macro - you're free to post the feedback from the email i sent you a while back. don't know what i did with that thing... (obviously strip out my contact nfo )
Originally emailed by DaMan Neurogenex: On day 5 so far. Other stack has been 3200mg Piracetam,
(down to) 4.5mg Hydergine, 400mg DMAE, 1g Choline. Have been taking
that stack for ca. 3 weeks now. Taking 2 Neuro AM, 2 PM. No
suggestions yet (well, one, add more vinpo) so my observations:
-The first day I felt an eerie inner calm. I could think straight and
uninhibited. FYI I have a mild case of EDD. That feeling was
incredible.
-The second and subsequent days I started going on a low-carb diet.
Definitely dumbed me down, and the neuros were not as potent as usual.
I have had several "stupid days" since then...
-Memory is WAY up. Even after the lowcarbing. Nothing feelable, but
when I filed an insurance claim and the lady read my my 8-digit claim
number I was able to remember it an hour later without having written it
down or repeatedly said it out loud. I usually can't do that I can
also remember people's faces - even from LONG time ago - MUCH clearer.
-No improvement in visual acuity whatsoever. I'm really nearsighted,
may have something to do with it.
-I've been "tripping up" lately... having harder time figuring out tips
at dinner and doing mental arithmetic. Dunno whether to attribute it to
lowcarb or OD on Neuros but a bit disappointed in that respect. Will
re-evaluate after a week. I'm pretty experienced w/ keto diets so I
dunno if that's it.
answer: yes it is very likely the low carb- ketones are not good fuel for the brain, particularly if "revved up".-- glucose is the preferred fuel and if brain is running at high.. then more fuel is needed (ketones just dont cut it)
Very interested to see what your experience will be with the product, Frack, as someone else who's not hurting for braincells. :smart: :iq: :schwiiiing: I noticed a difference literally the second day, two weeks should be more than sufficient to ascertain whether it's of benefit.
2 week is enough to get an initial idea of the short term effects, so you should definitely notice them. the long term upregulation and impacts tend to take, as you might guess , longer...
