What people actually say

“I was using 1500mg L-phenylalanine daily with fantastic results for about two months”

“It helped me stay on Lamotrigine, which is the only med that works for my depression.”

“I’ve since trialled Pregabalin and currently been on Lamotrigine for 7 weeks and zero improvement.”

“I've realized I'm losing my short-term memory a lot as a side effect of Lamotrigine, 400 mg.”

“I was on Seroquel briefly, but found lamotrigine to be much more effective with less side effects.”

“lift weights. Legs, chest, back, arms... It's a nice feeling when I stick some protein in the oven and can just pump out a few sets”

“I work out pretty much 4-5 days a week with heavy weight. 85kg-100kg now and doing it for 2.5 years. Definitely helps mentally but the drop off is insane.”

“I lift weights now in the morning, but it doesn't seem to give me the same cognitive/energy benefits as cardio does”

“Weight lifting along with increase in protein intake without increasing overall calories helped a lot with my anxiety and moods”

“Oleamide - I feel like I need less sleep when taking this.”

“I've taken high doses of the oleamide (with olive oil & stearamide) and felt very little.”

“Oleamide works well but it gives me hyplclonic jerks consistently then on from the second night I take it even at 100mg. Crazy because it really does knock me out”

“I've also experimented with 1g of Oleamide but I didn't really have any noticeable results”

“I also like sunifiram + unifiram. Slight stimulant effect, increases focus (without tunnel vision that pramiracetam gives), and provides a nice – albeit minor – mood boost.”

“The most potent Nootropic for this is Sunifiram. In my opinion it is the most potent generally. Unfortunately I get insanely furious when taking it, which got worse over time.”

“Sunifiram seems to do amazing for keeping my brain running well off little-no sleep, but the effects are extremely short-lived.”

“I took 15mg in the morning. Then I had a iced chai drink...I felt like I was highly caffeinated, all day long.”

“Longvida curcumin is my reset when neuroinflammation gets high, slices through brain fog and helps with numbness.”

“I've been taking it for months and have noticed nothing.”

“I also noticed synergy between modafinil and longvida form curcumin, which may imply that the piperine is not the only substance affecting modafinil efficacy. The effects were significantly greater than either substance taken on its own.”

“I use longvida curcumin to avoid the piperine issue, and it works great.”

“I have been feeling what appears to be a large range of effects from schisandra that is simply relaxing, smooth, not anxious”

“I literally use Schisandra to put me to sleep, it helped cure my insomnia completely.”

“It completely wrecked my sleep when taken before bed ... Just a tremendous amount of focus and well-being that hits around the 1-hour mark and lasts most of the day at 500mg.”

“I take the powder sublingually and the effects are much stronger and set in faster.”

“Quercetin and bromelain, Vitamin K and D, astaxanthan, fish oil, turmeric, boron, msm, and coq10. I have osteoarthritis and this combo has been helping with the pain.”

“I just started adding it (I take 4 of them on an empty stomach and the difference is night and day. It's an anti-inflammatory...Been taking it for a week and wow.”

“Bromelain, in particular for joint aches but it relieves inflammation throughout the body, in my case my sinus clears (I have allergic rhinitis) and I breathe better. An unexpected but very welcome benefit is that taking it a couple of hours before bed, I wake up more rested and energized.”

“i am going to try curcumun and bromelain based on u/shrillthrill recommendation...Curcumin (1g / piperine 10mg) seemed to be additive.”

“I truly feel much less stressed in traffic/at work, etc. I cannot believe how little fiber my family has, and therefore I grew up having.”

“I have tried each and every single one of these for at least a three week period. I felt zero change.”

“Fiber, by a long shot. All my health markers look far better and I easily lost 10-15 lbs without trying.”

“Once the fiber content went up (with good protein amounts, I do beans though) it changed the system.”

“I’ve been taking the buspar these last couple days and it seems to handle my level of anxiety quite well.”

“came back with Buspirone which is not an SSRI. It has its own issues, but I could sleep.”

“I've been on 5 mg twice a day for about a year. I can't really notice the effects on anxiety, but when I ran out...my anxiety was through the roof.”

“We landed on buspirone. After just 2 weeks I felt a huge shift in my daily mood/anxiety. I started to relax and enjoy things again.”

“BCAAs can help with feeling tired in the gym. I use to use (before I ran out) All Day You May.”

“I noticed the connection for me when supplementing with bcaa’s even before I knew about the correlation. I stopped taking them because of it.”

“People hate on BCAA's but I always feel they help me get through a long gym session”
