Same product, different vendors, different results. Is this normal? Powder City/Ceretropic

Original post in this thread

KrackerCrumbs · 8 points

Due to the Great Powder City Crisis of 2016 I had to find another source for my Adrafinil. I researched reputable vendors and finally settled on Ceretropic. My experience with PC's Adrafinil has always been clean, long lasting and extremely effective. The Adrafinil from Ceretropic felt off, clunky and delayed. I had to reconfigure dosage all over again even though I've been using Adrafinil for almost a full year now, in the end wasting product and therefore money. I am not saying that something is wrong with Ceretropic's product, only that it did not give me the specific effects that I have come to associate with Adrafinil.

What I want to know from you, O Great Reddit Community, is if differences like these are to be expected from one vendor to the next, or if nootropics and their effects are generally consistent across the board. I have only ever used PC, so I have nothing but this one instance to use as a comparison.

I'd just like to have a reliable backup in case something like this temporary shortage happens again in the future. What say you, wise ones? Should I expect similar experiences in the future with other companies? Have you?

more technical writing + some creativity (translation of scientific text)

I find Noopept and Pramiracetam are great for that sort of thing. Semax goes well with them as well. It really depends on the person, too. What works best for one's own brain chemistry varies.

Semax: long-term side effects

Replying to brrr555 · Do you have a combo of supplements that you find best for reading large amounts of technical material?

I can tell you what works for me personally. I find taking PRL-8-53, Pramiracetam, and a small dose of Unifiram, to be very effective at memorization of large amounts of data. Usually I'll add Semax to that as well. Nasa

What hasn't worked for you

Replying to mind_in_a_box · So far, nothing worked for me. l-tyrosine, l-theanine, noopept, aniracetam, pramiracetam, oxiracetam. yes, I took a choline source with the racetams. first alpha gpc, then bitart

Try something other than a racetam. I barely use racetams anymore. There are a lot more effective things out there.

Powder City hooked me up

Replying to otistoole · > Remember that kratom is not a nootropic, and should be suggested with care. No need to remind me, I offered more than one caveat in my post, and wouldn't have even suggested it

My comment was more for everyone else reading. You have to remember that a lot of people come here who are just starting out, and might see kratom being mentioned on a nootropics subreddit, then automatically consider it
