this stuff can cause brain damage and glowies are promoting it to try to harm you. theanine, hmb, creatine, caffeine and nicotine are nootropic and proven safe, there's no need to try dangerous stuff like this when there are safe and effective alternatives.

Worked pretty well. I was actually like
>>54305576
this, but then a friend gave me a couple so i could try it for a week or so, and i actually felt a really big improvement on the concentration part (not so much on sleep since my schedule is fucked up so it wont get fixed unless i fix that). My main strategy is small investments on growing coins (i buy and keep it no more than a few weeks max then move to another) on dextools so i work with a lot of really small numbers and my concentration has decreased over the years, even more when it's little details. After using it for 2 months i can say i've had a major improvement, it's not as life-changing as some people make it out to be but it definitely does its job and you lose nothing for trying it, different people have different resistances.

Lions Mane unregulated brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) within the brain so in theory it should help with clearing brain fog. Think about how you feel after a hard workout - that’s also BDNF up regulation. Other than upregulating BDNF you can look to cholinergic nootropics as this correlates to memory. Huperzine is touted for its cholinergic effects. Nevertheless, meditation, exercise, binaural beats and some caffeine and/or nicotine is unmatched; as dopamine also plays a role.

psychs generally antagonize serotonin which is an inhibitory, antimetabolic, proinflammatory hormone at the levels most people produce. antagonism of serotonin leads to increased responsiveness to excitatory neurotransmitters like dopamine, while shifting the burden of "inhibition" onto gaba (you want this), increased metabolic rate, increased growth factors, etc. a lot of the claims are true, although people who aren't in a state of low grade chronic serotonin syndrome probably won't notice too much difference over time.

well... I switched the booze out for two macro doses a month. it's a good tradeoff but I'd prefer to be content with sobriety, but without money it's not easy.
anyways, from what I understand the next big thing ought to be increasing both nerve growth factor and neural plasticity at the same time so you can more easily learn new skills. baeocystin + lions mane does that as far as I'm aware but you have to get high to do it lol. whos reasearching that?

l-dopa/tyrosine helped me a lot during post-acute withdrawal disorder in the first year after i got off heroin but i would not recommend doing it long term. same with 5-htp, bacopa muriens, rhodea rosiola, etc

lion's mane/mushroom blend, ashwaghanda, niacin, black seed oil, curcumin and the stuff you'd find in a multivitamin are all good though. i notice that my "baseline" for cognitive function is higher when i take my supplements, along with energy level, focus, stamina. it's like i get about 10-25% extra added to my mental and physical batteries.

I don't smoke but I'm tempted to try nicotine gum. I understand it's habit forming / addictive, but it also has health benefits (like protection against age-related cognitive decline) without the health risks associated with smoking, and only seems to be dangerous in especially high doses.

Nicotine contracts your blood vessels, which fucks with your bodies ability to deliver oxygen and nutrients where it's needed. Your skin starts looking like shit, your hair follicles will be getting less nutrients so your hair will be thinning and oxygen delivery to your muscles during and after workouts will fuck with your recoveries. Nicotine is a stupid fucking drug to get addicted to, and any positive effects you might get will be drowned out by the negatives

Also, if you have ever had surgery you might remember that the doctors always tell you to stay away from nicotine at least 2 weeks before the surgery and at least 2 weeks after the surgery. That's because of what I said. The nicotine fucks with your bodies ability to repair itself, so if you use it before or after surgery there could be serious complications because your body won't heal
