Generally, If I take more than 150mg from ND's extract I'm not able to sleep very well. <100mg and I sleep like a rock. 200mg+ is very stimulating for me, and I usually take it as a stimulant lol. I've found great use as a late-night stim.
To be honest the ND extract is the hardest substance to review I've ever found. Sometimes 300mg makes me super groggy and sometimes it's like a Pramiracetam + amphetamine, but with a clear and healthier head. It has been months and I'm not even close to knowing what is happening.
Oh yea, an important thing to point out, too: everytime I take bacopa I have the clearest and most healthy head the other day. Not even inhibiting MAOB gave me this well-being sensation, it's actually insane. And it's another effect that I was not able to isolate.

Well that's an interesting effect! Thanks for sharing! So my team and I get that effect with higher doses of Cyracos. We think that rosmarinic acid has a bell shaped dose/response curve. So lower doses are sedating, while higher doses are stimulating. You notice this more often with Cyracos, since it has a lot more rosmarinic acid than our 10:1 does. However, maybe you are even more sensitive to it. So even normal doses of our ND lemon balm does it for you.
Have you ever tried Cyracos before?
