3g oxi??? CHrist I wouldn’t like to try that…

Looking forward to the bacopa tomorrow as it sounds very nice. Anxiolytic amongst other things. Not that I’m a stresshead anymore, since putting myself on TRT, but hey, it’s all good.

That’s since 6am this morning mind you. Recently I’ve found going from around 500mg to 1000mg per dose does give me far more of an effect. In the past however 500mg was where the benefits plateaued, so I’m not sure what’s happened there.

I’d be interested to hear about your bacopa experience - I’ve thought about gitin me summa that from bulkpowers.co.uk more than a few time.

Oh, and apparently oxi is a diuretic, or so I’ve found.

Anyway, I still shouldn’t be on here! Grrr

            Good to hear success on the anirace. Where did you get yours? Same question on the sulbut.

I got them from BN… I just popped 300mg for my workout in half an hour, so we’ll see how it goes.

Interesting; 1000mg of salbutiamine did NOTHING for me.

Powders came from the usual ‘bulk’ source so I’m certain they’re genuine.

PS - might start on the bacopa monnieri tomorrow.[/quote]

Really? I don’t know, I mixed my 600mg with an energy drink- sugar free Rock Star, perhaps it interacted strongly with the caffeine or one of the other contents?

My question still remains for you and everyone else, has anyone tried phenibut? I’ve heard it’s a great compound to mellow one out for a period, almost like an XTC high without the crash.

I think it was the interaction with the xanthines in the energy drink (i.e. caffeine) that brought on your bad buzz with the sulbut. Let us know how you go with taking sulbut on its own.

I tried phenibut about 2 years ago - bought a little bulk container from BN. It’s a pretty good relaxant and yes it’s useful for mellowing out. It gives a nice sweet feeling, althought I wouldn’t compare it to an XTC high (from my experience anyway).

Well tonight I took 300mg of sulbut. 30 minutes later(right before my workout) I added a Spark packet to my BCAA’s for flavor and I think that has something like 80mg of caffeine in it but the workout was good. No terrible bad buzz like last time, so I think I can attribute that experience to the first high dose. I’ll be sticking with 300mg from now on.

Is there anything you would compare phenibut with? Do you consider it worth buying?

Regarding my melatonin post, I copied and pasted part of the wrong article. I fixed my post, which is on page 12. It really is worth a read. Sorry about those of you who wasted your time on my last attempt.

I’m on my 4th day of vinpocetine, taking 10mg a day. I think it may be having a bad effect with my Nasacort AQ, as I take it in morning. Kind of makes me feel out of it, like my head is congested. Will try spacing them out tomorrow

Also phenibut sounds interesting, if anyone else has had any experience with it please share :slight_smile:

Ummm…I can’t really compare phenibut with anything because I’ve always been more of a ‘stimulant’ type person and haven’t really tried other relaxants, apart from low doses of Xanax or the occasional spliff.

I’d say that it is definitely worth trying. It doesn’t cost much and the smallest sized tub will last you over a month. If I remember it was about 30grams for $30.

12mg nicotine (lozenges)

[/quote]

Holy man. 12mg nicotine is a lot. Are you taking it for anxiety reasons or does it have cognitive benefits? I just found a source so cheap for nicotine gum that I ordered a couple packs for no reason.

12mg nicotine isn’t that much is it? That’s what an average strength cigarette contains. Full strength ones contain 16mg, then 12mg, 8mg, 4mg, 2mg, and so forth.

I know a teaspoon full can kill a man - it is basically a poison so it’s best not to dose too high.

hey guys, best thread ever!!!

I’m taking this supp, what do you think ? It’s called MENTAT : exts.: Bacopa monnieri 136 mg, Centella asiatica 70 mg, Withania somnifera 52 mg, Evolvulus alsinoides 52 mg, Nardostachys jatamansi 52 mg, Valeriana wallichii 50 mg, Embelia ribes 50 mg, Prunus amygdalus 50 mg, Acorus calamus 42 mg, Tinospora cordifolia 36 mg, Terminalia Chebula 36 mg, Emblica officinalis 36 mg, Celastrus paniculatus 32 mg, Oroxylum indicum 32 mg.
powders: Bacopa monnieri 80 mg, Orchis mascula 18 mg, Mucuna pruriens 18 mg, Elettaria cardamomum 18 mg, Terminalia arjuna 18 mg, Foeniculum vulgare 18 mg, Ipomoea digitata 18 mg, Zingiber officinale 14 mg, Myristica fragrans 14 mg, Terminalia belerica 14 mg, Syzygium aromaticum 10 mg, Mukta pishti 3 mg.

Is it ok if i take it with vinpo and piracetam ? Here is the link where i found it . It’s dirt cheap.

You’re thinking of tar. Cigarettes have between 4-15mg of tar, and between .1-1.5mg nicotine.

Haha yes, and I read somewhere that not all of the paltry 1mg in a cigarette even gets into the system.

I’m using it alongside a boatload of other stimulants because I’ve got exams at the moment. Not sure if it’s a nootropic per se but it certainly helps to keep me awake.

Interestingly, I don’t think nicotine helps with anxiety. Whenever I smoke a cigarette (rare) I notice an anxiolytic effect, but I think this has more to do with all the other crap in there. Nicotine lozenges just get me wired (and alter visual perception at high doses).

Dave

TG would you be so kind as to divulge the source for your cheap nicotine gum? I could really use some but it’s generally pretty expensive.

Also greatest thread ever, it has gotten me to join the ranks of posters and leave my lurking ways behind.

I haven’t received my order yet, but customer service was great. I’m sure it will get through as I didn’t order anything scheduled.

They also have very good prices on albuterol.

Anyone have any good sources for the noortropics? I’ve found good deals on various sites, but usually only one item per site. I need to combine shipping.

Another thing:

Has anyone used Depreynl/Selegine?

A lot of people over at imminst.org seem to be fans of it, but I tried the AG-guys stuff (insanely high price), and I did not notice a thing. Studies have come out saying it is useful in ADHD treatment, and I am looking for something that will help with that, without starting on ritalin/adderal.

Okay I just got my Centrophenoxine(500mg) and Aniracetam(750mg).
Heart rate is slightly elevated, little bit of cottonmouth,head seems a little extra focused and tingly, yet irratible,
and I have not even popped the pills yet! Ha HA.

Anyways, dosage question. How do you take this stuff. I have asked before but need to clarify better. For example the bottle says to take with food, but I always read how you guys take half at one time and more right before a class, and more late at night etc. I believe Ani is fat soluble, which means it can be stored in your body, but does that mean I have to take with some type of fat like fish oil?

mine; Vinpo, Ani and Centro.
If I have to take a drug test for work is this stuff going to show ?
How do yo pronounce ‘Nootropics’.

Thanks for the info.

If memory serves correct, nicotine improves concentration and memory tasks. It is considered a nootropic by a lot of people.

It may also protect against Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.

UGH, I really, really, really want to get my hands on some Modafinil.

Sucks I can’t even go to the doc to try to get a scrip as I currently have no health insurance haha.
