I have a questions about Examine.com and aniracetam.

On Examine.com on the section "Serum 3.2" it says in relation to "Plasma levels of aniracetam have been noted to peak at 2.3mcg/L (300mg) and 14.1mcg/L (1200mg) with an elimination half life of 35 minutes following ingestion of aniracetam.[1] It appears to have extensive first pass metabolism in the liver[1] with the main metabolites being N-anisoyl-GABA, 2-pyrrolidinone, and anisic acid. 95.8% of the dose is recovered, mostly in the urine, 28 hours post ingestion.[1]"
Does this mean that our body only uses 4.2% of the dose of aniracetam we use?

What they were answering

Yeah it is very confusing to me since I am not a bio./chem major. I am just glad that I might be able to get the effect due to N-anisoyl-GABA. Thank god. Once again thank you.

My pleasure! I just got done writing a huge detailed racetam guide that talks about all this.
