I find it activating, and it even stimulates my near dead sex drive/sexual function. Also helps the body with pain a bit.
Crucially, it’s stimulating without increasing anxiety.
What other adaptogens stack well with this? I’m generally looking for stuff that is activating, pro libido, pro testosterone, pro-social, “uppers” rather than downers.
So far I’ve tried
Tongkat Ali, which seemed to mess with my hormones in weird way (nipple tingling) without actually increasing my libido. Also made me feel a bit flat/spaced out.
Cordyceps Sinensis. I tried the cheap Vitamin Shoppe brand and it made me feel a little anxious. I do await the ND version.
Ginkgo. Just gave me a headache.
Shilajit-I didn’t really like the serotonin lowering, also weirdly messed up my stomach. Could have been the version I took though.
What else we got?
(I would note I’ve only tried the GS15-4 ginseng. Awaiting Leaf extract which I believe is more activating?)
