Original post in this thread

Apologies if this has been posted before. I did do a brief search before making this post however and coulden't find anything.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Himalaya-Herbals-Brahmi-180-Caps-Bacopa-Monnieri-Improves-Memory-Mental-Ability-/181231997995?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2a3244d42b

Seems alot cheaper and the seller has good ratings. Doesent have any other information about mg but other sellers selling the same brand say 250mg?

Thanks

Himalaya were rude to me, and just started ignoring me, when I asked for heavy metal/purity testing on their Bacopa. We eventually tested their stuff, and it was below limits, but higher than Bacognize. However, the way they treated me when I contacted them means I will not use any of their products again.

Then I would suggest attacking it from a more natural approach. Supplement L-phenylalanine for dopamine, and tryptophan for serotonin. You can have some NALT around for short term boosts of dopamine, as I find that to be

Bacopa, Rhodiola Rosea, Saint John's Wort, etc. All those are adaptogens, and actually lead to reverse-tolerance. They get more effective over time.
