Fighting….

[zancek0]

I really don’t know. Malate speeds me up too much.

I use carbonate and citrate. The oyster shell calcium is a carbonate in Amazon and really cheap .

Cool, just wanted to ask.
In traditional chinese medicine they often give people with anxiety calcium carbonate in different forms (like pearls, oyster, dragon bone etc)

Wow. Calcium is basically the reason why people who do mineral balancing have success. It really is calcium therapy at its core.

This is why I got so sick in 2020. I worked with an idiot lady who put me on every single nutrient BUT calcium. I hate that woman to this day.

 

[bruschi11]

I’m basically running freddds protocol with testosterone suspension 5-10mg 2x daily as my form of TRT.

We need testo/ dht for tyrosine for iodine utilization to make t4. Estrogen for d receptor calcium absorption which is needed for fad / b12 usage so the body can use selenium to convert t4 to t3.

T and E have to be in decent place no questions asked.

I might be too late here and it fucking sucks.

It took until yesterday my second day of doing this when I gave 50mcg of iodine, my whole system really woke up.

Brain mri the other day showed the thalamus completely shrunken now next to the hippocampus (which actually grew from 5 to 7% of avg person in last year.) Thalamus was always between 25 and 50-60%. It’s now 7%.

It seems when methylation and active b6 were working, the thalamus would grow back in years past. These times include both a recovery and a time period where I was controlling things with nutrients quite well.

I am hoping I’m not too late here. I really hope I can get metabolism working to control fluoride which allows copper to go back online .

Shawn bean and I agree the low co2 in blood work was calcium absorption issues due to low T/E.

Strongly considering the oral prescription testosterone on the market. Worried about it converting to dht too hard and not enough E so might run that with suspension long term.

Do you feel better on this?

Yeah bro i hear u...
im gonna... reread parts of your log.
maybe im off for a few days... not sure. but i will refresh my memory on your current sitn.
man please never fk w ozone nor hydrogen water or anything like that agn bro.

ill ask my brother.
maybe ill email our neurosurgeon friend actually.

just for info, ive known the latter like 22 yrs. my bro's best frd. brilliant as fuck.

but let me know if u want ... what q's to ask him.

 

[MNK99]

Like ArL/ tei people with egos who have no idea that the calcium they’re giving is helping b12 usage and folate recycling. The zinc is activating b6 moving homocysteine to cysteine.

They wanna talk “it raises your sodium it lower your potassium”. Sure that’s important stuff...
But if you really wanna fix a person you fix methylation. And yes mineral balancing does that. But many need to go beyond the minerals to look at aminos and what influences the aminos needed to make methylation run.

Agreed bro.

YOU KNOW a lot about this...
so is a slow 1, with my issues a hypermethylater for some aminos.. and an undermethylater?
Or i mean genes that are methylated.. isn't it genes? Ill relearn this with grok ai paid man. bc i was actually in bioscience but i was a kid then.

and different for a fast 1?

And like.. my methylation issues make b12 fine for me and b1 but maybe b6 alone hurts me and zn. but that is common.

MCAS i must have had as a kid..
anaphylactic shock w/ certain nuts cashews pistachios...

and i had POTS for sure at times. OR a different type of tachycardia maybe called STS (I know because of EDS people/ communities).

I’d talk to him about brain regions and what they need etc.

I think thalamus needs co2? I dunno. Biotin b2 b12 b5 brought it back in 2023.

Hippocampus needs fluoride being cleared and copper utilization.

I’m still in tough spot.

Decided to make my hormone therapy 4-andro and epiandrosterone.

They just make sense. All the PFS guys who it helped. My friend too who was in bad spot for long time and is recovered now.

I think it allows copper to come up gently. Allow calcium absorption. Estrogen comes up gently too so oxidation isn’t too hard.

Need active b6 (zinc and copper utilization). for oxidation. I feel calcium absorption biggest piece to that (estrogen). But everything needs to be built around that so the body can run.

Romeo Mariano says the most important thing in body is estrogen.

Ray Peat says estrogen is the worst.

I think if I can heal, my conclusion will be that estrogen is needed for oxidation. But we need methylation in place for said oxidation

 

[RebelWithACause]

estrogen just is lol, how can it be bad when it exists in the human body (and other animals, plants) for a reason. But most important thing? Why? Wtf is that statement. Same people who say "TESTOSTERONE = most important". Like they are looking for the shiny object lol

BTW not saying this to you. Saying it to Ray Peat and Romeo Mariano.

Probably because a lot of people have estrogen issues now it's focussed on more.

I think it’s about calcium absorption. Where e2 hits d receptor.

I used way too much 4 andro I think. I did like 6 pumps over 3 days. Really really bad here 2 days since last pump.

But I was dying before trying testo 10 days ago.

I’m taking a few days off hormones probably will go back on the 4 andro maybe epiandro on Thursday or Friday.

It feels like I’m way tooo late to save my brain this time. It’s so fucking wrong

What does a bad day feel like for you? Just curious. For me extreme fatigue mostly

Wow I know Taube. I just messsged her.

My calcium issues are pretty severe it seems. Strontium rising in hair says it all.

But it’s more about absorption and I think we need to raise estrogen for d receptor to work to have any chance of absorbing calcium m.

I’m doing horrible. It’s been 2.5 days since my last dose of the prohormone and just getting worse. Extreme electrolyte depletion.

The way I’m seeing things is we need calcium absorption to make b2 work. It raises iodine utilization by recycling tyrosine. And selenium utilization by raising phosphorus for fad.

I guess PTH comes before thyroid.

This is why you just can’t fast like crazy. It’s a calcium killer.

It’s likely I ended this life with all the things I did between 2018 but more specifically 2019/2020.

Too much fasting. My last water fast was 9 days in late 2020. I killed the Cyanobacteria infection no more herx after, the stuff wasn’t in stool test anymore. But after that I was fucking toast. I kept getting weaker the next 2-3 months until a ton of calcium went into my body.

I kept feeding calcium that year but it didn’t do much after the first month or two. Until I got on vitamin b2 with zinc and calcium and zinc calcium were strong. My strontium finally got fixed after b2 zinc calcium but I was in midst of tons of brain damage .

I didn’t recover until that next year- electric convulsive therapy, pc IVs , melatonin all were big next to taking calcium zinc.

But I think fixing b2 originally is what let me start absorbing calcium well. I mean I’m sure of it.

This is why I need the hormonal support. So I can use my iodine and selenium for b2 activation.

No more coffee enemas. Nothing but rest. I have a job I choose when I wanna work. So yea… I’m not working for a bit.

Shaking in agony in bed non stop torture. This isn’t cfs like I used to have. I have a neurodegenerative disease now. It’s night and day from when I was normal cfs.

 

[bruschi11]

Fucked up. But I scanned and finally seeing fluoride dropping, selenium and E both being used (dropping).

Sodium dropping too tho. Something I never really see, gonna start foot baths with sea water again .

I think I inflated my entire hormonal system just too much for days there and I really gotta just chill and give electrolytes sea water food. A little keto.

I really feel 4 andro+ epi andro are the two hormones that make the most sense to achieve what I want to achieve. But so much time has passed. So much failure. So much Brain shinkage.

I’m seeing what I wanna do here but the too late thing is all over my mind

Crazy man. I hope you'll find your problem soon. Don't think it's too late mate. The body is a machine, once it gets going it gets going again. I was stuck for a long time with horrible symptoms depression (this was way after PFS so nothing to do with that) and then added specific nutrients/vitamins/minerals and changed diet (very important too) and boom I was online within a week. From non functional to normal again. And had similar smaller crashes like that.

BTW I'm still here too. There's more people here been fighting for a long time to get better and most here still deal with issues. It is what it is. For me I made it my mission to get better and ignore the rest. Whether that will make me end up in a bad spot in life so be it I never want to experience what I experienced back then. I guess that was why I was put on this earth lol. To fix myself to the fullest.

I am now doing very well at this moment. Feeling best I have. Who knows what happens in the future but I feel good. And I had months of bad stuff too. So I believe anybody can do better within a week or a month. It's a full 180 sometimes.

Thanks bro I 100% agree with you. Body is a machine that needs to just be turned on correctly.

I’m in midst of a pretty big finding. Will post soon.

Hey there,

I'm curious if anyone here is familiar with Dr. Revici's work, the diphasic model: Anaerobic/Dysaerobic imbalance ?
To me it seems similar to the oxidation type model by Dr. Eck.

Here is a basic article on it, these tables are from there:

Everything I do is Revici cuz Revici treated through the periodic table.

 

[bruschi11]

Epiandrosterone inhibits Pentose pathway. Which allows glucose to move towards pyruvate and acetyl coenzyme A so we can fuel the Krebs cycle and make co2 and ATP.

The problem in PFS and Parkinson’s (same thing) is that glucose moves towards the Pentose pathway due to the low Epi (5AR opens up path to Epi).

Insulin steals glucose for Pentose pathway hence why manganese toxicity causes Parkinson’s as Mn raises insulin. This is why fasting and keto help those with PFS as we lower insulin this way.

Attached is diagram.

I might be too late but this is what PFS and Parkinson’s are.

 

[bruschi11]

Without epiandrosterone we can’t get to acetyl CoA with our glucose (as it slides down Pentose pathway). Acetyl coa which is needed for bh4 pathway/ b5 for tyrosine is needed for iodine utilization.

Without iodine usage all of hormones go down without t4. Iodine utilization is the key to VHL needed for vitamin A metabolism to make copper available from liver.

There is so much more to this.

But nadph dying due to poor iodine and b12 usage allows fluoride to accumulate in tissues as hydrogen (nadph) opposes fluoride.

The fluoride causes the pineal gland to lose ability to transport copper so without that we can’t make melatonin and without melatonin the hippocampus shrinks.

Everything is sooooooo obvious now.

My head is soooo shrunken. I really don’t know if I can get out of this. But I’m accurate.

Using both 4 andro and epiandrosteone.

Epi seems more important. But 4 andro can be used more often without issues.

4 andro is more selenium utilization if given with b12. Epiandro is more iodine utilization
