Two questions I get a lot from people who are new to Biohacking and cognitive enhancers are...

Which Smart Drugs actually work and have science behind them?Which Nootropic should I get started with?

My answer to both questions is the same: Piracetam

Something that might surprise you…

I actually don’t get paid affiliate commissions if you buy Piracetam via the credible sources I identify in the meta-analysis article, at least not currently. This is because regulation has scared away all but a few vendors of quality Piracetam. And a few of them have actually kicked me out of their affiliate programs because the empirically validated benefits of this Smart Drug are so fantastic that they put vendors in an odd position: if they are even affiliated with someone speaking frankly about Piracetam, they expose themselves to crushing regulation. The bureaucratic bullies in Big Government who ultimately serve Big Pharma and who come in and tell supplement vendors: “You’re not allowed to talk about the benefits of your product!” Welcome to Statist Absurdistan!

This 4000-word article is the result of my +10 years of using and researching Piracetam. If it compels you to try Piracetam and use it according to the protocols I describe here, and it really unleashes greatness for you (as it has for numerous other Biohackers), please send me a “Thank You” note. Or you can support my work on Substack for as little as $7/month, which helps me stay motivated to produce these deep-dive research pieces. You can make a one-time donation of $7, or sign up for a monthly or yearly membership to get sunk-cost motivation working for you!

With that preamble out of the way...
