Could erinamax cause fatigue or lethargy?

Hello,
I recently started taking erinamax and bought some tigers milk to try as well but am gonna wait to add it. For some background I have some autoimmune issues and my hormones are rebalancing right now as well. But I started taking erinamax for the past two days and I noticed I was really tired. I’m not sure whether to attribute it to that or something else so I’m giving some time for everything to level out and will try it again. I’ve heard lions mane can lower cortisol or affect adenosine I think, but does this form of lions mane have much of that effect? Lastly, I’ve heard lions mane takes a bit to build up, any idea how long or if it’s faster w erinamax? Thanks for your input guys

It's going to depend on the person, and what else is in their stack. In theory, erinacine-A should increase norepinephrine, which should be stimulating. This will be more pronounced if you have a stimulating stack. We also just found out that berberine potentiates NGF.

I take berberine phytosome every day, which could be why I feel some of the NGF effects stronger. Berberine has AMPK effects, which makes things more stimulating.

Do you have any studies showing that? I can't find any.
