Notes
[1] This dose was well on my comfort zone. The heightened heart rate was only momentary.
[2] This dose seemed a little unnecessary for daily tasks as it calls for a more active setting.
[3] Took white Lotus to try and lower the effects of Bala, considering I was going to sleep and effects of Bala lasted longer than expected. For a brief moment felt sedative and active effects of both herbs.
[4] Taking this amount of Bala made me physically tired after so long, and when the sedative effects of White Lotus took over, it was a crash feeling. Maybe White Lotus is good for coming down from stimulants.
