Cognitive / nootropic · Mood / anxiety

Oxytocin

Limited human data

A naturally occurring hormone-peptide best known for its role in childbirth and lactation, popularized far beyond that as the "trust" or "bonding" molecule after a famous 2005 economics experiment. A useful case study in how a single influential paper can outrun its own replication record.
