No effect from most nootropics

Hi there,
I have been experiencing with nootropics and various substances for about a year and got mostly no effects.
-Piracetam. Oxiracetam, Aniracetam : no effect at all. Been using them for at least 2 weeks each at proper doses. Currently using Prami.
-Noopept : I am on it right now, I use powder form and not quite sure about dosing, althought I definately have taken much more than it is recommended. Tried both oral and sublingual administration, with or without food.
-Theanine with caffeine : I get effects from caffeine alone (who doesn't?) but got no effect from adding theanine. Shame, so many godlike reviews.
-Centrophenoxine (better version of DMAE), sulbutiamine, mucuna pruriens : No effects expect that sulb makes me a bit serious and I get angry easy.
The only substances I get effects are PEA and hordenine.
I am not sure why is this happening. Maybe it's my age (I'm 21) but not sure.
EDIT : I just remembered that I also had very good results with SNS focus xt http://www.seriousnutritionsolutions.com/products/core/Focus-XT.php
Could it be the huperzine or vipocetine?

I heard the racetams increase the permeability of the blood-brain barrier. Does anybody know if this is true?

I have not seen any evidence that it's true.
