Identify Mystery Powder, Ordered Pyritinol from Cerebral Health, got something different. Options

[kagaos]

Alright, well I ordered bulk Pyritinol from CH and got it in today.
I was excited to try it out so I measured out 400mg and downed it.

Now, I found something stating that pyritinol is supposed to taste nasty and be water soluble.
Surprisingly, the bulk powder I got fit neither of these criteria. It was tasteless, and highly hydrophobic.

My first thought was, OH SHIT what if it's huperzine a!? I called them and they assured me it wouldn't be. But they couldn't confirm for me that it was pyritinol. All he could say was that "it is what it is...we just got this new shipment in...it is what it is..."

Long story short I just want to know if cerebral health sells anything that is a hydrophobic, tasteless, off-white powder that could harm me in the dosage of 400mg?

This is how I think P ought be taken:

I'm not recommending this particular supplier, it's just an example of how a professional approach to nootropic formulation might be taken so that a predetermined and reliable dosage can be taken in a formulation that includes fillers etc to enable easy handling/storage and swallowing. And tablets can be constructed to 'dilute' the active ingredient to reduce its taste, or a sugar coating can be used to mask it. P is known to be bitter tasting though some users say it has a nasty taste that is hard to get rid of.

Maybe GC can comment on the form of P he can supply and answer some of the chemical/physical property questions above. Maybe kagos should return the product so that GC can have it analysed. GC is usually very helpful in this area and problems do happen, even in the most professionally run companies. That's life. Send it back ...
