It has some evidence for bodily benefits.
Makes sense if you want more choline, but don’t want to over do it on the brain effects.

The mushroom blend looks pretty bad, Honestly I would just get any BCAA with peak 02 over this.
Eh I figure that is more merchandise, you aren’t really buying it for the value, you are buying it because you like GC.
It probably would have helped if the rest of his line didn’t use the same strategy though.
a good read while on the shittier…

Brands that state on the label that their products contain “mycelium,” “mycelia,” “myceliated rice,” or any type of grain in either the supplements facts or “other ingredient” label sections contain myceliated grain mushrooms. Myceliated grain mushrooms are grown in plastic containers on cooked, sterilized cereal grains, such as oats, rice, milo or sorghum, (instead of on real tree trunks and rich soils.)
When mushrooms are grown this way, the mycelium fibers become deeply enmeshed with the grains and can’t be effectively separated from them. The result is a product that’s high in starch because of the grains, rather than nutrient-rich properties found in real, full spectrum fruiting body mushrooms.

^^ VT brought up a great point on another forum
"He’s using mycelium. This is not the same as the mature mushrooms, but it’s basically the fungal growth that occurs prior to the fruiting/development of the mushrooms themselves.
I am not well versed on what active constituents these specific strains have during the mycelium stage, however I am confident that mycelium is missing many of the “actives” or at least the levels of actives that we’re looking for that they’re full grown counterparts have.
This has me extremely dubious."

Would love to see a COA / 3rd party test on the chemix products (VT also said this too)
I just asked them about the mycelium. They’re going to send me the suite to run and log for a couple weeks.
Worthy of note - chemist lifestyle did say that a thought their pre is listed at 20 servings, the considered taking the Ghost approach and saying it could be 40 servings, and that half a scoop would be solid for the average guy.
Taking it all with a groan of salt, but nonetheless, I’m excited to atleast try them.
is that their way of saying “just try it bro”?

I’ll be happy to send out some samples to 3 people. I’ll run a contest to pick some winners. I’ll wait until they actually send it…
You would all be surprised how often companies claim they will send something but never do. Props to Ghost, Scivation, and Sparta, as they are always on top of this.

Haha. I feel like three is fair. Maybe not even a contest - I’d like for people who I know will give good feedback to do it. Maybe @Dougefresh93 and @TheSolution - who else would give quality feedback?
I’m interested to get feedback, because this crap is so expensive, I want objectivity. I doubt I will ever recommend it over cheaper options, unless it just blows my mind. Looking at the label, I don’t suspect that to be the case.

So he is telling me
.5g of Peak02 is worthy?
.75g of Glycerpump is worthy?
250mg of Tyrosine and Kanna
200mg of DMAE
Like really? These dosing are nothing worthy of going the “Half scoop route”
