And maybe make you 20% less anxious/more focused, but honestly it's hard to say... actually, in retrospect I never experienced acute anxiety when I was experimenting with it. Certainly worth a shot.
I already have moderate male pattern baldness :)
20% seems ok to me, buspirone is not that great either, but I never experienced panic attacks while on it(actually I only experienced panic attacks while on stimulants), and if I had another option like SELANK/SEMAX with the BDNF boosting bonus, that would be great.
I'll give them a shot.
Fasting can increase bdnf by 3.5 times . Research intermittent fasting and also long term fasting (48 hours) .
There is just so much that can increase bdnf but as a rule of thumb when it comes to herbs . Studies mostly are short term and just not as good .
I recommend coming over to the nootropics subreddit and research/ask there
I would like to offer some extra info .
Since you are looking for OTC . Both NAC and SACROSINE have a lot of great research when it comes to schezophrenia. It seems to work for some but not others.also new research into TMG (betaine glycine) is also interesting
There is also a new drug on the horizon that doesn't work on the dopamine receptors and has much less side effects than what's currently
