DNP=DANGEROUS, high dose aspirin instead?
-
I remember seeing somewhere that aspirin combined with caffeine could, with ideal dosing produce effects around ~75% of the potency of DNP, but that was a while ago and I don't know where I saw it. Probably Twitter, though I have an inking haidut spoke about it on the old forum at some point.
I think it was 1g caffeine combined with 1.5-2g of aspirin per day, though obviously not all at once, more spread out.
Obviously depends on bodyweight, the gnomelings probably need less -
@Juri yeah it would be for fat loss. It’s not that I dont feel any effects of aspirin, just nothing like how people describe DNP.

It does suck, I've ran it once and you get extremely hot. I made the mistake of taking it during summer so nights were terrible, I had to sleep with a towel underneath myself to absorb the sweat.
I wouldn't recommend it, people have died of overheating from it. If you were to try it though, now's the best time since the weather is fairly cold, so it would balance out with the heat you generate.

@mexican_coke_fan Can you tell us more about your experience? Dosing, weight lost etc? Or have you written about it elsewhere?

@grymsky90210
This was years ago, so I don't recall the exact dosage. I think the caps I ran were 250 mg, but I don't recall if I took it once or twice a day. I think there were days where I took it twice a day.All I really remember is that I was always hot, and sleeping was extremely hard. I was very sweaty, I remember going to a bible study drenched in sweat once, I probably looked ridiculous.
That first run, I lost 10lb in 10 days. I was going for 14 days but I just couldn't take it anymore. I didn't have a way to measure it, but I'm fairly certain I only lost fat, because my lifts did not suffer at all.
I tried doing a second run, but I ended up with an allergic reaction, so I just stopped. My lips got really swollen and I got hives, I had to go to the ER to get an IV of benadryl or something. I honestly didn't do enough due diligence to prep for that possibility, but if you do your research, this is possible so people tend to have benadryl on hand, just in case.

@mexican_coke_fan Did you keep the weight off or did it come right back?
-
@grymsky90210 I gained it back eventually, but I couldn't tell you how fast that was. I was not strict with my diet at all lol.
-
@grymsky90210 I gained some of mine back afterwards but ate liberally on a month vacay. I've heard it can make you temporarily hypothyroid
-
@onliest according to Conciliator’s posts on the old forums, the anti-thyroid effect of DNP is probably a myth, I don’t see why it would be antithyroid
-
@grymsky90210 I never heard a proposed mechanism behind that but anecdotally people seem to have a tough time losing weight after a cycle. Seems like people just take the two together arbitrarily because they think T3 will aid weight loss. DNP alone is so effective I really don't think it's necessary. In my experience T3 isn't great for weight loss unless you respect the randle cycle.

Try 80mcg per day of clenbuterol
With 6 g per day minimum of taurine, to avoid cramping
DNP and aspirin both didn't work for me, and they both had side effects
Clenbuterol seems to work slowly, but you need to take a bunch of taurine, I actually take 6 g right after I take clen, and then more later in the day.
The cramping is very painful if you don't do so
