Oxiracetam
The information provided in this presentation is intended solely for healthy individuals. Anyone whose health is in question should consult a qualified professional before considering integrating any nootropics into their daily routine.
What is Oxiracetam?
Oxiracetam is in the racetam family (similar to piracetam) and is used for increasing the ability to learn, or prevent cognitive decline. It is a synthetic
nootropic that has lots of solid research supporting its use to help delay cognitive decline and reduce the
adverse effect of aging.
How does it work?
Positive AMPA modulator (similar to Ani/Piracetam) Also increases glutamate, acetylcholine, and D-Aspartic
Acid release from activated neurons
Improves hippocampus-mediated learning efficiency by increasing the amount of membrane-bound protein kinase C
Peak serum levels obtained around 1-3 hours post ingestion (based on single oral doses)
What this means for you.
Cognitive Benefits
Important note: There has yet to be any concrete evidence produced by the science community that young humans free of cognitive impairments can benefit from oxiracetam, but the anecdotal (feedback from users) has built this nootropic up to be a safe and effective ingredient to add to any existing nootropic stack. Many people refer to their experience as “waking their senses up.”
Other reports often include improved memory and learning, enhanced ability to speak confidently and fluently, overall sense of joy and happiness.
Oxiracetam is one of the more pronounced nootropics that people tend to feel, and it is not uncommon for people to consider it in their top 3 favorites. This is a great addition to a novice user looking to upgrade their existing stack.
How much Oxiracetam is needed?
One paper that quantitatively analyzed oxiracetam in human plasma found that a single dose of 800mg was able to reach peak levels within 60minutes (another study suggested 150minutes)
This is right around the range that I recommend over at The Brain Bulwark depending on what other supplements are being included
Potential Risks
Safety / Side Effects
Human intervention studies have shown that daily oral doses up to 1600mg have no side-effects
This is not a guarantee, as there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to predicting side effects
This is simply a positive sign that this supplement can be used safely with very few concerns
As always, the key here is responsible use. Once you try experimenting beyond the recommended doses, you are most likely inviting some unwanted sides.
Best Nootropic Retailers
There's a ton of distributors and suppliers but only a select few that I consider responsible and proactive with their quality control and sourcing.
Peak Nootropics, despite a somewhat limited selection, has great prices, posted CoA's (evidence that their products are tested for purity and contamination) and great customer service. It is a relatively small store, but that's just as much a good thing.
Health Supplement Wholesalers Is my other favorite store. One of the best selections available and fantastic quality. They are very responsive with questions and that goes a long way in my book. Be sure to check both out and find out which better suits your preferences (price, selection, etc.).
OxiracetamA great second step into the world of nootropics. Solid scientific support to show it is safe, and a ton of user feedback that suggests it is noticeably more potent than Piracetam. If one can afford it, Oxiracetam becomes quite the compliment to a stack already utilizing Piracetam and other nootropics.
