Can i take a Nootropic? , 25 year old female
glexia 26 May 2006
I´m thinking about begin a nootropic regimen. The reason is because in the past three months i have noticed lower memory, and i´m always absent-minded. I cannot center easily and i have very often mistakes in my job. I have change my life style this year (i used to eat horrible: sugar, chocolate....no vegetables, sometimes fruits, but not every day..), and now i have change this dramaticaly. In the other hand, i always do exercise, 3-4 or 5 days a week in a gym,and sometimes take a multivitamin. I don´t know why i´m feeling that way...if now i´m eating best than before. Do you recommend a nootropic for me?
Thanks! [thumb]

Do your memory and distraction problems coincide with your life style change? I think you should get some blood tests before. Nootropics are mostly "enhancers" and are not going to “heal” you. If you have medical problems, you should find the cause.
Yes, i have done a bood test ,approximately 7 months ago, and the negative points were: anemia (ferropenic) and Cholesterol lower the normal level. Glucose were low , but in normal levels . Now I suppose that the anemia must be corrected due to the change in my nourishment. Of all forms, I will do another analysis shortly.
Now now, what kind of "nootropic" do you want? What exactly do you want it to do?
What about ortho mind?? do you recommend it to me?.
your memory is not fading with age at 25, thats for sure... get your diet/dietary supplement regimen(multi,omega3,etc), sleep routine, stress relief(meditation, yoga) and exercise in check before you even think about noots.
I think that to do yoga or meditation will help me. I´ll try to put it in practice. [thumb]

Odd as this might sound, I'm going to put in a plug to picking up a new area of study. During a time I dropped out of school for a while, I saw a huge drop in my ability to retain new information when I needed it. It wasn't until I got back, and had to put in the daily mental excercise of a good sitdown with flashcards that I saw myself getting back to what I considered normal. Since then I've made a point of always having some subject that I'm somewhat unfamiliar with to study. Not even so much for the topic itself, though of course that is important for both motiation and purpose, but just because I've found that study sessions have a positive impact on my ability to remember information in other aspects of my life as well.

use iron bis-glycinate(the albion chelate) & take an iron-free multi at seperate times during the day.

I can't say. This whole nootropic thing is more about experimenting than proper diagnostic...
