Ever since I saw the movie, “Limitless,” I have wondered anew about using nootropic supplements to help augment my cognitive and other mental functions. Middle age has a way of enabling one to contemplate on recapturing the glory days of youth, including the mental sharpness (relatively speaking) of student days.

Knowing nothing much about the subject, questions naturally arose. Such as, how to choose nootropics, how to build the so-called nootropic stack, what are the different types and how to take with how much dosage, what are the safety issues, and so on and so forth.

Well, I think I found a guide that is a good starting point in my exploration, and hopefully it will benefit others as well. Here’s the link:
