Best nootropics?

[Silent lucky]

I’ve tried Joe Rogans stuff and felt mental alertness and retention. Anyone had good experiences with anything else?

It really depends on what effects you are looking for. L-theanine is the one I go too most often. I no longer get get anxious or jittery from coffee.

I've tried different racetams and noopept. They seem to shine when you have some type of mentally demanding work you need to get done and could use an extra boost.

Also older people seem to notice stronger effects from many nootropics.

Nothing beats good sleep and nutrition for me.

Im a big fan of Armodafinil, I used it throughout my prep once the brainfog and fatigue were beginning to effect my work.

makes you feel like you got a really good nights sleep the night before, just awake and alert and slaughters brain fog.

no stimulant like effects at all.

IIRC from the research conducted on madafinil/armodafinil they didnt find any tolerance or dependency issues with prolonged use, however it still not use it as an every day thing..

I've tried moda and liked it. How does armodafinil compare?

I took it first thing in the morning, and it lasted me through the work day, but didn't negatively effect my sleep.

Combined with caffeine I can focus on one task for 12hrs with nearly no interruptions. You really have to limit distractions on it though.

I had to take it early in the AM or else sleeping at night became a problem. As in I had a very difficult time falling asleep. While I was taking it I could get by on a lot less sleep ( for awhile anyways, it still catches up to you eventually).
