First - light - stack without any -racetam

Sun Apr 23, 2017 3:27 pm

Category: Alertness, Cognition, Mood
Study, focus, mood
Ingredients:
- Caffeine — 100 mg, Daily
- L - theanine — 250 mg, Daily
- Alpha gpc — 150 mg, twice daily
- Omega 3 — 1000 mg, Daily
Any suggestion about dosage or any additional ingredient ? Like Hup A ? The purpose is to create an effective stack with no racetam, due to my local severe laws about these medicines (need a doctor prescription).

I am wary of huperzine, I think it would lead to downregulation of the cholinergic system, unless there is evidence to say otherwise. Galantamine would be a better option, but is often only available via prescription, and you'd only want to be taking a tiny amount if you lack relevant disease states. I recommend checking out bacopa and rhodiola for a natural, mild cognitive boost. Coffee would also be preferred over caffeine, as coffee contains beneficial phytonutrients in it that make it a health-promoting form of caffeine. Seafood (even canned) would be preferred over omega 3s, as they contain health-promoting dipeptides and are more suredly health-promoting than fish oil. Alpha GPC is a good choice, you might like to add Uridine as they are a good combo. Theanine is always good and cheap too.

Thank you Adam, your advice is really welcome ! I've heard contrasting opinions on both bacopa and rhodiola. I thought that alpha gpc + 1 ingredient (like uridine, as you said) would be sufficient for my purpose. Any opinion about dosage ? Thanks again!
