I've not used aniracetam for years; my sources would not be current. When I did, it was not FDA regulated as it was not a recognized drug in the US. I do not know its current status.Maxwatt, where do you buy your aniracetam from?

I have ALCAR from a brand called Nutra bulk, and it's just that a hell of a lot of 500 mg ALCAR pills. Do you think this isn't good stuff? And should I refrigerate it?There is nothing specific for math. The parts of the brain involved with math include the temporal lobe, and the region around the tempoporal-parietal fissure. The lateral occipital region can be involved too. Brain development does occur with mental exercise, meaning you will get better at it if yu keep doing it.
One of the biggest assets for math is good working memory. A typical person can remember a string of 6 or 7 digits in a lab setting. Your typical college math major will remember 18 or more. Aniracetam and some developmental drugs apparently can improve working memory to some degree. Much of the internet aniracetam that is sold is counterfeit (especially bulk powder and encapsulated powder, but the blister-acked stuff is sometimes counterfeit or past expiration date) and the legality is questionable. The other 'racetams do not seem to be as effective according to the company trying to develop such a drug around the aniracetam molecular structure.
Acetyl-l-carnitine may also improve memory. It is said to improve response-time (i.e., speed of thought.) My own experience with it was improved puzzle-solving ability. Probable dose 1000 to 1500 mg. It is expensive, and it does not have a good shelf-life, so much of what you can buy in a health food store likely has been exposed to too much heat, and has deteriorated.
Chinese folk-medicine holds that dates with walnuts are good for mental function, and this food combination has been recommended for students studying for exams. It would be nice if it works. Rosemary has a long fold-medicine tradition in the west as an aid to memory, and I believe some recent studies support this.

Except B12, what other B-vitamins are essential to good brain functioning?
