My personal Experience: I owned a Chess Computer that Played at Different Skill Levels... On Coffee I was able to beat the Computer on Higher Levels. Every Other Drug made me Play Worse. I Tested This with Marijuana, Alcohol and LSD.
However... Some Creative Efforts are Enhanced by the Use of Drugs... For Example: The Beatles, Pink Floyd and The Moody Blues made Records Stating "This is What It Feels Like to Get Stoned" - Books Written about the Opium Experience include Alice in Wonderland and Many of the Edgar Allen Poe Mysteries... Authors Phillip K Dick and Jack Kerouac typed their books while on Amphetamines...
and then there is the Grateful Dead... Was That The Deployment of The CIA's Project MKULTRA? Just to Find Out what would Happen if Millions of Americans Took LSD... and then to Use Mind Control as a Culture War Weapon... For Example: a Deadhead Might Say: "Protest Against The War in Vietnam? No Thanks, Man... I want to Dance for Peace Instead..."

Overall, there is a large body of evidence that maintaining healthy vitamin C levels can have a protective function against age-related cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease, but avoiding vitamin C deficiency is likely to be more beneficial than taking supplements on top of a normal, healthy diet.

Almost everyone uses a nootropic, whether they know it or not, says D'Adamo. He's talking about caffeine, and while it can have health risks if you overdo it, this natural stimulant has been shown to improve thinking skills. It doesn't simply make you feel more alert, says D'Adamo: Caffeine also gives you more access to several chemicals (neurotransmitters) in your brain such as acetylcholine, which helps with short-term memory and learning.
L-theanine: This supplement seems to enhance the mental effects of caffeine and counteract caffeine-induced jitteriness, D'Adamo says. Research has shown that combining caffeine and L-theanine may help you multitask better. The safest way to get this combo is by drinking pure green tea, which contains both caffeine and L-theanine, but it's also OK to combine your usual coffee or tea with an L-theanine supplement.
However... Exercising Your Brain Has Been Shown to Improve Mental Health... Playing JEOPARDY! and Wheel of Fortune on TV, Doing Crossword Puzzles, Reading, Writing... Doing Math without a Calculator... AARP Even Has Special Brain Games!

I find it interesting that BIG PHARMA is having a Battle with Republican Judges... The Texas Judge said "The Abortion Pill" is Now Illegal... And the Drug Company that sells it said: NO! Protect Our Profits! - as a Side Note: "The Abortion Pill" is the Number One way people perform Abortions... and all that Freaking Out over Roe V Wade was... about a Procedure that almost no one actually uses...
