Hello :)
Today I write about something really controversial. You probably saw (or heard about) a "Limitless" movie. It was a hit a few years ago. Honestly, I was fascinated about capabilities of the main character, when he took those pills. Of course there was horrible side effects, anyway, it was interesting for me. I think that was the moment I started looking for informations about different things, which professionally are called "Biohacking". In brief, it's a science about improving capabilities of human body and mind. This way I found a really interesting drug (in medical meaning) which is called Modafinil.
Originally it's a prescription medicine for narcoleptics, but is used also by healthy people. It's really popular for example in Silicon Valley, where people use their brains very intensely. Important fact is that many people use Modafinil by years and they with no noticeables side effects. Good example is famous biohacker, Dave Asprey. We have many researches available and they do not indicate important health risk.
Honestly, I tried Modafinil few times and this is what I noticed:
- more energy
- better focus
- I wasn't sleepy at all during day (and it happens quite often)
- I was really motivated to do my work
The last one is my favorite advantage of Modafinil. Probably you are thinking about disadvantages now, but honestly, I didn't noticed anything bad with my body or brain. Of course, it's matter of the organism, but I didn't heard about bad stories with this substance. If you want to know more, I can recommend you great website, where you can get much details about Modafinil and other supplements. REMEMBER, always be careful with any supplements! Your health is the most important what you have.
I'm curious about your opinion. Have you heard about Modafinil before? What do you think about it? Maybe you have your own favourites supplements? I'm waiting for your comments :)
