Caffeine question

Original post in this thread

-rumHAM · 2 points

I normally drink one cup of coffee around 9:00am (~75-100mg) each day and have been in this pattern for months now. The effects are pretty bland. Today I decided to avoid caffeine until 2pm and just had my first cup. It has had a major impact on energy levels. Just wondering if anyone here can explain the difference. I really wish I could drink coffee and get benefits like this more often.

That's because your cortisol levels are high in the AM, then drop throughout the day. When you take caffeine at the height of cortisol, the effects are not as pronounced. However, when you take caffeine later in the day, when your cortisol is lower, it has a much more pronounced stimulation effect.

Has anyone tried Excelerol? I'm interested in trying it because it is apparently one of the best nootropics out there, but I'm a bit suspicious because I've never heard anyone talk about it on this subreddit.

A Note Regarding Ceretropic's Caffeine/NALT

TLR were not telling people the ingredients. I never expected them to explain their production processes. I expected them to tell people the compounds they were consuming, rather than giving them proprietary names. I did

What is the best nootropic for someone looking primarily for a boost of energy and motivation that's stronger than caffeine but less extreme than amphetamines?

Replying to [deleted] · In case anybody wants to accomplish this with drugs, I've been using 60mg vyvanse + 1g psilocybin mushrooms for a while. Take both with a hardy meal and 2 glasses of water.

Are you joking or serious? You take amphetamines and a low dose of psilocybin as nootropics?

Replying to Reeses007 · Totally agree with this. I would recommend people trying ingredients by themselves in order to build a stack that they react well to. I've never understood the mentality to use abs…

This is a big problem I am seeing with people new to nootropics. They want to immediately jump into a stack, and do not want to put in the time to try thing by themselves, and see how each one affects them in isolation.
