Welcome to Nootropics Prime
Welcome to the Nootropics Prime course brought to you by HolisticNootropics.com.
This course is for anyone who is looking to boost mental performance and enhance cognitive ability. The objective of this course is to help you use nutrition to prepare your body for cognitive enhancing supplements and nootropics.
Many people are buying supplements because they heard they work for a certain thing, only to find that the supplement doesn’t work for them. This is how the supplement industry gets to be a $40 billion industry. It’s very important to understand that supplements and nutrients require a deeper understanding than just popping a pill and hoping it makes you feel like superman.
Things That Can Prevent Supplements From Working
Poor Supplement Quality
Not all supplements are created equal. The quality of how a supplement was produced, along with the ingredients that it is made with, is as important — and in some cases more important — than the supplement you are taking in the first place. For example, you may be taking a vitamin C supplement, but it’s important to note that most vitamin C supplements are made from corn that has been genetically modified and sprayed with pesticides and herbicides. In this case you may experience more side effects than positive effects and still not tie it back to the supplement.
Bio-Individuality
You will hear me say this word a lot in this course. It refers to the biochemical individuality of your body. Your genetic blueprint is 100% individual and no two people are alike. This is why some supplements and diets work for certain people and not for others. Your bio-individuality involves both your genetic code and personal environment.
SNPs: We will discuss the idea of genetic SNPs in this course, which are Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms. These are the specific instructions that are baked into all of your genes and dictate how your body reacts to different stimulus.
Environment: Throughout your life you have subjected your body to different environmental triggers like diet, lifestyle, medications, and environmental chemicals, that have essentially trained your body to work a certain way. For example, if you’ve ever taken antibiotics at some point in your life, you may still be feeling the effects of those antibiotics as they can have a profound influence on your gut microbiome. Some people deal with food allergies and sensitivities that may have been developed after an experience with a chemical or that specific food. Chemical exposure to things like plastics, air pollution, and fluoride in the water all will affect parts of your endocrine system and can affect the way you react to nutrients.
Poor Digestion
Your digestion is your body’s gatekeeper. It dictates how food is tolerated, how nutrients get distributed, maintains the action of your immune system, and even what nutrients and chemicals get transported from your body to your brain. Optimizing your digestion will have a profound impact on improving the function of supplements and nootropics in your body.
Poor Organ Function
If your body is an orchestra, then your organs are the instruments. Each instrument contributes a different sound to make a song. If one instrument is off then the song will be unpleasant. For a nutrient like a supplement or nootropic to work correctly you need everything to work in harmony.
This means every piece of your digestion, which includes your stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, small intestine, and large intestine, need to be working. You need your kidneys to work right to get water soluble waste out of you. You need the different parts of your endocrine system to work together to allow your hormones to function properly. This includes your adrenal glands, thyroid, parts of your brain, and reproductive glands.
So I hope you’re beginning to see how this complex system of interwoven parts called your body can directly affect how you react to a supplement, and why supplementation is not as easy as just popping a pill or mixing a powder into your coffee that your co-worker said worked for them.
The Three Pillars
In this course we will be discussing how to set your body up for supplement success by addressing the three pillars needed to properly utilize nootropics and optimize your mind.
Gut Health: The importance of gut health and how to improve digestion to fully absorb and utilize nutrition.
Blood Sugar: Blood sugar regulation and how it directly affects your body’s hormonal response to stress. You will learn strategies to help you get your body into a peak state of calm and focus.
Detoxification: Why regular detoxification is so important to help keep your body getting rid of toxins and pollutants that keep you down. You will learn what real detox is, and how to optimize your body’s natural detox pathways to truly cleanse harmful chemicals out of you.
While the course itself is only a few hours of content, the lessons will require a daily commitment of discipline and patience. You’re going to train your body to work differently than it’s used to, and in doing so you may experience times of discomfort. These are known as healing reactions and will come as a result of your body physically changing. If you stay focused and disciplined you will not only overcome this discomfort but find the other side to be very beneficial.
If you’re tired of spending money on nootropics and supplements that don’t work then you’ve come to the right place. By the end of this course, you will have the tools and knowledge to transform your body to help you have a more targeted approach to improving your mental health.
You will get out of this course what you put in. If you’re ready to overcome your mental hurdles and take your thinking to the next level then you’re going to enjoy this course. I’m excited to take this journey with you and help you reach your goals.
So with that, let’s begin!
