Hi Roweski,
Hi Roweski,
I sell crack for a living. How else could someone make millions in 10-15 minutes? Just kidding of course. Like many people I am seriously overworked and underpaid. I don’t make millions, but I have to make multi-million dollar decisions for the companies that I inspect. I am basically a food inspector. I (and others in my field of work), make sure that America’s food supply is safe. An example of the kind of work I do can be seen in recent news (meat recall anyone?). Thankfully I was not involved in that particular incident, but that is the kind of decision that I have to make on a daily basis.
Anywho, back to the topic at hand. It is very important to me that my brain is functioning at a “higher level”. I am always looking for a small edge in the constant mental games I have to play in my job. Many people try to hide things from us when we come in to inspect a place. I need to be very observant.
Also I need to be able to recall very long and dry regulations off of the top of my head. I often times need to explain line and verse, why something is illegal, or unsanitary. Most people or companies don’t respond unless there is fear of penalty or fine.
Thanks for the advice on Racetams. I will further research the Prami- and Ani- versions. Hopefully the Prami- is not too expensive. Crack sales are down this month 
Peace,
D3HT09:
Regarding your question about the racetams, my vote is for pramiracetam. I wrote a brief note about it a few pages back on the thread. While it is not especially insightful or descriptive I’ll copy it below for you. Pramiracetam is readily available from reputable overseas companies and it isn’t that expensive, especially for a crack-dealing kingpin. As oxiracetam seems to induce drowsiness after its brain blitzkrieg is over it may not be the best thing for an inspector. Pramiracetam keeps the mind clear and sharp without the crash. Definitely worth a look.
Here’s what I wrote before:
Pramiracetam is an excellent nootropic. I find it more subtle than either ani- or oxiracetam, and more consistently effective. While ani & oxi both felt stimulating at first, their results seem to decline over time. Pram is less dramatically discernible, but conveys a pleasant, calm lucidity.
Generally I take 300 mg of pram each day, divided into 2 doses of 150 mg each. Separating the doses by about 5 or so hours provides a steady stream of potent nootropics.

Hey Johnny Blaze how is the adrafanil going(any sides, when did you take it and do you think it works etc.) and where did you get it.
Thanks, for any help.
If you can, try to get modafinil. It’s a lot cleaner, and the side effects are slim to none compared to adrafanil. Adranafil, you need to cycle off and cannot take for long periods of time. Modafinil doesn’t.
Modafinil is just a better analog of adrafanil. Works the same or better, with less side effects.

Don’t know if anyone’s mentioned it yet but Moda is a scheduled drug in the USA while Adra has yet to be classified by the USDA. Inotherwords it’s still legal to import.

I just read this entire thread. I read a book about nootropics over 10 years ago and kind of forgot about the whole subject because I was a poor college kid and the stuff was not easily found.
I went to the local vitamin store today and found some Vinpo and Huperzine so I bought them. I am planning on trying some other things too but I have a couple of questions.
bushido, I am hoping you can answer (and anyone else who is knowledgeable). You mentioned you like combining ani and oxi but I do not recall you stating how much of each to take and when.
Do you still spread the oxi consumption out over time or does the addition of ani make this process unnecessary?
Are you familiar with pramiracetam, which has found its’ way into the thread recently, and if so would it be a better choice over ani or oxi?
What about piracetam? Is there any reason to add that or isn’t it very similar to oxi? I know that ani is the fat soluble one.
Some have mentioned taking choline with the racetams, which type, how much and when is what I did not find.
The centro is very exciting to learn about because I did a whole lot of recreational stuff in my 20’s.
I have more questions but I will stop here and hope I get some help, thanks. Oh yeah, I should mention I am 35 and finished school along time ago so I do not have any exams to study for, no cram sessions to get medicated for. I am more like the food inspector, I am hoping to become “sharper” and “clearer” throughout the day.
Thanks to all who have shared on this thread.
Very interesting thread. I’ve just started studying (as well as full-time work) and stumbled onto this thread and am very curious.
I’ve only got 5 pages into it, but basically Vinpocetine is a supp without any known side-effects and has positive results for brain function and is the first thing one should try?
I’m currently taking:
Flameout - 4 caps daily.
Creatine - 5mg daily.
Whey.
Diet is in check with calories coming from 40/40/20 fat/pro/carbs. Meat, veges, fruits, nuts.
For the price Vinpocetine looks pretty sweet (month’s supply is about 3 cups of coffee at a cafe).
The questions:
So if I were to try only one thing it should be Vinpocetine @ 3 x 10mg doses per day (starting @ 5mg first day and working up to the 30mg daily total adding 5mg each day)?
Vinpocetine is legal to import into Australia?
Thank you for your time.
Hey y’all,
I am 15 and was looking through this thread and was wondering a few things.
First, of course, am I too young to be taking them? I’ve seen this question a few times before, but seems never to have been answered.
Also, if I can take them that is, what would the best stack be.
I’m going to be 4 AP classes, and two of them are the hardest ones according to the teachers (Chemistry and Psychology), plus Spanish and European history. Also, I am working on a couple languages on the side, so I figure nootropics could help with that also. Thanks to mostly slacking off in history I need to read and memorize the majority of 700 pages by May 9, while keeping up in all my other classes.
Thanks,
Matt
Here we go again:
Vinpo
++ Pramiracetam ++ / Oxiracetam / Aniracetam
Brain Octane (which has choline)
Adrafinil / Moda (If you can find them)
Huperzine
Hydergine (Don’t use when taking vinpo / maybe use with vinpo, but slowly at first and in small amounts)
Glutamine
GABA (Some people love it.)
Power Drive (Not so much.)

That’s a shame… Sounded right up my street.
What would you reccomend for motivation? Moda’s great when i’m in a task i want to be doing, i’m focused and sharp. But i just feel like i need something to get me geared up at the moment…
[I’m putting off a good fifty hours worth of coursework as i write this, due in, in about three weeks. Yes, i am a shit hot procrastinator.]
Any thoughts?
Dude, you’re asking ME? Hahahahahaha! I spend far more time on this site than I should. FAR more time.
I can procrastinate with the best of them

Procrastination is nature’s amphetamine. I’ve always tended to procrastinate because when I’m down to the wire and under intense pressure I’m so charged with adrenaline that my productivity is through the roof. Obviously it’s not always the optimal strategy, but it’s fun when it works.
bushido, I am not sure what you meant here,
Some have mentioned taking choline with the racetams, which type, how much and when is what I did not find.
Choline citrate or bitartrate. I use citrate. Seems OK, but not as good as ensuring you get quality deep sleep with somethinglike ZMA, melatonin and 5HTP.
bushy,
wondering about the 5-htp?
I have some, but was reading more in depth and found that it may actually have some really bad sides?
Mine is coupled with vit. b6.
What do you think?
is it more of a mood enhancer or a sleepy time pill?
what do you guys feel you should never mix?
is it ok to take these nootropics with stuff like HOT-ROX, and cAMPH, or Carbolin 19 and Power Drive? or will it be an overload?
