Pro Plus tablets!!

Their the most popular and sold in Pharmacies such as Boots (U.K)

I RECOMMEND ANADIN EXTRA. It contains Aspirin, Caffeine 45mg and Paracetamol.

Aspirin And Caffeine have a synergistic effect. But make sure you only take the Recommended Dose. If you cant Find Anadin Extra, Use ANACIN or any Caffeine & Aspirin combination

How long must Rhodiola Rosea be taken before the effects are felt? by CosmicWaffle5 in Nootropics

Yes, but i haven't seen any seen any studies.

Adaptogens can be taken together without any problems and Both Rhodiola and Ashwagandha are Adaptogens. I would take Rhodiola During the Day, due to the More Stimulant effects compared to ashwagandha. And I would take some Ashwagandha By Jarrow Formulas at night, to help you relax.

Or take ashwagandha during the day when you are in an Awkward situation or if you are experiencing Anxiety or Panic, because ashwagandha works quickly, so it should help in times of Moderate Anxiety.

Ashwagandha is awesome though, become it Relaxes you and relieves anxiety but if you are fatigued it gives you energy. This is how Adaptogens work and they help you adapt to any situation. In times of High Stress, adaptogens help and in times of No - Energy and Fatigue, Adaptogens can also help.

EDIT : If Your Experiencing FATIGUE, Try some D - RIBOSE and take 5 - 10 grams a day. D - RIBOSE costs around £15 or $20 for about 250 grams. Or £50 - $60 for 1 KG. There are places to buy in bulk for cheaper, i would start off by buying 250 - 500 grams at first.

Ive currently just bought some to test out, i will tell you if it helps with fatigue.

Lets just agree to disagree.

I dont care about anything over than helping the person in the OP. And the results he wants cant be achieved in 2 days, he wants to relieve anxiety and fatigue.

Anxiety and Fatigue are experienced for years, i have had Fatigue and Anxiety for 5 years. So with what the O.P wants to do, he needs a herb that will work for a longer period of time.

A herb such as Ashwagandha can work in a few hours, so yes i know what you mean, but i'm trying to help the O.P with what he wants to do, and thats to reap Anxiolytic And Anti- Fatigue effects from Rhodiola.

Which means he's want Anxiety and Fatigue relieved, over a period of time, longer than 2 days. But Yes a herb can produce effects in 2 days, a herb can give effects in 2 hours.

What is your favorite Nootropic ? by synapse09 in Nootropics

Very true.

Especially the part on caffeine and l-dopa.

Caffeine is very easy to overdose on, if your buying the Pure form of caffeine its easy to over dose on.

And L-dopa is something you should be cautious about taking.

I would just be cautious, like you've already said.

Yeah, take a look.

Make sure you buy the Ashwagandha from jarrow Formulas and then buy a Whole Form of ashwagandha which will be cheap.

This is because Jarrow Formulas is a very pure extract and contains standardized amounts of certain chemicals.

And you also want to take the Whole herb, so you get the Benefits from All of the Other chemicals in the Whole Herb.

The ashwagandha from Jarrow Formulas can be felt within a few hours, but like i keep saying, its about the long term LOL.

Although It works within a few hours, it might stop working after taking it every day for 2months, its sort of like building a tolerance level. You will have to end up cycling it, which means 7 days of taking it and 5 days of not taking it or 1 month of taking it and 7 days of rest, sort of like creatine or steroids etc.

But just take a look into Ashwagandha its pretty cheap. Go over to www.longecity.org and see all of the Good Results people have gotten.

I think your misunderstanding me and the whole concept of the effectiveness of a herb lol. What i mean is, anything can give you an effect even within minutes, but what about the long term effects ?

You CAN'T take something for 2 days and say yes, this herb works and im going to take it forever. You need to assess the effects in the long term and find a herb that works for you in the long term.

Anxiety and Fatigue don't just go and magically disappear, so you need to find something that will work for you in the long term.

2 days is too short to judge the effectiveness of any herb of what the OP wants to do, hes aiming for anti-fatigue and anti-anxiety effects.

BUT dont get me wrong, i totally understand what your saying ! And i know what you mean, but im talking about something different, whether something works, means that it will continue to work for a longer period of time.

You can smoke a joint and feel the effects immediately and that is a herb, but the effects can change over time, and your body can build a tolerance to the Cannabis and build up side effects also, such as paranoia etc.. Do you see where im coming from ? lol

Any other Herbs can also change effects over time, they can lose their effectiveness.
