I just feel bad for the ones that paid the full price for this stuff cause it's not very potent at all. I'm going to give syntrax celebro a try after this.
Honestly, don't bother with the cerebro. Its not even in the same league as CE in effectiveness. Just wait till the new stuff comes out...

My net connection was down most of the day, so I'm posting late.
Excellent results so far, took my first dose about 4 PM yesterday, and went to bed about 12:30AM. I didn't feel like I needed sleep, yet I didn't have any problems going to sleep. I awoke at 6:45 AM feeling fine. I took 5 tabs CE with 12 oz diet Dr. Pepper and 2.5 grams of piracetam around a half hour later. I felt sharp all day, and in the afternoon I took another 5 tabs of CE with another can of diet Dr. Pepper, and then an hour later I played a game of chess. It was one of my best games in a long time. I sacrificed a queen for 2 minor pieces and it took 9 more moves to get my opponent in a position where he had to resign. I looked over the game afterwards and couldn't see anywere for him to improve after my sacrifice.
The chess games are just a test of sorts, what I really need to do is learn whole new profession in the next few months. The CE will help.

Dsade,
I sent in to Millennium last week for their samples and received them today inluding:
2 doses of Cordygen5
1dose of citruvol
1 dose of Carnage
1 Ragnarak
1 shred
+ a coupon from them
I figure your formula will probably be different but similar in some respects to Cordygen5 with some add ons?

Yep....this was the original, intended market. Too bad some things went wrong with original negotiations.

Actually yes Clear Edge is a great replacement for caffiene. Im doing an expirement on my body right now, doing 125 mgs a day of caffiene,I also take three grams of alcar daily then I plan to go to clear edge.
I plan to stop the alcar and caffiene and just see how clear edge works. I havnt took caffiene in a while.Im testing caffiene , a mild dose,to see what if it is true id caffiene is or isnt good for musclebuilding, cortisol release , and creatine loading. I will excess after a month. Honestly I like the No Caffiene feeling better so far since Ive started Caffiene in the past couple days.
smeton,
I've been cheating some so far with the diet soda (Dr. Pepper again today), but I've been feeling good. I added 6 grams of taurine and a gram of alcar to todays mix. I'm going to go without the caffeine the next couple of days.

Dsade or Sam,
Is this stuff really sold out or what?
Says it's "red" in the cart - but doesn't say "sold out" per se - like normal (below the price).

Nope, the body adjusts, and I've used large doses taurine for a while now. Great for keeping BP within normal range.

Thanks....it has been quite a long time since I have used Taurine in HIGH dosage. I used to do around 3 max post workout.
How long would you say it took to adjust?

dsade,
I've just started on my third kilo of taurine in a row -- so it's been about 8 months since I started, but I think it took me about 8-10 days and I may have split the dose into 2 parts at first.

Ive been using taurne for a year and a half now and I notice extreme relaxation in higher doses. I only use it postraining , the effect give me muscles and body a calming relaxation feeling. Also can be use-ful for sleep. It Balances your yin energy with the yang, so to speak.

Yep, it does feel right to take it after workout rather than before. I'd never thought it out, I just started doing that.

Its great to have a supp that could potentially replace caff to an extent. But with that, would there be similar sides when we do not use clear edge? Will there be a lack of energy and so forth? 'Withdrawal' symptoms?

Getting back to Clear Edge.... I still haven't tested it out absent of any caffeine. I had a hectic schedule this weekend as I wanted to photograph two events, and they both lasted all day -- Ice skating Saturday and gymnastics Sunday.
I have a Cannon DSLR with a fast medium telephoto and a telecoverter. I also have a Metz flash. After some practice I intend to do event photography with the camera tethered to a laptop, so I can immediately print out high-quality prints right there at the events I photograph. Also thumbnail prints will immediately be sent to a web site so that people can take their time and have order later from a lab I choose.
That's why I wanted the CE to keep me sharp. I worked with film cameras for several years a long time ago, but digital is a whole new learning curve. It's fun though. And the CE's been doing it's job quite well.

It's not that there is any kind of withdrawal, more like when you use 87 octane, switch to 93 octane, then go back to 87. It just becomes more apparent that you had been performing at a higher level.
