Description

INTRODUCTION

Noopept is one of the strongest nootropics available on the market today. It provides a boost to overall cognition and has a slight psychostimulatory effect. Contrary to most nootropics, Noopept’s effects start within mere minutes of ingestion making it an excellent choice right before mentally demanding tasks.

Noopept is a nootropic supplement that’s been getting a lot of attention lately. It has close ties to the popular Racetam family of nootropics that are known for their benefits on cognitive ability as well their neuroprotective properties. What makes Noopept a unique nootropic in your toolbox is that its effects are felt almost immediately after ingestion.

Noopept as a nootropic is commonly compared to Piracetam and Aniracetam. It works via a similar mechanism as Piracetam but is estimated to be 1,000 to 5,000 times more potent. This doesn’t imply that its effect is more profound, it just attunes itself better to the brain’s receptors. As a result, Noopept can be taken in relatively smaller doses to produce similar effects as that of Piracetam.

BENEFITS AND EFFECTS

Memory and Learning

Noopept’s most emphasised benefit is how it can enhance memory and improve the learning process. Noopept, like Piracetam, assists with memory formation, but with additional benefits not present in the latter, which are memory consolidation and memory retrieval. Noopept facilitates the proper management of all forms of stimuli as they are processed by the brain, which allows for better memory retrieval. In other words, signals being processed by our senses are more streamlined as they are transported into our brains in the form of memory.

Neuroprotective Properties

Studies show that Noopept has high neuroprotective properties. The stimulation of the neurons caused by the health supplement prevents oxidative damage and apoptosis in the human brain. Many patients dealing with cognitive impairment regularly can benefit from a regular dosage of Noopept to prevent further dissociative cognitive functions.

Increased levels of NGF

NGF (Nerve Growth Factor) is a unique protein in the body that is involved in the growth, maintenance, and survival of nerve cells, including brain cells. NGF is also considered to be a key player in neurogenesis, your body’s ability to create new cells. By increasing NGF levels in the brain, we support the mechanisms involved in neurogenesis which improves the performance of neural networks within the brain, allowing for new neural connections. The result means potentially improved mental abilities in virtually all areas of cognition.

Increased levels of BDNF

BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) is another protein in the body that has a similar role to the NGF mentioned above. BDNF is considered one of the most important molecules involved in memory, playing a vital role in both short-term and long-term memory formation.

Improves Associations between Brain Hemispheres

Both the right and left hemispheres of the brain have their own localised functions. Through the use of Noopept, each of these functions can be enhanced through the synthesis of various memories, ideas, and stimuli. There are nuances among these functions that enhance the way we think. That is why a lot of people have claimed that their quality of life had a significant improvement when taking Noopept in regular doses.

RESEARCH DOSAGE

Due to its incredible potency, the recommended dosage of Noopept is small, usually 10 to 20 mg taken as often as three times daily. Dosage should not exceed 40 mg in a 24-hour period. Since the body metabolises Noopept rapidly, and it has a very short half-life in the human body, it is preferable to take multiple small doses versus one large dose, extend Noopept’s acute effects. When starting out with Noopept, we recommend a starting with the minimum effective dose, with careful observation, before increasing dosage. Each person should determine their own optimum
dosage.

In powder form, Noopept is usually placed under the tongue or mixed with water and drunk. Effects are felt quickly after administration, as fast as within 15 minutes. According to the dosing label that comes in the packet insert in Russia, it is recommended to take Noopept for 1.5-3 weeks and then, if necessary, to begin another cycle after a 1-month break.

Alternatively, many nootropic users follow a cycle of 56 days on and 4 days off. Do not take Noopept late in the evening as its energising effects may interfere with sleep.

SIDE EFFECTS

For all the positive effects that Noopept may have on your cognitive health, it has only a few occasionally reported minor side effects that should be noted such as headaches, restlessness, dizziness, and irritability.
These are most common when Noopept is taken in high doses.

Further evidence also suggests that Noopept can enhance the effects of stimulants such as amphetamines so caution is advised.
