I began consuming carbs again. Some cookies, orange juice, lentils (molybdenum)… eventually I would start trembling and getting desperate again. I took certain supplements (which stabilized me for a bit) and now I’m trying to fast again

@Corngold said in Solutions for head heaviness?: Buteyko or periodic breathing techniques, EFD or getting a break and going outside. I’ve tried different breathing methods a few years ago with good success, usually box breathing and the 4-7-8 technique, but I’ve noticed over the last few years as my energy has gotten lower, that those breathing techniques have not been as helpful - it could be that I need more rounds to achieve the same effect. Related to breathing techniques, I used a nasal dilating strip on my nose last night which helped enormously with the head heaviness so far today - I suspect that I’ve had chronically poor breathing at night that has been leading to greater sensations of head heaviness over time, and it will take a few nights of proper airflow to recover from the feeling fully. I’ve been mouth taping for a few years now, but my nose is a tad crooked and the airflow out of each nostril is uneven, so I think I have a deviated septum. I tried nasal dilation previously but I didn’t stay consistent with it. Mouth taping without nasal dilation (via adhesive strips or an internal dilator) is likely causing poor recovery during night and leading to feeling awful/low energy/having brain fog in the morning and throughout the day, especially at work where stress is higher. I notice that I’m usually just starting to feel better and more focused at the end of the work day and when I return home. I’m hoping I’m right and that after a few nights of better airflow through my nostrils that I will see a full recovery from the head heaviness.

@winters said in Glasses with Blue Light filter?: So I would be wearing these all the time. Is this good? The blue light coating on prescription glasses reduces but does not eliminate the amount of blue light that reaches the eye. You may be surprised that objects that are colored blue still appear to be blue while wearing your new glasses. However, a mild reduction is better than no reduction. Do Blue Light Glasses Work? Here's What Experts Say

@peatyRD idk about grown hair being "dead" there's case reports of people's hair turning grey/white after trauma and reversing after, not just new growth where the "dead" ends stay white. like literally their whole hair color changes.

@happyhanneke said in Antibiotics for parasites and H pylori: Any thoughts? I know nothing about this. Against H. pylori in regions with endemic resistancies instead of going for a fluoroquinolone-based antibiotic combo (as offered with the package above) afaik a bismuth quatruple therapy would be much safer. Dunno if available in Nicaragua. In Argentina it'd be called "Trylori", as seen here under "Equivalencias internacionales": https://www.vademecum.es/espana/equivalencias/39634/pylera-140-mg-125-mg-125-mg-capsulas The metronidazole it contains is no candy either and will leave an aftermath of damaged cells and mitochondria and works well against amoeba, though. Also, I don't see the prescribed antibiotic to have any effect against parasites. Amoeba maybe. Against parasites you'd need to know which. I recommend against albendazole if possible because that is super brutal. The much less absorbed mebendazole is the tolerable choice for action within the intestinal lumen, if the parasites in question are susceptible to that and do not require a differenct substance class altogether.

@DavidPS @Kvirion i will look at the videos you sent me later as i got some exams coming up thank you for your advice

yes goy, buy our supplement.. don't eat the vegetables... yes goy vegetables are toxic, don't you know.. take our supplement instead..... after all, vegetables are le.. bad!!!!!11!@

I have tried the Progest-E as well, but even this, did not raise my Progesterone level. Therefore, Progesterone in Vitamin E has a very short half life, just the opposite of what Peat said.

Where to get real pharma andracrim dht ? I have ppl but I am afraid an dont take. Possible to get rx from hormone doctor? is idealab androsterone equivalent ?

@Luke That's exactly how I feel except the negative effects are felt within 5 minutes. It's been over ten years since I've had daily, prolonged fluorescent light exposure so I no longer have any built up tolerance to it now. I doubt it's wifi as I've never noticed any difference with turning the router off at night or moving it as far away from my computer setup as possible. However, I only have a single router, I'm sure office complexes have many along with boosters. I agree, office work is soul crushing. Working from home is a big step up since you have more control over your environment even if the work lacks real meaning.

@sushi_is_cringe pineapple is one of my favorite go tos. I don't worry much about citric acid bc canned or fresh pineapple is peak fruit.

@William-Shat add "insufflating thiamine powder" to the meme I posted in junkyard

@sushi_is_cringe i aint

@MuleMan I just go by Peat’s word, not doing more than that within an hour. But I think NDT absorbs differently and might be ok to do bigger doses. I would just hate to overload the liver and have it dump what it perceives as excess t3. But I think you would be able to tell if this is happening or not

@Davida Then I find this by the man: I doubt that there is any biological significance in the idea of leptin resistance. Leptin promotes inflammation and cancer, so it might be good to be resistant to it, but I think the concept is mainly an outgrowth of the pharmaceutical industry's promotion of leptin as a cure for obesity.

@cs3000 Interesting. Thank you.

@GRay I am probably going to get labs done here soon.

Some things to look at: Elevated white count -> Get an ultrasound to check for Pericarditis and other hidden infections (gum disease, wisdom tooth sockets or other cavitations - get a cavistat scan). Check appendix, etc). Drop any extra supplements and aspirin, you may be over thinning your blood. Other advice here is good, stop messing with thyroid meds unless a need is biochemically confirmed. Start meditating and learn how to relax your breathing into your belly.
