I also use supplements mostly, herbal and "Nutraceuticals" some nootropics.
L-Theanine and caffeine is a nootropic and is inexpensive.

I think the cholesterol threat is overrated. My total has been around 230-235 forever. That was considered normal at one point. Now it is considered too high. My doc wanted to put me on statins for it, and I said No Way. There are too many side effects for statins that outweigh the risks of slightly over normal cholesterol reading. If the reading gets over 300, that is when I would start getting concerned.
I take L-Theanine with Relora in the evening for it's relaxing effect. It's better than a glass of wine.
There is a company called Nootrobox that manufactures nootripics that I had looked at one point in the past to help with mental clarity. Does it do anything for you?
