Noopept?

Noopept is closely related to the nootropics within the racetam class. It is a peptide-derived compound that produces greater bioavailability than race compounds. It has a similar method of action to racetams, but is known to potentially 1000 times stronger than Piracetam.
It is a nootropic with neuroprotective properties. In animal studies, it has been shown to restore memory due to hypoxia (which is when deprived of oxygen). It is known to help with anxiety levels, sleep disorders, emotional instability and irritability. There have also been outcomes that have a positive effect on attention span and learning abilities.

Noopept History
Noopept is the trade name of the chemical compound and N-phenylacetyl-L-prolylglycine ester.
After the creation of Piracetam in the early 1960s, the USSR was interested in creating its own supplements to increase the intellectual capabilities of its astronauts.
Thus, GVS-111 or Noopept, was created in the mid-1970s as a cognitive enhancer that says it is less than 1000 times stronger than Piracetam.
The name Noopept (in Russian Ноопепт) was registered and the formula was patented by pharmaceutical pharmastandard JSC in the mid-nineties.
Today Noopept is sold over-the-counter in Russia as well as several neighboring counties and is used to treat various cognitive problems.
It was patented in the United States in 1995 using the same chemical formula used in the Russian formula and sold as a dietary supplement.
The only difference between the Noopept in Russia and the US That in the United States Noopept has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for any use of medical treatments.

How to use Noopept
Since Noopept is so potent, it only needs a small dose. It is important that you adhere to the recommended dose and be responsible in terms of how much is given. You can mix the powder in water or take Noopept sublingually under your tongue. In order to obtain a more accurate dose, invest in an electronic scale or microscoop.
If you are a beginner, it is not recommended that others stacking other nootropics with Noopept. For more experienced users, a hill source is often a good choice for stacking. For example, Citicoline or Alpha GPC. If you have any concerns, you can consult a doctor about the proper dosage.

How does Noopept work?
Since the method of action is similar to gusts, the acetylcholine system is targeted. Noopept works with the NDMA and AMPA receptor sites, providing their nootropic benefits. Once Noopept is given, it is absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract. Then it reaches the blood-brain barrier where an effervescence effect begins.
The glutamate receptor sites are directed, inhibiting the breakdown of glutamate. Effective cognitive function is directly related to glutamate levels. It is believed that this system is crucial for learning, memory and processes related to intelligence.
Noopept also increases oxygen levels in the brain, providing a sense of clarity. Glucose is essential for brain power, and Noopept also increases glucose metabolism. This boost in brain power also contributes to higher levels of concentration, clarity and focus.

Benefits of Noopept
Noopept is very powerful, therefore many benefits are experienced. Remember, you only need a small dose to benefit from its effects.
Memory is improved by increasing learning capabilities. In addition, the rate of recovery is improved after administration. It seems to be especially effective with regard to long-term memory. It is also said that problem-solving skills improve because of an increase in acetylcholine.
An increase in mental energy is experienced. This allows users to think more clearly, improving their general attention ability and focus.
Supports brain health by acting as a neuroprotector. Working as an antioxidant, it helps detoxify the brain. Damage to brain cells is reduced, preventing cell death. Nerve growth also increases, leading to better overall brain health.
Brain communication improves, developing new synapses that connect the two hemispheres of the brain. The two hemispheres of the brain also increase communication. This helps improve verbal communication.
Growing research suggests that Noopept will be able to help in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Laboratory rats are showing nerve growth after being administered with Noopept. It may be possible to repair damaged cells associated with Alzheimer's and other related cognitive disorders.

Side effects
Side effects are limited when Noopept is taken as recommended. The dose should be approached with caution, since Noopept is so strong. With that said, Noopept has been marked as safe with clinical trials. When taken in the proper dose, the toxicity levels are low and the results are effective.
When taken in high doses, users can experiment; Headaches, fatigue, nausea, and trouble sleeping. Dosage is the key aspect here. This supplement needs to be treated with care and understanding. To combat headaches, try taking Noopept in a stack with a choline supplement.
As always, consult your doctor if you are planning to take Noopept. If you are taking other medications, ask if there will be any significant interactions. Currently, no hazardous interactions have been reported. However, this does not exclude the possibility.

Recommended dose
Since Noopept is so potent, it is important to start with a small dose. You can slowly increase your dose over time. It is recommended that you start with as little as 5 mg. You can then take 5 mg two or three times a day, see how you feel.
The typical dose is 10 mg to 30 mg per day. Do not exceed 60 mg daily as it may over stimulate glutamate receptors. As always, talk to your doctor if you have any concerns.
