Glucose loading cures everything?

Here's an article about the phenomenon: https://news.mit.edu/2024/understanding-why-autism-symptoms-sometimes-improve-amid-fever-0523
"developmentally determined" hmm

Maybe Wakefield was right
@sippy have a read of that thread and the blog link. After GPs insight there.

Bumping this thread. I want to see MORE!

@Kilgore welcome!
Thanks for the nudge, I've been meaning to share a bit. I'll try to soon, but I'm still having reactivations and immune responses - which I think is positive, but it's quite exhausting.
Is there anything in particular you'd like to know?
-
I also would love to see more. Very interesting.
My experience with dextrose is a definite stabilization of mood and euphoria, typically I need 50g to feel this and 50g sugar does the same in terms of direction of effect, but not strength.
-
We still use glucose, but our high dose experiment is over. I use it often instead of regular sugar in tea, coffee, etc. I'm on to the next experiment now, low dose nicotine patches. So far I like the effects, but that's for another thread. I'm also going back on Idealabs Mitolipin...for asthma, which I've never had until recently (likely a post covid ailment).

dam, if I can't see s-Holmes' comments does that mean I'm blocked or something?

@S-Holmes
Do you have any positive feedback from the glucose loading?Also where did you get the low dose patches? 7mg is the lowest I have seen but I would like 2 or 3 mg.
Thanks

Don't take it personally. This is probably why.

@Hando-Jin I wish I could meet @ThinPicking

@ThinPicking hahahahaha
I mean I thought I was fair with S-Holmes, I shared some serious disagreements on a few occasions but thought it was non-malicious… oh well happy new years!
-
I was an obnoxious bastard but it was also non-malicious. Now I see in the dark.
Happy New Year!

Wow seems like an unethical use of blocking when there was no abuse or meanness — totally stopping moving forward scientific inquiry and development... I had thoughtful criticism of glucose loading and now she’s even given up on it.

Okay, so your experiment can be summarized as:
You spent years reading information, instead of cracking the organism's algorithm yourself, you wasted all that time trying to copy what looked like recommendations and failed, and now, after getting tired of your attempts and feelings, you have only the strength left to search for "miracle drugs" - but it turns out there are none!
I can only tell you that the solution to your problems definitely exists! If you have invested many years in reading information from Ray Peat and others, then you have an excellent foundation and you can absolutely do what it takes to crack the puzzle yourself. No one has provided us with the finished puzzle ready to use and you probably haven't realized it until today (If you say you've applied everything you've learned and still haven't been able to fix the system).
By the way, this brain valve is biological nonsense that the doctor invented to bridge his gap in understanding the organism.
The active thyroid hormone T3 is required to provide enough glucose to the brain
Inflammation, intracellular calcium, nitric oxide, and intracellular estrogen prevent proper cell function, including efficient utilization of glucose
Fructose with glucose as in fruits, honey, and white sugar is a powerful tool for repairing metabolism and the liver, but if the liver is too fatty - fructose can accelerate fat accumulation even more and the balance between glucose and fructose consumption needs to be found depending on the state of the system, such as the level of fat in the liver and the ability of the cells to accept and burn glucose - because excess sugars in relation to the body's ability to utilize it, leads to the same problems as excess fats.
Reduce inflammation, serotonin, nitric oxide, estrogen, PTH, cleanse the digestive system and fat from the liver, supplement thyroid hormones with great skill, combine strength training, body warming and red light, avoid an anti-metabolic, pro-inflammatory diet - good luck (this is of course just super general information)

@S-Holmes watch out for choline overload with nicotine and mitolipin together

I am down to 40g per day.
I didn't see any benefit after about 2 or 3 months. I mean, no benefit ever in that time.
I am not saying there won't be, but I am doubting it in my case, which is to fix chronic headaches.
I am experiencing some interesting and beneficial results from microdosing and lion's mane 'shrooms. But glucose loading may not be working for me personally.
-
I gave this protocol a solid six months.
Approximately 5 tbsp dextrose per serving, 3x a day. So we are talking bags and bags of dextrose powder. In the ballpark of 600 calories per day from dextrose.
I didn't have major health concerns I was looking to address, but I did have some minor things I was wondering if the protocol would impact.
I have no success story to share, nor any tale of woe. I don't feel it improved nor detracted from my health.
I find myself quizzical as to the results Dr. Stephens reports having (100% success rate, curing all sorts of illnesses) versus what any of the self-experimenters have experienced (various maladies, some fledgling successes, very few finding it worth sticking out for six months).

@Ecstatic_Hamster you have a post from like 2015-2016 where you claim to have cured chronic headaches
