Noopept in hot beverages?
Original post in this thread

I'm just wondering if anyone knows how well Noopept holds up in a hot beverage like coffee. I know that sublingual bioavailability is better, but from what I've heard, Noopept's oral bioavailability is still respectable. My question is whether or not the heat of the coffee would denature the peptide. Does anyone know?

I would disagree, the flash point to noopept is 284.8 degrees celsius, I would see no reason it would break down at 100 C which is the max anyone is likely to have their coffee. You are correct that the digestive enzymes breaking it down but there are protiens in the gut which cleave peptides. So any orally ingested noopept is wasting a lot of noopept, but no more so due to a hot beverage then a cold one.

Yeah, that was just an off the cuff statement because I could not remember the flash point of noopept off the top of my head. Sometimes I am lazy ;-). The enzymes are the real issue.
