Nootropics - waste of money/time ? - AlphaBanana - 08-25-2019
Fallon's latest 2 videos made me think about nootropics in general.
I do not say that it is a waste of money or time as it really can help you a little bit. Of course some people expect too much and then they are disappointed but still nootropics like Modafinil, Phenypiracetam, L-Theanin, Magnesium Glycinate and Phenibute are really worth every penny.
If you tried nootropics and they don't work, don't trow them away, just give it to a friend , or like me to a client. Like at the moment I give some of my clients a nice "booster" which is 100mg of Phenyl Piracetam with 750mg of Oxiracetam (Oxi didn't really work for me). They are very happy about it lately they insist 2 to 3 times per week to take that booster, of course they also pay for that.
But coming back to nootropics: there is no quick fix in life. You have to work hard but 200mg of Modafinil can make it a little bit easier for you if you know what I mean
Dave Asprey was 8 years on Modafinil and he confirmed that without taking it he wouldn't beeing able to run his businesses.
For me I keep taking Modafinil once a week for a long day, I keep taking Phenibut on Saturday to have a deep sleep and sex is also better with it and I keep taking Magnesium with L-Theanine before I go to bed during the week.

Yes there are some that work for sure. Modafinil and Phenylpiracetam are solid Nootropics and I continue to take those. It's easy to get caught in the trap of always wanting to find the next thing, instead of just sticking to the stuff that works.
In the vid I recommended trying Piracetam, Modafinil, Phenylpiracetam, and L-Theanine. If those don't work on some level most people should probably just stop wasting time and money, maybe put that money into getting their blood tested for vitamin/mineral deficiencies or start buying higher quality foods.
