Does Polygala affect serotonin in any significant way?

Original post in this thread

Examine.com indicates its active components (Yuanzhi-1 particularly) inhibit SERT and are equipotent to fluoxetine. Particularly speaking about the ND extract, is this applicable to oral administration? Is the level of Yuanzhi-1 known for this specifiic extract?

Examine.com also says that in nice polygala fails to influence age-related decline in hippocampal serotonin. Another study showed that other constituents of the herb (polygalasaponins) actually have anti-serotonergic effects.

I don't believe there is any more research on the topic, especially not in humans. Has anyone noticed any interactions between the herb and other drugs with effects on serotonin? Particularly curious if it's effects on SERT are strong enough to block the effects of psychedelic drugs.

No, it more affects ACh, glutamate, cortisol, and oxidation.

Lion's mane is super underrated

Replying to edefakiel · Does anybody knows if Lion's Mane Mushroom 50/50 10:1 Extract from ND is gone for good? I tryed to order it when I ordered my Polygala, but seems to be out of stock at least since

We are going to release a newer concentrated extract from Nammex soon in place of it. Then we are going to work on a pure Lions' Mane mycelium extract as well.

Replying to srubek · /u/misteryouaresodumb? ND? The next 'Polygala,' so to speak?

It's one we have researched a bit. We have so many cool things that we might bring out. The big issue is analytical ability. Some of the more esoteric plant extracts don't have verified methods yet. So we are a bit limit
