My natural language is Portuguese, so sorry for my poor english. Ill do my best to express my experience and question.
Ive started my nootropics experience 3 months ago with Piracetam and Choline Bitartrate and got some nice results since the beginning. Then i inserted Alpha GPC ( 100% Alpha GPC, not the 50% mix ) on my daily dosage… I must say that when i bought the pure GPC i had no idea about the difference between the pure and the 50% mix, so my GPC start dose was 350mg 3x times a day. I didnt noticed any improovement on the first day then on second day, when i got a crazy headache, i decided to bring back the Choline Bitartrate and use it with GPC….. Thats when it started to work.
On the third day, it was a sunday and i was listening to some tracks on my home studio when i had this amazing experience with the music i was listening. I could mentally "see" the elements on the track…i could even see the reverb texture and i could remember the track structure right after the first listening. After this AMAZING experience i thought that MAYBE i could be taking too much of GPC and as i dont want to develop any tolerance i decided to lower the DAILY dosage to 2x 350, instead 3x 350. Tried the dosage ( 2x 350) for 2 days and decided to go ahead make some capsules.
Capsules… ohh man, it was a nightmare to make them. GPC is soo unstable… Not sure if it related to humidity or temperature, but it was not easy at all to make the capsules… GPC melts too easily. And as i didnt knew exactly which capsules to use, i decided to test it on Size 1 capsules.. So after the nightmare to make them i have checked their weight on the scale and…. for my surprise, ive made 450mg capsules. grrrr
So, got my 450mg capsules and no chance "re make" them.
Then ive started using them with my daily stack:
Piracetam 800mg
Choline Bitartrate 450mg
Alpha GPC 450mg ( only 2x a day )
PS 1: Piracetam: After the attack dose, which ive had for a month, i could stabilize piracetam at 800mg. From time to time i have to up the dosage to 1600mg for 1 or 2 days and then i can lower the dose to 800mg again with excellent results.
PS 2: Some times i take 300mg of DMAE Bitartrate along my first ( morning ) dosage. Which probably inserts even more choline on my body.
PS 3: Ive tried to take each of the elements alone to check their effects and i can tell that my body response to choline is better then to piracetam… but when i mix them on a stack, the effect gets a lot better.
PS 4: Alpha GPC is taken only 2x a day.. sometimes when i want to extend my experience, i take the third dose :-) The third dose when taken with caffeine is the best :-) ahah
So, my question is… As i am planning to use it for a long time, Is there any problem taking this much of Choline ?
Any advices ? Sugestions ?
Thanks in advance and sorry again for my english.
