In a world where enhancements gleam,
Lived a biohacker named Jonathan, oh so keen.
With his trusty wife, a vision so grand,
They answered philosophical questions across the land.
"Is beauty just skin deep, or something more?"
Jonathan's voice boomed through the mic with a roar.
"What supplements can sharpen our minds, so we think on a dime?"
The crowd buzzed with anticipation, minds aflame.
Jonathan, with a flourish, pointed to a jar,
"These nootropics, my friends, will open your mental bar."

#22 Questions
Q:
I just purchased the Piracetam Protocol almost a month ago using your links and arrived two weeks later. I started taking Piracetam with 6-8 servings of the free 1/8 teaspoon scoop that came with the package last December 24. I'm still waiting for my milligram scale to arrive. I noticed a subtle increase in focus and clarity. My questions are:
1. How long does it take for me to get the full effect of Piracetam? I'm thinking that the ones I took were not enough.
2. Should I start taking an attack dose? How many grams am I allowed to take?
3. How many grams of Rhodiola should I take? It wasn't mentioned in the protocol.
I have some questions/clarifications that I would like you to answer on your next podcast:
1. Is there any optimum time of the day that I have to take the nootropics?
2. I'm taking the piracetam in two parts, 2g after waking up in the morning , then another 2 -2.8 grams before going to work. I mixing it with grape juice to mask the taste. Will it decrease the potency of piracetam?
3. What would be the best way to cycle with the nootropics, after a month or 2 months. I'm actually planning to go for 2 months then cycle for a month or 2 months.
4. Is it ok to take ALCAR on empty stomach? I read your post about taking Rhodiola in the morning 30 minutes before meal and I'm just wondering if that would also be the case for ALCAR.
5. I'm planning to go as far as 9 grams of Piracetam daily? Would it be alright?

Q:
Lacan is even worse. I like Foucault though. Proper scholar. He shouldn't be lumped with obscurantists like Lacan and Derida but there is a general tendency to do so. This deconstruction nonsense is now deeply rooted in the US academia, so much so, that it was forced down my throat back at Ithaca College in '98. With a class disguised by the name Media Aesthetics and Analysts. Had NOTHING t do with either. It was taught by a condescending, cynical, lesbian, communist feminazi. Pure garbage. But I had to study it to get my degree.

Q:
Hey Johnny! Thanks for the heads up on your new book! I'm looking forward to that!
Maybe I can get some insight into a nootropic or a stack of nootropics for somebody that is older than a lot of people and whose brain is going to s***!
I basically just went with a combination of Procera AVH and mood for several years , and then tried Procera Advanced Brain , I read a good review of that on a website. I've been on that for maybe a couple two three months , and noticed I couldn't sleep at night unless I took it during the day. If I took it after 6 p.m. I couldn't sleep, or I would go to sleep and wake up after 2 3 hours. I can't really say as it's doing much though! Congratulations to you on your success! I hope you guys have lots of kids , if that's what you want! Your last message that I got was that you were getting married!

Q:
So does dual-n back have a transference effect to working memory tasks like word list recall(such as the one from Brainhq) or reading span? If not it seems like time could be better spent doing other things. If dual n-back improved these measures it would make me want to do it. But I haven't seen anyone say his/her before and after of both tests.

Skin in the Game biohacking consulting/coaching
As mentioned in the podcast, this is a very lean biohacking consulting/life coaching program. Here's how this would work...
- The Biohacking Consultation is 1 hour and 45 minutes total - which is actually two consulting calls.
- First Call 1 hour - Discovery & Strategizing call, I need to ask you some questions, we'll discuss your history and outline a biohacking strategy and action plan to overcome your issues.
- Second Call 45 minutes - Follow up call in 30 or 60 days to see how you're doing with the plan we outlined; how you've improved, what you're struggling with, etc
There are a few important reasons we split the time up into two calls.
- It's a significant motivation hack for you to follow through on the biohacking habits and plan we'll outline because you're accountable to me in 30 or 60 days.
- I'm incentivized to come up with an effective biohacking strategy for you because I have to talk to you after you've been following it for a month or two.
- It timeboxes us with a deadline in 30 or 60 days for you to make improvements and accomplish your goals.
Your Skin in the game here is that you're paying good money for this and you're accountable to me on another call in 30 or 60 days. You'll have to explain your lack of action if you fail to follow through.
PLEASE fill out this form
Apply for Biohacking Consultation/Coaching
Take a few minutes to answer a few questions, if your issues are far outside my areas of expertise I'll decline the consultation. My time is finite and very valuable, so I only want to spend it consulting the people I can really help. Thanks in advance for your understanding!
