@Milk-Destroyer said: Any coffee drinking plants in the audience, care to elaborate? Plants appreciate coffee grounds as fertilizer. But what about coffee poured on the soil? Short answer: No. Undiluted caffeine = herbicide. It's a trap many people fall into, thinking they're doing the right thing. While coffee grounds (already brewed and decomposed) are often appreciated in moderation, pouring the rest of your cup of liquid coffee directly onto the soil is generally a bad idea, especially for potted plants. The liquid coffee we drink doesn't have the same properties as the solid residue (the grounds). It presents three major risks to plants: Caffeine is an herbicide In nature, the coffee plant produces caffeine* for a very specific reason: to inhibit the growth of other plants around it, thus preventing competition for water and nutrients. It is a natural herbicide. Liquid coffee still contains a high concentration of caffeine, unlike coffee grounds, which have been leached by hot water. Pouring it on the soil can inhibit root development in your plants. NB: It's the role* of polyphenols to bring defense. Chlorogenic acids are the primary polyphenols in the coffee plant to be considered. Excessive acidity Black coffee is very acidic (its pH is often between 4.5 and 5.0). If you pour it undiluted onto a plant that prefers neutral or alkaline soils (such as thyme, lavender, or geraniums), you will acidify the substrate too drastically, which blocks nutrient absorption… The Additive Trap (Sugar and Milk) If your leftover coffee contains sugar or milk, it's a recipe for disaster for a houseplant. The sugar will feed harmful bacteria and attract fungus gnats, while the milk fats will rot, create mold, and clog the soil pores, suffocating the roots. How to recycle your leftover coffee cleanly? Diluted coffee grounds in compost = hormesis effect. 100 ml of black coffee in one liter of water (10%), but only for plants that prefer acidic soil: hydrangeas, camellias, rhododendrons, or houseplants like ficus, and no more than once a month. Still too concentrated.

@ZackVegas ever considered black ginger?

@Elella Wow,looks pretty unusual and splendid. Great job)

Replying to an old thread on off chance it might help someone. Have had tinnitus on and off for months. It was never fully gone in that time. I assumed it was caused by endotoxin (diet has been mixed at best lately) and/or higher than usual aspirin use. I took 250mg of niacinamide earlier and the tinnitus is now completely gone. It's a shock to not even hear it as a background hum, which shows me just how constant it's been these past months. Ray gave the advice years ago that niacinamide can treat it. Worth trying.

Would it be a good idea to add minoxidil to the mixture for extra hair growth? If you are making it homemade, the main issue with minoxidil (needing to use it constantly or lose the benefits) ceases to exist because the cost gets pushed so low. Edit: According to Grok, it looks like minoxodil wouldn't work because of the salicylic acid, which breaks down the sulfotransferase enzymes that minoxidil depends on to function.

@sunsunsun lol. Yes You can buy lots of combo pills of this though. I find it strange. It doesn’t seem to be taken together but who knows.

@Korven yeah I just avoid it now. it's the mark of a low quality food product anyways, or it was designed by a food scientist that has selective attention when reading the research on these additives.

@lobotomize lol but emphasis on the “babe” …my joke failed

@jamezb46 @sunsunsun @lettheredeemed

@CrumblingCookie it isnt direct the only evidence for bdnf caused hair loss is in animal models so take that statment with a grain of glucose

@KM88 so you only eat chicken and eggs ? you are yet to answer what your diet is made out of

@PissBoy he ascended

Has anyone here tried this SS-31 yet? It's available as a peptide for injection from the usual suppliers. Essentially, it repairs/rescues impaired, dysfunctional mitochondria. People online write to run SS-31 before trying to induce any mitochondrial fission/proliferation by e.g. MOTS-C, or even to tun SS-31 first before blasting NAD+ or other stimulators of the ETC which would require properly functioning mitochondria in the first place.
