What people actually say

“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.”

“I've found that getting sun within 3-12 hours will produce the desired result.”

“I have over a decade of MTII use behind me. I have noticed it has become almost unbearable to use this stuff now.”

“A ton, not only did I tan (which I never could) but also cardiac rythm is better, immun system and addictive behaviour got better as well. Fat burning is optimal as well now.”

“Within a week I noticed a huge difference and have since then cut down to a lower, 2-3x a week dose. I didn't get black, but definitely tan, with people noticing it”

“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.”

“noticed when I use BCAA have lower RHR after workouts, so probably must-have”

“Far better than BCAAs which I completely stopped supplementing a good 5 years ago.”

“I use modern BCAA as it has a higher (8:1:1) ratio of Leucine to the other AAs. I didnt see any major benefits from it when doing normal fasted workouts, but it did seem to help in extended workouts.”

“I can't say it the BCAAs though. To many factors... I didn't begin the stack with BCAAs.”

“Other things are in that gray area like sulbutiamine, racetams, selegiline, and nicotine have helped me.”

“Before, I was trying some racetams but reading this article scared the hell out of me about racetams and I stopped.”

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

“Noopept/racetams/choline useful to bring back my recall after I had destroyed it through years of dxm abuse. It DOES work for that, but if you are a healthy adult it does absolutely nothing.”

“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.”

“When I get enough or too much B vitamins I can't sleep.”

“I’ve tried lemon balm, b vitamins, magnesium glycinate, weed, so many things for anxiety. Nothing came close to that drip!”

“I’ve already tried a lot of things some basic things like magnesium, zinc, B vitamins, and PEA, tyrosine, theanine, nac, inositol, creatine, glycine, cafeine, without major results.”

“Glycine, taurine, magnesium, theanine, and magnolia bark have helped me with this issue.”

“This stuff is like a natural benzo. It has been the best supplement that I've taken, so far, to help me relax to sleep.”

“First dosage, a whole tablet made me sleepy and took away all anxiety and stress.”

“Magnolia works okay for my sleep and you only need a small amount to see effects.”

“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 tried to go back to that dosage and couldn't handle it (hands shaking, burning head, anxiety).”

“My anxiety has almost been cleared for the past six months... Sleep is more vivid and more efficient.”

“I've been taking high dose iodine for a few months and it's a NIGHT AND DAY difference for me in my digestion, energy levels, quantity of perspiration and overall feeling of well-being.”
