Hello all, great forum. Ive learned quite a bit just reading through the posts.
I have been trying a stack and altering it as I go.
I started with 3 mg liquid deprenyl for a few days. I noticed some minor cogaitive enhancements.
After 3 days I added piracetam. 600mg 2x daily. The first day I took{with deprenyl} it I felt GREAT
for about 4 hours, then got tired. I tried the "attack dose"{800mg x4 daily}, that i now read is not documented as proven to help. I was so tired I could barely work. I cut back to 2x a day and still too tired. I did this for one week.
I read aniracetam is not as sedating. I tried that and it isnt as bad but still tired.
by this time my hydergine arrived. I started it at on half of the 4.5 tablet daily and built up to one tab daily.
I cut the deprenyl back becuse it was making me foggy immediatly after taking it. Since I cut it out i can think clearly again. I`m thinking 1 mg evry few days may be enough of that. I`m 51 years old.
I read about the choline depletion that can occur from the use of these supplements so I got some choline/insotol mix. I took a half of one{250 mg} laid dpwn for a nap,and when I stood up out of bed I almost passed out. Legs of lead,dizzy,lightheaded ect. I am assuming,after searching the posts here,that that the inositol and hydergine,both being vasodialators,dropped my blood pressure way down. So I stopped that. I still get a slight feeling of lightheadedness thoughout the day,yet my bp is hormal. I ordered some alpha-GPC hoping that will help with the tiredness.
I tend to get tired in waves during the day anyway. It doesnt appear to be low suger because 2 hershey bars and coffee dont help.
So anyways, My current stack is:
new:
1 mg liquid deprenylevery other day
4.5 hydergene,split dose
250 mg phenylalinine
1500 aniracetam,split dose
old and still taking:
12 mg subligual pregnenolone{basic hormone balance}
25mg subligual 5-htp { for seritonin}
100mg b complex
1260 mg kelp {possible thyroid}
1 claritin {allergies,pollen,ect}
1200 red yeast rice{lowered total cholesterol 50+ points}
calcium,magnesium,zinc combo
potassium 99mgx4
I tred NADH 5 and 10 mg. Seems to give me some energy,but I am trying to simplify to isolate effects. So i am laying of it for now.
Questions:
About racetams:
I tried pir and got too tired. Ani is better,how is oxi in terms of tiredness? Worth a try?
I read oxi affects the sleeping waves {theta-delta?} the least,but its the most chemically like pir so that doesnt make sense.
Most people say ani makes them least tired,true?
Ive read ani has the shortest half life,but due to it being fat soluble.it`s effects last longer,seems contradictory. is it true?
Relentless improvements racitams are very pure,how do bulk nurtitions compare?
Other stuff
I got hydergine from 2 different places. Nu brain and IAS, Hydergina and redizork
Are both reliable?
The redizork itablets are rose colored with no markings. Are they valid?
NuBrain kind of rammed 60 tabs into a 20 tab box and crossed out the 20 and wrote 60 in pen.The tab containers are sealed and not out of date though. I was wondering if any of that is unusual or suspect in your experiences.
the box from IAS seems more normal,white tabs with markings{novaris}.
My blood pressure runs around 115/65 normally. Is that considered low in terms of these suppliments dropping it ?
Will the alphaGPC drop my BP this way?
Will any niacin drop it this way? {the way inositol may have}
Is ther some other possible reason besides BP for the symptoms of lightheadedness,faint upon arising out of bed{only happened onceafter inositol}? or general lightheadedness while walking around? { in terms of my stack}
Jesus that a lot of questions! I appreciate any responses in advance.
