RE: Hotwiring My Brain With a 9-Volt - And Other Bizarre Things That Have Made My Brain Work Better

seriously though, cool stuff . I purchased a synthetic ingredient that occurs naturally in matcha tea called L-Theanine
it's supposed to help with focus and adhd issues. I mixed it in with my powdered matcha tea.. I should test it more. I couldn't ever tell if it worked sometimes or was placebo

Sort:  

I've also used L-Theanine. I found it to be most effective when taken with a caffeine pill at a ratio of 2 Theanine:1 Caffeine. I was also suspicious of the placebo effect, but when I played with the dosage I noticed a difference in efficacy, which I don't think would align with it being a placebo effect.
