Let's talk Ginseng

Original post in this thread

I saw NootropicsDepot released 3 new Ginsengs today so thought it was good time to ask for the difference between them and actual effects of Ginseng. Anyone experienced what it did for you?
Increase in mood? Calmness? Increase in cognition (apparently only on fatigued users) Anyone with actual experience?

And is the ginseng from root gonna have different effect from the one in leaf? Since their ginsegodies are very different.
Cheers.

P.S. Why is the dosage the same for 2 standard Ginsengs as the patented extract, extract apparently 15 times increased absorption, 4 times faster absorption and 4 times more consistent absorption.

There are acute effects; especially if you are taking it with something like caffeine or theacrine. I can certainly notice pretty significant acute effects when I take them. The most acute effects are from GS15-4 sublingually. I actually took 200mg sublingually today, and it was a bit too much.

Epicor is really meant for every day. Some people just take it daily during flu season, or when they know they will need a little extra help. I take it every day, though.

Just how badly does caffeine affect sleep quality?

Replying to bentheredidthat · I actually take Guarana and Ginseng instead of caffeine. I try not to drink pure caffeine anymore though I do drink tea in the mornings sometimes and I drink decaf coffee. Anybody

Guarana has twice the amount of caffeine as coffee, so you are drinking caffeine.
