Appendix A:
Product Sources

In the first printing of this book we listed several overseas mail-order sources for smart drugs and nutrients. Since then, the state of availability of smart drugs has entered a period of change. Some of the original sources we listed have gone out of business, and others have changed their addresses. The FDA policy toward some smart drugs seems to be in a state of flux. Additionally, we have discov­ered new sources. Due to the changes, we have decided not to list any overseas mail-order sources here as they could change after printing.

Please send in the yellow card at the front of this book and request the Smart Drug Sources List. Include $2.00 for postage and handling (free to Smart Drug News subscribers.) CERI's list is updated on a monthly basis. You can get the latest information on which sources are most reliable and least expensive.

Smart drugs are available in many foreign countries. Pharmacies in Mexico, for example, often stock most of the drugs listed in this book. U.S. Customs has traditionally allowed personal importation of foreign drugs for personal use. Some people have told us that they combine their vacation plans with buying trips. Other countries where readers have reported purchasing smart drugs include: Thailand, Italy, Spain, and Belgium.

In this appendix, we include a few of the most reliable sources for smart nutrients in the United States. These sources cannot sell drugs such as piracetam and hydergine.
