Q&A

  • Are new tropics safe for consumption?

    The long-term effects of new tropics are not yet clear, and there are uncertainties about their effectiveness compared to a well-rounded and healthy diet. However, there have been no serious or irreversible negative effects observed from major over-the-counter new tropics.

  • What are the potential risks of using synthetic new tropics?

    While synthetic new tropics hold promise for cognitive enhancement, they also pose challenges such as addiction and side effects. Compounds like modaal and armodafinil are widely used synthetic new tropics with varying effectiveness and possible risks.

  • Can new tropics have potential cognitive benefits?

    Research suggests that natural and synthetic new tropics, such as creatine and some specific compounds like modaal and armodafinil, may enhance cognitive function. However, their effectiveness can vary among individuals.

  • Are there natural substances that act as new tropics?

    Yes, natural substances like Ginko Boba, Lion's man, ceps, Rhodiola, Bacopa Monnieri, and Ashwagandha have been gaining attention as potential nootropics with cognitive and stress-reducing benefits. These substances have been used historically and are now being studied for their cognitive advantages.

  • What is the history of new tropics?

    New tropics have been used throughout history as humans sought cognitive advantages, with documented use of herbs and plants for enhancing memory and cognitive function in ancient civilizations. During the Cold War, the Soviet Union developed new tropic compounds to enhance mental performance.

  • What are new tropics?

    New tropics are substances that aim to improve memory, focus, and cognitive speed with minimal side effects. The term was coined in 1972 and refers to compounds with cognitive benefits.

  • 00:03 Some individuals have highly superior autobiographical memory, and new tropics, cognitive enhancers, promise improved brain function, but their effects and regulation are still uncertain. The term new tropics was coined in 1972, and they have been used throughout history as humans sought cognitive advantages.
  • 05:00 The use of cognitive enhancers dates back to ancient civilizations and has evolved significantly. New tropics present a promising avenue for safe and controlled performance enhancement, with caffeine being a widely consumed example. However, the efficacy and safety of new tropics vary depending on the specific stack used.
  • 10:04 Ginko Boba, Lion's man, and ceps are ancient natural substances recently gaining attention as nootropics with potential cognitive benefits. Studies show that Lion's man may play a role in promoting brain health and protecting against neurodegenerative diseases. Ceps, a fungus, is being explored for its cognitive benefits due to its richness in cpin. Riola Rosa, known as the golden root, is a herb with potential cognitive and adaptogenic properties.
  • 15:05 Adaptogens like Rhodiola, Bacopa Monnieri, and Ashwagandha are natural substances with potential cognitive and stress-reducing benefits. Rhodiola can aid in reducing fatigue and improving memory, while Bacopa Monnieri enhances nervous system communication and may have antioxidant properties. Ashwagandha can help manage stress, improve endurance, and support neurogenesis. Creatine, well-known for its physical performance benefits, has also gained attention for its potential cognitive enhancements.
  • 20:05 Research shows that natural Neutropics like creatine can enhance cognitive function, but the quest for cognitive enhancement continues with the development of synthetic Neutropics. While synthetic Neutropics hold promise, they also pose challenges such as addiction and side effects. Modaal and armodafinil are examples of widely used synthetic Neutropics, but their effectiveness varies among individuals. The future of synthetic Neutropics looks towards compounds designed at the molecular level to target specific brain pathways.
  • 25:04 The use of new tropics, or smart drugs, is on the rise with the promise of boosting brain power, but the long-term effects are not yet clear. While they may offer potential benefits, it's uncertain if they are as effective as a well-rounded and healthy diet. However, there are currently no serious or irreversible negative effects observed from major over-the-counter new tropics. The future potential of new tropics remains uncertain.
