Hi, I would like to try Cordyceps, but the price makes me have to think carefully.
/u/realmushrooms, Cordyceps Cs-4 has more research on it and is way cheaper, so what are the reasons to buy Cordyceps militaris, which is better for motivation? Does Cordyceps have cholinergic properties (aCHe inhibitor,....)? Cause I react badly to cholinergic stuff.
/u/MisterYouAreSoDumb, your CORDYCEPS 10:1 is more expensive yet why it has lower Beta-Glucan (β-Glucan) content (20% vs 30%)? Also, same question as above, does Cordyceps have cholinergic properties (aCHe inhibitor,....)?

Because my before and after taking these substances (nicotine, dmae, fish oil, cdp choline, deer velvet..) my digit span scores was always lower. I also felt uncomfortable when on them.
I had taken 250mg cdp choline everyday with piracetam for a while, and at 1 point I felt slightly depressed. Then I threw away the choline, only took piracetam and have been fine since.

Yeah, depression on stronger choline sources (CDP, GPC, etc) is very common. It's why I always suggest people only add in a choline source if they are getting headaches with racetams. I am the same way. I get depressed on choline, which lasts a few days. I am prone to depression, though.
