I wonder if Pregnenolone is as good as the statement made there:
"PREGNENOLONE: THE GRANDMOTHER OF ALL STEROID HORMONES
Bill, a sixty-eight-year-old engineer from Park City, Utah, says, “I find pregnenolone to be a powerful memory booster. Ever since I started taking 5 mg three times a week, I remember phone numbers and names much easier.”
Most users of pregnenolone (Preg), find this hormone to help with learning and memory, mood and energy, speed of thinking, verbal fluency, concentration and focus, creativity, vision, hearing, awareness, and sensory perception. Some even report an enhancement in sex drive and sexual enjoyment.
Preg is primarily made in the adrenal glands from cholesterol, but it can also be made in other tissues, including the brain. I call Preg the “grandmother of all the steroid hormones” since the body uses it to convert into DHEA, progesterone, and other steroid hormones (see Figure 14.1). Human research with Preg is very limited but several rodent studies have shown it to be a powerful memory enhancer (Flood 1995). "
mmmm?

SAHELIAN tends to be conservative to the point of recommending homeopathic doses of supps, so I'd like to see LifeMirages dose recommendations.
On the other hand:
rec.drugs.smart:
INFOHAZARD:
"Animal studies show nootropic effects at very low doses.
The body probably makes 15 to 20 mg a day, most of which is converted
into every other known steroid. The body knows what to do with
physiologic quantities. I try not to use more than 15mg daily in
divided doses, however.
If you pubmed it, you may note that it's reported to be excitotoxic to
the retina. The other thing is to note that much of it is converted
in the stomach and liver to pregnenolone sulfate, which can have very
different actions, so the SL route may be of significance. (I note a
mild benzo- like effect SL)"
