~80% of the stack benefit at moderate cost..The core combination — covers the main mechanisms.
Full mechanism + edge-case redundancy..Comprehensive coverage of every documented pathway.
Exam-week cognition has three needs: encoding (bacopa, lions-mane), retrieval (alpha-GPC, magnesium-L-threonate), and anxiety management (magnesium, theanine-equivalent). This stack covers all three across a 1-2 week prep window.
What it's for
Students 1-2 weeks before exams, professional certification preparation.
Not for:Same-day exam-cramming — supplements work best with 1-2 week lead time. Diagnosed ADHD needs medical care.

Pair with — diet, workout, activity
The supplement is half the lift. The rest is daily.
🍽️ Diet that fits
Whole foods, varied colours, sufficient protein (0.8–1.2 g/kg), fermented foods for microbiome health
Ultra-processed foods, refined sugars, excess alcohol, inflammatory seed oils
3 balanced meals with protein at each. Avoid eating within 2 hours of sleep.
🏋️ Workout that fits
Combination of aerobic (3×/week) and resistance training (2×/week)
Completely sedentary days — even 30 minutes of walking changes metabolic markers
Exercise and supplementation share many downstream pathways. One amplifies the other.
🚶 Activity & lifestyle
Daily sunlight exposure (15–20 minutes), adequate hydration (2–3L), stress-reduction practice
Processed food consumption, prolonged sitting, late-night screen time
7–9 hours sleep; all supplements work better with adequate rest.
Alternates — same goal, different toolkit
