    Supplements to improve motivation/mood etc?

    I gotcha! Thanks for taking the time to go back and forth with me until we both knew what the other person was trying to say haha.

    Supplements to improve motivation/mood etc?

    I originally brought CEE up saying that NALT isn't as bad of a l-tyrosine alternative as CEE was to monohydrate in a response to Mike weighing in on the topic. It was, if anything, my admitting that NALT isn't terrible. It was more meant as a joke than anything, but I see how it could have been...

    Wasn't CEE also originally touted as being superior to monohydrate due to increased solubility? Of course I'm not saying NALT is to l-tyrosine as CEE is to creatine monohydrate, only that I don't know if I'd place the theory behind improved solubility leading to greater bioavailability and...

    Supplements to improve motivation/mood etc?

    Thanks for elaborating! And I'm sincerely glad that it sounds like you're in a better place now. As much as we all love our supplements, I think we can all agree that they're just that, supplements, and they should ideally supplement a balanced and healthy lifestyle and attitude, not attempt to...

    Supplements to improve motivation/mood etc?

    What doses did you use for them both? You've tried both of them alone, or changing one to the other being the only variable being tweaked in your supplement use at the time?

    At least it's not as bad of an alternative as CEE was to creatine monohydrate.

    Supplements to improve motivation/mood etc?

    True, we can't say with absolute certainty that NALT is inferior to plain old l-tyrosine. But the reasoning behind the conclusions discussed seems solid, and the actual studies showing the benefits we actually want from the supplement are all done with reasonable and viable doses of l-tyrosine...

    I'm pretty sure N-Acetyl Tyrosine (NALT) is inferior to plain old l-tyrosine. https://hightowerpharmacology.blogspot.com/2012/12/pharmacology-of-n-acetyl-l-tyrosine.html Not to mention that, IIRC, every study that used tyrosine showing cognative/fatigue/etc. benefits in humans used l-tyrosine...

    Focus drugs /// nootropics help experts

    Not much has changed in my recommendations in the last few years, so here’s my general recommendation options, broken down into a few aspects/goals/purposes. It’s probably best to start with 1-2 “stacks” to see how they treat you instead of just throwing the kitchen sink at it and taking...

    Signed back in for the first time in AGES. How's everyone been? Life got pretty crazy for a while on my end. I should jump back into things here if/when I have some down time.

    Donald Trump running for president

    When have I ever given the impression that I agree with Larry King or value his opinion? Also no. Just because the majority of power is held by white people doesn’t mean an individual or group of black people can’t have an advantage over an individual white person or a group of white people...

    Yeah, then I would say there’s a valid argument to be made for the baker. I am not exactly aware of all the nuances and intricacies of the case either, so I guess I can just speak on the general scenario we seem to be discussing and assuming to be the case. I try to be consistent you know...

    If you read my most recent comment to Ricky, I think that a private company should be able to refuse to engage in or condone an activity that violates their morals/conscience/etc., but not able to refuse service or products in general to a person or group because they don't agree with something...

    Donald Trump running for president

    Yeah, I could see why a major supermarket chain would try to stay as inoffensive as possible on either side. I can also see why a store of any size may not want a "normal" worker (as in a non-owner, or at least a non-manager) to make the decision to accept or deny a controversial cake on either...

    The Christian baker doesn’t want to participate AT ALL in anything involving in something that they feel violates their conscience. It’s not about legal ramifications or public notoriety, it’s about them not wanting to be a part of something they consider to be sin, even if nobody besides them...
