Green Tea Result
Last night, I tried green tea again. (It had been a while.) I drank 12 ounces and had no trouble at all falling to sleep. Thinking back to the difference between my successful and unsuccessful trials with the green tea, the successful trials have always occurred with "diet" green tea. In other words, the one time that green tea kept me up, it contained some sugar. That no doubt played a role in keeping me up. I'm surprised that I hadn't thought of this before!

Anyhow, I now feel pretty comfortable trying a full 16 ounces (2 cups) of green tea the next time. I think that the sugar was the real issue, not the caffeine. In addition, I spent the WBTB mostly meditating, and I have to think that helped as well.

Pre-bed: 3g fish oil (so nothing, basically)
WBTB (after ~3 hours of sleep, too soon, but I got confused): 12 oz green tea right before going back to sleep
Tech: SSILD after meditation during 25-minute WBTB
Results: Two vivid dreams, one nearly lucid. Pretty good sleep until the kids woke up.

Thoughts on Galantamine and Peak Plasma
I have thought a bit more on the best way to reduce free choline when trying G+C. It occurred to me that choline bitartrate has a much faster time to peak plasma than Alpha-GPC (1 hour vs 3 hours.) That means that the high amount of choline bitartrate is likely more responsible for the early rush and subsequent insomnia.

Leaving in the Alpha-GPC and reducing choline bitartrate should give me a much smoother curve of rising free choline (and hopefully, rising acetylcholine.) So next time I will cut choline bitartrate back to 200mg and leave Alpha-GPC unchanged. I'll likely also include some L-theanine.

I'm feeling pretty good about this recipe, so I'll try that next. Of course, I've gotta have another LD in order to earn myself another dance with galantamine.

Also, I'm interested in how alpha-GPC might do on its own as a lucidity trigger. Should definitely be worth a shot!
