@disfrutarlo Patrick Timpone asked Ray Peat that about the paper bag, whether you breathe through your nose or your mouth, and Peat said "It doesn't matter." The way he described it, the bag goes over your mouth and nose and is held tight around your face, so you can breathe through your nose the whole time. He said it only takes about a minute before it gets hot and uncomfortable, and you stop when it's too much. You wouldn't have the jug's leftover CO2 between sessions, but there's no mouthpiece.

@engineer quick lookup says ginger increases the effect of nitric oxide which can increase blood flow and erections

@chudlord please, stop with the experiment. The only reason your body tolerated the halo for so long is due to the otherwise therapeutic substances you were consuming. The energy and focus you had were high adrenaline and cortisol, for a few days your body will manage, then the hangover will come. The intestal issues came due to the halo, arguing that is is unrelated is wrong. The substance creates extreme liver toxicity. The intestal issues and decreased appetite is your body’s reaction to the inability to produce bile, which would digest food. You cannot break down meals, so it is protecting itself by lack of appetite for eating. Before trying new substances, I would simply recommend asking AI or searching on ray peat wiki in the podcast archive section, if Peat or Haidut have not talked about it somewhere, more often than not, you will find some comment on it.

@lunaticred Youll lose your mind on 20mg a day for a month, and if you don’t, you are seriously excitatory and need to look into that

@LunaticRed any updates?

@engineer is sexo performance higher

@Verdad update?

Had to quit, after each smoke, my digestion got horribly worse… I came across this, and it makes sense: https://youtu.be/zZCgpw6_sRA?si=qcNsO9j7S8P_Aj-r Presently, I believe it’s the classic case of everything is bad when your health is outta wack. May try again when I think I’m doing good on every front.

@engineer I took some androsterone a while back but like 1-2 drops every few days. I took pansterone daily for 1 month as well.

Over the past week I have worked my way up to 1mg a day. The effects maybe have increased, but the reason it might not have done so more is because of low estrogen from exemestane. I know this could be the case because I heavily sweat during naps now, one classic symptom of low E2.

@TexugoDoMel I haven't used it for a week now because I didn't like my moles darkening. So, I still have 19 more vials left sitting around and I have no clue what to do with them. Looks like maybe PT141 would still have the pro metabolic effects without the darkening but the MCR affinities are a little different. Maybe if I want a tan I could experiment with gene therapy to change the natural skin color? I don't know what Ray Peat thought about gene modification though.

my eyesight goes from -4.0 glasses to perfect 20/20 can see eagles in the distance and individual branches of trees a mile away and license plate numbers and letters when the sun is out and I have good posture

i am now re thinking this idea after finding another patent using losartan for hair US20160081901A1 - "Compositions and methods for hair growth"

@PissBoy while you get your lisuride, also get some pansterone and kuinone because they are incredible products too hope you see great results!

@DKJoeAgain now that I think about it, it has been more like 2 months, but even so I tend to respond quickly to supplements. Usually, the way I've done it is I add on something, wait several days to feel what the effects are, and assess. The effects seem to plateau after that so that's how I've been able to assess them. For the pyrucet, the carb burn effect isn't really something you feel but rather something you observe. So although I might have felt a little warmer in the midsection (due to faster digestion of things like orange juice) the end result is that I feel hungrier and hypoglycemic much earlier than if I had not taken the pyrucet. It was shocking how much earlier it was at first but now I've gotten used to it. And you can tell the carbs were burned, because you feel no more bloating than without the pyrucet with the same amount of carbs.

@user1 Feel like my muscles are "poisoned" or "heavy," especially during the second set or compound lifts. Circadian rhythm delay. Extreme grogginess in the mornings. Milk being the only thing I changed that could have contributed to these

@jamezb46 cool. I've been reapplying it at least twice a day... it warms me up
