    @DavidPS you're welcome. Theobromine is supposed to be less stimulating for the CNS than caffeine. Here's another study where it strongly increased tyrosine hydroxilase and dopamine receptors in a mouse model of ADHD. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/380300570_Theobromine_improves_hyperactivity_inattention_and_working_memory_via_modulation_of_dopaminergic_neural_function_in_the_frontal_cortex_of_spontaneously_hypertensive_rats

    the whole point of a human forum is for people to talk to each other and not post their chatgpt logs to one another. I can do that with an llm myself. I didn't read your post because it's about as interesting as reading your lecture notes

    @engineer said in Peaty protein bars. Why do these not exist?: Why are there no Peaty protein bars and what is stopping someone from cornering the market with them? Not a protein bar, but I’ve used homemade gummy bears (gelatin, juice, honey or sugar, salt) as a Peaty substitution while mountain climbing or running errands.

    @jamezb46 said in pre workout / intra / post workout: @BioEclectic Why do you think lactic acid produces DOMS? From what i had read at the old RPF forum, though i always hold open the possibility that i have either misconstrued or misremembered whatever i had read. Not sure if this applies but I do know it noticeably reduces work or shoe related foot soreness. Mag sulfate and Mag bicarbonate.

    @BioEclectic Thanks for the reply. This is actually for a family member. I'll advise to use iodine. If that doesn't work we'll try the tea tree oil and maybe some peppermint/rosemary. I also ordered some Lotramin which is supposed to be effective against it.

    @Insr said in Immune system support post chemotherapy?: "I was seeing new patients almost weekly who developed thyroid disease after attempting high dose iodine." - from: https://www.drchristianson.com/blog/the-iodine-controversy/ I know you want to do well. Let's take the 1st source: huge amount of iodine => Too much of a good thing is bad. Transient effect. Hashimoto without selenium to protect against immune reaction. a low dosage required. => The sources I give are from medical practitioners, with a high reputation, not like the ones I saw ... *) Do you suffer from iodophobia ? https://mirzoune-ciboulette.forumactif.org/t2092-souffrez-vous-diodophobie#30093 *) Report of a discussion on Bioenergetic.com forum where I was asked to give a piece of advice. GRay asked my advice on this video from Mercola https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R085kZw3YBQ Mercola/Strong Sista and Alan Christianson on excess Iodine Here is my answer on the forum bioenergetics.com forum https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/3795/mercola-strong-sista-and-alan-christianson-on-excess-iodine/3?_=1740594928529 In context Iodophobia was almost born with the publication of a study by Wolff-Chaikow in 1948. In short, “the thyroid protects itself against an acute excess of iodine by suppressing the metabolism of iodine. » This is a transitory effect. The simple fact of providing iodine in supra-nutritional quantities to a subject regularly increases his TSH, sometimes to double digits for a period of several months, to spontaneously return to commonly accepted norms afterwards, and this, in a perfectly spontaneous manner.

    @Luke, how is your thyroid function? This is probably an overly simplistic explanation, but my mechanistic guess is that progesterone is anabolic, supporting the thyroid/parathyroid glands, the main glands responsible for the integrity of all connective tissues in the body, and lowering the catabolic hormones cortisol, adrenaline etc. The plumber’s thyroid may have been healthy enough for Progest-E to reverse the damage. For someone like myself who was chronically hypothyroid, Progest-E provided only temporary relief.

    @gloryus thank you, very much appreciate the insight; yes I did find it a little odd at the length of time he’s been doing this and the results, nevertheless he does say it’s a “work in progress”, or words to that effect. Also Elwin’s blood results did seem somewhat positive from trying certain aspects of this “protocol”. Totally agree with the blood letting/cupping as being a very good way of reducing iron as well as reducing overall intake via food - surprised he didn’t mention at least the blood letting as a way to reduce one’s iron - having said that, I haven’t read the 132+ pages of comments on this “protocol”. Still trying to make sense of it all.

    @brenn just posting here for completeness, I got word from hair protocol expert that rosemary oil tends to cause endless sheds as long as it is being applied regularly whereas peppermint oil will cause a likely initial shed that stops and regrowth is promoted with continued usage

    Thanks for the responses everyone. Re-evaluating sugar seems to be helping quite a bit - and the amount that feels good seems to be in line with 5-10 grams per cup. I'm able to tolerate 2 cups again, up from 1. We'll see how high it ends up going lol. ""Symptoms to expect when you do coffee right are calmness, focus, motivation, warmth, and stable energy. Coffee done wrong leads to anxiety, shakiness, sweating, feeling wired, inability to focus, and sometimes cold extremities."" This right here seems very much correct! No shakiness or "tired-but-wired" feeling, and sleep these past few days has been a bit better, but I know new habits take a while to test. I suppose I've been progressing over the years - black coffee in my early 20s, adding some milk in my late 20s, and now I'm adding sugar I guess. Better metabolic and stress tolerance habits as I age. It's like there's some reserve of stress tolerance we build up as carefree teenagers that we slowly but surely deplete through dumb habits (black coffee, fasting, etc) and life stress as we get older. Well, never too late to get on the right track, right?

    @JamesL that's just my experience. No response whatsoever from prohormones in general without smashing cortisol/serotonin down first. You can probably do this naturally just by eating above maintenance and maybe some caffeine.

    @LucH I read Dr Browstean book years ago and started the Iodine. However, lately I have changed completely my mind about it. I made a post in the forum, if you have time, watch the video attached to it and let me know what you think about, this is completely the opposite view on Iodine. https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/3795/mercola-strong-sista-and-alan-christianson-on-excess-iodine?_=1739569295506

    I used the Mousse for a while, it did make my teeth whiter and less sensitive to cold. Stopped using it because you do actually ingest it & some of the ingredients are dodgy.
