    In this human study using 1.5g/day, they saw some liver fat reduction, but unfortunetly no change in weight. So not all the benefits of the OP study seem to translate to humans. https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/2872/camu-camu-decreases-hepatic-steatosis-and-liver-injury-markers-in-overweight-hypertriglyceridemic-individuals-a-randomized-crossover-trial?_=1788701319075

    @ChroncStresChris Re "calcium d-glucarate, caffeine + K2, CO2, TUDCA, taurine, and niacinamide", That's a good idea of yours to focus on strengthening your liver. I would first try plain milk or eggshell powder for the calcium. They're less likely to cause digestive difficulty. Caffeine and k2 should be helpful, as well as should co2. I think I would drop the tudca coz the taurine takes care of what it would do (it's actually what I did for myself: bought it but soon after starting stopped using it) I'd also start with trying to get the nutrients from actual food, eg caffeine from coffee/tea, k2 and b vitamins from liver, taurine from seafood... And finally I guess you're also planning to get quality protein from things like cheese and eggs (along with something sweet like coke or orange juice to prevent triggering stress hormones) Good luck

    @wester130 because then you get the bad effects associated with cabergoline, which don't exist with bromocriptine

    @Jennifer Haha, that is funny.  Ice cream was the answer.  I think in our very modern and very deficient world, love is a component in healing, beyond the technical and mechanical parts of healing needed.  Love is indeed a powerful thing; even beyond the emotional response, the deeper security and hope that love provides.  A strange coincidence, I received an email today for an ebook on sale on this very subject.  I prefer physical books, but the price of ebooks is just too good to pass up for my budgeted life these days. I realize not everyone wants or needs everything broken down academically: to use an analogy I've heard, some just want to eat the apple, they don't have to look at it in a microscope. Books and authors are a personal taste, no doubt, but just in case it would interest you:  https://www.amazon.com/Four-Loves-C-S-Lewis-ebook/dp/B01EFM8NI4 I was not aware of the cloudy egg white, as evidence of more CO2.  Interesting.  I did notice the egg whites were a bit cloudy just recently, but thought that was due to the cold of the refrigerator.  I've never had Nounós yogurt, but it does indeed look to be the cream of the crop.  I like the A2 and the glass container.  Next time I make it to Whole Foods, which is hardly never these days, I'll look for it. I agree with your egg perspective.  I eat 2-4 a day myself.  I've been considering adding some of Haidut's vitamin E several times a week, but since my PUFA is quite low in general, I don't worry too much about it.  Wow, hives from the lichen-derived.  (And I see I used the word mushroom-derived in error.)  I think I'll look for lanolin-derived.  I don't feel well on the vitamin D3 supplement I have, which I think is synthetic.  But I don't feel well on any supplements.  I think Haidut's D3 was a little better, but I don't completely remember.  It's been years since I've had his. Yeah, grounding.  I haven't done that is a while. That does look like good mayo that you linked, as far as store bought goes.  And 17oz for $9 is actually not too bad.  It would cost me a few dollars more to make it myself, but I see that I would be able to use a better olive oil.  I promise, I'm not dogging your mayo , I'm just attempting to be objective in my evaluation.  I would take your olive mayo over all the soy based mayos any day.  Coincidentally, I did just make mayo after my last message and it didn't take at first.  Really, it's one of my least favorite things to make.  I can be a bit neurotic in my quest for quality, so I'll continue to do it until I really lose my patience with it.  I believe the problem is that I was using bottled lemon juice versus fresh.

    @PrinceTrebata very ho behaviour not replying. Sorry. I stopped the back ones and still don’t do them( I am still catabolic! Not getting stronger in the gym! Back aches! Bone hurts!) despite getting more than enough protein. This is perfect btw. I am not trying to be anabolic, as that usually entails with some sort of fat growth or water retention from AAS. But that’s a different story more suited for the moggy chicken Currently have been and am doing high seat biking. If I recover (hopefully when I slowly ramp up the calories), and those issues go away, I’ll throw in the stretches and stretching machine. If I find a sustainable routine with time.

    @sphenoid said in Thiamine almost fixed my chronic symptoms.: I’m having a hard time understand how sugar “cancels out” thiamine. Doesn’t just this mean thiamine will be used to metabolize the sugar? Same with caffeine. I got that info from the FAQs on Dr. Costantini's website. But from my own experience, I believe it to be true. I think the problem happens when the sugar and the thiamine are in the stomach at the same time. About Dr. Costantini (from the link above): "He is a neurologist in Viterbo, Italy with his own practice and 2,700 + patients that he is treating with thiamine as an adjunctive treatment to their standard PD meds. He has been treating his patients with PD for over 5 years now during which time no apparent disease progression has been observed while symptom improvement has been significant for most patients. "As far as thiamine, he has been working with it since 2010/2011. "He said that even if they couldn’t come to his clinic, he could still try to treat them via email. He said he needed a copy of their medical records and short videos of a Pull Test, of them talking, writing and a short video of them walking." -end paste- Unfortunately, he died in 2020. I believe that he had more experience actually treating people using high dose thiamine hcl than anyone else. His research papers are here. I take thiamine hcl since I was unable to tolerate TTFD thiamine (the favorite of Dr. Lonsdale and Elliot Overton) because my glutathione level was very low. So I've relied on Dr. Costantini's clinical experience that is shared on his website. I value Dr. Lonsdale's and Elliot Overton's articles and videos as the information is pertinent to supplementing with high dose thiamine hcl too. I should also say that Dr. Lonsdale and Elliot Overton and Dr. Chandler Marrs all talk about TTFD's "paradoxical" reaction which is negative side effects from taking TTFD that some patients "have to work through". In contrast, Dr. Costantini said that there should not be any negative symptoms from taking thiamine hcl and if that happened (rarely), he would take the patient off the treatment for a week and then resume with a dose half the amount as what caused the problem. My husband takes 200mg of TTFD/day and has never had any problem from taking it.

    @Lipidfree said in Bowel Movements: Sh*tmaxxing Strategies: @Skysnek What is usually recommended but didn't work for me regarding constipation: Cyproheptadine at 2mg/day Thiamine HCL at 100mg/day 2 carrots per day Magnesium citrate, up to 2.5g/day What worked but inconsistently: Coffee, from 7g to 45g of grounds per day Things I have yet to try but are in the books: Cascara Nicotine If coffee works for you, nicotine will def. work too. However, I don't believe it's the healthiest way to trigger a bowel movement. Try Magnesium Oxide.

    @basednigga2006 It is impossible to dose correctly, because there are many feedback mechanism involved, and interfering by just gripping into the spokes of the wheel is dangerous. It is always better to rely on your own body, if possible. Keep it healthy and well nourished. And find out why your cortisol is high, and work on the root cause, not the symptoms. But if you suffer under high cortisol, blocking it for a short time may bring you relieve and may be useful to bring you out of an acute situation. But not in the long term.

    @the-MOUSE If you feel rested when you wake up it shouldn’t really be an issue. But if you feel bad when waking up it could be due to stress hormones. Maybe eat ice cream before bed. It usually results in a good nights sleep for me. I also find that I need less sleep when I’m in good metabolic health.

    @the-MOUSE Tattoos are well known to lead to inflammation and immune responses. Thus even if there are no studies that looked at melanoma, it may at least be a theoretical risk. It seems to depend on the colours used. The bright colours may have more toxic metals. I herd of tattoos using black ink without heavy metals.

    @TopicalsOnBalls I have noticed this effect of resistant starches too - it makes me wonder how people tolerate batch-cooked meal prep that includes a lot of re-heated rice. Have you found a difference between eating this resistant starch cold/reheating it? I haven't tracked re-heated rice enough to say, but eating cold potatoes seems to have really irritated my poor digestive system.
