The label recommends a maximum dose of 3 caps, so I can't officially condone using more than that, but assuming you can handle the stimulant total, and since you're actually not taking more than 2 caps at one time, it wouldn't surprise me to see some people doing this, and I personally wouldn't really be too concerned with it once in a while.
I was working but I'm a mechanic and I'm damn good at what they let me do so far so I don't have to think at all. Thoughts on taking a second dose today for studying?
No it was his sweet hearts
See my previous post. Personally, I would probably go for it myself, but that's just me, and I know how I react to these ingredients. Follow the label directions though.
Haha alright taking another dose today and studying bitçhes I'll get back to you guys.See my previous post. Personally, I would probably go for it myself, but that's just me, and I know how I react to these ingredients. Follow the label directions though.
lol...I need some for debating with you!!!:laugh:
Only in banana land
Ikr why can't we have this much fun ?
too bad my tennis days are over...the best thing I ever used for sports was appnuts uncut!!! made the tennis ball look like a beach ball.
I beta tested NootropiMax months ago. My coworker and I both took some. We played ping pong at break and hit some ridiculous shots. It helped a ton. The release version is even better dosed!
very nice!!! since I can't play tennis anymore ping pong sounds good-nice suggestion, I might buy a table to put in basement!!!
Can you elaborate on how NootriiMax help you make the shots? Was it the focus from caffeine?
It's more than just the caffeine. Although caffeine has been shown to improve reaction time, the combination of caffeine and theanine has been shown to further improve reaction time. Elsewhere, caffeine and theanine has been shown to improve alertness and accuracy on an attention switching task. NootropiMax also contains l-ornithine, which is also synergistic with caffeine, so you're getting the most out of your caffeine here. Also, choline has been shown to improve visomotor performance (rapidly hitting the centers of targets) and decrease pupil size; subjects taking choline hit targets more centrally. Then there's also the more subjective/mental aspects that could come into play. Reducing stress/anxiety can help performance and calm nerves (theanine, bacopa, sceletium, etc). Sceletium can have "anxiolytic potential by attenuating subcortical threat responsivity." NootropiMax works in many ways, and has true synergy (not just a buzzword) that maximizes the benefits of each ingredient and minimizes any downsides.
Are you saying that when it wears off you're getting tired, like the crash you mentioned earlier? You mentioned it helped with studying and gaming; is it once you're done with the activities that you get tired, or a certain amount of time after taking it you get tired? About how long after taking it are you feeling tired? Going to 1 cap twice daily is a good option to try, and I actually like doing 2 caps then another 1 cap a handful to several hours later.
Yes when the caffeine is wearing off and continue the rest of the day unless I manage to fit in a nap
Ok. Like you said, try going to 1 cap and see how it treats you; some people enjoy 1 cap. That's a good starting point, and we'll take it from there. There's also a possibility that it may take a bit of time to "adjust" or get used to the product. Granted, most people do just fine right off the bat, but there have been reports on the forum of some ingredients, particularly adaptogens, that didn't seem to work well for people until a few days after regular use, then worked fine (no tired feeling etc). We'll get this sorted out, and appreciate the honest feedback.
curious to see how splitting the dose works for you...
Hopefully works good for me as the rest looks pretty and is working decently so I would love to have there be a dosing option that doesn't make me tired
absolutely...if you get decent benefits at half dose more power to ya!!! $$$$$$
Did you get the brain zaps? Feels like your neurons are getting electrocuted, nasty.
When I started I did get that but only when I started the ssri and I would describe it more as my brain felt sunburned but ya
Any idea of what may be causing the tiredness? Bocapa was my first guess but seem noopept can do the same as well. Reason why I ask is nothing I've ever tired has helped my sleep so I want to find this out and use for a sleep aid as I do have insomnia
Haha, take it 3 hours before sleep, get some good work/gaming/etc done, then sleep (not really serious). It could be the bacopa, which means perhaps you can look into picking up some standalone Bacognize to take at night, although it's worth noting that while some people do feel tired from bacopa, the majority do not, and tiredness is not a commonly reported side effect in studies with bacopa at all. Most people don't report feeling tired from Noopept either, but it is possible, as are most things. It is true that everything effects people somewhat differently, so you may have to do some trial and error and experimenting to see what works for you. We'll figure it out!
I hear you.
Noopept, stand alone, made me tired, feel a sleep for a couple of hours. I stopped taking it because sleeping during the day is not optimal, haha. It could just be a transient (side) effect, never tried long enough to make a judgment.
This is one reason why it's not a bad idea to stick with something for a little while if you can, and also potentially experiment with doses and timing. Everyone is different, and while most people handle these ingredients fine, and so do most subjects in studies, bacopa, and Noopept too if I recall correctly, tend to be taken twice per day (split dosing) in the studies, so that's always an option.
I wholehearted agree.
What was your dosing scheme today?
I see it, but I may have cheated. Does that make me smarter or dumber than if I found it myself?Lets test if rtmilburn got smarter from the nootropimax:
Find the cat!
Eeeee <-----buzzer sound
Haha, but I do use NootropiMax.
That means it works!Haha, but I do use NootropiMax.
