ACTIVITIES (aim: 40% energy) ➔ ACHE: Despite the deep long sleep and being a bit zombified for a few minutes I could wak up very well, inside of a 15’ ➔ 80%/2 , however going doing 10’ moving things around, 15’ shopping and 15’ talking in the morning was too much, panting, and hard to get up the stairs ➔ 80%/4
, but with lots of rest ➔ 80%/2
, then in the afternoon throwing away glass 5’, getting grass 10’ and shopping 10’ similarly ➔ 80%/4
, but mentally fit all the time and able to recover fairly quickly, so worth it.

. No chance of anything hurting, back much better now.

Supps Sep 20th (34 supps): Supp costs:~389€/m (Sep 20th) B3-flush taken at 15:30: 16:05- CHANGED: I don't think eleuthero or alpha GPC are helping energy as much as glutathion. Myo-inositol seemed to lengthen & deepen sleep stints, I don't think apigenin or threonate did anything (I'm suspicious of the products however). Eleuthero, apigenin, and myo-inositol. Started threonate before the 21st, no difference to sleep. Glutathione diuretic when I take it, not when I don't, starts within an hour, so maybe decreasing the dose. Surprisingly increased energy after first(?) glutathione 19th at 3, so from 20th on at 9 and 3. Started flushing B3 from 17th, increasing without problems, probably 3x250mg/d by the 22nd, OK 23rd or 24th, additional to continuing flush-free, which may be helping increase this time. 4 Quercetin from 14th on. B2 from 10th, remember to halve from 24th. Started fisetin and olive leaf extract (Berg) low on 8th, full 750mg capsules by the 15th. 1x150mg alpha GPC from Sep 5th, more when safe. B3 2x from Aug 31st (then check homocystein). Pure ATP 400mg in liquid was bad, so at most I may encapsulate & start with less, 100mg. Copper doesn't seem necessary if my cardio interpreted my bloods right. New idea: Creatine. PLANNED/TAKEN TODAY: click for details:
