Podcasts about nootropics

Today, we're talking about how nootropics and peptides like Semax (See-max) and Selank (SEH-lank) work together to support cognitive health, improve focus, and reduce mental fatigue. Let's start with nootropics. These are substances that are designed to support and enhance mental performance. Some work by improving memory, others help with focus, alertness, or reducing brain fog. Nootropics can be: Natural, like L-theanine or Lion's Mane Nutraceuticals, like Alpha-GPC or CDP-Choline, which support neurotransmitter production Or synthetic, like Modafinil or racetams “RASS-uh-tams”, which are often used off-label to promote wakefulness and focus Most nootropics work by affecting levels of key brain chemicals like dopamine, acetylcholine, or norepinephrine. They don't “make you smarter,” but they can improve how efficiently your brain is working—especially under stress or fatigue. Now, let's talk about peptides—specifically Selank and Semax, which are two of the most well-known nootropic peptides. Selank is more about calming and emotional regulation, while Semax leans into cognitive enhancement and brain performance. Think of Selank as the anti-anxiety sidekick and Semax as the mental sharpener. Selank works by boosting GABA activity, which helps calm the nervous system. That's why it's often used to reduce stress and anxiety without causing drowsiness or dependence — unlike traditional anti-anxiety meds. Interestingly, it also slightly increases BDNF, the brain growth factor that supports memory and learning. Semax, on the other hand, has a much stronger impact on BDNF. It's derived from ACTH, but it doesn't raise cortisol levels. Instead, it enhances BDNF, dopamine, and serotonin activity, making it great for improving focus, mental energy, and even mood. And that's what makes them such a powerful combo for some people. Selank helps create a calm, clear mental space — kind of like reducing background noise — while Semax boosts the brain's signal, improving neuroplasticity, motivation, and mental clarity. Together, they offer a full-spectrum brain support: emotional balance and cognitive performance. Whether you're dealing with brain fog, anxiety, or just want to perform at a higher level, these peptides could be worth exploring. Stacking Nootropics with Peptides One of the most popular strategies for cognitive support is to combine or stack peptides with nootropics. For example: Selank pairs well with L-theanine for calming, focused energy. L-theanine, an amino acid found primarily in green tea, promotes relaxation and reduces stress without causing drowsiness by increasing calming neurotransmitters like GABA and serotonin. Lion's Mane mushroom, a natural nootropic found in both wild and cultivated forms, can be stacked with Semax to naturally support memory, focus, and neurogenesis. Semax can be used with Alpha-GPC to support both short-term concentration and long-term brain health. Alpha-GPC (Alpha-glycerophosphocholine) is a choline-containing nutraceutical, often derived from soy or sunflower lecithin, that acts as a powerful nootropic. It increases levels of acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter involved in learning, memory, focus, and muscle control. Because of its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier efficiently, Alpha-GPC is often used to enhance cognitive function, support brain health and neuroprotection, and improve physical performance by boosting power output and recovery in athletes. Semax can also be used with CDP-Choline for memory support, brain fog, and age-related cognitive decline. It too is a nutraceutical that provides choline, which the brain uses to produce acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter essential for memory, learning, and focus. It also delivers cytidine, which converts into uridine—a compound that supports neuron repair and brain cell membrane synthesis.  Alright, so one question we get a lot is, “What's the difference between CDP-Choline and Alpha-GPC?” It's a good one—because they're both great choline sources, but they work a little differently. Alpha-GPC delivers choline more directly, which means you'll feel that boost in focus and mental energy a bit faster. It's especially handy if you're doing high-intensity brain work or even something athletic. Lastly, I also want to dive into something a lot of people are curious about, Modafinil and racetams (RASS-uh-tams).  Modafinil (Provigil) is a prescription, stimulant medication used to treat sleep disorders (e.g., narcolepsy and obstructive sleep apnea) and shift work disorder. It's also used off-label as a focus-enhancing nootropic. It works by promoting wakefulness in the CNS. Researchers don't know exactly how it works, but it appears to affect areas in the brain that control attention and wakefulness. Racetams (e.g., Piracetam, Aniracetam, or Oxiracetam) are a class of compounds that enhance acetylcholine activity and neuroplasticity, leading to better learning, memory, and focus with subtle, non-stimulant effects.  While Modafinil provides a noticeable surge in alertness and productivity, racetams offer a more gradual cognitive boost that can be ideal for sustained mental performance. Just remember, peptides provide foundational support—helping your brain repair and function better long-term. Nootropics can then layer on immediate effects, like sharper focus or improved mood.

They keep you awake but you're miserable." - Jeff Boyd Why Multitasking Is a Myth "Multitasking is a term that was made for computers. Humans cannot multitask. We can shift from one task to another in a nanosecond so it seems like we can multitask, but we are hardwired. We can only do one thing at a time." - Jeff Boyd Paraxanthine Gives You More Than Energy "Paraxanthine gives you smooth energy.

Do you sometimes experience foggy thinking? Have you ever had a concussion or been hit on the head? Last year, Lisa had a major bike accident that caused a concussion and brain inflammation. Do you know that this inflammation can also affect your mood, your thinking, your vision, your gut health, and more? What if there was a test that could determine how much inflammation you have in your body based on markers? Our guest today, researcher Regan Archibald, Lac, FMP,  talks about specific blood tests which do just that. Regan is one of the leading Peptide, Functional Medicine, and Longevity Specialists in the US. His award-winning center, EastWest Health, has performed thousands of comprehensive blood tests which include nearly 100 important markers that allow Regan and his team to understand the root cause of health issues. Regan is an international speaker and is the author of nine books including “The Peptide Blueprint” and “Ageless Future.”  Even if you have never experienced head trauma, you may have had a health crisis at some point. The crisis can sometimes cause chronic illness. Regan became obsessed with studying peptides in the body after more than six concussions. He grew up on a ranch in Idaho where he rode dirt bikes, skateboards, mountain bikes, snowboards, and participated in other dangerous activities. After numerous concussions, his entire personality changed. He was no longer interested in school and studying, he found himself with a different group of friends, he was even dressing differently. He always had ADD, but found it was getting much worse. About a year later, he attended a conference where he heard a lecture about stem cells. Emergency Room doctors talked about using medication, but another doctor talked about a method of healing the brain by using a specific nasal spray. Regan became the first researcher and first person outside of a clinical trial to use this method for internasal stem cells. After his treatment, he slept very deeply and woke up able to quiet his mind for the first time. It was such a profound experience, he started researching ways to progress this method. Through studying stem cells, he learned about peptides that could help with regeneration, boosting the immune system, building muscles, and so much more.   Scientists have identified about 7,000 different peptides in the body, but they become somewhat dormant as we age. We lose the ability to receive the signal. The receptors change and genes get turned off, but it's now possible to turn them back on! If you've been exposed to harmful chemicals, had an accident, been under stress, or even had an infection, peptides can be very beneficial to healing. Toxins stay in the fat of our bodies and brains and peptides can help with releasing harmful elements.  Regan has developed specialized blood tests that can determine which peptides can be the most beneficial. Most people have chronic inflammation. This usually shows up in the gut first. The Vagus Nerve gets disrupted, and disease migrates into the digestive system. When inflammation cannot get flushed out of the brain, certain signals begin to disfunction. Sleep is the best detoxification for our brains. It's very important to recover from concussions for optimal brain health. The brain immediately tries to cope and therefore adapts. It turns off and on certain cells. There is so much research on aging and how the brain begins to shrink, but this does not have to be the case.  Regan's team can run specific lab tests and spend time explaining the details and results with you individually. If you are interested in learning more, or participating in a blood test as well as meeting with a consultant, pls visit https://agelessfuture.com/lisa/ You will be asked to fill out a form, then you can meet with a specialist.

Are you struggling with focus and productivity? There may be an alternative to traditional ADHD medications. In this Wellness Revolution podcast episode, I am joined by Dan Freed, the founder of Thesis, to discuss his journey from high school dropout to successful entrepreneur, driven by his quest to find effective solutions for ADHD.  We dive into the science behind nootropics and how they differ from traditional stimulants. We also discuss Thesis' rigorous testing process to ensure product quality and safety and how to find the right nootropic formula for your unique brain chemistry.  Dan Freed founded Thesis, a company dedicated to creating personalized nootropic formulas to help others optimize their cognitive performance. He was expelled from preschool and later dropped out of high school due to struggles with ADHD, to become a successful entrepreneur and cognitive health advocate. After years of working as a chef, including at a Michelin three-star restaurant in France, Dan discovered nootropics while preparing for the GMAT. This discovery led to a dramatic turnaround in his life, enabling him to score in the 99th percentile on the GMAT and subsequently earn Master's degrees from Yale and INSEAD.    Thank you to our sponsors: ReNewU Interest List: Join for free here https://products.ambershaw.com/signature-waitlist  #ThankYouNext Event: https://products.ambershaw.com/thankyounextv1    Find more from Dan Freed: Website:  https://takethesis.com/  Instagram: @takethesis   Find more from Amber: Instagram: @msambershaw TikTok: @msambershaw Website: ambershaw.com
