N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) Read before supplementing

patrick35 said:
ok new to this forum but I've taken DAA for 30 days and now pretty close to completing first bottle of NMDA. So i read this thread and am still confused. is it safe, not safe, toxic, not toxic? am i just better off taking DAA ? I'll tell you where Im leaning after reading all this; back to DAA.

If you have tried both and one works better for you, I would go with that one :)
 
Intimidate SRT has gotten rave reviews from day one and will continue to do so! NMDA + a potent AI = win!

This should be good. Something akin to a group of 9 year olds discussing the intricacies of quantum physics while hopped up on candy.

Guffaw! Nearly did a spit take on the keyboard.

I tend to side with Coop on this. You're not likely to achieve blood levels of DAA or NMDA that will be excitotoxic. Delving into anecdotal land, I think you'd crap yourself silly trying to mega dose DAA and if excitotoxic effects were happening, they would likely be evident with some sort of symptom...either physically expressed or a decline in mental function. DAA has been on the shelves for awhile now.

I most certainly pay attention to the anecdotal since 99% of the supplements we use in this community are nowhere near what I would call "rigorously studied". We are simply too impatient to wait a lifetime until all the results are in..which is bad, but then the safety record of most supplements is pretty darn good.

One of the key things I found most interesting was this:

"
When I first started researching NMDA, I was considering marketing it as a nutritional supplement. After delving in deeper however, a couple of things made me change my mind. First of all, I contacted the patent inventor to see if I could get some more information on NMDA. He regretfully told me that his later research failed to confirm his earlier findings, and that he had deemed the project not worthy of further pursuit. I also discovered that NMDA is potentially quite toxic and may destroy neurons in sensitive areas of the brain like the hippocampus and the basal ganglia. NMDA might also have the capacity to induce convulsions in susceptible individuals.
"


but the whole piece is worth reading. Let me know what you guys think!​

I hear people talk about monosodium glutamate as an excitoxin too, yet people eat a chinabuffets and are fine
 
tl;dr

I will co-sign whatever the man with a PhD in neuroscience and is currently active in the field, says about it ;)

lol, you took the words out of my mouth.

Every time I see him post in a thread like this I have to click on it.

Side note: I ordered some ammonium dichromate which I will be setting on fire. Are the fumes gonna kill me and those around me?

Fun! Nah, it's a carcinogen, so don't put it in a pipe, but it won't kill you if you're using it for pyrotechnics. Is this for a class or just for fun?
 
Quality fun time with my kid ;)

i wasn't responding to Patrick, which is why I didn't quote him. I was merely commenting on the effectiveness of NMDA, which is a large portion of what this thread is about.

Not really, it was more so a discussion on possible toxicity from oral NMDA rather than the effectiveness but by all means plug away.

when are you dosing, looks like a solid night time supplement, nmda is really good for sleep, with a small amount of agmatine before bed, should sleep like a baby
 
ill be dosing 12pm, 5pm, 9pm id imagine, going to bed at 11pm, Im very sensitive to supps near bed time, i sleep awful so dont want to take it just before bed, but 2 hours before should be fien right?

i know when i dealt with intimidate, people mentioned if they took nmda and didn't go straight to sleep that it sometimes affected their sleep

with test boost i've been dosing at 5:30p.m., and at like 9 or 10pm i get really tired and have no problem falling asleep at 11pm

right okay, may take my third dose as im climbing into bed.

How come not earlier in the day? you want it to always be in your system so splitting up the doses so it spreads through the day is ideal

could probably be used that way....my only two experiences were intimidate which was 1 cap and test boost which is a small scoop of powder, i never dosed them in the morning for fear of getting groggy at work, i can't have that

I have 2 scoops of alphamine upon waking, no grogginess is touching me! haha

having said that I may switch my dose to 5.30pm,7pm & before bed, for pre/post/bed timing
 
I have read some things showing it could effect depression. Not sure if that is "safe" or not but something to consider.
 
Guys,

can anyone please tell me when the best time to supplement NMDA is in conjunction with getting better sleep, if my doses are 1 cap 3 times a day?

I wake at 8am and go to bed at 11pm, thanks

also, regarding toxicity, I supplement agmatine with NMDA, is that okay? I dont take creatine
