Quake / Re: Quadz, the Loquaciously Multiloquent Member

« on: July 14, 2021, 07:53:38 AM »

Ahh shit! Even though I'm pretty sure quadz didn't like me and he had many reasons not to, I always respected him as major contributor to this community. He was much smarter than I like most people are but he had a knack for really putting me in my place when I needed to be. He had a way of making his point in a clever, logical & emotionless way which would just infuriate me. Today I strive to have such an attitude when it comes to confrontation and perhaps it's people like him that I've met throughout my life which have influenced me to think and act differently. Much respect for quadz, I shall celebrate him by reinstalling Q2 and having a stiff drink in his honor while I get owned in a game I realize now I was only mediocre at.

It's my understanding this is not a medication, it is a herbal supplement.

Herbal supplement manufacturers don't have to get approval from the FDA before putting their products on the market. However herbal supplements are regulated by the FDA, but not as drugs or as foods. They fall under a category called dietary supplements. The rules for dietary supplements are as follows:

Manufacturers don't have to seek FDA approval before putting dietary supplements on the market. In addition, companies can claim that products address a nutrient deficiency, support health or are linked to body functions, if they have supporting research, and they include a disclaimer that the FDA hasn't evaluated the claim.

Manufacturers must follow good manufacturing practices (GMPs) to ensure that supplements are processed consistently and meet quality standards. GMPs are intended to keep the wrong ingredients and contaminants, such as pesticides and lead, out of supplements, as well as make sure that the right ingredients are included in appropriate amounts.

Once a dietary supplement is on the market, the FDA is responsible for monitoring its safety. If the FDA finds a product to be unsafe, it can take action against the manufacturer or distributor or both, and may issue a warning or require that the product be removed from the market.

The FDA requires that the following information be included on the labels of all herbal supplements:

The name of the herbal supplement
The name and address of manufacturer or distributor
A complete list of ingredients — either in the Supplement Facts panel or listed beneath it
Serving size, amount and active ingredient

These regulations provide consumers with the assurance that herbal supplements meet certain quality standards and that the FDA can intervene to remove dangerous products from the market. The rules do not, however, guarantee that herbal supplements are safe for anyone to use.

So... I try at my own risk. I have tried many things at my own risk... many of those things had to have been much more dangerous.

Is it going to work? I haven't seen one person report that it does 'nothing' to them... so I guess we'll see and even if it does 'nothing' in the past I've bought bunk shit that hardly got me high before so same difference to me. At least this time I'm not trying to get high!

They call it a Nootropic

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nootropic

Anyone ever done one before?

Science / Re: dream better

« on: August 17, 2011, 12:07:08 PM »

hmm this sounds rather harmless though...

Ingredients:

GPC Choline – 100 mg
Derived from lecithin, Glyceryl Phosphoryl Choline is a phospholipid metabolite found concentrated in neuronal membranes. Unlike less expensive forms of Choline such as Choline Bitrartate, GPC choline is well absorbed and easily crosses the blood brain barrier. Once delivered it supports brain function and learning processes by directly increasing the synthesis and secretion of acetylcholine. Strong acetylcholine has been linked to memory, focus, mental drive, REM sleep states, and the prevention of mental degradation such as in Alzheimers.

Huperzia Serrata (.5% Huperzine A) – 50 mg
Commonly known as Northern Firmoss, Huperzia Serrata is one of the most effective natural acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. It contains the well studied alkaloid Huperzine A, which has been tested in a variety of clinical applications and shown to have positive effects on brain function. Acetylcholinesterase (ACE) is responsible for the breakdown of Acetylcholine, and so by inhibiting ACE, more acetylcholine is available to the brain. By using the full spectrum Huperzia Serrata vs. Huperzine A, you also get the benefits of Huperzine B, and other balancing elements of the whole herb.

Vinpocetine — 5mg
Derived from the periwinkle plant, vinpocetine helps deliver oxygen to the brain by increasing circulation and blood flow. Extensively studied in Europe, clinical investigations have found it to provide several advantages for the human brain, including memory enhancement, increased cognitive performance, improved cerebral circulation and higher mental acuity and awareness.

AC-11 – 350mg
AC-11® the proprietary compound licensed under agreement from Optigenex Inc, is derived from Uncaria Tomentosa, a plant indigenous to the South American rainforest. In a series of peer reviewed scientific and clinical studies conducted by third party laboratories and university medical centers, AC-11® has been shown to help the body’s natural ability to repair DNA. Optigenex Inc is the exclusive patent holder for AC-11®. US patent numbers: 6039949, 6238675 B1, 6361805 B2
Although the exact mechanisms of action are being further investigated, the scientists believe that when the body is subjected to stress affecting the integrity of the DNA, AC-11® helps activate enzymes that are instrumental in the repair processes. This goes beyond other nutritional supplement by protecting the body from damage to its fundamental building blocks: The DNA itself.

Bacopa (20% Bacosides) — 500 mg
Bacopa monnieri is an Ayurvedic herb found in the marshlands of India known to enhance clear thinking and support memory function. Ayurvedic masters have touted its cognitive enhancing effects for centuries as Bacopa has been served to Raj’s and peasants alike. Clinical studies show that it has strong antioxidant properties, protects mental function in those with epilepsy who take the drug phenytion, and animal models have shown unequivocally that bacopa improves learning skills.

Bacosides, the active compounds in Bacopa, play a protective role in the synaptic functions of the nerves in the hippocampus, the seat of memory. Inside the hippocampus nerve impulses are transmitted across the synapses and bacopa is believed to help prevent the degeneration that impairs memory and cognition.

Pterostilbene — 250 mcg
One of the hottest extracts in the field of nootropics, pterostilbene is quickly surpassing its cousin resveratrol in popularity. A natural antioxidant abundant in blueberries, anecdotal evidence suggests that this particular antioxidant is effective in eliminating free radicals that contribute to ‘mental fog’. Combined with the other antioxidants in the formula, this adds further well rounded protection and health benefits to AlphaBrain.

Mucuna Pruriens (50% l-Dopa) — 200mg
Mucuna pruriens, commonly known as velvet bean or cowhage is another Aryuvedic herb with a long history of traditional use for treatment of the brain. As science later discovered, mucuna is one of the few plants to contain high quantities of l-Dopa, a precursor to the neurotransmitter dopamine. L-dopa crosses the blood brain barrier and converts into dopamine, an important brain chemical involved in mood, sexuality, and movement. Mucuna pruriens also has antioxidant properties and is currently being studied in conjunction with the prevention/treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

GABA — 300mg
GABA or gamma-aminobutyric acid, discovered in 1950, is the most important and widespread inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. Symptoms of unbalanced excitation in the brain includes restlessness, irritability, insomnia, and even seizures. By inhibiting excessive excitability GABA is able to induce relaxation, analgesia, and even aid in sleep. In the Alpha Brain formula, GABA plays an important role in balancing out the brain, and ensuring that the mind stays calm even as the ‘engines’ are roaring.

Oat Straw (10:1) — 300 mg
Oat straw is one of natures most powerful anxiolytics (anti-anxiety treatments) and has been prescribed for of a wide range of nervous conditions. It has also been shown to help with exhaustion related neurological pains and is commonly given as a natural alternative to help combat ADHD or ADD. Our formulation is extremely powerful, in a 10:1 concentration, and like Gaba, serves to make AlphaBrain the completely unique product that it is… A balanced nootropic.

Vitamin B6 – 15 mg
Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) is one of the body’s busiest vitamins, involved in an estimated 101 chemical reactions. One of its primary tasks is to aid in the manufacturing of amino acids and neurotransmitters. Some of these neurotransmitters are serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine and GABA. Without Vitamin B6 many of the processes happening with the active ingredients in the formula would not be nearly as effective.

Everything in AlphaBrain is water soluble and therefore will not collect in your bloodstream.

Well I really don't know what much of this means... but I've put worse shit in my body? What could a week or two of this really do? Besides the testimonies look promising.

is this really a science topic? I guess so...

So this new shit released called AlphaBRAIN. Some kind of crazy ass supplement - http://www.onnit.com/

I listen to Joe Rogan's podcasts and he raves about how awesome this shit is. If you don't know Joe Rogan, he is a crazy advocate of psychedelics thus why I listen to him often.

Anyhow, people are reviewing stuff are giving it great ratings. In fact Onnit's entire stock has run out, the demand is huge. Only problem I see is it's mad expensive...

So do you think this shit is going to kill people? Doesn't look FDA approved and maybe too good to be true...? was thinking of trying it out. I want crazy dreams
