Biohacker Review: Memantine Makes Caffeine Great Again!

I did one little blue tablet in the morning along with a capsule of Uridine, 10 milligrams of Noopept, and my adaptogenic herbs. Then I went to my favorite cafe to hang out and work on my laptop; I usually drink two large cafe Americanos, about 45 minutes later halfway through my first coffee memantine's effects were becoming quite noticeable;

• I was quite energetic and motivated.
• I was pretty creative and in a good mood.
• I ordered a second coffee but only drank half of it as I felt pretty wired.
• After working several hours I took a little break to read a book. I found the book very engrossing and intellectually stimulating - I had trouble putting it down!
• I noticed that day that my vision was just a little impaired, which is not good because my eyes are pretty bad, to begin with.
• By the end of the day, though I had mixed feelings about Memantine, I felt quite frazzled and socially awkward. My motor control seemed a little off as well, and my typing was a little inaccurate, although I was motivated to work pretty late into the night.

In the future, I'll isolate Memantine and caffeine or Memantine and Racetams.

Biohacker Review: Good for verbal intelligence but...

I've been taking using Mind Lab Pro for a few weeks now. I've transitioned off Racetams for a few months, just for experimentation purposes, and have been using Adaptogens daily which doesn't imbue as much energy which Mind Lab Pro makes up for.

It's quite good for verbal intelligence, I've used it a couple of times before I did my Biohacking consultations. I try to batch process my Biohacking consultations, I will do four or five 30-minute calls in an afternoon, and it's important that...

• I can answer the (sometimes quite complicated) Biohacking questions my clients have for me (that a lot of times they couldn't find the answer to with a Google search).
• I am a good empathetic listener.
• I am energetic and positive.

Biohacker Review: Tis' the season for a stronger Biohacker beverage!

In this review, I'll tell you about my subjective experience with Turkey Tail and break down the recent science that has been done on this mushroom of mythological repute.

“HPV can’t be cured”

Your doctor, Google, the CDC, the NHS, and Planned Parenthood will tell you "there's no cure for HPV" - you're screwed for life, you dirty slut, you! But, good news, some high-quality evidence from recent scientific trials suggests that putting an embarrassing case of HPV or even a (potentially life-threatening) case of cervical cancer behind you might not take invasive surgery, antiviral drugs, or lifelong medical treatment from the pharmaceutical-hospital industrial complex.

Biohacker Review: Overcoming Sleep Deprivation

I hadn't used Modafinil in quite some time, I'd just received an assortment of Eurogics which I decided to use to offset a night of bad sleep. Which I don't recommend generally, Nootropics should not be used regularly to cope with insomnia, but I suffer from insomnia infrequently and Modafinil can really make a big difference when you're sleep-deprived.

My personal policy on sleep deprivation is that I wake up early, get to work, and do my best to power through the day. I emerged from light and dissatisfying slumber around 5:30 AM after tossing and turning for hours while thoughts raced through my mind. Modafinil typically takes an hour or sometimes two to kick in for me, so I took a full 200-milligram capsule of MODAWAKE® and tried to go back to sleep. The Modafinil kicked in as expected, it's a kind of cool sensation to feel the Modafinil begin to take effect as you are halfway between the dream world and waking life. I cuddled with my wife for a bit and got up.

Biohacker Review: Takes the edge off

Lately, two capsules of Just Relax have been taking the edge off for me in the evenings. I'm in the midst of a day 90 break from booze so I sometimes need a little pharmacological help unwinding after a long day of work. I find that two to three capsules put me in a very relaxed state without knocking me out so I can enjoy a book in the mid-evening.

I'm a big fan of taking this kind of stack a few hours before bed, as it helps me wind down so I fall right asleep, slumber deeply, and arise the next morning feeling awesome. I do recommend it in combination with NeuroActive's Deep Sleep, which will knock you right out when the time comes.

I've been getting some seriously solid sleep lately by actually using NeuroActive's anxiolytic stacks with some biohacking tech.

Biohack Review: 800 milligrams a day keeps the sleep deprivation at bay

Recently I've reacquainted myself with Tyrosine in the N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine (NALT) form, from PureBulk.com. Here I'll tell you a little about its subjective effects and will summarize the recent science done on this well-established Nootropic.

Biohacker Review: Vitamin C is sort of a Nootropic

In this review, I'll tell you about why I take Ascorbic Acid daily and break down the recent science that has been done on it.

Every day, I make a tangy Biohacker beverage for my wife and I composed of powdered Creatine, NALT, and Ascorbic Acid with which I wash down whatever capsuled Nootropics or supplements I'm taking in the midmorning. Ascorbic Acid doesn't have much of a subjective effect itself; I take it mostly because I really, really hate getting sick during the wintertime, and taking it daily we've managed to almost totally avoid illness in the past few winters (with the exception of a very mild case of COVID last year.)

Biohack Review: Build (and preserve) muscle, like a boss!

If you'd like to take your workouts and fitness to the next level but are a bit confused by the dizzying number of supplemental options (some of dubious safety) for doing so I'll simplify things for you: take HMB and Creatine. Here I'll review HMB and break down the recent science done on it.

Potassium Iodide is an essential $11 bio-prepping measure that belongs in your armamentarium

I don't watch a lot of TV, but every once in a while I'll find a real gem of a series and I enjoyed HBO's riveting dramatization of the Chernobyl disaster.
