Nootropicsdepot extracts... dosages?

Original post in this thread

Some-Thoughts · 5 points

Hello,

what dosages of nootropics depot extracts (especially mushroom and ginseng) do you take and what effects do you get?

I am currently taking lions mane and cordyceps 10:1. I am very sure that i am getting non placebo effects from lions mane but i feel actually absolutely nothing from cordyceps.
I am wondering whether i am taking enough and i did not find much about recommendet dosages.

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.

The acute effects on motivation are definatly due to polygala. The memory effects on the other hand did build up slowly and i noticed them after 2 weeks.
I was sure that it is not just placebo after 4 weeks.

I tried cordyceps dosages between 500mg and 1500mg with no acute effects. I tried it before doing workouts (noticed no difference) and as a booster after a night of bad short sleep (maybe a bit more energy, could be placebo).

I could see that. The polygala is affecting the motivation, and the lion's mane is affecting memory. It's too bad you don't react well to the cordyceps. It's one of my favorites.
