Original post in this thread

Hi everyone

I recently purchased 100g of what i believed to be Piracetam from Cerebral Health. After 3 days of dosing 2g in the morning i now feel what can only be described as brain damaged. I can no longer form coherent sentences, my memory is, well, ruined! I also find it hard to concentrate on anything which i found alarming so i contacted "Professor Douglas. J. Phillips", the owner of CH who i found to be not helpful whatsoever. I mean this guy flat out denied any problems with his products which is a complete lie! He asked about my diet which is fine, i also abstain from drinking alcohol albeit i was a heavy drinker in the past, and had a brief history of Cocaine use but that was years ago. I admitted this to help with Phillip's personal assessment but he stopped playing doctor by then and didn't reply.

After doing a google search on this SOB i found some alarming results:

I think you have a conflict of interest, no?

The patient should be the one contacting the FDA.

My only interest is the safety of the community. I can separate my duties as a moderator/organizer, with the duties for Ceretropic. Even so, the last time this happened, I had other moderators order and send the samples to the lab, just to eliminate statements like this. Everything done on this subreddit is talked about extensively behind the scenes with the other moderators. Everything is agreed upon as a group, and I excuse myself if it is thought to be the best course of action.

However, as I have constantly said, if someone wants to setup up and help me out with things, I am all for it. If another person in the community wants to take the time, and be the organizer and central point of contact for testing and adverse event reports, I will work with them, and pay for everything. But if the only options are for me to keep doing what I am doing, or have nobody do it, I choose to keep doing it.
