Topic: I'm building a Nootropics stack, any advice?
Anonymous A started this discussion 12 years ago #34,440
I'm starting off with the essentials: L-theanine, piracetam, choline, and some vitamins.

> any advice
Take a multivitamin, some fish oil, and be sure you're drinking enough water every day. I track my water intake, and for a week or more it was hard to drink enough everyday. Now I can't seem to get enough. I'm unaware of any evidence proving Nootropics is anything more than a placebo. In face most vitamins have proven to be largely ineffective. In most cases your body only takes what it needs (D, E, K and A being exceptions, too much A will straight up kill you).
There's been some good studies about which vitamins are actually effective. I used to have a vitamin chart that explained effectiveness really well. If I find it I'll post it.
