Hello from the team behind the Smart Drug Smarts podcast!
We're jumping up and down over here...
Today we release our latest labor of love into the wild — a brand-new nootropics company called Axon Labs!
(You can visit our shop at http://axonlabs.io/)
We've opened our doors with two initial products, NEXUS and MITOGEN:
NEXUS (http://axonlabs.io/products/nexus) is a cognitive stack built around Aniracetam.
It’s combined with CDP Choline, Phosphatidylserine, and Pycnogenol® to optimize its effects across an acute, cognition-sharpening experience.
You’re looking at 4-5 hours of clear, quick and creative thinking.
MITOGEN (http://axonlabs.io/products/mitogen) is a mitochondrial amplification stack that boosts your energy levels while also promoting mitochondrial biogenesis. Its six carefully-selected ingredients give body-wide effects — but some also play double-duty inside the brain, being strong cognitive enhancers, like Sulbutiamine.
It's really been an exciting few months for us — and I could go on AT LENGTH, but Jesse has already done that for us on the Smart Drug Smarts website...

R-ALA is very unstable, polymerizes at room temperature, and actually leads to lower peak plasma levels than racemic ALA. It needs to be stabilized as a sodium salt to be stable in a formula, and reach reasonable plasma levels. There are even some cool new R-ALA cyclodextrin complexes that have been investigated. However, regular R-ALA is pretty much worthless in a supplement.
