The Biggest Placebos Right Now

[cswagg]

All of these retarded ass supplements you see on TikTok shop adds are total bullshit. Most if not all of it is placebo and you’d think it’s pretty obvious but the amount of people taking these placebos and wasting their money is insane. I’ll list off a few here, just be weary of what you’re buying and don’t waste money on bullshit.

1. Ashwaganda:
Ashwaganda has this sort of fad going on right now where people are genuinely convinced that it’s going to make them emotionless. There’s wayyy too much to get into there but long story short ashwaganda doesn’t do shit. It’s a fucking mushroom that grows on moss and the only thing it’s proven to do is help balance your immune system. So if you get the flu a lot and you’re a little faggot, this is for you, otherwise, don’t waste your money.

2. Lions Maine
Lions Maine is another marketed fucking magic mushroom that’s supposed to open neuro pathways in your brain to make you smart. I feel like it’s pretty obvious but a random ass mushroom is not going to cure your crippling retardation, switch to aderall.

3. Kava/Kava Root
Kava and Kava Root are marketed as two different things which to me is the craziest part because they’re almost the exact same The only difference being that Kava is the leaf and Kava Root, contrary to its name, is from the STEM of the leaf. This is marketed for increasing test and libido which it’s been proven multiple times to be wrong. This one is probably the most retarded because prolonged exposure to Kava can make your blood clot for some insane reason.

4. Shilajit
If you’re one of the sorry motherfuckers that saw that one TikTok shop add for Shilajit honey packets and actually bought one, you’re fucking stupid. Shilajit does NOT work like viagra although that’s how it’s advertised. The whole reason why Shilajit came out in the first place was as a supplement for brain development.

If you don’t read all of this I don’t blame you because I wrote a lot but yall gotta stop being suckers for marketing and do your own research before blind purchasing magic pills.

I agree a lot of the supplements you mentioned require more scientific evidence for their alleged benefits, and are likely cope.

Ashwaganda though, has a lot of benefits that are pretty well supported. The making you "emotionless" though is idiotic though and obviously not true.

One of the greatest benefits of Ashwagandha and why I personally take it is its ability to reduce cortisol (stress hormone). This has been supported by scientific literature.

Spoiler: Some papers on it

https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.4103/0253-7176.106022

https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Efficacy-and-Safety-of-Ashwagandha-Root-Extract-on-Gopukumar-Thanawala/edf6ed1ce19cf269c3aa04cd8beeb5a15b6527ef?utm_source=consensus

Rationally, this should also lead to an increase in testosterone since high cortisol suppresses testosterone production, but this is less decisive. This study did find an increase though, so definitely a possibility. https://www.semanticscholar.org/pap...4b45acb965419739182532ed?utm_source=consensus

no yeah i agree ashwaganda of course has some study’s on it proving that it’s pretty good for you. i was writing specifically about the people that think it’s gonna turn them to nonchalant dread heads.

 

[univer]

Haha yeah, I remember people were talking about that. While lowering stress does decrease the activity of the amygdala (part of the brain responsible for impulses), Ashwagandha is not something that will make a drastic change.

 

[Doomer]

Ashwagandha is legit wdym nuking cortisol is good

 

[testosterone36]

just blast test though
