I took 200 mcg a few minutes ago and my memory hit me like a truck! 

Suddenly there's clarity and improved memory! 

Just wanted to share my excitement, this really works.

@Thought Art yep it's a natural nootropic, research it to make sure but I don't think it has any tolerance, it's one of those cumulative things where you can take it every day.

Sounds very interesting! It's also super cheap considering dosage. One kilogram pack costs under $80 - this is should be enough for almost fourteen years :D

I would be interested in long term experiences. Is there anyone else is using Huperzine for more than one day?

@Username from my research, it's best to cycle it as it has a long half life. 

So if you're taking it long term I'd suggest spreading it out to 3x a week.

I did my research and I have same opinion now.

Did you use any modafinil? I think that it would be a good idea to use them alternately: one day Armodafinil and another Huperzine. How would you compare them?

@Username modafinil and armod is effective, but coffee suffices for me honestly. 

Modafinil doesn't seem sustainable to me.

Hopefully I’ll have a good stack that works for me when I can afford them.

Seems it works as cholinesterase inhibitor giving your brain more bioavailable choline by preventing it's breakdown. Similar effect to what SSRIs do with serotonin. Definitely interesting in pharmacology but not sure if you wanna be manipulating your neurochemistry for a long time, who knows what other knockon effects that can have ?‍♂️

Whenever something works fast and is super efficient, we should exercise caution.

This one actually makes me really sick. I believe I threw up from it as well. I read something that you brain can produce something similar, so if you have too much it could make you sick.

@PurpleTree lol this isn't something you take on a daily basis. I didn't take it today. 

@Michael569 my main source is eggs for choline now. 

yea i didn't think every day

but maybe 3 times a week for 3 weeks

@Username keep in mind the dosages are measured in micrograms!

Also, I got covid and it was a blessing as I got time to feel what it's like without any stimulant or substance. 

I've let go of nootropics and caffeine and stuffs. 

Only magic mushroom tea ?.

May stick to matcha green tea and cacao.

@Fearless_Bum  Thank you!

Now I'm a little bit confused about the dosage. If description is true that it is 99% extract than I bought more than I will ever use. It's like 30 years of daily use. Not a huge price difference anyway :D It's funny because they recommend taking 5 to 15 grams a day.

I will start low. Very low.

@Username oh no, you need to make sure you're getting Huperzine A specifically. 

You probably bought huperzia serrata.

@Gregory1 I will not, I don't trust item descriptions from aliexpress 9_9

@Fearless_Bum Yes, I got Huperzia Serrata.

I think I got it. 99% extract means that it's 99% pure. However it doesn't mean there are no additives. Sadly most sellers do not mention that.

I found an offer on alibaba, this is what you can get:

Product Description

Ratio: 4:1~20:1 ;

1%,5%,99% Huperzine A

 

It should be safe to assume that what I got is 1% at most. I also doubt that I got something even weaker because it's not something typically sold.

Finally, here is a label from Huperzine A:

It means that if I consume 20 mg of powder I am getting 200 mcg of Huperzine A. It would be wiser to buy a powder with more accurate label. However I found another one that is 1% and it costs exactly the same, so it's unlikely that mine is more concentrated.
