Vendors also avid users of their products?

It may have been addressed in the past, but searching didn't show me anything. I am a paranoid individual, a lot of us are. We have a great group of mods, many of which are also key and trusted vendors that we go to. I'm just curious, which of the vendors are also avid users of their own products?

Awesome input. Thank you. It's comforting to hear that the vendors we goto are managed by those who believe in and use their own products. I don't think I would be too supportive of a company that sold nootropics, but wasn't interested in nootropics for their own personal utility.
My last inquiry, and since the mods/vendors are here you can probably answer best. Why is it that some of the vendor sites state that these items are not for consumption, then other vendors freely market their products as nootropics for consumption. Now I know why you would say that they are not for consumption. Sold for research, FDA shielding...I get that. But with many of these nootropics, they are not "blacklisted" by the FDA so-to-speak. So why the grey area? Just curious why there seems to be a difference in continuity across the board for vendors of nootropics.

We have to balance the risk of FDA involvement. Some things are analogs of schedule 4 substances, like adrafinil. It's best to be safe. Some vendors are more cautious than others.
