Just a reminder that not everything labelled nootropic has been demonstrated safe in humans, despite it being available to buy from NSN.

Well, if it's correctly labeled as a nootropic
But how can you know that? Given the definition, it can only be labeled 'nootropic' after the safety studies have been done and come back clean...

Read through the papers I linked here:
There are multiple studies showing a complete lack of toxicity. Just because phase 3 human trials have not happened does not mean we don't know if it's toxic or not. Most of the nootropics we take have not undergone phase 3 human trials.
