I think you're referring to what I wrote? PM is pro metabolic, and ME is my diagnosis, often called ME/CFS internationally, but it's often just called ME in my country so I forgot to add the /CFS.

im thinking of trying this glucose loading thing but just a pre and intra and post workout shake for weightlifting / sprinting / etc workouts . some days I eat like 200g of honey in one sitting, it's like I can't get enough. I wonder if pure glucose will be better?

what is a good source for high quality glucose powder?

Yes, pure glucose is very therapeutic.

I buy it (dextrose) in bulk from Amazon, Earthborn Elements. Now brand is also good.

In the meantime I've had an H202 i.v. (c. 0.03%) which made me have a much increased craving for dextrose and carbs from c. 1/2h into it until half a day later.
I could get to sleep (calm and deep) only after I had finally filled up with enough carbs and dextrose.
Still wondering whether that observed raise in the metabolic rate by H202 is partly due to O2 delivery or due signalling effects of H202 itself and, thereof, perhaps even mainly a rise in thyroid hormone availability.Another thing:
It would be great to read the thoughts or experiences by those with digestive issues on the effect of dextrose dissolved with ground psyllium seeds (not husks).
Will the dextrose reach places further down the digestive system and aid and relieve the energetic needs of those tissues?Many will surely remember haidut's posts on high dose B3 etc. on healing of chronic GI conditions like Crohn's but IMO in practical reality such promises are bull. Especially so, I reckon, when those tissues don't have any glucose to use with it but only the typical abundance of GI short-chain fatty acids.
So far I've been continueing with 70grs every four hours or c. 35grs every two hours throughout the day. I.e. about 350grs daily.

I'm glad you brought this up. I seem to tolerate the glucose better by adding a small amount of acacia fiber and/or modified citrus pectin. I also add a bit of bamboo silica. And these are also highly recommended for gut healing. I'm at about 30 Tbsps daily and going to hold there for a while.
I had an H202 IV years ago and felt terrible for a while after. Besides the herx effect, H202 damages tissues, so my theory is it will take MORE glucose to help heal the epithelium. I like to brush teeth with H202 and sodium bicarb, but if I do it often, my gums get sore.
