Blink Get's UNIQUE: Pyritinol Style!

[Branch Chain Blink]

-Description-

Pyritinol (pyridoxine disulfide, pyrithioxine) is a derivative of the B vitamin pyridoxine hcl. Chemically it is 2 pyridoxine molecules bonded together by a disulfide bridge. It was created as a unique compound to enhance cognition and has been used for well over 40 years in Europe. Despite its structural similarities to the vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine) they work chemically very different and Pyritinol has no B-6 activity.

Is the way I'm taking it alright? One upon waking up and one before I study?

you're dosing scheme is good as far as I know...

[Branch Chain Blink]

you're dosing scheme is good as far as I know...

Alright, well I just took my first dose (wanted to eat before I took it). I have class in an hour, so I'll report my first findings afterwards.

[CognitiveNutrition]

Alright, well I just took my first dose (wanted to eat before I took it). I have class in an hour, so I'll report my first findings afterwards.

Yeah it looks fine for a first timer. Start low and go from there.

[Branch Chain Blink]

Alright just got done with my first class after taking my first dose of Pyritinol.

Focus:(7/10) Noticed a slight improvement in focus. I got less distracted by things happening during class so it definitely had an effect here.
Concentration:(9/10) Concentration was great, I was able to keep my attention on the professor/lecture the whole time. The only thing was I was in an extremely uncomfortable desk which hurt my lower back. That's the only reason I couldn't give concentration a 10.
Memory:(10/10) As of right now, I really remember everything we just went over.
Information Processing:(10/10) The information we learned today was pretty easy to learn, so I'll give this a 10.
Multi-Tasking Abilities:(10/10) Definitely easier than usual to take notes and listen to the lecture at the same time.
Mental Alertness:(8/10) Going along with focus and concentration, i did notice a slight increase in mental alertness. I was definitely less distracted, which led to me being able to concentrate on the lecture.

Overall, I think the product led to a noticeable increase in my ability to learn today, so I'm happy with it so far. I'm taking my next dose in about a half hour for my pretty much all night study session. We'll see how that goes.

[Branch Chain Blink]

Taking a break from my ridiculous study session and decided to log the last 3 hours.

Focus:(10/10) PROFOUND effect on my focus level. It seemed like my mind was completely cleared, and for about two hours I honestly did not do anything (no AIM, no youtube, no BB.com), I got a bunch of studying done. SO happy with this.
Concentration:(10/10) Again, concentration was awesome. I didn't let myself get distracted by anything.
Memory:(9/10) I really feel like the product is having a really positive effect on my memory. It could just be placebo, but I just got done reviewing/studying about 5 different works, and I remember all of them easily.
Information Processing:(10/10) Sorta goes along with memory. I processed it very well, mostly because of the 0 distractions I had during the couple hours.
Multi-Tasking Abilities:(N/A) I had to go with N/A on this one, because really all I did was study the entire time. Nothing else. I think this is actually a positive for the product because I was so concentrated on studying that I had nothing to multi-task.
Mental Alertness:(8/10) Again, pretty mentally alert. Sometimes when I'm studying it feels like my brain just shuts down, but I didn't get that feeling at all.

The effects have pretty much worn off now, but that was probably one of the best study sessions I've gotten since I've been at school. Incredibly happy with this product as of now. Unfortunately I have another few hours of studying ahead of me, which I'm not looking forward to.

Just a note to anyone in college or who will be attending college, never take any classes having to do with the Enlightenment period. SO boring. Montaigne's essays are the most jumbled, incoherent stupidity that I've ever read.

[Branch Chain Blink]

Alright took one in the morning before class, then after class did some studying before my test that I just got finished taking.


Focus:(7/10) Not bad, I always feel a little groggy for this early class, and it wasn't too bad today. Noticed a bit of a difference in focus and was able to take better notes I think.
Concentration:(7/10) Same as focus. Didn't notice much of a difference
Memory:(9/10) Again, I remembered basically everything I studied last night. Positive memory effect.
Information Processing:(10/10) Was able to easily comprehend and understand my professors lecture today.
Multi-Tasking Abilities:(9/10) Again, seemed easier than normal to listen and take notes.
Mental Alertness:(8/10) Like I said, I'm usually groggy for my morning class and not able to easily pay attention, but today I felt sharp and ready to go.

My second dose will be later when I study for my Human Genetics test tomorrow and my International Relations midterm on Friday.




EDIT: If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask. The logs a little lonely :'(

I'm following along. Good log so far, love the banner. Let us know how the Human Genetics test went, I actually took that class last semester.

[kieltyka34]

very informative thus far...do you have experience with any other nootropics?

[AronP24]

You may want to try 2 caps before studying. I'll be curious to see your results.

Ouch. I've never went higher than 1,200 mg at once.

Wow, that's incredible lol. What made you want to try and take so many?

I'll do that tomorrow before I study for my midterm.

[Branch Chain Blink]

Still trying to write my paper for my IR class, but done with genetics studying for now.

Focus:(5/10) Didn't really notice much of a difference here honestly.
Concentration:(5/10) Same as focus.
Memory:(8/10) It was pretty difficult stuff, as it dealt a lot with chemistry which I'm usually pretty bad at, but I'm remembering it pretty well.
Information Processing:(8/10) Like I said, it was pretty difficult but I think I got it down.
Multi-Tasking Abilities:(7/10) I got bored in the middle of studying so I decided to play some poker. It was a long tournament so I studied a bit at the end. MTing was pretty good, was able to study and play fairly easily.
Mental Alertness:(5/10) Nothing more than usual here.

I'm going to take 2 pills before I study tomorrow though, we'll see if that brings any change.

For me only 1.2 grams at once gives me a quite noticeable effect I've tried lower doses but it didnt do much for me.

[AronP24]

because im still looking for something that works for me..that, however, was NOT the proper way to go about that

[CognitiveNutrition]

I would generally not recommend taking higher doses than ever studied in humans.

hahaha.


Well I'll try 2 caps tomorrow, and then 3 caps the next time I study and see what works.

Those quotes in your sig are hilarious. Does he say ridiculous **** like that all the time during games or what?

[Branch Chain Blink]

Woke up and took one cap. Did a little studying for my genetics test then went to class.

Focus:(7/10) Little better than normal. We watched an incredibly boring documentary from like 1990 today in class, so that was one of the reasons focus wasn't great.
Concentration:(6/10)
Memory:(9/10) I think this was the category most effected by the pyritinol today. I only went over the material for another hour today, but it felt like I had studied for hours. I remembered everything easily.
Information Processing:(8/10) The information I had to study before class was pretty hard, but I think I easily processed it. We didn't learn anything new during class today.
Multi-Tasking Abilities:(8/10) When I was studying this morning, I was watching music videos on youtube at the same time. I'd say my MTing abilities were quite good
Mental Alertness:(5/10) Nothing more than usual here.

Anyway, I got an A on my Genetics test, so that testifies to the goodness of the product If you were wondering which music videos I was watching:


Mainly that one. Can't get enough of Oh, Sleepers new CD, so amazing. If you like hardcore, you best pick it up.

I'm about to sit down for a study session right now and I'll be taking 2 caps. I'll report later.

[Branch Chain Blink]

Alright well I just got finished writing my paper and studying for my midterm tomorrow. Went pretty well. I upped my dose to 800mg and I saw a much better effect.

Focus:(9/10) Great focus today. Sat down and got everything done. No distractions.
Concentration:(10/10) Same as focus.
Memory:(9/10) Material wasn't difficult, but I'm remembering it well.
Information Processing:(8/10) Nothing too difficult here, but I was able to better express my thoughts than normal while writing my essay.
Multi-Tasking Abilities:(8/10) My ability to listen to music, sing the lyrics and write my essay was pretty legit Even though my roomate was looking at me funny when I was singing the lyrics to one of my favorite Pavarotti songs (yes italian)
Mental Alertness:(9/10) Felt very mentally alert. My brain seemed sharp and ready to stick to what I had to do the entire time.

Overall good experience today. I'll continue to take 800mg before I study. I might try 1200mg next week just to see what that's like.

Yeah it was definitely a good study session. I noticed a big difference when going from 400mg-800mg.

[Branch Chain Blink]

Excellent!

For this log, do you want me to take the product on mornings where I don't have to study? Like today I don't have anything to do.

If you plan to listen to music or have anything even related to using your brain sure. Even though you don't have to take it everyday there is a slight buildup effect.
