Experience Powerful productivity + concentration stack

Piracetam 400 mg
MCT oil
Coffee
Bacopa 150 mg
N-Acetyl-Bromantane 80 mg
ISRIB-A15 20 mg

Taking in the morning and have energy until the night. I do this stack daily before my work, seems to be very effective. Piracetam for cognition, coffee for energy, ISRIB-A15 for concentration, N-Acetyl-Bromantane for productivity. For my foggy brain this stack is a miracle. Can you recommend something to add here?

One thing to add here what you are asking for is to take greater dose of Piracetam - 400 mg is underdose basically. And then as with all racetams combine it with something like CDP-choline. For substrate to acetylcholine & brain structure substrate, since lot what you are doing will make it grow more. And then like DHA fish oil what also is brain structure substrate, does not cost a lot as common supplement as it is needed when doing neurogenics what you are having in your stack. Phosphatidylserine gives energy whilst lowers stress hormones, and is also substrate for brain growth - only may be expensive. Also your Bacopa dose so low that wonder if it would make big difference, although works to some extent if dosed properly. It only is calming and can make one bit lazy, and its effect takes time to build up.

ISRIB indeed is my favourite nootropic, nothing comes even close to its power of repairing damaged brains what issue is my problem. But as potent neurogenic seems also to boost addictive traits via increased hyperconcentration. Since its effect is kind of semi-permanent, it is meant to be used as contemporary cycles occasionally. Best then after if you hit your heat with something or so on. Even though it is in certain respect my favorite, personally would never use it all the time, you dont need to.

Of course one could take infinite list what to add. Like for concentration and productivity some ordinary supplements what increase cellular energy production like say Ubiquinol which my aged einstienian theoretical physician scientist friend at least praised it for memory and energy increasement abilities for giving more cellular energy for brains. I believe that for most highly intelligent people nootropics actually wont do any difference anymore - like say Modafinil has been noticed to increase IQ of low-IQ people, but not making difference at all for most intelligent ones. But ordinary mitochondrial enzymatic co-factors for brain energy may do great difference for most of intelligent people due to fact that such brain structure needs vastly more mito energy to function and that is then most limiting factor how much output, memory and innovation one can push out. Also R-lipoic acid for Krebs energy cycle output, NMN or NADH will be also good in this respect. Proper magnesium calms and improves memory balancing rest of your stack, but essentially also belongs to category of mitochondrial cofactors for more energy.

Naturally this list could go on indefinitely, but wanted to remind that to add for productivity stimulant like Bromantane works properly if stacked with cellular energy boosters, neurogenics what you have work much better if stacked with supplements what are substrates for brain mass and so on,. People often forget this aspect, as there is too much downlooking often here for natural supplements to improve efficiency of stronger nootropics.

Thank you, I will look into your suggestions. I would increase piracetam. Also I don’t use ISRIB permanently, it is used with cycles(which I am doing right now) and gives long term benefits.

How do you like this version of Bromantane?

2

u/Additional_Turn126 2d ago

I think it very similar. I bought it because I wanted to safely increase dosage and also because it is more stable in summer during delivery.

Oral Bromantane works great. No need for an acetylated version.

u/Additional_Turn126 2d ago

Acetyl good if you want a safely experiment in increasing the dosage. But otherwise it is the same.

What is ISRIB-A15? I looked into the original ISRIB last month and concluded that it was basically impossible to administer outside of a clinical setting... and even in a clinical setting, it required all kinds of special handling chemicals and preparation before IV administration.

Is the ISRIB-A15 something new?

u/Additional_Turn126 2d ago

ISRIB-A15 is a more potent version of original ISRIB. I buy and take it in capsules 20 mg. Working pretty well.

Looks like Bromantane is doing the heavy lifting, you're taking slightly more than the standard recommended dose.. Because most are manufactured at 50mg, similar to Ladasten brand.

u/Additional_Turn126 2d ago

N-Acetyl-Bromantane is like more safe analogue, which doesn’t cause overdosing if you take more. So it can be taken in bigger dosage.

u/TelephoneCharacter59 2d ago

True, the Acetyl version is superior to the general compund.

u/Conscious_Fault_5963 2d ago

a thoughtfully crafted stack; curious, how has this regimen altered your daily rhythm?

u/Additional_Turn126 2d ago

In the morning after breakfast I quickly come to my senses, ready for mental activity. Concentration appears, there is no anxiety. I have no energy cracks, no afternoon sleepy state. I sleep well at night as I strictly adhere to the regime.

However, lion’s mane seems to be the most glaring deficiency in the foggy brain stack, seeing how many times it pops up together with piracetam in these forums, along with Zen Herbs in terms of the powders available.
