    ATTN: D&S Jedi Council.

    Very kind words KK. I'd love to come back to posting, just very busy with school now and trying to train a few times a week in BJJ. I did lurk recently and a few things said irked me, so there is a chance I'll come back in the next month or two when things settle down to discuss a few...

    Is Caffeine A Diuretic

    Wow. Great find MM. Within 4 minutes. I wonder what in it does that, since I personally don't get the same effect form a monster or something. So I assume its not the caffeine.

    Ephedrine: Yes or no?

    I'm not sure about all stimulants, but for some KK is right. For example, it can be absorbed faster, so you get a higher peak blood concentration and therefore "feel" it more. But normally if you absorb something faster its gets eliminated faster and vice versa. If you take it with food you...

    New Beta Alanine Study

    The study says previously BA was shown to increase skeletal muscle carnosine levels. This increase in m-carn, because of its buffering capabilities, has been shown to also cause significant improvements in anaerobic and aerobic exercise performance. Some studies show that resistance...

    Is Caffeine A Diuretic

    I could be wrong, its been a while since I learned this crap. Agreed that for the most part caffeine is a smooth muscle constrictor. It decreases blood flow to the brain, to the gut etc... If its involved with the fight or flight part of the ANS, wouldn't it inhibit bladder and colon...

    Ephedrine: Yes or no?

    KK, is that because the absorption is higher on an empty stomach? Some stimulants don't peak as high when taken with food, but the total amount absorbed is the same (the area under the curve). Or is it for another reason?

    Eggs and cholesterol

    Ever hear about people who eat a ton of eggs getting allergic to them? I read somewhere a while ago, no clue the source, that a lot of pro bodybuilders who would do those crazy 20 egg white omelets every morning said that they can't eat egg whites anymore (I think it was just egg whites, I'm...

    So I tried to chew up and swallow fish oil pills..

    A poster previously mentioned he did this. He takes all 10 and puts them in a glass of water. He then waits some time (i have no clue how long) and he said they get soft, but don't break. But apparently they get soft enough he just drinks the whole thing. Genius for people who can't swallow...

    Suggestions for FAQ - D&S

    How about a section about where to get information and how to think critically? I think thats the best way to increase the forum as a whole. Something about how to search on pubmed, where not to get info, and maybe a quick how-to on reading abstracts or something. I've never used google...

    The Holy Grail

    Man. I gotta quit my job and start working for them. I could easily come up with great shit like that. Some sorta nano cryogenic somatic gene transfer anabolic kinetic insane lean muscle promoting powder.

    Sleeping Remedies

    Thats gotta be an estimate, right? Its gotta depend on the density and stuff of the powder. A tsp of creatine is 5 grams, but on my piracetam bottle it says that a tsp is 3.9 grams. Something fluffy like lecithin is 2.5g per tsp. For 5mg, fill a capsule and weigh it and make sure to...

    Sleeping Remedies

    What do you guys think of L-tryptophan? Its legal now, but quite expensive. Melatonin works great for me, 20-30 minutes after taking it I crash. If I stay awake during this "tired" period, it wears off. Also, if you get woken up around an hour after falling asleep you can be wide awake. So...

    Ephedrine: Yes or no?

    Haha, its all good. I just wanted to give my two cents. Also, want to recharge after a stressful time period, or a stint of heavy stimulant usage? Two things. First, take some time off and rest. Sleep a lot, take naps, do relaxing things. This will recharge you. Second, I just read an...

    Ephedrine: Yes or no?

    Two questions about this reset AD thing: Can the adrenal glands be overworked? Can this product help that? First, I am not sure if they can be overworked. You can have too much of a hormone floating around, such as cortisol, which can cause problems. But not having the adrenal glands...

    Luke Cummos "Milk"

    I have many issues with this show. First, he is so monotone its horrendous. Its like a movie they'd show in school in home ec. Second, he says healing, holistic, cleansing and all that stuff too much. Lastly, the whole time I'm watching and trying to pay attention, despite the previous...

    BSN Lawsuit

    Interesting. They seem to say that the CEM3 product doesn't even exist. And they are trying to get money to everyone who bought any of their products that claim to contain CEM3. Now is the time to take a gamble. If you read the lawsuit and think they have a case, start buying tubs of...

    Interesting Article on Applied Nutrigenomics

    Interesting find. The only thing is, I think he is being very optimistic, or overstating his findings a bit much. I could be wrong, but I think he has some of his statements backwards. Kinda like the PPARg gene, if you have a certain type of it fish oils won't give you the same benefits on...

    Submission grappling at the Olympics?

    At least with walking you can see who's in the lead and watch another guy from the rear pass him up. I used to wonder the exact same thing until I read in Sam Sheridan's book, A Fighters Heart, where he said that unless you do the sport, its impossible to watch and follow whats going on. Thats...

    Ephedrine: Yes or no?

    I cycle off only so I don't have to keep taking more. When I get a break I try to go as cold turkey as possible to expedite the process. I have zero motivation and am fine taking naps and watching TV all day. But its nice to go back to a regular schedule and actually feel the cup you have in...

    how to get urself motivated??

    Stop being a pussy. Just do it. I've never come back from a workout regretting it. I have not worked out and regretted it. There are no secrets or tricks, you just have to get up and get out the door. Its not like you don't have control. Also, listen to some music, watch a fighting tape...
