Stimulatory amino acids

experimenting's Photo experimenting 05 Jun 2018

Do any of these exist and if so are they healthy/safe for long term use?

Essentially seeking something that provides a subtle extra edge.

phenylalanine and l-tyrosine(NALT) is best. Those will give non amphetamine users nice clean safe energy. Unfortunately I on the other hand could take them right before bed and sleep like a baby.

Are these safe long term?

I don’t see why not as they are just amino acids. Phenylalanine Is an essential amino acid and tyrosine is a non essential amino acid which your body naturally produces anyway.

There were a number of products which contained combos like:

 

few grams tyrosine/N acetyl tyrosine,

phosphatidyl choline/CDP choline

vinpocetine

acetyl carnitine

DMAE, etc

 

which were quite nice yielding more alertness, mild stimulation without any jitteriness, etc.  Quite nice for studying, long periods of concentration, etc.  I think the first one was by a "bodybuilding" type company and they still make one, but at one point there were a number of knock off and you can make your own with bulk supps easily enough.  Very safe for long term use.
