Supply chain breakdown risks for Nootropics Depot?

Original post in this thread

blabmight · 42 points

This might be best answered by /u/misteryouaresodumb but I thought I'd post the question because it might be useful for others who are curious.

Is it true that $150k worth of supplies have been lost and rejected? And there's $500k currently in limbo? And certain supplies like bottles could end up arriving in a year from purchase?

I'm wondering what sort of risk this poses for Nootropics Depot?

Are there any details regarding what has caused customs to clamp down so tightly? Is there a foreseen date of when things will loosen up or is this probably going to persist under the current administration?

I'm just curious about the details around this\\these issues.

Thank you for all that you do, your work is admirable and your products have changed my life!

Are there certain classes of Nootropics they are targeting or is it all supplemental type shipments they are checking? I've stocked up on a few things like L-Theanine, KSM, Milk Thistle and a few others. Your Milk Thistle is the best I've ever had btw.

Again, appreciate you and your team, you are the only place I buy supplements/Nootropics from.

No, they are inspecting everything that is a supplement or chemical right now. Doesn't matter what it is. It's pretty much across the board.

Replying to Experienced8 · ND does it again! Would love to hear from the ND team how Coriander's relaxing effects compare to other common compounds like lemon balm or l-theanine.

It's much more effective, at least for me. We brought this out because we started working with a company in Europe that specialized in supercritical CO2 extracts, and they sent me a sample of some of their stuff. I start
