Nootropics

A diverse group of medicinal substances whose actions improves human thinking, learning, & memory, especially in the case where these functions are impaired¹.

There is a lot of buzz around Nootropics lately & for good reason, I believe. They are not without their risks, as there is not a lot of research regarding long-term use for many of the popular choices; much less for the lesser known substances.
