@CrumblingCookie said: That's just over a week. Dysautonomia as a distinct self-sustaining entity per se is a thing that develops over weeks and months as a result of other functions being screwed up. For you it's a reactive, secondary symptom to an acutely underlying primary issue. As for the resting heart rate and tachycardia when standing maybe you are simply lacking fluids or electrolytes like sodium, potassium, magnesium or calcium because of the heat or traveling or your gut issues. Well, the pain in the side which may or may not be related has been transient for months. It really could just be a seperate muscle issue, because I do have pain in that side when I twist my torso either direction. Maybe it's connected only in that I have a possible potassium deficiency which made a pulled/tight muscle feel worse, or maybe I have low ferritin/iron levels, and that caused some muscle spasms/pain, and then when I got to low enough levels the high heart rate/terrible whole body feeling manifested. I also recall feeling less and less strong in workouts etc. so maybe this really was slowly building up over months and I just didn't notice. I don't usually wear a HR monitor unless I'm walking. Been taking that Liquid I.V. stuff to boost electrolytes/potassium ( I feel better every time I take it) and trying to eat potassium rich foods, and since I started taking the Zyrtec and Pepcid AC, the past 4 days have been the best so far. I'm taking 10-15 mg melatonin, magnesium glicinate 500 mg, and chamomile + lavender tea to help me sleep, for the past 4 days I've gone from getting barely 2 hours a night to about 4-6. I seem to be recovering. Yesterday after I posted the thread, all day I had a standing heart rate under 100. Down to as low as 80. Standing heart rate was usually around 85. And I didn't feel as bad. Felt almost back to normal. Today it was also trending under 100 for part of the day. All good signs. I'm going to add taurine to my sleep stack. So it'll be: 10-15 mg Melatonin 500 mg Magnesium Glycinate Chamomile+Lavender tea 1000 mg taurine Anyone have any other supplements that you've experienced help with sleep? Taurine has definitely help me sleep deeper and longer before.

It's the only time of the year when I go back to my crappy paleo days and do cold showers. Nothing better than an ice-cold shower when it's 38 degree Celsius outside with 60%+ humidtiy. Also, if you have a warm or even hot shower in times like these, your bathroom will turn into a sauna for days on end because the humidity has nowhere to escape. I also found ice-cold non-alcoholic beer like Bitburger 0.0 or Krombacher 0.0 more refreshing than other beverages. Only 25 degree forecasted for tomorrow, yeah!

@lobotomize said: @Alsulaimani take pregnan its a neurosteroid and gaba a agonist . cycle it so to not kardashian yourself Was going to say that this a job for high quality pregnenolone. @alsulaimani , most of the pregnenolone on the market is reported to be impure junk that won't work as expected. One of the precious few products we can recommend with a degree of confidence is from Haidut's store. You may also want to try cycling thru a few magnesium forms till you find one that hits you the right way. For myself the Mag sulfate, bicarbonate, hydroxide and chloride forms make me care much less about negative comments from people, but there are limits. Small doses throughout the day work well for me. Calcium is calming for some so maybe take a tiny bit along with your Mag for proper mineral balance. Androsterone in low-mid doses makes me very outspoken, that may not be good in a retail environment. It does feel good though. Haidut's 11-keto-DHT product reminds me of a stronger pregnenolone and i can even feel it lowering the cortisol response of too much morning coffee on an empty stomach. But personally i'd start on Pregnenolone and Mag and test that protocol for a few weeks. Let us know how it works out.

@jimmynelson I have been taking it for two days, so far no issues

@sunsunsun I have been doing 1.5mg every day the last few weeks The appetite suppression is real, and sometimes I have to remember to eat something to get carbs and protein in The libido increase is just as advertised after using a few times and something you have to try to believe The tanning seems to be like a microdose of melanotan, as I'm tanning a little easier but not dramatically so The metabolism increase seems to be there, as I get tired from hypoglycemia easier and need more carbs to offset it

@hawk1 @hawk1 I'd be careful with stacking a bunch of bioregulators at once. If you decide to try them I'd start with one and see how you respond before adding anything else. From what I've seen epitalon and pinealon are probably the most commonly discussed for sleep and recovery, while cartalax gets mentioned a lot for joint support. The biggest challenge is that there's not a ton of high- quality human data on many of these, so it can be hard to separate real effects from placebo. If sleep and recovery are your main goals I'd focus there first before experimenting with performance related peptides.

@evan.hinkle yes i agree it isn't conclusive, all theory

I think it has to do with bile flow issues /cholestasis. IIRC a progesterone metabolite is implicated in pregnancy induced cholestasis. "Significantly less hepatic bile partitioned into the gallbladder in progesterone-treated than in control animals." https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1191632/ Ive had similar issues in the past when taking pregnenolone and progesterone. Id try some things that help with cholestasis like TUDCA, gentian or cascara.

@Atman cool thanks i also agree my original post is more a critique of bad local city council development practices, like doing stuff that makes built environment worse for another generation because economic will to tear down something just built even when it is bad is low

@gg12 In natural form and size, it already works. Nano is not only superfluous, but isn't proven safe.

@springsnow check DMs

Fresh berries and sliced bananas are always good upgrade. You can also do warm cinnamon apples, stewed cherries or a little vanilla Greek yogurt with fruit.

@CrumblingCookie megadosing ghkcu is literally proven suboptimal by the studies , and ghk base and ghkcu are interchangeable. the former will just pick up cu in serum. thats all.

@alfredoolivas fuck

I thought aspirin and/or baking soda w water is good for afterwards? Gummy bears or fruit before and during lifting, no?

@sunsunsun, thank you for sharing. We have a similar meal that’s a staple in my family, except we have the baked beans on the side. I’ll try it on the milk bread and see what my dad thinks. Thanks again!

@Milk-Destroyer I steam potatoes for 75minutes and then peel them with a knife. russet potato peels especially seem suboptimal. the French are correct in their method of potato preparation. Then instead of adding butter I just eat with 87/13 ground beef and use the fat from that mixed in the potatoes. with ketchup and finely diced raw red onion.

I live in china, I got it from taobao
