What
is Noopept?
Noopept
(N-phenylacetyl-L-prolylglycine ethyl ester) is
a highly bioavailable, peptide-derived nootropic closely related to the
racetam
family. Its potency has been estimated to be 1000x higher than
piracetam,
meaning that it is metabolized much more efficiently and quicker than
most
racetam substances; hence, a much lower dosage is required to get
potent
nootropic effects. Noopept has been shown in various studies to be
neuroprotective and enhance memory, and is used medically in some
countries for
these purposes.
How
does Noopept work?
Enhanced
by high bioavailability and great blood–brain
barrier penetration, noopept seems to stimulate the expression of NGF
and BDNF
in the memory and emotion center we refer to as the hippocampus. Like
other
nootropics, it also impacts the acetylcholine system and should be
stacked with
a choline source (like Smart Powders Alpha GPC) to maximize its effects
and
ensure an ample supply of bioavailable choline. Further, various
studies
suggest that Noopept also stimulates dopamine, Ach nicotinic and select
serotonin receptor sites, which may cause a wide range of nootropic
benefits
and mood boosting qualities.
