Great Motivators… (conclusion)
So, where I guess I left off was that I had taken a stack of:
Phenylethlamine HCl (1500 mg)
Caffeine (200 mg)
Ephedrine HCl (25 mg)
on an empty stomach and felt very good, mood-wise. I went out for an hour long trail run and even managed to run up certain hills that I usually just power-hike. I didn’t feel the fatigue in my muscles on some of the more difficult sections of that route — and yet I was hyper attuned to every muscle in my body — or so I felt. I didn’t feel any abnormal jittery-ness or that my heart rate or blood pressure was doing anything out of the ordinary.
Overall, I felt really good about this stack. Upon doing some further research, it seems that the addition of a MAO-B Inhibitor will prolong the effects of the PEA (which only lasts for several hours by itself). Apparently, an MAO-B Inhibitor is a much safer form than a straight MAO-Inhibitor … and I found a guy who used the Fo-Ti herb which is a natural MAO-B-Inhibitor with much success.. plus, it’s WAY cheaper than the prescription medication, Selegiline, which many people already stack with PEA to prolong the feeling ….
I didn’t feel any harsh crash or pronounced lethargy or sleepiness after the stack had worn off… just that the really heightened, focused, energy level, and very happy mood just kind of gradually faded into my normal baseline state.
Also, after reading up about PEA and how it affects brain chemistry, I feel it should be used on a limited basis… not as a part of your daily regimen of energy stacks. You can build up a tolerance, so best to just use this stack if you wake up and feel very low on the motivation scale … easier said than done though, cuz on this stuff, you feel totally awesome! ![]()
