What is the best supplement to take to remember your dreams more often and/or more vividly? |

By far, Galantamine. |

"I know that I am mortal by nature, and ephemeral; but when I trace at my pleasure the windings to and fro of the heavenly bodies I no longer touch the earth with my feet: I stand in the presence of Zeus himself and take my fill of ambrosia, food of the gods." - Claudius Ptolemy
GM is not taken to enhance dream recall (remembering dreams) nor to increase vividity. GM is taken with Choline to induce lucid dream. |

I'm going to ask Alyzarin to reply here. She is good with this too. |

To expand on what gab said, B vitamins in general seem to have beneficial effects on memory. If that's mainly what you're going for, you could just try taking a B complex before bed, as long as you're not so sensitive to it that it keeps you awake. (Some B vitamins can be used for energy, but that applies to B6 as well and that's a pretty common dream aid.) The B complexes I get tend to include magnesium as well, which should also help with memory. As far as best recall goes, choline by itself is always nice because it just increases the amount of acetylcholine your brain has available (which plays a large role in memory), and many B complexes will contain choline or a natural source of it (like soy lecithin) as well. My personal favorite, though, would have to be melatonin. The REM rebound effect makes it nicer especially for days when you can sleep in and continue getting the most out of it, but it always increases the detail and number of dreams I'm able to remember. It also helps you sleep, which is nice. Most of the other supplements I've taken have had a recall- or vividness-inducing effect as well, but they also effect your dreams in various ways. I would say that those I mentioned are the most "general" enhancers. |

so the piracetam + choline its a good suplements for dreams? |
|
Choline and GM is taken to induce WILD. Piracetam is taken after you wake up in the mornig, to help you get rid of GM and Choline faster. There is a bunch of threads about GM, Choline, 5HTP and other supps in Lucid Aids forum. This one is one of them. |

A good B-complex and DMAE have done wonders for my dream recall. However, when I take choline bitartrate before bed, it destroys my recall. Weird, I know. I just got some Huperzine A today, so I'm going to experiment combining that with AlphaGPC. I'm also looking into some experiments with nicotine patches and might try choline cdp in the near future. |

A small amount of caffeine in the evening seems to increase recall for me (small meaning it's not so much it causes restlessness). Also, bananas. I guess that would be B6. |

Look up "Calea zacatechichi" |
