Best Nootropics for Learning and Memory
Nootropic supplements are known to boost learning, memory and recall. This video is about how memory works in your brain. And provides suggestions on nootropics you can add to your stack for each step of the memory process.
Science has now discovered how memory works in our brain all the way down the molecular level. And this has empowered us as neurohackers to be able to select the best nootropics for improving learning and memory.
Here you’ll discover how memories are encoded in your brain. And how your hippocampus, glial cells, dendrites and axons all participate in recording memories.
You will also learn how meditation, fitness & exercise, and ADHD stimulants all promote the neuroplasticity required for learning and memories.
Then you’ll get specific suggestions for nootropic supplements that specifically support short-term and long-term memory.

My short term memory went south after an accident causing Lateral Whiplash. No answers yet to repair this. Any ideas? Thanks I have found that Rhodiola did put a stop to it in getting worse but nothing to improve it.

David, what's your take on Genius Consciousness? I've been taking this for a a couple years now. It has Huperzine A in it which should help stave off memory issues later in life. I've tried other supplements, but keep returning to genius consciousness for the boost in clarity I can feel all day. I'm able to remember numbers and things which shock my employees as well as myself. I haven't seen your review on it though. I'm curious too what your thoughts are on phosphatidylcholine.

I appreciate you. Thank you for sharing in detail.

What does it mean if bacopa improves my memory and recall in couple of days Does it mean that I was low in BDNF and NGF or anything other than that?
Huperzine or gotu kola to inhibit Ach breakdown in brain? which is more potent? U have any other potent noot suggestions?
Which noots do you recommend to inhibit dopamine breakdown or uptake and increase dopamine concentration in brain ? Do you need to increase dopamine or have to stimulate dopamine receptors for memory and mood ? Kindly share with me how to do that
Im about to order my stacks your comment could help me and anyone that reads!

@NootropicsExpert Hi David, a question about Bacopa Monneri (Brahimi).
I’ve been trying Nature’s Answer 500mg Bacopa Capsules & Himalaya 650mg tablets.
Himalaya has 3,300 mg of “organic” bacopa root powder in one caplet. However it’s only 100mg of 24% bacopa sapoins.
Natures Answer has 20% standardized, bacosides 20mg and 400mg of bacopa monneri (herb).
What values should I look at, and what is the biggest differences between these two products.
Thank you
Bob
What do you think about liquid or liposomal glutathione vs NAC?

28:54 please take his advice and try ONE nootropic at a time. Make sure the nootropic
you try is of the highest quality source available and please be patient since nootropics can take awhile to work. Never be in a hurry when it comes to your health.

Any thoughts on Chlorella & Spirulina? I heard Spirulina is not good for you because it gives your body fake vitamin B, but I heard Chlorella is good for you. Any thoughts on this? Or do you take either?

Omar Al Gala
Hello David, Great video!!! I am new to nootropics and I was wondering if it’s better to use extract or 100% pure form. I bought some Ginkgo and it’s 100% pure no other ingredients and I am also interested in buying some other nootropics like Bacopa but just wanna be sure what’s the best form. Thanks
