Feeling great after 6 months.

What specifically did you notice from the zinc and manganese? Did you feel like crap first and then better?

Late in the 6 months, like month 5 the back pain went away. It was worse at that point than ever before, was very discouraged.
Was taking some individual aminos and stopped at that point. Aspartic/Serine
Now back to working out 2x/week, good reco ery.
Sleep improved.
Digestion is very good.
Energy levels good 1st thing in morning, feel rested. Tired at night.
Morning/night wood back to consistent levels.
Body is warm in winter.
Overall changes from week to week since beginning the regime.

Just wanted to be sure no bad interactions.
Zinc&mang together. Moly alone.
I wake up at night anyways a few times, so easy for me.

Any reason for doing this on empty stomach? Also should moly be taken away from Zn/Mn, do they interfere?

Orion, he took all this based on his test. I think you have a different hairtest

Now Im taking 15zinc/10mang/1mg copper with the ghk, every couple days.

Thank you for the details! I'm excited to give this a shot since you have similar hair test results. I had a few more questions whenever you are able...

1. Was this a process of getting worse before you felt better; or just slowly getting better? I'm interested since I have to complete this school semester I may wait until school finishes if this will take me to a worse place before getting better, I'm fine going there just want to make sure I pass classes before that (for example many have mentioned initially felling way worse on zinc due to copper coming out into blood or something, etc).

2. I can't exercise like I used to, muscles don't pump, no cardio - heart rate doesn't elevate like it used during workout, just beats weakly, i don't feel rested when I sleep, my skin has lost sensitivity over my whole body, it's lifeless and dehydrated. These are my core issues - pretty life altering. Did you have any these issues? I'm interested in what specific way these issues improved if you had them?

3. Can you talk specifically more about your sleep and how it improved ? (it's as though I lose consciousness but don't get the rested feeling in the morning, and I only sleep 5 or 6 hours and it is disrupted with many awakenings; and most importantly when I transition to and from sleep there isn't much of that groggy feeling, which helped you really feel asleep. I'm instantly awake when I regain consciousness.)

4. Earlier in your log you mentioned taking resveratrol for one week during a month. How many months did you do this for, just the first month or throughout? Was it helpful?

5. You mentioned Cysteine above too, how long did you take that? Did that help?

6. Did you base your supplement mineral ratios on the Hair test recommendations; did you buy any of their supplements?

7. Finally, Do you still take everything you outlined (HCL, electrolytes, etc.)) or just the last bit you posted (15 zinc/10mang/1mg copper with ghk every few days)?


Thanks in advance, sorry for so many questions

Hey @Raincoast , I see that you had the recommendations from ARL. But, just to understand, did you take any of what they advise you during your recovering period?

Yes to most, added a few other things omitted the glandulars....Basically followed gbolduevs 4 lows reccomendations. But it seemed to be the aminos with hcl, then the electrolytes that have had the most impact.
