I am a vegetarian and am going to school full time so I am going to start taking daily vitamins and supplements as well some Nootropics. I have been studying quite a bit but would like some input on my schedule as of now. Im not going to go into why I chose what I chose cuz it would take forever, but if you see any see contraindications or too small/too large doses please help me out!
My schedule will be as listed below, I will alternate on and off weekly, so one week on this schedule then one week off, repeat repeat.
Morning: Taken with protein shake, rounded breakfast, and 2 table spoons of chia seeds.

5. Piracetam - 800mg

Have you taken 5-HTP before? I'm curious about it. I'm currently taking L-Theanine, which is pretty nice and might try adding some 5-HTP to the mix.

If you take 5-HTP regularly, then it's not a bad idea to also take l-tyrosine (only on an empty stomach), so that you have a balance of serotonin and dopamine precursors. Also, probably not wise to take 5-HTP regularly unless you feel you really need it.
http://www.livestrong.com/article/539256-l-tyrosine-5-htp/
"Numerous studies published since 2009 document the need to administer serotonin amino acid precursors simultaneously in proper balance with dopamine precursors in order to prevent depletion"
"5-HTP may deplete dopamine"

You might already know this but I thought I'd mention... Exercise caution with all supplements. Always read about the possible side effects. They sometimes can throw your body out of balance if you take them for too long or if you've got them in the wrong proportion. They can never replace a good diet.
