What people actually say

“even the nootropics that some communities swear by did nothing for me (some that come to mind - racetams, tyrosine/NALT, NAC, methylated B vitamins...”

“I took 200 ug per day for two months and noticed a difference in energy. Now I take 100ug per day and occasionally an extra 200ug.”

“I have seen unbelievable results stacking Lithium Orotate with the following: Methylated B-Vitamins, High dose Omega-3 (from algae), Sodium Butyrate, Tocotrienols, Vit D3K2, Mag Glycinate, Iodine&Selenium, Boron.”

“I also noticed a big boost after introducing Vinpocetine and Huperzine A.”

“I noticed that I was feeling a bit melancholy after using it for a few weeks.”

“I tried Vinpocetine and gingko biloba for the same effect, but with cero results.”

“I've started taking vinpocetine and seen good results...Vinpocetine pretty reliably gives me a headache.”

“what I take atm is caffeine, yohimbine, huperzine a, and taurine. Those items for me give me more than enough energy.”

“Yohimbine certainly gets my blood flowing, but can also increase my anxiety and heart rate to unbearable levels.”

“a LOT of people find the side effects too unpleasant. I’m pretty Stim tolerant, but the first few times I tried it, it was definitely a jittery energy and that whole skin crawling sensation.”

“It gets rid of any fear I would normally have. Something different happens when I take Yohimbine...I baffled to know that the common experience people have with this is feeling anxious and jittery.”

“Supplementing Fish or especially Krill Oils has always worked better to avoid choline headaches, for me, anyway.”

“I noticed a slight brain fog and a decrease in my cognitive ability.”

“A few months ago I added Krill Oil and D3 and it's been much improved.”

“I tried: ...krill oil...they didn't help. Some would give me a little bit of relief from anxiety, others might lift the brain fog for a few days, but none of the ones I tried did anything meaningful”

“amino acids L carnitine and glutamine made a difference in my skin.”

“L-carnitine helps your body burn long chain fatty acids... I take 2 pills in the morning and 2 before a cardio workout to get an endurance boost.”

“L carnitine and alpha lipoic acid allow a bit of the gaba in your system to cross the BBB...It kills the anxiety and puts me in a good mood 90% of the time.”

“L-carnitine works like clock work for me when it comes to depression.”

“hcg.. although it may raise estrogen too much. worked great for me, strength increases, amazing libido, lost some fat.”

“When I stopped TRT and went to HCG mono therapy 1500iu EOD kept my total test at 1500.”

“I used to take HCG... I stopped and feel much better (less e2)”

“I got euphoria once from HCG once (after this it stopped working).”

“taurine (2–3 g daily) and alcohol are the only substances that have seemed to calm my body’s stress and anxiety.”

“If I drink, even one beer or glass or wine but certainly if I have two or three, I sleep terribly. I'm up all night. My heart rate is elevated and I get jittery.”

“I can’t sleep without it and don’t sleep with it. Every day ends up plan to drink and hide it if I can.”

“Alcohol is limited to weekends (at which point I sleep through the night, but sleep quality is garbage).”

“St. John's Wort, Passion Flower, Hops, and Skullcap. My sleep improved with those.”

“Some things didn't work at all for me: melatonin (tried 1mg-10mg), passionflower.”

“Currently I'm using 10g of Passionflower/day. Awesome herb. It's better than Ashwagandha and Rhodiola rosea combined.”

“I've noticed this from many different supplements, including ashwagandha, bacopa, passion flower, even alcohol & phenibut.”

“Copper was a big savior for me, the difference is huge and started right after starting to focus on it. My deep sleep has only gone up and up.”

“I took zinc and copper high dosed and it did not raise my levels. Months now in.”

“started supplementing copper, which I believe can be seen on my face since my wrinkles are considerably reduced in size (copper is important for collagen synthesis)”

“started taking 2mg of copper, and my ADHD improved a lot... Copper is not particularly dangerous.”

“Within a week after taking it consistently, I always feel noticeably calmer, get better sleep, better muscle recovery and have smoother more elastic skin.”

“I'm puzzled how you can suggest elemental calcium supplementation for reversing atherosclerosis as it has been linked to increased risk.”

“Once I started getting my daily amount of calcium I felt way better. My mind and body genuinely relaxed, assuming the cal:mag balance is what did this.”

“1200mg pure calcium before bed for 4 days gave me: 0 fatigue, crystal memory and learning, 0 brain fog, better verbal fluency”

“i believe k2, B vitamins, and amino acids L carnitine and glutamine made a difference in my skin.”
