I appreciate the replies. I'm getting a B-Complex soon which should of course help. I'm positive I'm currently getting enough potassium. But you are right that I probably need more magnesium. Appreciate the input.

RE: Why is Thiamine (HCL) Hyperthermic
@Master Update. Salt was the wrong way to go. Started getting bad heart palpitations and had to drink some orange juice to relieve. My guess is a magnesium deficiency. Either way, seems to create electrolyte imbalances in me in high doses.

Why is Thiamine (HCL) Hyperthermic
Whenever I take high-dose Thiamine HCL, I seem to enter a stressful hyperthermic state. I get a big rise in adrenaline, body temperature (often in excess of 37.2), excess sweating, shaking, and require a ridiculous amount of salt to prevent constant peeing. Is this due to too much CO2? Lowering of Serotonin?
My best guess is the former, as I should be raising CO2 beyond what would normally be in my system, thus, raising adrenaline.

RE: IdeaLabs supplements for sale (or trade)
I have a full 11-Keto-DHT bottle that I'd be willing to trade for something as well.

RE: High AST and ALT levels
Do you drink or do any drugs or smoke? How much meat do you eat?
A couple years back, I had sky high AST/ALT levels to the point that I had to get an emergency ultrasound. They couldn't find anything wrong, so they chalked it up to an acute injury. Technically didn't have enough fat on liver for NAFLD but was probably pretty close. I fasted for like a month and when I got tested again, had levels in range. Would not at all recommend fasting.
But what helps is anything that lowers visceral fat. It's very consistent way of lowering liver enzymes. Best way to do this would probably be by doing a more low fat diet.
Also, lowering serotonin should help. If you truly have elevated enzymes due to injury (which is not always the case, could be elevated for benign reasons), then lowering serotonin should block any further fibrosis.

RE: T3 causing weird feeling in chest at night
@scamp About a week now. And I didn't have any issues till early in the morning yesterday. I was having very good experience with T3/T4 mix all week, high temps, heart rate, slightly elevated mood. But yesterday morning I took some not long after I woke up, and at first, my temp stayed the same and I didn't feel anything, which I thought was odd. Then like 10 minutes later my temps when shooting down, almost dangerously low, and I damn there had a panic attack and uncontrollable shaking. I figured my blood sugar had crashed, so, I went to the grocery store, bought a big thing of dates and dried apricots and just gorged on those till I felt better and sure enough my temps went back up to 37 C within the hour.
I've always been taking it late morning to early afternoon. And obviously I've learned I have to be much more careful about eating a large meal plus lots of carbs prior.

Have you tried taking anti-histamines before going in the sun?

RE: T3 causing weird feeling in chest at night
@scamp Only time my temps have dropped on T3 so far has been from low blood sugar. So I respond by eating lots of fruit and orange juice.
Although I concur, I do also get a weird chest feeling while on it. Not painful or anything, and I'm almost positive it's not palpitations. Not sure what to make of it.

RE: Eating calcium acetate
I tried it a few weeks back. I crushed some egg shells and dissolved them in White Vinegar in one instance, and Apple Cider Vinegar in another. In both cases, it tasted absolutely terrible. It was very difficult to drink. Almost impossible to get over.
Also, it only seems to lower phosphate by binding to it. You don't actually get much of the calcium.
Seems to make a lot more sense to just sprinkle the ground egg shells into food, or your choice of fruit juice if you'd prefer to dissolve. I've never tried it, but I'd imagine it'd be quite good with pineapple juice as the calcium carbonate would make it less acidic.
