With there being so many vendors to choose from when shopping for Nootropics or other compounds online, there are only a few big vendors out there.
Absorb health is certainly one of them as they have been around for a pretty long time in this space and have a large selection of not only Nootropics but other things like skin care products, oils and so on.
But we’re not here to talk about the other things but really just their Nootropics and Absorb Health as a vendor itself.
So is Absorb health reliable and should you shop with them?
Let’s find out with my unbiased Absorb Health review and what you can expect from this popular Nootropics vendor.
Brief History On Absorb Health
Surprisingly, Absorb Health has been around since 2011 and was founded by Josh Fulton when his wife became ill and he wanted to bring better supplements into the market at an affordable price since he found that some supplements we’re doing very well for his wife.
Who knew that he would one day own one of the biggest Nootropic vendors currently in the market that also has one of the biggest selections I have seen to this day.
Transparency
Some time ago there was a big debate as to whether Absorb Health was properly testing their products for purity and so on which lead to a lot of people putting the company down.
The owner then told everyone to contact him and he would answer any questions they had in regards to these claims as he knew that he was getting their products tested and that people were blowing things out of proportion.
In case you were wondering, Absorb health provides certificate of analysis on most if not all of their products on their website and every product I have ordered came with one.
I cannot speak for every item on their store because I have not ordered every single product from them.
So for at least most products you can view their 3rd party testing results on their website when checking out one of their Nootropics.
Customer support
I would have to say that the customer support for Absorb Health is slightly above average as there are other vendors who will respond faster to any questions you may have but at least they do eventually respond unlike some other vendors in the industry.
I’m thinking that this company may just be understaffed in this area as they have a big business but there could be some things they can improve on in this area.
Shipping and returns
Absorb Health has said that they have a maximum of one day handling time which means that if you order say on Monday by a certain time, it will ship within one business day so usually that Tuesday.
This is very convenient, especially as other companies such as Amazon are stepping their game up as well.
Absorb Health only ships using USPS First Class but they offer free shipping on all U.S. orders above $75.
So if you live in the United States you can expect your package to arrive within 3 business days and If you live outside of the U.S. it will generally be within 2 weeks.
Not bad.
As for Absorb Health’s refund policy they state that you are eligible for a full refund if you are not satisfied with your order with 90 days.
This is 3 times as much time given as the vast majority of Nootropic vendors out there.
You just have to return the products and pay for your own return shipping though.
However if you live internationally then you cannot get a refund as shipping outside of the United States is usually more expensive than the products themselves.
Product Quality
As mentioned before, Absorb Health does use 3rd party testing to ensure that their products are high quality and as pure as possible.
So far I have not had any bunk products delivered to my house and I would say their stuff is on par for what you can expect from a Nootropics Vendor.
Plus they are one of the few vendors that still carry my favorite compound, Phenibut.
Product Line and Pricing
Below you will find a small list of products and their price per capsule.
Keep in mind that this is not a full list but rather just a few products I have chosen to show.
Adrafinil $1.10 per capsule
Noopept $0.20 per capsule
Sulbutiamine $0.23 per capsule
Oxiracetam $0.38 per capsule
Phenibut $0.20 per capsule
Bacopa Monnieri $0.12 per capsule
Rhodiola Rosea Extract $0.13 per capsule
Overall I would say these are super affordable as it is but they become even more affordable when buying packs such as Absorb Health’s Nootropic All-Star Pack or their Mood enhancer pack.

What’s the verdict?
Overall I would say Absorb Health gets the green light from me as I have had no issues with the products themselves or their price points.
Sure they could improve on some things but if you just want to know if you should buy from Absorb Health then the answer from me is yes they are completely fine to use in my opinion.
