As some of you may know, my first experiences with Nitor were less then perfect; I felt sluggish, out of it, and just plain unmotivated. But this all changed on my third day on Nitor (today).
I took 2 capsules around noon. The first couple hours or so I felt little effect, and was seriously ready to throw my bottle of Nitor in the trash can. But, after about 3 hours, I started feeling tingly and excited, much like the effect coffee has on me. I was extremely motivated and driven and I coasted through 2 hours worth of lectures, followed by a 3 hour OChem lab. Throughout my classes, I was focused and passionate about learning; I didn't miss a single detail. To say the least, I was beginning to like Nitor. A lot.
But my high didn't end there. I was feeling so ambitious and motivated I went to the library around 4 and destroyed 2 chapters worth of my OChem textbook. And, I wasn't simply reading the material, I was genuinely understanding it. It's almost 11 pm right now and I'm still so fully awake, that I might just run through another chapter to get ahead.
I don't know why my first couple days with Nitor were so sucky, perhaps my body just needed to get used to it. Either way, I can really see Nitor becoming a staple in my life (which may or may not be a bad thing).
I'm confused as to what exactly is in nitor, or any other fat burner, that will make you motivated and better able to concentrate. I believe that if this were true, everyone in the world would be taking them on a daily basis.
My brother and I were brutal. I once chased him around the house with a spoon that I put on the burner. I burned that little pricks leg. -sharkall2003

Ephedrine works like a hot damn for studying. So does caffeine.
I better take some of that left over Nitor before my French class then. I'm SO ****ed in there.
Been out the game for a little while, but jumpin back in
Three caps of Nitor have 150mg caffeine from guarana, 100mg caffeine from kola nut, and 50mg from gree tea - works out to 100mg caffeine per capsule.
Caffeine's wonderful for so many things. Cheap too. I buy 100 tablets (200 mg each) for what, 8 bucks at superstore?
One thing I noticed is that Nitor does take about 3 hours to kick in. I would assume this is because it takes awhile to do break down the capsule. If the capsule was opened, and the molecules inside were mixed with grape juice, I would assume it would work quicker.
Caffeine (which I get mostly from coffee) is, indeed, great for studying, but I have noticed one significant difference between plain ole caffeine and Nitor: little to no crash. 2-3 hours after my first cup of coffee, I need a nap (or another coffee). Nitor lasts literally 14 hours for me, so even when I do crash (which is pretty minimal), it's well past time to be in bed.
In my opinion, Nitor is superior in every way to caffeine by itself. I usually need 3 cups of coffee day, which, where I live, costs me in excess of 7 dollars. (7$/day)(7 days) = almost 50 bucks. I can buy a bottle of 180 capsules for the same price which could last me for 2 months (depending on my dosage and tolerance). Not only is Nitor superior in providing focus and energy, but it is, without a doubt, much more cost-effective.
I can take a 200mg caffeine pill no problem, but 3 nitor and I would be freaking out-literally. It must have been something else in it that gave me that feeling.
Brew your coffee in the morning and take it with you, problem solved. Buying 3 cups of coffee at a coffee shop is the biggest waste of money ever.

That's why I take pills. 1000mg caffeine (more than your 3 cups of coffee a day, more like FIVE) costs me about 40 cents a day.

Your opinion is correct. It isn't just caffeine, it is the form of caffeine combined with the other ingredients that provides for a level, prolonged delivery of stimulation.
Did I mention that at 1/2 to full dose it works very nicely at losing body fat as well? This is especially true over time.
I did read anything, but caffeine caught my attention. Although I dont take the pills, where I work I get basically unlimited coffee, and it seems to have zero effect on me.
Would the source be the problem or just individual variance?

Are you drinking de-caf?
