Monthly Q&A #3
Welcome back to the third ever monthly Q&A here on Substack for paid subs. To participate, leave a comment below with your question and I’ll respond with an answer.
Questions can be about anything; not just science, biology, and supplements, but random topics as well if you wish. I’ll answer any question asked before the next month’s Q&A post at the end of August.
Rules:
1 question per person per Q&A, although 1-2 follow up questions are allowed
“Thoughts on xyz…” is not a question
Do not ask for medical advice
The better the question you ask, the better my answer will be

I’ve been researching Dihexa and am considering running a short cycle of about 20–30 days to see if it produces any noticeable improvements in verbal acuity, cognitive performance/ mental clarity. My main questions are:
Potential Side Effects – Are there any risks i need to be aware of (The more i search on it i get muddied answers)
Neuroplasticity Effects – Since Dihexa is reported to significantly enhance neuroplasticity, is there a possibility it could unintentionally “rewire” certain thought patterns, habits, or behaviors in ways that might be undesirable? I have been holding off because i want to use it during a short phase of intense study. For a one-month trial, how likely is it that I’d encounter any lasting negative changes, given the lack of human clinical studies?
