You should not take B complex or additional stuff. they are trying to slow you down))

I guess i can take malic acid? I need it for the liver flush because i am not allowed to drink lots of apple juice.

And you dont think the high intake of minerals through ARL Supps are not resbonsible for my symptoms?
ALL IN ALL I GET MINERALS AND VITAMNS FROM THE SUPPS PER DAY:
  • Magnesium 1005 mg
  • Selenium 150 mcg
  • Copper 8,25 mg
  • Potassium 37,5 mg
  • Zinc 63 mg
  • Manganese 30 mg
  • Calcium 750 mg
  • Boron 1500 mcg
  • D3 700 IU
  • B1 30 mg
  • B6 60 mg
  • C 1600 mg
  • A 14500 IU

--> the little bit of morning wood i sometimes get completely dissapeared
--> ZERO libido
--> ZERO erections
The limcomin does this to me as well; in my case I believe it's the zinc. Still struggling with the sexual sides after 1mo of the supps, but I do have maybe 2 days randomly throughout the week where sexual sides are a bit better. Might be a necessary short-term sacrifice to balance the metabolism.

I'm doing the malic acid right now with ARL. It seems to give me libido still which is a plus. Bone broth too gives me libido. Yesterday I did a full day bone broth fast and I had best libido of this trek.

I stopped ARL pills during fast obviously and am bringing them back for my last meal tonight (3rd meal post 36 hour fast).

Shit 1 month and no improvements with the sexual sides? This gonna be a hard pill to swallow for me and especially my girlfriend...i hope she got patience...

I am praying every night before bed that i now have to go through hell to get cured in the future....

Did the libido last after the fast or did it disapear?

UPDATE:

I am running the programm one week so far..

IMPROVEMENTS:
- I feel less tired after a meal
- I feel less cold after a meal


WORSENING:
- PSSD-Symptoms are kicking my ass because of that programm
--> numb genitals gets worse
--> sharp pain in the area of my genitals gets worse
--> the little bit of morning wood i sometimes get completely dissapeared
--> ZERO libido
--> ZERO erections


- in the first days my gallbladder/gallstone hurt (maybe because of the higher fat intake) but its getting a bit better i think

THE NEXT STEPS
- i am preparing liver flush for the next weeks
- i get Jarrow Formulas Bile Acid Factors according to
@gbolduev to get rid of my gallstones and support disgestion

@TubZy @gbolduev
what do you think causes my worsening? Are the minerals/Vitamins i take too high (Copper, Zinc, Vit. A)? Or is my disgestion in general fucked up and the supps aren't working because of that?

That is normal for you to feel worse. Although I'm not sure I would take an additional b complex on top of it as the ARL supplements are in a proper ratio and that could throw it off

Yeah, still worse-off sexually than before ARL. But mentally and mood-wise I feel better than ever some days. Luckily I can still perform a few times a week with tadalafil, but libido generally is barely there.

SHORT UPDATE:

I went on a short trip for the last 4 days and i forgot to take my supps with me.

During these days my sex drive and libido increased. I got a few spontaneous erection and solid boners.

Nevertheless i will continue taking the supps. I think after 1-2 month of taking supps you will see success (maybe even recovery) first when u didn t take the supps anymore. Its just a guess (or rather hope) but after one week of supp and a short break i saw some improvements. This is pretty motivating for me even though i know at first the supps will worsen it again...

Yup, I noticed the same thing except when I take them the night before, I skip breakfast and the following day and fast and during that time I feel very good. You are forcing to slow yourself down by taking ARL that is why you feel worse.

SHORT UPDATE:

A month ago i canceld the ARL program (DIET + SUPPS) because of my gallstone i couldn't handle the high fat diet. My plan was/is first to get rid of the gallstone with liver flushes and start ARL again. So here are my experiences:

I prepared for my first flush with malic acid. This stuff gave me a little boost on my sex drive and libido. The flush itself was a success i guess. Many small green and yellow stones came out.

The following days and weeks after my first flush i got huge improvements with my libido. I even could have enjoyable sex with my gf. Damn i really felt alive this time.

Because i still felt some pain in my gallbladder i prepared for the next flush. Again "success". Many green stones and even big stones came out. But after a few day i still felt pain again but i think its now in the gall duct.

The sad thing since the second flush my libido went down to zero again. I couldn't hold an erection while having sex the last days..

I hope/think the reason is that the gall duct is congested and my fat disgetion has rapidly decreased..

I going to prepare now for my third flush and hope i gain the libido improvements again.

Jeezz this is so frustrating..

Cholestasis is defined as a decrease in bile flow due to impaired secretion by hepatocytes or to obstruction of bile flow through intra-or extrahepatic bile ducts. Therefore, the clinical definition of cholestasis is any condition in which substances normally excreted into bile are retained.

Here are the things that could help on top of doing the liver flushes every two weeks
1) High dose Thiamine HCl (B1), kickstart pentose pathway to produce NADPH, necessary part of stomach acid production. Extra folate, Bs, MgCl, KCl required with this.
2) TUDCA
3) Jarrow bile acids

Or and make sure you are using 1gram malic acid daily, it appears to increase NADPH via the Krebs cycle

UPDATE:

Hello everybody. I changed a lot of things since my last update and i got HUGE improvements with my sexual problems.

So here is a overview what i changed:
- I took 4 days once per day 25 mg sildenafil (a member on the pssd forum got baseline improvements but he took it longer)
- After my third liverflush i tolerate more fatty foods so i went on a "light" version of my ARL diet (no gallbladder attacks anymore)
- I started to take Vitamin B Complex once a day and the ARL supps but only once a day not three times --> AND I DIDN'T CRASHED

Well, i think the major improvement came from sildenafil. After the 4 days my baseline was up to 80-90 %. I got strong boners, increased sexual drive, i got morning wood and random boners. And the veins on my dick are now much more visible. Jezz i saw some of them for the first time after years.

So after this a took a break from sildenafil for about one week. And the baseline was still up to 80 %. Nothing faded away.

At the moment i take 25 mg sildenafil once a week. The reason is psychological and thats something a have to work about it. Because i am scared that my improvements go away in this moment when i stop taking this stuff.

My thoughts on my results:
I think my PSSD disappeared in the past but my dick was still fucked up because many of my veins wheren't there anymore and it seemed he is going to shrink. I think when u have ZERO morning wood and random erection for YEARS you NEED a kickstarter like sildenafil to "activate your dick again". This is what happened to me. I really don't know if this makes sense to you. AND i really don't know if my improvements persist or not. But its an amazing situation and i hope i am recovered....

Short info:

I ordered TraceElements now.

Because of the last discussions in this forum i also made some (fucking expensive) bloodtests:

- Vitamin B 1 & 2
- Prolactin
- Cortisol
- Progesterone
- Testosterone
- DHT
- Serotonin
- Estrogen

So maybe i can contribute something to make a better picture of a PSSD treatment.

I have some money left. If there is anything interesting for you @Jaxx @Helen @barbaar @talkingant feel free to tell me.

The bloodtests will come next week. The Hairtest will take some weeks.

Blood & urine amino acids could be helpful. Pretty expensive too though.

Well here are my results:

DHT and Progesterone seems pretty low.

The rest is in range. Maybe there is some problem with Ratios. But i am pretty clueless about that..

@Helen @Jaxx @barbaar @talkingant what do you think guys?

Bit surprising to see progesterone within range. Did you ever have windows, and by taking what?

he is a fast oxidizer. Most other guys I saw with PSSD were extremely slow ones
