Piracetam

I've been taking this stuff for a month and can't give it enough praise.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piracetam
It use to be prescription only but now can be purchased as a supplement. I got mine at bulknutrition.com.
Its a nooptropic/smart drug that basically increases the blood flow to your brain and sopposedly improves communication between hemispheres of the brain.
Qualitatively it feels like a good cup of coffee but without the stimulant effects, but with more concentration as opposed to fast scatter brain thoughts. The taste is pretty terrible when you start off but I've already aquired the taste that I look forward to it.
Oxiracetam is a more powerfull , long lasting version that I'm going to switch to when the Piracetam starts running low.

Piracetam also seems to inhibit brain damage caused by a variety of factors including hypoxia and excessive alcohol consumption.
Oh good, does it mix well in a cocktail?
But seriously, how do you take this stuff, in a milk shake? It looks like you need to take 1.6-9.6 grams daily (2-12 pills daily).

Re: Piracetam

No its just a crystalin powder that disolves easily in water. 1 gram is only 1/4th a teaspoon so its not hard to take a few grams a day.
You probly could gel cap it but I would compare it to coffee or beer taste wise. The first time I tasted coffee and beer I thought they were the worst things I ever tasted.
Actually, mixing it with alcohol would be a really really bad idea. I've read a few reports that people that have drank after taking it had a massive hang over and it magnifies the effects of alcohol with more blood going to your brain.
