Had researched different aspects of aspirin use at the old forum, including using the search term aspirin kidney.

Apparently it may lower the sodium portion of the NA/K ratio. A little sodium bicarbonate would at least partially remedy this, along with buffering the acidity of aspirin. It's also healthy for the kidneys all on it's own. One aspirin in 30ml of water, a light tap or two of sodium bicarbonate, stir, dissolve, wait for the bubble reaction, drink.

Edit: some example threads.

Another thing to consider is to ocassionally split the pills and doses, like 1/2 an aspirin two or three times a day. Or one aspirin in the morning, followed by another dose or two of 1/4 aspirin later on.

And going by all of the discussions, some K2 and Glycine rich foods would likely be helpful as well with regular aspirin use. Take note of the excipients in your pills as they can cause issues that some would blame on aspirin (has anyone checked US Bayer brand lately? Blech!) Pure powders are ideal and cornstarch is probably second best.

@LetTheRedeemed said in Traumatic Injury Supplemental Stack:

oral / dextrose

Ray had once mentioned a dab of honey for animals. I believe he had mentioned it in context of traumatic injury where they were at risk of dying on the spot.

My guess is that the same would apply to humans, and since it lasts so long a small bottle can easily be thrown into most medical kits or bugout bags.

@LucH
With standard Niacin i was now considering 50-100mg twice a day. I would try to hold that steady for a couple of months. Then afterward only two or three times a week and alternating with my mainstay Niacinamide.

Getting that dose semi-precise may be a challenge but there's plenty of time to figure it out before i begin.

Thank you again @LucH

Thank you for notifying.

The source website linked in the RP forum thread is very useful btw, a valuable bookmark imo. Because of Tamara Rubin i knew to stay away from Morton salt and to select certain Instant Pots if i wanted to avoid lead.

Watch those rice and pressure cookers too, some of them are downright contaminated.

@LucH Thank you as always. I'll re-research Niacin to take note of possible factors. That RP forum thread you linked has another useful link to a Niacin discussion at the PhoenixRising forum: https://forums.phoenixrising.me/threads/does-methyl-absorbing-niacin-neutralise-methyl-supplements.54918/#post-919667

@PeatPerspective, you're very welcome. A steady dose of 50mg with most meals would probably bring much of the benefits we've read about Niacinamide, especially if you keep it up for a while. It makes for interesting research too, at the RP forum i do a title only search using the word Niacinamide, so many potential benefits are posted, especially by Haidut.

@PeatPerspective
Starting 2 or 3 weeks ago i went on another Niacinamide protocol, one that i was going to actually stick with this time. At doses of 150-200mg twice a day, sometimes three times just to see if it would keep me awake at night.

I felt the calming effects the first day, as i had in the past, less than an hour after the dose. Now imagine coupling this with Taurine, Glycine and Magnesium, say goodbye to stress.

I recall in the past getting a little sleepy from it, and perhaps some sugar cravings, but not this time around.

I was going to do a standard Niacin protocol but postponed it for some time in the future.

@josh
Potential issues would be the source of ascorbic acid, if it's contaminated with metals as it often is, and would they absorb through the skin. Another concern with standard Vit-C is the toxic mold remnants from the manufacturing process and if they would cause any issues transdermally.

The same questions and concerns would apply to citric acid as well.

I'm guessing you're not using Quali-C in the bath as that seems prohibitively expensive.

@josh
Hey Josh, for clarification purposes i believe you may have meant grams as opposed to milligrams?

Just wanted to prevent future readers from getting confused.

Am also familiar with the Dr Myhill website, will dig up that article soon.

@Serotoninskeptic
I realize it's a cheat but that can be partially remedied by stirring in some ice cold low fat milk. It would likely tame down the sweetness too.
