I'm a 50 year old male, in decent shape, slightly elevated cholesterol but no other major health issues, rarely drink, no recreational drug use. I recently became interested in Nootropics to combat anxiety, stress, and fatigue. Being a Lawyer I need every edge I can get in the day to day. So I read the Nootropic Blogs, watched dozens of videos and read hundreds of pages on this Reddit Feed. Having done the research I started taking the following (all of which I bought at Nootropics Depot). My first week I started taking Lion's Mane then introduced each Noot 1 by 1 every couple of days, then finally taking the following Stack over 3 weeks:
Lions Mane 500 mg - 1x/dayCDP Citicholine 250 mg - 1x/dayL-Theanine 200mg - 1x/dayRhodolea Rosea 500mg - 1x/dayOxiracetam 750mg - 1x/dayNoopept 10mg (caused brain fog after 3 days / discontinued)Fish Oil (daily)L-Tyrosine 500mg (caused brain fog after 2 days / discontinued)

It's really similar for most industries in the US, unfortunately. There are tons of regulations, but not enough enforcement to catch all the bad actors. A lot of people might think the supplement industry is more poorly regulated than other industries, but it's really not. It's just a sad fact that most industries in the US deal with the same thing. If you look into the SEC, you will really see the corruption. Regulatory capture has gutted that agency, and most of the people at the SEC are either former banking people, or they look the other way so that they can get a job with a bank or hedge fund once they leave the SEC. It's how the FDA is with the pharma industry. That's where the real money is, so they often go easy on pharma companies so they can get a cushy job there after their time at the FDA. Nobody is going to supplement companies like that. The real stupid money is in pharma here. It's obscene, really.
Glad to hear it! Yes, shipping speed is much better right now than a couple months ago. That 3-4 month period was really rough. Global shipping went through a very rough patch there. It's getting better now, though. Thank god!
