“Cordyceps is by far one of the best nootropics I've ever tried... I can sleep for 8 hours straight and feel like a million bucks.”
“cordyceps does too but with stronger cognitive effects, both eventually wreck my sleep though.”
“The first time I took this stuff, I was wired out of my mind. Now I don't feel any change at all.”
“I noticed I started lasting significantly longer once I started taking 500mgs of 1:1 cordyceps everyday, and once I switched to the 10:1s from nootropics depot, I end up lasting even longer.”
“The rest that I've tried hasn't helped me at all or even made me feel anything, good or bad.”
