Less is More
I wanted to mention this idea as it applies pretty centrally to the concept of nootropics and stacks
Pretty frequently, I will see posts looking for people to critique absurdly massive stacks that include quite a variety of nootropics and supplements. Oftentimes, the poster will not even remember why one of the things is included in the stack
While it is evident that there are plenty of nootropics that go hand in hand and have a fair amount of synergy, it is also important to remember that quantity != quality.
Sure, if your massive stack works for you and achieves what you're looking, keep taking it.
But with more parts included, there comes more risk, and less of an ability to evaluate each individual nootropic.
By risk, I don't necessarily mean the stack is going to kill you, I mean that the risk of feeling bad, or having weird side effects is heightened.
Evaluation is of equal importance as well, as I often will see people tempted to simply jump right into a stack, without testing out the individual parts alone. This is never a good idea, because if the stack achieves whatever goal you were seeking, it is likely that not everything was essential to…

I am one of those guys with nonsensical opiate tolerance.
4 grams kratom > 60 mg's oxycodone every time.

Damn, 60mg oxycodone is a lot!
