Nootropics. I know /sci/ has probably had loads of threads on this, but this one is a little different.

I've read about it and watched YouTube reviews, and I've come to the conclusion that either its complete snake oil or the people who typically go out of their way to get all this stuff are kinda dumb or of average intelligence who wish they were above average. Which is it, /sci/entists?

I'm above average, and this sounds arrogant but, my logic says that I have a Corvette brain, so I need to put high octane fuel in it. My diet is... OK. I love caffeine. I take a multivitamin and fish oil supplements. But I want more, so I'm getting some L-Theanine and Choline soon.

What should I spend my money on with regards to more advanced things like Piracetam and Noopept, if anything?

Uh well, I checked the catalog, but I never saw a discussion on whether or not these things are horseshit.

You think buying drugs is the only way to get a significant cognitive boost.

I will eventually be on caloric food only (and salad for minerals). Feels more master race. I also do coffee and green tea.

So why don't you get some high octane fuel

ive only tried piracetam and aniracetam
with piracetam i feel more creative and i wake up on time... always no matter what.., sleep in too much it fucks up your day lol
i take 5grams 1-3 times a day, still messing with the dosages
only take choline if you get headaches 250mg goes a long way

aniracetam just gives me motivation and removes the strain from intensive learning/activities

ie i took a few flight lessons after each 1 hour session i was mentally wiped out, aniracetam takes that away completely

i dont take it on a regular basis only when needed
i find it really helps with learning to play the piano

dose 1-1.5 grams when needed, kicks in about 1-2hours


its all fairly subtle, dont expect miracles
but i find its worth it

Nah its nuts and fruits, anything with protein, especially boiled eggs.

Oh, and Monster and McDonalds.

The studies on piracetam are very extensive. I can't speak for other _racetam's.

Piracetam has improved my memory greatly. I can't tell if it has done anything else but memory boost is a definite one. It has cut my studying in half and I can recall more than I would before, it's really, really great for me.

I had a really bad memory before it though. Well, it would take me 3-5 days of straight studying for hours a day just to get the grade I can get now studying for 2-3 hours the night before the test. I would look into it if your memory is pretty bad

Hey op if you need some high octane fuel for your corvette brain your should get your hands on some psilocybin mushrooms
