha wave]] activity in the brain, promoting a state of [[relaxed alertness]]. [[Rhodiola rosea]] is thought to modulate the release of [[neurotransmitters]] like [[serotonin]] and [[dopamine]], which can affect [[mood]] and [[cognitive function]].


In 2009, Noggin was rebranded as Nick Jr., aligning it more closely with Nickelodeon's existing preschool brand. However, the Noggin brand was revived in 2015 as a subscription-based streaming service, offering a library of educational content for young children.
== Usage and Dosage ==
Noggin is typically taken as a [[dietary supplement]], with the recommended dosage being one to two capsules per day, preferably with a meal. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult with a [[healthcare professional]] before starting any new supplement regimen, especially for individuals with pre-existing [[medical conditions]] or those taking [[medications]].


==Programming==
