Creating a synergistic supplement stack is harder than you think - in this month’s podcast episode, Emiel and Erika discuss Nootropics Depot’s strategy for creating powerful and effective supplement stacks. Bioassaying is the first step to creating a stack that works for you. In simple terms, this means taking a product on its own for a few days in a row, to observe its effects on your mental and physical state. Once you’ve gotten familiar with a single ingredient, it's time to add the next product into the mix, which forms the basis of your stack. If this process sounds too time consuming for you, don’t sweat it! Nootropics Depot has created a catalogue of excellently formulated stack products (InfiniLyte, Sleep Support, Eurycomax to name a few) which combine botanical ingredients, vitamins and minerals to achieve the ideal balance in a single product. Tune into the podcast episode to learn about Nootropics Depot’s secrets of stacking, earned through years of trial, error, and experience!Shop Nootropics Depot's Top Sellers here: https://nootropicsdepot.com/top-sellers/
