balance Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 http://thosewithvisualsnow.yuku.com/topic/7009/Brahmi-Bacopa I wrote this on the visual snow board, I don't feel the need to re-write the whole thing here. This herb may be worth looking into. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Smith Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Hey balance this looks very interesting indeed! Im tempted to try it, i wonder if anyone else here has tried or heard about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedayillsailagain Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Bump. I'm currently not taking anything (... first time in ages), and wondering if this is worth a shot.Anyone here taking it or took it in the past, and experienced benefits (not visually per se, looking more for nootropic/anxiolytic effects)?Seems that benefits are slight to mild at best..

Syntheso Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 I've been taking it for the last three months, full spectrum. I have noticed mild improvements from it with regards to cognition, maybe anxiolysis. It does seem to make me more clear headed. If I'm honest, I am continuing to take it due to its theoretical benefits as opposed to highly noticeable symptom relief. I am not sure I will buy any more when I run out, but it will be interesting to see if anything changes and how much, if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puppeteer Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 I tried it last year, before my second MDMA trip and a month or so of Ritalin, and it gave me intense brain fog. Thought I'd try it again earlier this year from a more reputable source at a lower dose, got the same thing. Doesn't seem like it's for me, unfortunately. The memory improvement would've been a blessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedayillsailagain Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Alright; thanks for the feedback. Think I'm gonna go with 50mg of D-cycloserine instead.. see where that takes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puppeteer Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Yeah. There are a lot of nootropics out there, especially herbal ones, which seem to only provide minimal, subtle benefits compared to more potent options, and I think brahmi's one of them. If it doesn't conflict with anything in your existing stack and it definitely isn't doing anything bad, it can't hurt, but it's probably unlikely to do anything worthwhile on its own. Very interested to hear how d-cycloserine goes. Though, won't it arrive at a similar time to the NSI you ordered off eBay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedayillsailagain Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Hmm I don't know. Whichever comes first I'll try first.Still waiting for an answer about whether it's racemic or merely (very) impure, before I order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puppeteer Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Can I ask what you differences you expect to see from d-cycloserine from your experience with sarcosine? Feeling exhausted and trying to work out why d-cycloserine is a better bet given their similar MOAs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntheso Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 I got brain fog from bacopa monneiri the first couple of times. It antagonises the d2 receptor IIRC. But I remember that going away after a few days of taking it, then everything was good from then onwards.ODISA - Great! I was trying to get some d-cycloserine last night. Interested to hear how it goes. Where did you get it from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedayillsailagain Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Well I inquired with Newmind; the only place I know for now that sells it. I don't mind if it's racemic; L-cyclo should be anxiolytic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
