Dandruff or scalp irritation? Try BLOO.
Believe me when I say, you do NOT want to to taste benfotiamine. I only made that mistake once. Put it in capsules (use gelatin capsules).
The smell is quite pungent, and is easily recognizable when excreted in the urine.
I use this

@gentlepotato I was referring to just HOW deficient I was.
@gentlepotato basically, thiamine deficiency is almost as prevalent as hypothyroidism, in the two are very much intertwined.
It's an enzyme transporter, responsible for multiple parts of the ETC, and whole host of things. It's very easily depleted by oxphos, and by metabolizing alcohol.
Thiamine is actually very cheap if you buy powder and put it in capsules. I use benfotiamine. At first I took a couple grams a day, and it took a week before it started to excrete in the urine.
Incidentally, high dose thiamine cured my "seasonal allergies" where I would wake up every day congested or only able to breath through one nostril.
@takethiamine on X has detailed threads about B1maxxing.
This is a very interesting thread.
I am about halfway through the High Calorie Malnutrition book, and it seems to me that doing this sort of sugar therapy will require large doses of thiamine to keep your levels up. A b-complex is also good and necessary, but thiamine will be easily depleted on this sort of program, as I understand it.
OP,
Maybe 30 minutes to an hour before bed, get a glass of OJ and your sugarbowl. Eat a spoonful of sugar, and wash down with OJ. Do this till it stops tasting good, usually 4 or 5 spoonfuls for me.
Then have a drop or two of T3, and tell me you don't sleep like the dead, and wake feeling rested and like you've been dreaming.
If I don't do this sufficiently, I wake in the beginning stages of a migraine, which means I need a spoonful or two of coconut oil in the evening as well.
In this case, I do the OJ and sugar first thing when I get up.
So I started dry scooping half a teaspoon after each meal yesterday, and everything seemed to go well.
Today at work I dryscooped roughly a tablespoon, and about 1.5 hours later I was literally nodding off at my desk.
I don't feel tired/wired, just literally could barely keep my eyes open, and if I closed them almost immediately snored myself awake.
Unfortunately I cannot get away with dozing at work, but I would be interested to know I am interpreting consequences correctly.

RADTHOR is the newest and greatest invention this side of radio waves!
I have found when taking tyronene, that somrtimesi become almost narcoleptic, barely able to keep my eyes open. I think this is due to not consuming sufficient fuel, because if I made a point of eating or drinking significant glucose, I tend not to have this issue.
It seems like it might also possibly be that it relaxes me so much after years of high cortisol and adrenaline that I simply feel the fatigue all of a sudden. Haidut's kuinone seems to have a similar effect, but only sometimes.
What sort of peaty steps can I take for a loved one without a gall bladder?
Besides advising tablespoons of honey throughout the day, I also got them ox bile capsules.
Any other advice specific to this situation would be much appreciated.
Can you clarify about soaking the rice? Do you boil it for an hour, then skim, then boil again? Or do you mean you soak, skim, and then boil for 10 minutes?
I've been using my instapot to make rice, but I haven't been soaking and skimming. I should definitely be getting the excess starch out.
@skywxlker I worded that poorly. After a few days, I don't feel hot like I'm cooking, but I notice I am perfety content when everyone around me is wearing hoodies and sweatshirts.
@skywxlker I've cut pufa and most raw veggies, and have been taking desicated thyroid, and vits a, b complex, d, e k2 mk7, and calcium pretty much daily.
I know metabolism is improved, because I am now uncomfortably warn in more than shorts and t-shirt if it's 70 degrees (F).
I've been peating for maybe 2.5 months or do, in a serious way.
Cortisol is dropping rapidly, I feel better and more energetic than I have in years, buy I notice that I am catching every padding respiratory bug that winks at me.
I used to be practically bulletproof, maybe get some congestion and sniffles, take a fistful of vit C for 2 or 3 days and be over it. Lately it seems that I can neither dodge nor quickly beat it anymore.
Could this be because I'm basically in the awkward in between stage, improving but not yet healthy? The chronic cortisol and adrenaline were keeping me "healthy?"
What can I do for a peaty expectorant? I've got a heavy cough, but can't get it out of my lungs.
@FOR-THE-POTATO I tried to order some cypro right before I made that poast, and it required the aforementioned bs
@Chud
Doesn't seem to work for US, as it requires doc's name, phone, and prescription.
