Kratom Alternatives – Herbs, Supplements and More

September 27, 2016 By Pill Scout Leave a Comment

Kratom alternatives are a very hot subject right now. As you may have already learned, the DEA is set to list kratom (mitragyna speciosa) as a Schedule I substance come September 30th 2016. (Update: The DEA have delayed their scheduling pending public commentary.) This is being fought tooth and nail, and quite effectively I might […]

Focus3d – A Unique Focus-boosting Capsule

June 13, 2016 By Pill Scout Leave a Comment

Focus3d is one of the newest capsule offerings by Powder City. Though it is touted as a focus booster designed by gamers for gamers (probably gamers who do late-night streams and play online games for hours), I can’t consider myself one in that sense.

UpliftX review – Better than a Caffeine Pill

June 29, 2014 By Pill Scout Leave a Comment

I was recently sent a sample bottle of UpliftX: 30 capsules of a supplement that contain a synergistic blend of theanine and caffeine. The supplement arrived in a regular mailing envelope, and was in a standard plastic supplement bottle with a proper product label and supplement information. “Made in the USA,” which is somehow assuring.

Increase your stress tolerance

December 2, 2013 By Pill Scout 1 Comment

Stress is hormetic. If you don’t have any stress, you’ll die. If you have too much stress, you’ll die. Life is not stress-free, so it’s a good idea to just increase your tolerance to it.
