      I didn't particularly care about it one way or the other until I heard it obliterates all your emotions when you take a higher dosage. Been on 1800mg/day for a few weeks now. Feel physically better overall and less overemotional less often but it could just be placebo.

      I’ve known aboutashwaghanda for years and have read up on it here and then since discovering it (as well as other supplements as I do), but I always found it weird how this effect is only been mentioned recently. I’ve only heard about it recently. But when I heard about it my immediate thought was “oh someone is shilling their brand and making up effects I guess.” And I just figured all these people reporting it suddenly were getting placebo.
      This is also the first I’ve heard of that guy who sells supplements being the one to start saying this

          it's not
          it is literally the initial effective dose
          there are people who takes several times that amount
          but 1000mg is the safest dose to go daily without needing to cycle (but you should still do it, either 2 months on 2 months off or 4 months on 2 months off)

                Look up "The Big Vitamin D Mistake" and you're going to learn and realize all those scientists are moronic and been feeding you incorrect information this whole time
                Spoiler: The actual recommended value should be bare minimum 10x of that
                >In summer and spring, with 22% of uncovered skin, 1000 IU vitamin D doses are synthesized in 10-15 min of sun exposure for adults.
                More horseshit, it is impossible to get a such a general number because it assumes absolute 100% UV incidence, which doesn't happen even during summer for lots of countries, the sun meme is a major inefficient bad advice
                You're going to need spending several hours of an entire morning, with your entire body exposed, when a measly pill cá achieve that instantaneously

          Amino acid that occurs in tea and a few other things I can't remember off the top of my head. It has a 'calming' like effect and when taken with caffeine helps balance out the 'jittery' effect while still maintaining the focus effect.

            Gaba agonist if I'm not mistaken. A lot of anxiety medication, like benzodiazepines works indirectly on the gaba system through chlorine channels, so one might come to the conclusion that L-Theanine will have somewhat of the same effects, only smaller. Have tried it, and I feel like it at least makes caffeine consumption more pleasurable, other than that, no big change

        My gf gets horny whenever I want her to, so when she's around I can have sex whenever I want. I usually just get horny randomly or when she's wearing something tight. What I meant though is why would I want to be horny all the time with only my hand available? It's not a pleasant feeling for me. Going out in summer and seeing all the women in skimpy outfits is stressful. I would hate to feel like that all the time.
