I started researching and using them about 2 years ago. I started with the basics ALCAR, Choline Bitartrate, herbals and my 1st racetam was Piracetam. It was just a matter of testing them on myself and seeing which ones actually worked for me.
N-Acetyl Semax or Noopept Increased/Enhanced perception.
I am able to perceive colors and objects in HD fashion.
Due to the way I can perceive things, I am able to be more creative and fluent with ideas.Increase in my ability to pay more attention to details. I am visually able to recreate concepts in detail.
PRL853 for the memory boost and memory recall.Helps me to memorize information better and provides noticeable increases in ability to recall information. Here is an example. I am doing a kitchen bid proposal and going over all the different finishes. Instead of constantly looking at my notes, I am able to I remember almost all of ideas. The best part about this is my client notices this too.
After trying different dosages, I now use 10mgs.
It kicks in quick and taste horrible.
Phenylpiracetam, Adrafinil, or CRL-40-940 for mental focus.
-Increased focus and mental alertness. it makes me feel more focused and alert.
-Increased energy with no jitters
-Increased physical endurance
Bromantane 50mgtwice a day
-Physical energy boost
-Great mood booster
-Reduces anxiety
Itâs an interesting category. Iâve tried AlphaBrain by Onnit (crazy dreams at night), Mental Jewels by Ambrosia (Marc Lobliner) and most recently have been using Cerevan by Dr. Mike Roussell. Do they work? Iâm not sure. Productivity-wise I used to use Pre-Jym or Brain Candy by Biotest if I needed to finish up or concentrate on work. Not quite sure if it âmade me smarterâ.
I never really did a lot of research on these. At this point to me I donât feel they are something I want to spend my money on. I would rather buy good food.
I love nootropics, im generally on either alpha-GPC/CDP Choline + ALCAR during the school year. Around summer time is when I take time off these nootropics.
Phenylpiracetam has really caught my eye, but Iâm not sure about its âsafetyâ or on what âlevelâ it is, compared to nootropics such as CDP-choline. By âlevelâ I mean that how Phenibut, although a nootropic, is much higher on the ânootropic level.â Iâm kind of having difficulty explaining what Iâm saying, but basically Iâm trying to differentiate the âlevelsâ as in, comparing your regular stimulants (hordenine, theobromine, higenamine) to amphetamine type stimulants (DMAA/DMHA). Iâve had bad experiences in terms of mood, or after effects/withdrawals from stimulants such as DMHA, etc. (at times, not all the time)
Yeah, as much as the research is cool and there may be LTP benefits, I donât âfeelâ anything with it, and havenât been diligent enough to take it daily because of that.
Thatâs crazy, for me I donât get much of any added focus with DMHA. For me itâs just an enjoyable stimulant that puts me in a good mood at the right dose (125-150mg).
I freaking love phenylpiracetam, but most of the time my use has come from using it in InnovaPharmâs LIMITLESS pre workout supplement (with DMHA) about 1x/week. Those are fun days for me.
No clue on the dose inside, I should get some raw phenylpiracetam to figure it out for real.
I donât think itâs that scary - if youâve enjoyed piracetam and enjoy PEA compounds, youâll probably like it. Just not an every day nootropic IMHO
Bromantane is incredible.I hold 50 under my tongue for up to 5 minutes.Itâs a calm energy for sure.
Great whwnyou have to think quickly in a high stress environment.Youâll notice this fairly quickly if you have a physically demanding job. If you have a stressful physically demanding job Bromantane is a good option.
Stuff seems pretty solid, but overpriced. And to me, over-caffeinated. I prefer my nootropics caffeine free so I can add them to preworkouts and such. Most nootropics that have come out recently have been caffeinated so Iâve never gotten any.
I like it. One thing I will say thoughâŚand I experienced this with MentalJewels as wellâŚ
At nightâŚand no matter what time I seemed to take it during the day - I would have a tough time sleeping at nightâŚI would be tired but my mind would be racingâŚ
Really like NootropimaxâŚand have tried BrainBridgeâŚIâd like to try ControlledLabs BrainwashâŚNow that Iâve moved away from stims pre-workout itâs much easier to try stims in my nootropics for work related activitiesâŚ
