Supplements for the daily toker

    We all know weed, smoked daily, can make us feel a little sluggish and groggy; sort of like your heads in a cloud. There are some supplements out there that help cognitive function, and when taken, I feel as though I never really smoked in the first place; always feeling fresh, full of energy, and keeps a clear head (except, obviously, when I smoke)

    Please add to the list if you know of any other helpful supplements.

    I take:

    5-HTP: It helps rebuild the serotonin lost during smoking
    L-tyrosine: Helps maintain healthy nerves so you dont tweak out
    acetyl L-carnitine: Good for overall cognitive function and MEMORY
    Fish oil: Omega-3's are helpful both to the brain and the heart
    Vitamin-B complex: Very good for energy and nerves, I prefer taking these over coffee

    I take a whole series of vitamins daily. Have for years. Comes as capsules, 6 to a bag. Supposed to take it twice a day, sometimes I forget the second packet. Supposed to keep me alive to 100 years old. I also take my omega3 fish oil daily for the old ticker. Seems prudent. Who knows. Time will tell.

    I was taking 5 htp but stopped after so many weeks, I didnt see any results but that could be that im on a ssri (ex:paxil, lexapro..anxiety/depression meds) so maybe the ssri has a effect on the 5htp.. The fishoil is ur bestfriend, everyone should take it also 5 htp is fucking expensive

    what? lol i smoke weeed and just live my life. I'VE BEEN SMOKIing everyday for a while so its not like im new to the game and need to take supplements?

    yeahh i'd suggest not taking the 5-htp if you're on an ssri. if you take too much of each at the same time you're running the risk of experiencing serotonin syndrome (seriously)

    just fyi :wave:

    I generally take a b complex in the morning or have a 5-hour, then a few hours before i get high at night i take a multivitamin. Generally offsets that effect good.

    Theres people who actually need to use there brain for things, and these help maintain healthy cognitive function... then theres you.
     
  14. #14 DriftingApart, May 22, 2011
    If you really need to maintain some healthy cognitive function, and smoke constantly and can't contain this cognitive function while you're high, and have to take a bunch of supplements in order to complete your regular activities, then you shouldn't smoke in general.

    Or at least get a little more self control, jesus. I know that I can't do everything while I'm high as well as I can when I'm not. Some things I can, not everything. Learn to accept your limits.

    That's cool. I prefer to treat my health like my education and ignore it while doing the bare minimum to keep it from failing.
