Oh, in other news, the FDA is apparently going after piracetam; smartpowders.com reports that it’s been ordered to cease selling piracetam and is frantically trying to get rid of its stock. See

Yikes! Hits close to home for me! I had actually ordered bulk piracetam about a week ago, in an order with two other supplements. When the shipment arrived, the piracetam wasn’t in it, and it had a note saying it was out of stock and I wouldn’t be charged for it, but I’d be informed when it was available again.
I thought it was strange at first, since they wouldn’t have taken the order if they weren’t able to reserve a unit for my order. (This isn’t fractional reserve banking, folks!) But that explanation makes a lot more sense. If only I had placed the order a few days earlier...
Just-in-time techniques always struck me as being very close to fractional reserve banking, actually...
Anyway, elsewhere in that Reddit page, users mention that other nootropics seem to be getting harder to find lately like choline and huperzine-a. (I tried huperzine-a and wasn’t impressed, but I kind of need the choline to go with any piracetam.)
Strange. My local grocery store with a health food/supplement aisle just started stocking a choline/inositol blend (saw it for the first time two days ago). I previously got the choline in a different supplement section, from a product called LipoTrim.

That is infuriating! The fools!
This puts Robin Hanson’s criticism of the FDA in a new perspective for me.
They blew it up! They blew it all up! Goddamn them to hell!
