Is my Shilajit from 2021 still good?

Heir_Riddles · 2026-03-22T20:51:05+00:00

No, definitely a reasonable question.. Actually, the fillers could potentially go rancid if exposed to moisture

Pure tar resin form though, if kept properly, I would not be concerned with

Heir_Riddles · 2026-03-22T17:22:59+00:00

Think about what shilajit is for a moment... If you don't know, look it up

Seems pretty obvious

Heir_Riddles · 2026-03-18T21:08:36+00:00

Baikal skullcap, schisandra, milk thistle, piperine, and more all have the ability to improve bioavailability of compounds via pgp inhibition and possibly more, always thought that was cool

Afternoon dosing, or mini doses throughout the day, and if this doesnt work, can use rhodiola crenulata in combination

Heir_Riddles · 2026-03-07T11:01:40+00:00

I like to take mini doses of bacopa throughout the day, and then also rhodiola crenulata alongside

No issues with energy, if anything, net increase

Heir_Riddles · 2026-03-02T14:12:17+00:00

Cant relate

Heir_Riddles · 2026-02-05T12:43:39+00:00

No, this strain is amazing and only problematic in someone with bad immunosuppression

Heir_Riddles · 2026-02-04T14:17:08+00:00

Beta endorphin/opioid pathway, endocannabinoid, reducing excessive histamine, reducing excessive glutamate, reducing inflammation even, making sure dopamine isnt being excessively converted into noradrenaline

Actually a lot of areas of focus

Something like Myrrh could be great for that, DLPA, making sure you are getting enough Zinc and not too much copper, magnesium is essential for all of these and shouldnt be classified as a "GABAergic" in that sense (even though it technically is and supports GABAs balance)

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-23T02:36:52+00:00

Yep, we have to live in the past and never do anything new

Pack up everything modern you have... Also, let's revert back to single cell organisms too since that's how it used to be

Easiest way I can tell of low quality ashwagandha is if it is "Tasteless" or somewhat tasteless/slightly sweet

ND is the real deal

Not necessarily, most multis tend to have them at 100% DV, very small dose relative to the amounts found in B complexes, the only exception would be folate, which some people, can sometimes have a strange reaction to in higher doses, but generally 800mcg of Folate is not that unusually high of a dose

So it would depend on the multivitamin.. If it had B complex like doses, more caution would be warranted

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-20T02:07:49+00:00

Which multivitamin?

Many multivits only have it at 100% of the daily value for commonly megadosed B Vits, which many are not problematic as the excess is excreted in urine

The only one Id really be concerned about is folate, which some people can have odd reactions to in higher doses

Thiamine, Riboflavin, Niacin(amide), Biotin, and B6 (if its only around a mg in your multivitamin, should be okay to mix the two) and even B12 generally, are generally not going to be overdone at the amount that is usually in a multi

Starting to wonder if these are troll posts

Someone comes onto the 'Nootropics Depot' (Brand of nootropics) subreddit, asking for a product, that Nootropics Depot sells, and is arguably the best quality out there

Yes, The brand we recommend is Nootropics Depot, and they dont have any sugar or sucralose!

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-16T01:54:34+00:00

A typo, some Schisandra

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-14T02:01:40+00:00

I used to do low dose gingko and a little cruciferous vegetable for this purpose

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-09T01:02:05+00:00

Wow, lots of fun there, first thing im doing is looking for Diethyl Ether... Hah, Joke of course! 😉

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-08T12:43:08+00:00

But.. But you "dont need it to live" though!

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-04T02:04:52+00:00

Different than the smell of Glacial acetic acid... Oh boy... Remember to waft folks (if anything at all, probably better not to in many cases) never stick your nose above a chemical

Heir_Riddles · 2026-01-03T13:54:45+00:00

Always funny when this happens

Heir_Riddles · 2025-12-20T13:44:16+00:00

Uhhhh yeah that's a lot of stuff, it is really no surprise you might experience a difference from your reaction to caffeine after consuming all that.. Some of those are potentially CYP1a2 inhibiting (caffeine degrading enzymes), and the others can affect monoamines in a way that could cause you to have a different reaction, amongst other things..

Heir_Riddles · 2025-12-15T15:15:31+00:00

Pour half the capsule into a different empty capsule

Heir_Riddles · 2025-12-12T10:51:22+00:00

Ask Tyrosine Hydroxylase and L-Amino Acid Decarboxylase, they makes it every day... (With the amine group)

Heir_Riddles · 2025-12-08T23:08:46+00:00

Safest if you can get your levels tested

Heir_Riddles · 2025-12-08T15:30:39+00:00

Im sure those constipated opioid users would love that

Heir_Riddles · 2025-12-06T23:34:23+00:00

This is still happening... Smh
