As some of you may know, TLR has been selling proprietary compounds and extracts since they launched. That led a lot of people, including myself, to call them out on the practice. Who in their right mind would take something that they did not know the ingredients or chemical structure of?!? We also questioned their testing practices, which led to the owner telling customers that they did not need testing, and that people should just trust them. Again, more red flags. Then we had the owner threatening to sue us moderators for slander, libel, and defamation. There are other crazy things that people have made me aware of via private message. However, we will not get into that at the moment. Needless to say, I have been interested in testing their products for a while, and have been organizing to do just that. Today, we have those results.
Again, a big thanks to Nootropics Depot, for use of their lab in this testing.
Let's start with the most alarming results. Four of TLR's "proprietary" compounds have tested as Taurine powder. That's right, TLR has been selling ADJ01, MORP-OX, HDAC-OX, and ADDX-OX as proprietary compounds, yet they are just Taurine powder! They are touting their AD…

Any word what the B-Androstenetriol is? This one definitely feels like it totally obliterates the feeling of stress or anxiety. But IDK if it's okay long term. It appears to be a white powder.
The only thing I got from them which you also tested was HCBT-OX and I also got resinous black chunks. The product page explains you have to dissolve it in alcohol and take drops (I used vodka). It feels like it's doing something similar to noopept's holistic balancing without noopept's stimulation.
On the page for it, it says:
Source: Proprietary guided extraction from proprietary developed strain within the Withania genus.
This I thought to be ashwagandha but maybe Shalijit as you said they're related?
However they seem to be the only vendor with JDTic. Is this real?
Like I want to dually give everyone credit and reprimand them - they have products nobody else does, and world-saving ones at that like JDTic or NSI. But, taurine in place of all those others is unacceptable. So do we not buy the confirmed NSI if they're the only NSI vendor, because their other products are fud? (edit: they pulled NSI).
I wonder if they knew what fake substitutions they made and knew they were harmless; different from CH selling DPH as 700mg dosage noots which is intentionally harmful. It depends if they were aware of what their products are. If the sellers are the ones claiming it is X, it is the…

We did not test the B-Androstenetriol. Most people say the HCBT-OX is psychoactive. Some have been saying it is monoaminergic, while others like you are saying more nootropic. It might vary.
The JDTic might be real. We did not get a sample of that. The NSI was real.
