Changing supplier and energy levels

Original post in this thread

Samsarah89 · 0 points

Hi all,

My first experience with NMN was 3 weeks ago. I ordered 30 enteric pills of 125mg from nootropicsdepot. At first I didnt feel much, then after a week I upped the dose to 250mg per day and then started to feel more energetic. When I hit my peak after a few more days, I felt great each morning. I normally drink 4 cups of coffee before 12 o clock, but now I could only stand 1. I was buzzing like a kid who drinks his first energy drink ever.

Before I knew it, those 30 pills were gone.
So I opened my new supply from Moleqar. I switched cause Germany is alot closer to my country and Moleqar does thirdparty testing whereas ND does not.
So its powder this time. The last 3 days im taking about 500mg of it, but feeling as crap as before in the mornings. In other words the powder doesnt seem to have any noticable effect for my energy levels so far. Maybe I should increase the dose to 750 or so, cause thats what I should take with my height and weight, I saw somewhere. 190cm and 90kg and 33 years old. Not taking any tmg btw.

Anyhow, im in doubt.
Im kinda wanting to go back to the enteric pills from ND cause they worked so well. But maybe those pills are laced with something else…

I remember this ND fanboy came into the mushrooms sub promoting and praising ND on their mushroom sup and then saying it was the best mushroom supplement and it beats all others while bashing one of the greatest mushroom extract companies to exist - Oriveda!! ND used Nammex to supply mushroom fruiting bodies, everyone getting into the mushroom extract field used Nammex. Oriveda is using pure mycelium of a specific strain, in line with the clinical trials.

I believe ND is all hype for people that dont know what good supplements and studied chemicals are and while they might work for some I tend to believe theyre just decent level stuff theyre selling.

Hello brand new one month old account bashing us over and over! Totally legit!

Oriveda uses fake dry labs to post fraudulent numbers on their products. They have for years. We called them out for it when we sent lion's mane to the lab they were using, and had them test it. We said it was lion's mane that contained 4% erinacines, like Oriveda was claiming at the time. They made us pay them, and then sent us a COA confirming it was real lion's mane with 4.1% erinacines. Great, right! Only problem was that we sent YEAST EXTRACT to them labeled as lion's mane mushroom. They were a totally fake lab, though. They just were in the business of sending fake COAs to brands to trick consumers. I alerted everyone to it, and it took YEARS for them to stop making the claims and for the lab to shut down. Years of fake data, even after I proved they were a dry lab. One of the greatest mushroom extract companies of all time!!!

We don't use Nammex, either. Keep spreading that propaganda, though. I am sure you convince some people.

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb asked me to post the Lab Testing COAs I received from Bulk Supplements (Below)

That's about what I expected. These are just internal COAs. To start, analyzing nitrogen content is not an appropriate methodology for amino acid assay. This is the same shit China got away with on infant formula and spi

3rd party lab testing for ND?

Replying to MisterYouAreSoDumb · I have said proper lab testing and quality control is important for the industry. Whether or not that proper lab testing is being done by a 3rd party lab or an in-house lab depends

Deception in Dietary Supplements: Fake Labs, Faulty Data, and COA Red Flags

Replying to DDsPLZ · Given the existence of "dry labs" offering COA's, i.e. an empty building that will sell you whatever COA you like... aren't COA's useless? I see people tell me not to buy from ND

I mean, yes... somewhat for the average consumer. This is why we made this video. COAs aren't totally useless, as you can spot inconsistencies and get a better idea of whether or not the brand has any idea about analytic

Is ND done launching new products?

Replying to HenryVonWilheimer · Will you be releasing any of the Erinamax extracts you were testing out that would be standardized to a higher amount of Erinacine-A and/or other interesting erinacines? Also w

Yes, we are still working on extracts of lion's mane mycelium. However, some beta testing we did make me pause, as I think the idea that extracts are better might not be true. Everyone parrots around that like it is fact
