I'm not a crypto user, but with time to figure out all the steps for crypto did initiate a successful purchase of some from intellimeds.

Hello - I am just now discovering that SuperSmart is not selling Homotaurine. I called and left a message w/them today in hopes of getting an update as to if/when it will return. Assuming I obtain updated info, I will post it to this thread. It sounds like (from previous posts in September) that Intellimeds is an alternate vendor and some of you have purchased from them. May I ask if you've been satisfied with their product and if there were any problems with delivery to you in the U.S.? I appreciate any/all info you can share with me.

Thank you!

I successfully ordered a large number of 50g packets and they were delivered to the US without issue. I can't comment on product quality as no way to test. We also haven't started taking it much as have a supply of SuperSmart still in hand. I've been working out how to put it in capsules. My wife isn't fond of powders nor is she anxious to use my 0.001 g scale to measure each dose. I learned that #5 empty capsules are the smallest. Ideally they'd weigh around 100 mg (0.100 g) to be dosed 3x/day. However I think there will be more in the capsule than that. I really need to go ahead and get a capsule filling device (I've been looking at these), use it and weigh the empty (before filling) and full capsules to see how this works out. The #5's opening is so small, it is hard to accurately get a pre-weighed amount of powder in it, with any accuracy. I'm guessing there may be around 150mg in each capsule. As my wife and I are asymptomatic for AD and we don't react at all to the HT, it is hard to see if the powder is efficacious.

Hello Tincup – thank you for your reply and sharing your experience with Intellimeds. Since posting my initial question(s), I heard back from SuperSmart and they indicated that they are waiting for their homotaurine supply to be released from customs. They further indicated that as soon as that happens, they will put the product back on their website. That said, it appears that others on this forum were told that “due to a patent pending, Supersmart can no longer sell it on the web anymore, at least in the U.S.” Time will tell.

Additionally, I was told by another resource that IBSPOT sells SuperSmart’s Homotaurine ( https://ibspot.com/products?keywords=homotaurine ). While they carry it, the cost is significantly higher than buying direct from SuperSmart. I believe the product ships from Germany. I reluctantly placed an order since our supply is running low.

Thank you again for your reply re: Intellimeds. I may go that route next if SuperSmart does not return the product to market.

I just received my homotaurine from supersmart. My last subscription order went through like 2 months ago and I had emailed them and gotten the stuck in customs response, so that must have been true and it cleared or they were able to reorder.
I was taking one a day and then switched to one or two a week to stretch out supply.

Shows on their site, looks like the country code is now 44 (UK). Also on Amazon in various EU countries at differing prices.

Hi Josh - thanks much for the update on SuperSmart in the U.S. I'll return to their site and make sure my subscription status is reactivated.
