Used to take KSM-66 Ashwagandha(500mg). Recently started caffiene l-theanine in 1:2 ratio twice a day. It’s effects are pretty noticeable but it does make me kinda gassy. Or is it just me? What do you guys take if y’all even take any?

    The most effective supplement with the biggest impact I’ve ever tried is plain old magnesium oxide (the expensive forms are a waste of money, and you’ll actually absorb less elemental magnesium from them. Just take the oxide form with a meal to avoid the shits).

    It’s difficult to get enough magnesium in most diets, and I found that ensuring adequate magnesium intake had the effect of making my mind just feel sharper (that effect is especially prominent if you’re supplementing vitamin-D as well, since that tends to use up magnesium in its conversion process, IIRC).

    nothing else has had such a noticeable, non-placebo benefit (except Vitamin D if you’re deficient, which will make you crazy depressed without getting sun or supplementing).
