Nootropics...

[Payshince]

So I use,

Turmeric with BioPerine as Ive said recently
+ VitD, Magnesium, but also
I have been taking
Ashwagandha KSM-66,
Bacopa Monnieri, and some days Ginseng Extract.

I also just got some NAC, and Agmatine!
Plus TeaCrine instead of Caffeine with L-Theanine!

Does anyone know a good amount about Nootropics and especially about NAC and or Agmatine?
I dont take my Rhodiola Rosea - Salidroside 3% / Rosavins 1% much because I already take stimulants like caffeine and my adderall prescribed.

I took the NAC once so far and got a stomach ache just curious as if that’ll go away in time and if its worth adding...
Along with Agmatine, anything I should be particularly aware of and caution?
Agmatine made my dose the other night kind of neutral where I felt like it had an impact as if I just spaced out? I honestly have no idea if it was the Agmatine I just noticed I felt that way around thw same time of taking it with my Kray dose.

I came across Lions Den or is it Dane? (Recently) and also Cordyceps
I will prob try both in the next month or so but more importantly is the
NAC ***
&
Agmatine ***
Combined with all the other stuff I use
And with Kratom in general and anyone’s personal experiences, insight, advice, ETC. (precautions).*

Almost forgot to add CBD to my mix!

Just hope to gain knowledge about what to take and what Not to take.

Any ideas on what else you might take for Nootropics is greatly helpful as well!!

Lions mane and cordyceps are great! I grow my own lions mane, it's fun and tasty as damnit. I usually stick to mct, turmeric extract, lions mane, cordiceps, and chaga.

[Payshince]

Yes Cordyceps and Lions Mane I will be grabbing very soon!

Im highly curious and eagerly waiting...

What benefits do you get and are those “herbs”
Generally safe you’d say?...

[Nemo Sapien]

I'd say they are safe for use every day. I used to buy a coffee that had lions mane and chaga mixed in with it.. got expensive seeing how much coffee I drink so I started making my own. For me the mushrooms mixed with the coffee make for a more stimulating drink without the shakes from lots of caffeine. Just makes me feel more alert and "bright".

Supposedly, lions mane and chaga have lots of "anti-cancer" properties. Chaga has become more popular and there is talk of overharvesting. Which is concerning due to the fact that you can't grow chaga like you can lions mane and cordyceps. Cordyceps are a good substitute for chaga though.

Don't know much about nootropics, but stay the hell away from phenibut and tianeptine

I 2nd that, ,ugg,I lean to natural remedies,
Been researching a lot about magic mushrooms, blue lotus, ,things like l-argamine,,etc. I know nothing about these things , but I am still looking into the shrooms, supposedly micro dosing somehow resets brain, helping eliminate anxiety, depression, etc. The thing is how these remedies interact with pharma medications, I know cbd oil is expensive, and then you have to be careful that your buying true cbd,,I am using it for cholesterol concerns, and my daughter uses it for her ocd,,depression, anxiety, and lots of other mental issues, kratom along with cbd oil from blue sky,Colorado, is helping her,she has fewer meltdowns

I’m happy to hear that your daughter has found some things naturally helpful for her! Thats great!

Yeah I would looove to microdose psilocybin and will some day too. I have yet to even try them and I don’t have a source soo there’s that...

Anyway, I have a few good reputable CBD brands/ sources that I can rely on and trust sono worries there! Thankfully.
CBD is pricey tho once in awhile I will stock up..



Btw Oletimer I hope you’re doing “okay” at least
Since we last talked about your Rx. God bless

I tried Ashwagandha but, morning wood at 44 years of age is just pesky

As far as other supplements I drink a shot of unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar at least twice daily
Ltheanine, L tyrosine, L lysine Vitamin B complex all once daily.

Sometimes I use Guarana, Ginseng and Phenibut but only once a week.

Oh I forgot....magnesium and potassium daily
.....and kratom

Im done with drugs or “potentially strong and harmful nootropics”. Ex: Phenibut

Honestly I prolly would’ve easily loved that stuff a few years back not just bcuz I hear its a lovely “h!6h” or whatever but because it works! Point is I have not and am not going to touch that stuff.

I was hooked on an Rx Benzo for almost 4.5 yrs at 2.00mg and daily drinker with it! I am a year off benzos will never touch that shit again unless someone puts that into my system during surgery or something like that during a hospital stay of some sort?... anyway yeah
Beathappening as you say NOT to touch Pheni

Yeah def good with that stuff no thank u

The only strong dtuff I will put in my system for as long as I live is either microdosing LSD or peyote or psilocybin! or DMT
All microdosing though

I already have enough issues ...

I dont mean to say things about Pheni without knowing someone close to me whos experienced that stuff or have myself!
I just read daily on forums like DoubleM and Reddit all sorts of aspects here there everywhere...
Just a pote tially harmful substance of course ppl with Anxiety and addictive personalities should stay away I hear due to liking it too much and terrible W/Ds

Im good thats all!

The Apple Cidar Vinegar omg I honestly dk how you drink that esp. a shot!
Not that its bad becuz it is Good!* but bcuz its so strong tasting and I tried doing that a week ago after hearing this same thing of ppl using it to toss n wash or just simply a good healthy thing to consume.
Despite the acidity!
And pungent taste!

I love vinegar and apple cidar but damn is that stuff STRONG

Its like putting those Sour altoids in your mouth like 10 at a time and those strong af Purple/Black Airheads? In your mouth all at once
Pucker UP baby!!! Hahaha

Nyway god bless

Yeah, the ACV is definitely strong, I just use a couple of tablespoons and add water, it's not a whole shot glass but I don't do it with my kratom, just throughout the day. It helps your liver to break down supplements and I have found that my burns are a little stronger and last longer. It works very good for me.

Yeah, the phenibut ain't for everybody, hope I didn't offend anyone. Cheers!

I use it a couple times @ month. Powerful stuff mos' def don't GO there, IF U have problems w/ substance abuse.

At only 500 mg the fx are strong, the hangover next day is real .. 1 time I did 1000 mg, never again. Not worth it!! Felt like I needed to sleep for 24 hours.

Also the HCI standard phenibut, is very very harsh. Hydrochloric Acid.. care about your tooth enamel? Must use a straw to bypass the mouth... Read a story on Reddit, some idiot tried to dose it sublingual - Had inside of his mouth covered in bleeding sores & gums gone, it loosened his teeth

I did order the F.A.A. phenibut version from Liftmode.. it's a superior formula imo
