I've spent at least 3 grand on nootropics by now, and I gotta say, the best thing that I've done to noticeable effect was adapt to (almost exclusively) a ketogenic diet (MCT oil is your friend), supplement with 3:2 ratio EPA/DHA fish oil (now krill oil), vitamin D3 and MK-7, curcumin phytosome complex (with BioPerine), magnesium glycinate, an active, methyl B-complex (or something like this).
And even a walk around the neighborhood each day is going to improve your brain function. I don't exercise enough, but I'll do the bare minimum. I don't even know if my brain is capable of producing "endorphins"
There is a deep lacking feeling that I have always felt the need to fill, something outside myself felt needed, which has led me to become a drunk, drug-addict in the past.
The stark difference in my life from adapting to the above, has definitely improved cognition, and my overall quality of life. My ADD-PI symptoms are pretty low now too, and still occasionally take dextroamphetamine as a booster, but do I need it anymore? I don't know. It's nice to have around, it's not nice to start abusing. I'll admit that it's a crutch, a safety blanket to have around.
I've been recommended CoQ10 as a migraine treatment. It is apparently one of the few supplements with a proven track record to reduce migraines. Link to study
It would be very cool if it gives me smooth skin. I don't really have wrinkles yet, so it would be neat if they just don't show up now, and I have 50% fewer migraines to boot!
Edit: I was already eyeing this earlier today after another migraine bout, and this thread tipped me over to purchasing it lol. I am trying this brand.
alright here goes my exhaustive list of stuff that goes into my preworkout! i love to research the stuff that works, and then experiment to see how effectively they work for me, especially on keto.

currently experimenting with:
phew! making this list made me realize how much time and effort i put into the trial and error of my preworkout. of course, i supplement a lot of this stuff with my other meals as well. as you can see, i'm very big on supplements, biohacking, and nootropics. i read up a lot on research in my spare time.
I'm going through the same thing right now. I recently started using HabitRPG as a fun little way to keep track of things I should be doing and rewarding myself when I keep on task. Here are some of the little rituals I've started doing:
Also, set up a list of general to-dos, like getting a haircut, talking to a family member/friend that you haven't connected with in a while, or a twee little project from Pinterest that looks easy and will help organize your stuff (I have a corkboard necklace display and a magnetic makeup board on mine). When you're thinking "Man, I wish I had something to do right now," you can go to that list and cross something off.
Hopefully there's something on here that you or someone else will be able to use.
change 3. with (more EPA/DHA per pill)

Also not sure of your age, but 100mg of ubiquinol could be a good addition

​
not sure if you need both 1. and 4. Probably better to just stick with 1.
Try adding pterostilbene. I think after two weeks if you still feel no difference add TMG. Take TMG at night though. It might make you sleepy.
I really started to feel a difference with this after two weeks.
https://www.amazon.com/Best-Pterostilbene-150mg-Non-GMO-Gluten/dp/B0758P4LG3/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=pterostilbene&qid=1571161269&sr=8-4
I'm trying this next out of curiosity.

This is what I take
Can't attest to its validaty but I've talked with people who claim that the anti-oxidant astaxanthin can change your skin color. It contains the same pigment that makes lobsters red.

It is part of the subscribe and save program which is awesome because I note how often I need them shipped (every 3 months, 4 months, etc.) and it ships them then to me automatically.
I used to get palpitations all the time. I started taking coQ10 daily and they immediately reduced drastically. I still get them, but not nearly as much. This is the one I take http://www.amazon.com/Doctors-Best-Absorption-Coq10-BioPerine/dp/B0019GW3G8/ref=zg_bs_3774561_1
We both take Doctors Best from Amazon. No complaints here.
I get these on Amazon. They sometimes go even lower in prices. They are sold cheaper on Amazon than Walmart.
Not sure how much they've improved my sperm, I'll find out next week!

Brawn Nutrition, of Amazon.
TUDCA by Brawn Nutrition - 60 Caps https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DXFSKIS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_1y5QwbAZNFV82
I was on low dose opioids for years because of a back injury and I found the worst part was detoxing from the fucking acetaminophen. I had horrible headaches for months.
I’m on low dose naltrexone now and I want to shout from the roof tops. It’s been a life changer in terms of pain.
I’ve also had horrible headaches from things like calcium d-glucarate and dim that I use to reduce estrogen and balance my hormones. The only thing besides time that has helped The headaches is choline. I specifically take Thorne Research - Phosphatidyl Choline - Phospholipid Complex for Cell Membrane Support - 60 Gelcaps. I’m throwing this out there in case you get headaches that nothing touches in your quest.
Choline is also good for traumatic brain injuries so it covers a lot of bases. It helps your neurons repair.
I also suggest a multi vitamin. You’re taking a lot of stuff but you could be missing things like manganese. I’m on mobile and I can’t double check to see if you’re taking fish oil but that too. I eat well too but I just find my brain and performance are much better if I’m taking a baseline of everything.
I’d also look at Nad. That stuff can be a miracle, especially for any functions related to mitochondria. I take Thorne Research - ResveraCel - Nicotinamide Riboside (Niagen) with Resveratrol and Cofactors in One Capsule - Supports Healthy Aging - 60 Capsules.
I also take Jarrow Formulas Ubiquinol Plus Pyrroloquinoline Quinone, Supports Heart Health and Cognitive Function, 30 Softgels for mitochondrial function.
The good thing about taking things for mitochondria is besides the impact on your brain it also can improve egg health in case you want kids/more kids.
I also take NAC for a clean liver. I had elevated ALT and AST liver enzymes for years because of the acetaminophen in the opioids. The NAC kept them in check. It’s also lowered my AST back to normal and my ALT to the lowest it’s ever been afterwards.
Someone also mentioned Modafinil. I take that too. It’s good stuff. I don’t get the crazy focus and drive some people get (or I haven’t since the first week) but it helps me stay awake all day. I get it from my doctor so I don’t have any sources for you. But I went to her with some studies about chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, neither of which I have but had symptoms of, and she was easy about it.
I’ve tried Qualia and liked it before an FDA mandated formula change. It’s now missing the racetams. You can get racetams elsewhere. I see them advertising on Reddit. I sometimes take phenylpiracetam if my ass is dragging.
I find that Brain Plus works as well for me as Qualia and is significantly less. It’s $20 a month vs $120. I feel like it covers enough bases. Some people don’t like the kitchen sink approach to nootropics but I’ve found it works well for me and fits what I want to spend on that particular supplement.
If you don’t follow Dave Asprey, he’s a good resource. His book Headstrong is all about hacking mitochondrial performance. He also had some health issues and brain fog and I’ve learned a lot about recovering my brain from him.
Good luck.
Vitamin B12 Deficiency
>Tinnitus may be associated with vitamin B12 deficiency.
 
On that note, supplements I say are a MUST for using stimulants:
 
If you still run into circulation, vasoconstriction, blood flow, or brain fog issues... then look into Perfusia Plus.
If you run into fatigue, lethargy, purple nail beds, pale skin, dark black bags under your eyes, weak nails, easy bruising or bleeding... then look into Ferrasorb or just straight up go for a full on Prenatal Multivitamin which has a lot of iron too.
For inflammation, brain fog that isn't made better by B-Vitamins nor Iron, autoimmune issues in general, and generalized weakness across the body... then you can also consider Creatine or Fish Oil
Try Jarrow R-ALA, good evidence for help with neuropathy
BioAstin Hawaiian Astaxanthin 4mg, 120 Count - Hawaiian Grown Premium Antioxidant - Supports Recovery from Exercise + Joint, Skin, Eye Health Naturally https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0039ITKU6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_.y5ODbMRHYGX4
This one. I take 2 daily. And yes now that I'm thinking about it it's definitely given me a carotenoid tan.
I did a lot of research when I started and this was the best quality Astaxanthin I could find.
I haven't used that one but I think I've seen other users say it's good. I use this one:
http://www.amazon.com/TUDCA-by-Brawn-Nutrition/dp/B00DXFSKIS/ref=pd_sim_hpc_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1V80BPSQYZSTB422YSYV
I know that this one is good because I actually allowed myself to cycle so long with orals and tren that I ended up with yellow eyes. This was before I knew about TUDCA. So anyway, after being scared to death and doing serious research on learned about TUDCA and bought a lot off amazon. I took 4 pills a day for about 2 months and then got blood work. My liver values where better than they were than my very first blood test which was done before I ever touched a single AAS. So anyway, this is how I know this stuff is good stuff. I feel like I have before and after blood work plus yellow eyes to know this stuff is the bomb. I now always use it on cycle and have used with heavy doses of tren (1 G a week) plus sdrol and I'm still good to go.
My RE suggested that I take micronized DHEA at a dose of 75mg per day (25mg capsules 3x per day). I am also taking CoQ10 at 600mg per day (200mg 3x per day).
NMN PURE (300mg) | Nicotinamide Mononucleotide Supplement | NAD Booster & Antioxidant Pills | Boost Energy, Metabolism, Anti Aging, Muscle Recovery, Brain Focus & Reduce Stress + Anxiety I 60 (1 Pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VQ1T6H9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_fHZPDbY751RS5
Ultra High Purity Resveratrol Capsules - 98% Trans-Resveratrol - Support for Anti Aging - 60 Caps Reservatrol Supplement https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R634S5D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_tKZPDb83HMZTE
These brands have the correct purity, dose size, and authenticity. I wouldn't trust most brands but these are good, with stuff like this if you're not getting pure it's basically a waste of money so it's worth it
I have em set on auto subscribe so I get 15% off since I buy a lot of stuff on Amazon, so it's not as expensive in the end . Also Amazon credit card gives an additional 5% back so some ways to maximize bang for buck
I've been use those 20mg Lutein & 4mg Zeaxanthin supplement.
I’ve tried these ones before and they’re really good!
[This] (http://www.amazon.com/Jarrow-Formulas-R-Alpha-Supports-Vascular/dp/B005C99OWO?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00) is the one i got because it was linked in another thread i found however i believe its only R-Ala. Can you clarify the difference of the two?
Also, as promised, here are all the supplements I do take to ensure proper liver/kidney functioning. I mentioned this in my previous thread and someone PM'd me about it:
http://www.amazon.com/Spring-Valley-Milk-Thistle-Concentrated/dp/B0026QKEXY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1396637353&sr=8-2&keywords=milk+thistle
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000NRTWKO/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000QUL2R4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (I'm a big fan of this, seems to help in a LOT of ways)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0019H141C/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001AWWC4O/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i03?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (This is more to help combat any, uhhh, constipation from Kratom, and is good if you are worried about any fungal or bacterial things on the kratom you are getting)
And then I mentioned these strips earlier to test at home, they are a fantastic bargain:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VSMDOE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I highly recommend if you are a daily user like myself to invest in those. If you can afford kratom, you can afford that. And if you can't, let me know because I'd be happy to buy a few more boxes that have 100 in them and pass them along to people in need.
Hawthorn berry has worked for me. So has garlic pills, the kind that feature allicin. this is the kind that helped me.
If it’s your top number that’s high, try pine bark. Pycnogenol it is called. This one is good.
COQ10/Ubiquinol and Magnesium are supposed to be good too. Omega 3 oil is supposed to Make your veins loose and happy.
I’m working on figuring out what I need to take.
I go from 140’s/high 90’s down to low 120’s/80’s when I take various combinations of these.
Edit: sorry none of this is for muscle cramps. Just bp
Hope you figure out what is causing your pain and get some relief.

the candidiases fungus thrives on sugar and yeast...so basically you cut out all sugar(processed and unprocessed), dairy and grains. This means you just eat meat and vegetables.
Here is a detailed list of what to eat and not to eat
For probiotics I got caprylic acid and this probiotic.
Today I ordered this. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
I get this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079C4VJ3P?
I found the 600mg of CoQ10 on boards, so I started taking that before I even saw the RE. I told him I was taking it and he didn't comment one way or another on it. He did have me do the Vitamin D, along with prenatals and a DHA supplement that I was already on. He recommended CoQ10 for my husband for low morphology numbers, no idea if it has helped or not as he hasn't done a second SA since he started on them.
As for the acupuncture, they gave us a brochure for a specific fertility group that does acupuncture, yoga, supplements, diet/nutrition planning. But we didn't talk about it more than I have the brochure. It felt like a "do this if you want, here's a resource for you" type of thing.
FWIW, this is the CoQ10 that I take. I read a lot of reviews and priced out per 100mg and this was the one that I felt was the best balance for both. It's still not cheap, but it seemed reasonable.
I just found out I have that motherfucker!
My functional MD told me to take this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001IAEC9Q/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1PNQ3Z7C9295U&psc=1
I took this once daily! Webber CoQ10 200mg
