N-Acetyl Semax

[Zardoz]

N-acetyl semax is mentioned by a Dr. Mark Gordon (neurologist) on Joe Rogan's podcast #2262. N-acetyl semax is a peptide claimed to stimulate the brain to produce more BDNF.

Has anyone been prescribed this or otherwise made use of it?

Very interesting sounding stuff!

Does not seem to be useful for Parkinson's:

"In the present study, we investigated the effects of the synthetic regulatory peptides Semax (analog of an ACTH 4-10 fragment (ACTH4-10)) and Selank (analog of immunomodulatory taftsin) on behavior of rats with 6-hydroxidopamine (6-OHDA) induced PD-like parkinsonism. It was showed that both peptides did not affect motor activity of rats in elevated cross shaped maze and passive defensive behavior of the animals."

What does that mean? Thanks

[park_bear in reply to TL500]

Didn't help.

Thanks

If Joe Rogan promotes it, I stay away from it.

[Zardoz in reply to MBAnderson]

Joe Rogan did not promote it, Dr. Gordon mentioned that he had success treating a long suffering patient with it.

[MBAnderson in reply to Zardoz]

I wouldn't take health advice from either.

Gordon clearly didn't know about one of the biggest (Alzhiemer's 2.6 B) frauds in research.
