Disappointed that Semax isn't on this list lol.

Centrophenoxine+Phenylpiracetam = Great standard stack in my opinion

 

5HTP+NALT+EGCG+Pyritinol (BBB permeable B6) is another favorite stack of mine.

Where is methylene blue or CDP-choline? 

 

However I voted for Adderall, because I think it is the mother of all nootropics and everything else that happens here,

is just because people either don't want to use the real thing, or fail into intake escalation.

 Modafinil has been wonders for me in sales . Most people would say it's not a nootropic, but armodafinil should still have some effect when you wake.  Racetam wide piracetam and oxiracetam is my go to . I wish phenylpiracetam didn't have such high tolerance curve I'd take that over modafinil any day ... Herbal wise I'd say loins main mushroom in bulletproof coffee. Semax is good as well not a lot of study's on long term use though .

Another individual who doesn't understand what it means for a thing to be nootropic. Adderal a nootropic, are you serious?

I don't simply want to promote or advise a better performance nootropic such as Cerebrolysin without even taking it. However, I have used perhaps 20+ different supplements and nootropics.

 

Semax and Selank were the most recent in injection formulation. Selank was very activating. Semax was alright, but I didn't care for it as much as Selank. I have a vial of NA-Semax-Amidate 60mg I never used, and almost half or more of NA-Semax. I used around 60% of NA-Selank and it was effective. I found lower dose 1-2 times a day more effective then a larger dose in the morning.

 

Reports have mentioned that after taking Cerebrolysin, it was the most effective drug in comparison. I plan on buying a course of treatment in the coming weeks from a proper vendor and calf blood.

 

Cerebrolysin by far

Methelyene Blue I have, but I will need to take it capped. It's not very pleasant to drink. CDP-Choline, or the Alpha-Choline was the source I was going to purchase, but it came out of stock on nootropicdepot.

 

Adderall was always nice. I took at most 60mg in 20mg IR 3x daily when I was 16-19. It was effective. I didn't always take it and often had hundreds I never used because I was not persistent. It was effective for mood, visuals, and performance. It made me sweat, feel dehydrated, and heart concerns; I would not exercise with it. Anyway, it was also kind of dirty, and always wanted to try the Modafinil and Provigil. Concerta was another non-Adderall based agent, caffine really wasn't effective, and Desyoxn was also nice, but more speedy.

 

Where is methylene blue or CDP-choline?

I used it for a month in a half and ran out. Im about to start another cycle. I would do 2 day on one day off and sometimes one day on and one day off. Liposomal glutathione on the days off as I read cerebrolysin depletes that. I was also using NSI 189 with it and a little dihexa.

if "another racetam" wins i'm taking that to mean ginkgo, because ginkgo is clearly in the league of racetams.  and if caffeine wins i'm taking that to mean tea.  it's no competition.  tea even smells nice, which is more than you can say about the pungent aroma of brewed coffee or the stale air floating around your mom's sweats after a run to the corner store

I selected Selegiline.

 

I had high selection preference for Piracetam, Modafinil, Melatonin, and an acetylcholine agent, with preference of Selegiline due to neuroprotection, ability tor raise DA levels, and cognition activation. I'll buy Selegiline and write the experience, there's a high desire to personal note if it's a pleasurable compound, activating, and doesn't produce a sick-feeling even though it's not toxic. I'm not compelling not to try it. Piracetam would be my first/second choice. Modafinil/Adderall were performance agents in my mind.

Modafinil.

It makes me focused, alert and energetic over long periods of time. I can take one in the morning and work focused on a complex task. Best combined with piracetam/choline or phenibut if you also have to be social during the day.

My life is quite accurately described as pre- and post-modafinil. I first started 1,5 years ago now (cycling, of course). Since then my accomplishments have grown several fold.

The main reason is that modafinil allows me to be productive after a long day work at my day job, so that I can work on my start-ups.

Adrafinil, but now I switched to Fluorenol (Hydrafinil). More effective than Modafinil/Adrafinil. Increased mood, memory and focus, better recall, and way more energy throughout the day.

Racetams are simply divine, that is when they work. I feel I’ve always enjoyed the selection of differing racetams as opposed to Piracetam alone. The racetam experience is just an incredible thing, plus they are legal. The colour saturation, the mild euphoria, the focus, and on top of that they repair the brain. So that got my vote.

I used to love modafinil, until it produced a histamine dump that led to mast cell delamination and a visit to the ER (when your blood pressure is 60/40, you really need some third party help). Racetams, however, are what mono said, divine.

To my own surprise; and not limiting — Hydergine was actually an intense, complex necrologicalmy, and organically psychedelic experience. Admittedly, a notable GERD reaction had been noted but I knew it was a common elicitation of ergoloids. The young and my natural health state must have been synergenic and promoted intense brain shocks and perception augmentation.


I consumed my first oral dose at age 17-18 in the amount of 0.5mg, and eventually once daily at 1mg on approximately day 4. Piracetam at both 50mg and 1,000mg remained effective as a potent nootropic; Selank was effective as a neurological enhancing agent and demonstrated physical and neurochemical augmentation without too much remark of differentiation.

Ehh, it’s not practical to hold a biased stance on pharmacological augmentation and exercise which to be more effective than another.


It’s appropriate to understand application and benefit. I would run 2 miles around my sub-division every day or so; and once I would I sprinted home and caught my breath, I was on another plane — literally.


Life was very quantum; and very much kenetic. Remembers old days and nights if spacing out in my room never wondering where my mind was to wonder and was always in the realm of complex experience.
