Is it optimal to do some sort of detox during the phamine and if so, can you recommend a good method? I've done several cleanses in the past and never really get much out of them. I just feel like my liver and entire internal organs could use a good bath!!! Walker, I’ve posted about this several di...

Forewarning kellyann...FWIW: My posts typically are not out in the main stream… in here or anywhere else… ie others will have to plug BIU...

Without knowing the details I can only guess two things ( but they are two things I would bet on … ) 1) they all did WAY WAY too much and 2) most likely, in those cases individual tolerance to one or more of the ingredients was very low.

Training days, it's 5/5/5 pre, halfway through and 5 immediately post. Then, Eat Up! . Hey Rob, I take it all up front mostly because I forget to take pills in the middle or end… I will drink intra work though.

I always try to last eat at least 2 1/2 hrs before before the work so the MPS is going in to at least an emptying stomac...

mo curc powers

Discussion … more curc powers… no intention of diminishing the thrust of the op link - but for a long time now, I’ve chosen to avoid and/or remove those particular fluoride compounds from water, foods and products and provide plenty of iodines ( rather than use up ‘curc-powers’ to mitigate the ravag...

Rob, Yep, looks like they are building up (for) a product that isn’t even readily available yet. My thoughts re HMB. > It has a very high variance in ‘responding’ across the bb population. > It should never be used for muscle ‘building’ purposes. Rather any utility it has per individual should be ta...
