Is cistanche serotonic

[Lostguy24]

So does cistanche increase serotonic if so by how much

I would like to know if you take something serotonergic if you can lessen the damage with b1, phenylalanine and aspirin

I stumbled upon studies showing its effect on dopamine:

Reversal by aqueous extracts of Cistanche tubulosa from behavioral deficits in Alzheimer's disease-like rat model: relevance for amyloid deposition and central neurotransmitter function - PubMed

We suggest that CT extract, containing enough echinacoside and acteoside, ameliorated the cognitive dysfunction caused by Aβ 1-42 via blocking amyloid deposition, reversing cholinergic and hippocampal dopaminergic neuronal function.

This herb sounds amazing on paper and that was confirmed when I took a high dose of it a few months ago.

I ordered 1kg from china a few days ago.

@Ismail I would love to help you but sourcing anything from china can be risky, it's indeed the first time I order from them. So I won't link you to them for this reason.

I got it from "the" famous e-commerce platform in China. Just type in "Cistanche" and you'll have the choice

It should be alright, I sourced Pine pollen from China before. But we never know. I suggest you do your own research about any vendors.

From what I remember researching it , it was only serotonergic in very high doses .

Dont remember how much exactly, but it definitely wasn't serotonergic in the 0-5g HED territory .

So if I take 500mg - 1 grams I’ll be okay

Yes , I think so.

 

[Lostguy24]

Yes , I think so.

I was also wondering how good is it as a nootropic since increases dopamine
