@LucH I forgot to mention, the protein and calcium is mostly from skim milk, which is why both values may seem high, my diet is essentially 2-3L of skim milk and some low fat yogurt from morning on, and dinner is a regular balanced meal with most of the fats being at dinner.

Add selenium to your diet you are probably deficient. Causing iodine to be unable to do anything

Too much of a good thing is bad.
Not that the dose is not adéquate but ...
1 + 1 + 1 = 5 when overloading the détox pathway. Açumulation.

@Tarzan17 said in i wake up very bloated in the morning:

every morning, i wake up so bloated before having eaten anything.

Hi,
Tell what you do and don't do, on a regular basis. Don't comment. The comment may come later. Separate the problems and the comments, if pertinent.

Try sleeping face down (on your tummy) if you can. That’s the best position for your gut (ray said to someone in an email) as well as for breathing.

@samson the ribose is not being reduced if it is interacting with MB, it is being oxidized.

I think about this thread once in a while to this day.

@Turk said in Why Does Wine Help with preventing Nighttime urination?:

Most nights I have to get up to pee, 1am, 2am, 4am most of the time, but have noticed when I drink wine, usually half or a full bottle, I dont need to wake up to pee. Does anyone know why this helps?

For anyone in the future searching for key terms like nocturia, waking to pee, night time urination, wake to pee, etc... When I am not calories restricting and just eating how I feel like, wine and or icecream about 1.5hrs before bed helps me to not pee during the night. And when I'm in a calorie deficit those dont seem to work, but what has worked was taking some cynoplus 1.5hrs before bed, a smaller dose than with my meals, it was about 20mg of cynoplus = 3.75mcg of T3, 15mcg T4.

@winters2 might just be bacteria thriving due to lack of dental hygiene, would repeatedly brush teeth until it no longer stains the toothpaste

@Tarzan17 potatoes are extremely hard to overeat in my experience, maybe just try some potatoes with coconut oil and plenty of salt

There is an hormone called secretin which is linked to peristalsis, bile and water homeostasis.

It tends to slow digestion in the stomach but with respect to water homeostasis, it's more anti-diuretic.

Some more information why / when high dose vit E could interfere ...
Vitamin K uses the same pathway as Vit E
Does vitamin K supplementation deplete vitamin E?

There are several aspects of vitamin K’s biochemistry that suggest high doses vitamin K could have adverse effects on our health:
• Vitamins E and K are broken down in similar pathways (Shearer, 2008). High doses of either one elicit an increase in these catabolic pathways by activating a common receptor known as the steroid and xenobiotic receptor (SXR) or the pregnane X receptor (PXR). As a result, high doses of one will elicit the destruction of the other. Thus, high-dose vitamin K could contribute to vitamin E deficiency.
• Second, a small portion of vitamin K is broken down to a compound known as menadione (Thijssen, 2006). Some of the menadione is used to synthesize MK-4, but high concentrations are toxic. We therefore conjugate a portion of the menadione to glutathione, the master antioxidant and detoxifier of the cell, and excrete the complex into our urine. High doses of vitamin K could therefore deplete glutathione. This would impair detoxification, and along with vitamin E depletion it would hurt antioxidant activity.
• High doses of vitamin K can inhibit bone resorption, which is probably the mechanistic basis by which 45 mg/day reduce fracture risk (Iwamoto, 2013). While bone resorption sounds like a bad thing, we need to use it every day to help our bones remodel themselves and adapt their structures to our lifestyles, and to keep blood levels of calcium within a precisely controlled range. We also use bone resorption to release osteocalcin into the blood, where it acts on multiple tissues to improve our metabolic and hormonal health (Ferron, 2007; Oury, 2013). Ironically, one of the benefits of vitamin K2 is to support proper production of osteocalcin, but high doses of the vitamin could hypothetically prevent us from using it. That would be expected to hurt blood sugar control, insulin sensitivity, our metabolic rate, and, in males, testosterone production.

@Chud I knew getting sunlight on my stomach would help with digestion !

@eduardo-crispino I doubt that I heard they are quite potent.

@random Yes this is my third month on 4mg i am still supplementing, first 2 months i was on 2mg.

@ThinPicking Ah I see, for a second I wasn't sure if the Lion switched his fulcrum out from HG7 to some type of giga-soma or something.

@BroJonas thanks for the update
