    Nicotine Supplementation

    Does anyone have any experience or thoughts on Nicotine supplementation? Im interested in it to see if it helps with creative activities. I find it hard to just sit down and draw these days. My eyes are on this product because apparently its only 1.25mg nicotine per drop...

    Cant get magnesium levels up

    I just heard Topical magnesium chloride spray in water doesn't get past the skin barrier very well? Is this true? Should I put the crystals in a pill and take it orally instead?

    Post-concussion, TBI

    Thanks, but I'm guessing I wont be able to find out if I'm naturally a fast or slow oxidizer if I'm supplementing with thyroid. Is that one of the most important things to find out?

    Post-concussion, TBI

    Thyroid, Reverse T3 & PFS

    Temperatures can also drop after eating a meal, and I have heard it can mean the same thing. Do you take that dose all at once, once a day? JonnyCraig mentioned a dosage warning above, but I'm not too sure. I have also heard, when you first start thyroid, your supposed to start slow, and...
