This is Michael Duggal, the nootropic reviewer and during this video today I'm going to talk
about this specific product here it's called 9-Me-Bc, very small bottle small
doses as small as 10 milligrams and where a lot of people are using this specific product
is to reverse potential damage that could have been caused by using ADHD meds let's say you've
used Adderall for a considerable amount of time then you got off of the Adderall what happens
you feel slower you can't think as clear you're not motivated so this can help not just do that
but also help you let's say when you're taking time off of caffeine it should boost motivation
specifically by boosting dopamine levels and not even really boosting dopamine levels more so it
will make sure that your dopaminergic system is working optimally because what happens is
we take a lot of nootropics that are going to enhance our Focus going to boost our dopamine
levels but perhaps this can be doing something to just refresh that whole system and make you
feel as good as you'd like to be and I will admit I have not taken it for 30 days I've
only taken it for four to five days but so far I'm actually going to give it a thumbs up and
the reason why isn't necessarily because it's that strong but from all the research you really
can't find any negative side effects but then at the same time when you look at the research
there is no research that's been done on humans unfortunately there is a very neat study here
9-Me-Bc in the context of elevated hippocampal dopamine levels and synaptic proliferation and
you look at the study you can see that after 10 days it did improve spatial learning and it
did Elevate dopamine levels in the hippocampal formation but the bad news is this study like
many others was again done on rats so what do we know and I'm very surprised that a lot of people
have been asking about the specific nootropic it seems pretty similar to romantine and that
there was a lot of hype around romantine improving dopamine levels and I can share
with you so far from using this supplement that it may actually be a good nootropic to use under
a sleep-deprived state the past few days I really haven't slept optimally to tell you the truth but
um I fortunately you had decent energy levels my workloads have been okay and it's interesting in
like 9-Me-Bc it's not like too stimulatory of a feeling but it stimulates me enough to make
me feel like my Baseline self if I had slept like seven hours whereas I've only been able to sleep
like 5 five or so hours so people call 9-Me-Bc stimulatory maybe 9-Me-Bc is like slightly more
stimulating but when I say stimulating I don't mean it's anywhere comparable to something like
caffeine or theocrine or dynamite and or even close to things something like modafinil we're
talking very subtle uh probably similar to taking something like feracetam so this is
not your typical nootropic that you would take daily I see this as a substance that maybe it
would take for like 30 days perhaps to reset your dopamine levels make yourself feel okay see how
you respond to it at the end of the day there's not too much research on the supplement which
does again scare me at the end of the day like I do not feel comfortable taking this supplement
every day for a year even if I were to take some time cycling off of it but it's like sure maybe if
your motivation levels are low you've tried some nootropics or some nootropic Stacks it really
doesn't hurt to give this one a shot to see just how you function along with it I'm looking at the
actual bottle very potent stuff if you're gonna go ahead and get this you're definitely gonna
need like a milligram scale so you can properly just weigh it out because we're talking dosages
as small as like five to ten milligrams so this is what it looks like I will warn you it tastes
absolutely awful this is probably one of the worst Hasting nootropic supplements out there
and what's what's going to happen is you leave it under your tongue for about 20 to 30 seconds
and you'll probably lose your sense of taste for about an hour which I know sounds kind
of scary not only does it taste bad you lose your sense of taste that really does happen
um there's probably capsules out there but I'm using this specific form right now the powder form
my preferred way of taking a nootropic is actually do a lot of the research after I've tried it for
30 days to reduce biases and it seems to work for me and I'm very fortunate to be a sensitive
person to nootropic supplements especially now that I have decreased my caffeine intake I can
see myself being more likely to actually notice whether or not I should be continuing to take
this and the really exciting thing if you look on Reddit or you look for anecdotes there's a lot of
positivity about this supplement it's like one of those nootropics that I could imagine
maybe like five to ten percent of people would really respond to it very well and notice like
game changing efforts like feeling like they found the new nzt48 whereas the rest of the population
probably wouldn't feel anything from it or very subtle effects but them really having no reason
to keep it in their staff long term but I like the fact that it's low on side effects I'm not
too concerned about them but a couple of them that you should be aware of are photosensitivity there
could be DNA damage if you're exposed to too much sunlight and then the other one which is somewhat
common is having a hyperactive level of libido which I don't know if that's a bad thing or a good
thing there's a lot of people that ask me what supplements can actually help them perform better
in that context of libido and that's something interesting about 9-Me-Bc there's a lot of people
that are actually using this supplement to boost their libido levels but that's not the case for me
the reason that I'm going to be using 9-Me-Bc for this next short while is to reverse any stimulant
tolerance that may have developed so my plan is to take it for the next 30 days I'm gonna of course
keep you posted but what's very neat is the actual dosage protocol because it seems that people are
taking different dosages again very small doses you can consider a smaller dose to be something
like 0 to 10 milligrams once a day or even once every few days once a week some people take it
but I'm going to be taking it once a day just that very small dosage I'm going to be taking a
little bit under my tongue right in the morning I'm going to take your first thing I'm going to
take an in a fasted State and that works well for me because I practice intermittent fasting and I
don't mind ingesting my 9-Me-Bc first thing in the morning if I don't have my next meal at least for
a few hours afterwards because like I mentioned when you ingest 9-Me-Bc you'll probably lose your
sense of taste um especially if you get it in the powder form but I would avoid taking it in the
late afternoon and evening it has a fairly long Half-Life compared to some other supplements out
there and what a medium dose would be considered is something like 10 to 25 milligrams and anything
more than 25 milligrams I see is a pretty high dose and I don't understand why anybody would
want to take that daily for an extended period of time maybe 30 days if you're trying to go through
some sort of cycle to really change things for you and give you like a nice paradigm shift but
something which seems neat is that 9-Me-Bc could be a nice addition to your supplement stack like
there's a lot of people that are using piracetime and clothing for example and I see using this
supplement to really as well boost your focus boost your motivation the same reasons that you
would use something like piracetime and choline and also if you're somebody that maybe enjoys
taking lion's mane or some of the adaptogens to help you you to relieve your stress levels
I can see this having a really good purpose and it will likely offset any demotivation effects
that you do get from the adaptogens or Lion's vein because something we know about the um herbal or
the herbal class of nootropics is that they can often like boost mood but not be that great when
it comes to improving focus and then of course they sometimes leave you in a demotivated state
which we don't want and I've seen a lot of people um compare 9mebc to bromantane which
would definitely make sense bromantane it seems to be used like almost the exact same way and like
you take it once a day and it can sort of like indirectly help with dopamine function boosting
dopamine levels Bromantane though I've used now for over a month haven't noticed too much from
it so I don't have too high of expectations with 9-Me-Bc but again it doesn't really hurt to try
and seems somewhat free of side effects really hope you found this information helpful if you
