Is that too much ? (Daily Stack)
Original post in this thread

I've been using this stack daily and it feels great but I was wondering if it's not a bit too much complements or if there are potential negative interactions I am not seeing ?
So first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach :
* 2 Immune Defense
* 1 LC Plasma
* 1 Tongkat Ali
* 1 L-Tyrosine
* 1 8:1 Lion's Mane
* 1 ND Bacopa
* 1 CurcoWhite
Then, before bed :
* 1 ND Bacopa
* 1 Lion's Mane
What do you think ?

Yes, I'll try, although my first instinct was to re-dose Tongkat instead haha
I'm curious about what's the mechanism of action here ? Do Tongkat and Lion's Mane affect the same thing in opposite direction regarding libido/testosterone ?

There is speculation that lion's mane is a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, which would lower DHT synthesis. However, that is not proven. Reishi is, and another Hericium species, but it was not shown in Hericium erinaceus (lion's mane). So it is only speculation at the moment.
