CistaMAX | The Road To The Perfect Cistanche This month on the In Search of Insight podcast, Emiel and Erika share the inspiration behind Nootropics Depot’s new CistaMAX stack! We combined non-extracted Cistanche, a high-potency Cistanche extract, and a Supercritical Cistanche extract with Shilajit, Pregnenolone and DHEA to create CistaMAX. This combination produces a noticeable stimulating and motivating effect, and boosts the muscle-building properties of Cistanche. In this podcast, you’ll learn why we chose each ingredient in CistaMAX and what purpose it serves in the stack as a whole. You’ll also learn about the neuroscience behind the focus and mood enhancing effect of Cistanche. There’s lots of reasons why we include CistaMAX in our daily stack - it can increase feelings of hunger, which is essential when bulking and building muscle. It also gives us a noticeable energy boost that makes us want to move more. CistaMAX is a great choice for supporting fitness, motivation, and hormonal balance.
