@Mauritio No weight loss, shooting yourself in the foot, so to speak IDK.

@Wabi-sabi how much trehalose are you speaking of here?
Don't think youre gonna gain much weight from a few grams especially when it increases metabolism via uncoupling...

@Mauritio Sorry I haven't tried it, are you thinking of trying, or have done so, experiments can be fun though

@Wabi-sabi Im not sure how much other people take that's why im asking.
The first study I posted comes down to an HED of 20-30g , so still doable . If you're concerned about calories, you could replace it for the sugar in your milk or coffee.

I took 3.5g today and it seemed to have a gut cleansing effect , sustained clean energy. Less brain fog.
Actually made me a bit hypoglycemic from what i felt like , probably the increase in metabolism. So taking it with a meal should help.
My face also looks better/younger. IIRC it's used in cosmetics because it has a filling effect.
Not bad.

@Mauritio @yerrag Yep, used in cosmetics, good stuff, and yerrag I thought of you and Parkinson's and the following;

Autophagy Activation
Trehalose stimulates autophagy, the cellular process that clears out damaged proteins and organelles.
Early days in research though.
