i have never had a great memory, but in the last few years i've noticed it getting worse. anyone know of a good supp. for memory that doesn't cost $50.00 a bottle or more? anyone use anything for memory?
LMAO:laugh:I forgot what I was going to say.
If you go the racetam route, be advised that the effects downgrade if time off is not taken.piracetam + choline citrate or AGPC. that stack is extremely cheap and most people find it effective for boosting memory.
or, if you can get one, pramiracetam/aniracetam, but those are a little more costly. sulbutiamine might, and i emphasize, MIGHT help.
Piracetam+ginko+choline source is a super stack for memory, IMO. I'm a college student and I run this all the time. I've found it to be very powerful for boosting my recall abilities.
Um, with all do respect to your nutrition major, I believe you may be misinformed. Even creatine has been shown to clinically enhance memory. I am not able to give links yet, but i can show you where to find the study, done by the University of Sydney, Australia.Nutrition major speaking here...
There no food or supplement that is clinically proven to provide increased memory or brain function. I can provide support from clinical studies if anyone is truly interested. Ginko biloba is especially contradicted (marketing for supplements is NOT regulated by FDA; supplements in general are not regulated by FDA either)
Brain memory is a function of concentrating. Not how much a supplement causes you to think.
Sorry for the bad news.
Now foods makes a version with choline in it as well. think i'm give that a go.to the OP, please look into phosphatidylserine. This has helped me greatly with my short term memory as well as with recovery from workouts. A true 2 in 1 type product. The one I purchase is made by Source Naturals.
1gr. huh, the one i looked at only has 100mgs. huh, gonna google this whole Phosphatidylserine thing......thx again thoughRegardless of what company you use, just make sure that it's a decent dosage when taken. im currently taking 1g (1000mg) in total by way of 1 pill x twice daily.

Sorry guys. I just went on the site and didn't notice the same offer. Put out a couple calls and that offer is expired. However, someone on this board should go out on a limb and get a tub. You wouldn't regret it.
Sorry bro, but that supplement is wayyyyy too over priced. The most I would be willing to pay for it is between $30-$40. The ingredients are pretty standard and you can easily build your own for much much less. I am glad it works for you, but it's perhaps because you have done enough damage to your brain and you lead a stressfull life.Neuro 1
I am a performance trainer to Michael Guasch, a professional formula 1 car driver. He works across the street from Bill Romanowski and I train them together out in Benicia, California. While training Bill he kept bringing up his supplement line (Nutrition 53) and he gave me a few samples and I was blown away. I never really rave about supps but hearing him talk about his formula and company standards made me optimistic enough to give it a shot and I'm so glad I did.
So, go to nutrition53.com. And if MY memory serves me well then you can get a tub of it for free...of course you pay the 8 bucks or what not for shipping. Just make sure to call back in about 20days and tell them to not send you anymore (unless you opt to pay the $80 a month for it) and you're home free. This stuff is great and worth the money. Lots of stars take it and ha....even mr john mccain uses it daily!
Good call bro...Licithin Granules is a good source. Mix it with your protein and you are good to go.Another cheap nootropic to add to your list is lecithin. It is a great source of phosphatidyl choline and inositol.
But of course. All 3 derivatives have pretty much the same pharmaco-K, but ani is more than double the potency of either of the other two.aniracetam appears to be the favorite of our customers versus piracetam and oxiracetam....there was a problem with supply issues recently but we have now gotten a shipment of aniracetam (one of the very few) at dealsinbulk
That is very surprising to me. I'm not calling you a liar by any means...but phosphatidylserine has worked very well for me in this respect and that is one study not linked to any sales for anyone.I took phoshatidyl-serine as a personal experiment while I was dieting for a show. At 150mg a day, I did not see an enhancement in memory. I barely remember how I cut the last week before the show.
I am really surprised to hear you believe in studies! There are many supp companies that brag of their studies and utterly suck...I am sure you can think of a few.Guys I don't believe anyone's personal experiences of taking products due to the placebo effect. I want to see a clinical trial containing a jadad score of 4 or better that supports a memory enhancement supplement and I’ll change my mind about memory enhancement supplements.
Granted, there has been studies that state there may be a correlation between improvement due to supplementation, but the correlation is weak. Significant, silver-bullet studies have not been reported.
Ironaddict, what's the jadad on that Australian study? Also, I'm not going to believe an article posted on piracetam.com which is linked to a supplement selling company.... Obviously they will state positive results from their supplements, they're selling the product. Power of the internet is weak at times because companies try to sell their product.
I am interested to see a clinical trial from a medical database supporting supplementation of phosphatidyl-serine, ginko biloba(any part of the plant), inositol, or choline. I don't mind if I am proven wrong. I like to learn about new information based on legitimate, clinical trails. I think I can speak for everyone; I would rather not waste my money on supplements if they don’t work.
The general consensus from my professors was that "no supplement can be taken to enhance memory." I believe University of Florida hires extremely knowledgeable professors.

There are also different phosphatides which the serine could be bonded to.That is very surprising to me. I'm not calling you a liar by any means...but phosphatidylserine has worked very well for me in this respect and that is one study not linked to any sales for anyone.
Maybe because you use 150mg a day and I am using 1000mg a day. Please also remember that not all supplement companies are created equal. I've used a product from one company and gotten zero results and then the same product by another company with a great deal of change.
just saw a triple strength version made by Now foods, a company i trust. think i'll give it a try for 3 of 4 months and see what happens. thxAnother cheap nootropic to add to your list is lecithin. It is a great source of phosphatidyl choline and inositol.
I honestly feel thats the problem here. For memory, as well as an added bonus of excelerated recovery in my muscles, 1000mg of PS daily has been phenomenal.but i believe the PS is under dosed
At the very least, it also provides for various other health benefits as well. IMO, an underlooked supplement.just saw a triple strength version made by Now foods, a company i trust. think i'll give it a try for 3 of 4 months and see what happens. thx
