https://www.gorillamind.com/products/gorilla-mind-smooth/?atid=160
What to Expect From Gorilla Mind Smooth

User experience will vary and is dose-dependent, but this is what you can expect if you take Gorilla Mind Smooth on an empty stomach (without additional caffeine) -
Within 15 minutes - You will notice that your ability to focus and concentrate is slightly higher than your baseline state.
Within 1 hour - You will notice that your ability to focus and concentrate is undoubtedly increased beyond your baseline state. Only a very slight increase in energy will be observed.
After 90 minutes - Your ability to be productive, concentrate, multitask without being distracted will peak and remain for an additional 4 or 5 hours. Anxiety levels WILL NOT be aggravated and you may notice a slight increase in well-being. Very minor appetite suppression may be noticed, but it will not be significant.
After 6-8 hours - You will slowly return to your baseline cognitive state. Gorilla Mind Smooth will not compromise your sleep cycle (provided that you do not combine it with Gorilla Mind Rush, additional caffeine or stimulants). Gorilla Mind Smooth has ABSOLUTELY NO CRASH.


GORILLA MIND SMOOTH TIP

Increase Penis Size and Quality of Erections



Mucuna Pruriens 40% L-dopa Extract - 60 650mg VegiCaps -Stearate Free, Bottled in Glass! FREE SHIPPING on orders over $49!



Penile girth (maximum girth and nightly tumescence) were significantly increased after 800mg L-DOPA for 7 days via https://examine.com/supplements/l-dopa/#hem-penile-girth


Mucuna Pruriens or Velvet Bean, is a plant that has high concentrations of levodopa (L-Dopa). The amino acid that is the precursor to the neurotransmitter dopamine.  L-Dopa has been shown to inhibit prolactin acting on the pituitary gland.

In addition to the reduction of prolactin, Mucuna Pruriens is an libido booster by increasing the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) which inturn supports the production of testosterone.

Mucuna Pruriens also has supportive serotonin and opioid receptor ligands. This ligands combined with L-Dopa support mood improvements. Low dopamine and mood have also been related to mood related over eating.

As a side note for bodybuilders, prolactin inhibition has been shown to help prevent the dreaded formation of gynecomastia.

Try 100-400mg taken 30-60 minutes before workouts and before bedtime with an upper limit of 1 gram per day. Besure to cycle not taking more that 6 - 8 weeks with 4 weeks off.

Chocamine: The chocolate extract that boosts mood, energy and maybe fat burning.

Chocamine is an extract from cocoa where you get the health benefits of chocolate without the sugar. The active ingredients are often added to fat burners, mood support supplements and pre-workouts. They support a lower appetite and a faster metabolism.

These ingredients include caffeine, tyramine, theobromine, and phenylethylamine (PEA).

Dose it at 1-2 grams up to three times per day

According to Muscle and Fitness.
"Chocamine is a cocoa extract that has a number of active ingredients -- such as caffeine, tyramine, theobromine and phenylethylamine (PEA) -- that boost energy, mood, concentration, alertness and metabolism, and suppress appetite. Caffeine prevents mental and physical fatigue by blocking receptors that notify the brain of low energy levels. Tyramine is a biogenic amine that can cause the release of the neurotransmitter. Theobromine is similar to caffeine but has a longer half-life, meaning it stays active in the body for a longer time. PEA is a naturally occurring compound that behaves as a stimulant in the brain, with effects similar to those of amphetamine."

Caffeine that Magic Vitamin | Jet-Alert 90 workouts for Less Than $4

O.K., so caffeine isn't really a vitamin but people seem to think that anything in pill for is a vitamin.

It is magic to me, however. This wonderful stimulant can keep your workout humming. It decreases pain and increases mental focus.

Here are the recommended dosages:

From Muscle and Fitness:
For fat loss and weight management: 100-200mg between meals; mental acuity and focus: 50-200mg every couple of hours; strength and power: 200-400mg one hour before workouts

From Flex Magazine:
3-6mg/kg of body weight

Don’t worry about the future.
Focus on the present.

Beta-Phenylethylamine (PEA): Better Mood and Better Fat Burn



This is a naturally occurring metabolite of the amino acid phenylalanine. Known as a stimulatory transmitter in the body that enhances neurotransmission, it also promotes fat burning by increasing the release of norepinephrine.

Norepinephrine raises dopamine and serotonin levels in the brain reducing the sensation of pain and boosting feelings of euphoria. This can help trainees tolerate the rigors of training and dieting. It's also available as beta-methoxyphenylethylamine, a form that significantly enhances its half-life in the body and allows a single dose to be more effective.
 
The recommended dosage is 100-500mg one or two times daily.

Product Review: iForce Compete! with L-Carnitine L-Tartrate and L-Carnitine Fumarate


I tried a sample of this product this morning and I loved it! The next step for me is to order 3 months worth and see how it works. The taste was amazing! The second test for a sample (atleast for someone like me who's over 45) is that I didn't get "the runs". Very important.

The price is EXCELLENT! Don't think so? Compare it to the pricing of 2000mg of carnitine alone or compare it to any other intra-workout product and you will see what I mean.

Here's the highlights:

L-Carnitine L-Tartrate
While typically known as a fat burner, this form of carnitine has been shown to increase the number of androgen receptors in muscle, resulting in an increase in testosterone-binding.

L-Carnitine Fumarate
This form of carnitine is a ATP producing dynamo. It also is a fat burner, heart health support agent and is key in energy production.

Citrulline Malate
Citrulline malate (citrulline attached to malic acid) reduces fatigue, lactic acid, ammonia build up and significantly increases levels of ATP and creatine phosphate muscles. 

Whey Protein Hydrolysate
This is the fastest digesting whey product. The amino acid peptide bonds have been broken enzymatically into shorter chains of aminos resulting is fast delivery of the amino acids to all of the organs and tissues of the body. The result is quick support of protein synthesis, cell volume, and muscle anabolism.

Electrolytes
You can workout hard if your muscles are cramping. This is prevented by proper electrolyte levels.

Rhodiola Rosea
This herb increases the body's resistance to a variety of stresses and helps prevent a drop in critical hormones such as testosterone, GH, insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), dopamine, and thyroid hormone. The real payoff is that it can also blunt levels of the catabolic hormone cortisol.

Vinpocetine
Vinpocetine delivers more blood to your brain and your muscles resulting in higher energy production, better focus, bigger muscle pumps, stronger nerve impulses, and stronger muscle contractions.

Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid)
Increased muscle endurance and reduced fatigue. Vitamin C also destroys free radicals created from training and other stresses, which break down nitric oxide. 

Vitamin B12 (as Methylcobalamin)
You know this one as the energy production vitamin.

NORIVAL - Mood, Focus and Energy. The Secret to Big Muscle Gains.

Cardiovascular Research Norival Tablets, 60 Count

Norival

by Cardiovascular Research



WHAT IS IT?


Norival contains the amino acid N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine 300 mg, Vitamin B6 10 mg, and Biopterin 25 mcg per capsule. Other ingredients include cellulose, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide.

WHAT DOES IT DO?


L- Tyrosine is an amino acid which is the precursor (the substance from which it is made) for brain neurotransmitters such as L-Dopa, dopamine, norepinephrine , epinephrine (adrenalin,) and Phenylethylamine (PEA.)

This version is more easily absorbed and more bioavailable than regular L- Tyrosine similiar to the acetylated version of other amino acids such as cysteine and carnitine. It can therefore be used at a lower dose. Biopterin further enhances its bioavailability.

CAUTIONS


None at normal doses.


DOSE


Take one or two capsules daily or as directed by a physician.
