Hey Noah,

I recently got back from a Euro trip and didn’t bring many supplements with me—just some taurine and black ginger for a bit of extra energy. But after I got back, I noticed this kind of “meh,” numb feeling toward things that usually excite me, like music or food. I checked in with Geekbot about taurine use, since I might’ve overdone it, and the response was: *“It’s highly beneficial but can flatten neurotransmitters when overused.”*

Do you agree with that? Could taurine cause the kind of symptoms I’ve been feeling after my trip?

Should we be concerned with cold feet at night? Temperature in the house is kept at 73-74. What would you suggest to see an improvement?

If your parents were overweight and your dad was on quite a few medications and you wanted to support them in the weight loss journey and improving their overall health and well-being to reduce aging and increase longevity, what would your parent protocol be?

Hi Noah, I’ve recently started the protocol and I feel pretty good except I am getting some pretty bad headaches in the later part of the day, any suggestions on how to fix this and why it might be happening?

How would you approach fixing the issue of a lean, active male (40s) with genetically high GCKR activity, showing prediabetic trends on CGM - fast glucose spikes with any carbs, but quick return to (elevated) baseline? Likely due to suppressed hepatic glucokinase and poor liver glucose clearance.

AgencyBot suggests a high-protein, high-fat, low-carb reset with fasted AM movement, increased resistance training, and liver/mitochondrial support (taurine, choline, ALA, magnesium), with the goal of rebuilding metabolic flexibility and slowly reintroducing carbs in a circadian-aligned Phase 2 once blood sugar normalizes.

Does this check out?

What is your opinion on aspirin? I see some people taking it daily for anti inflammation.

I want to ask how did you fixed your PSSD and PFS issues, like what supplements or medication/TRT/injectable DHT helped. I restored my levels after using 5ar inhibitors but still conversion Testosterone/DHT is weak, not like 10:1 at least.....things like Bulgarian Tribulus helped little bit, other things like even Butea no effect

I have a friend who suffers from bipolar disorder. I want to help her find an alternative to the dozen medication she's taken. Anything you can recommend would help?

Best times to consume butea superba and pine pollen? Wasn’t sure if it was better pre or post workout

Expand full comment
Noah Ryan's avatar

Pre-workout 3 days a week. Same with pine pollen (take only half doses of pine pollen sublingually.

I personally like butea for when I have things I need to "chad ram" my way through. For times I need extra confidence, collectedness, linear thought, drive, and overall chad ramming energy. You feel me?

Hey Noah. What would be a alcohol protocol, for when going out at night and also if you are going to be drinking for the whole day where you have to eat. What’s the best diet and what would be best to drink? :)

Search Alcohol on his Twitter but I’m pretty sure it’s colostrum, NAC and L-theanine 30 mins before drinking to protect gut/liver and increase effects of alcohol so you need to drink less

I ain’t noah but I personally like to do electrolytes and b complex before going out as alcohol drains those. And then I try to stick to high % drinks like tequila, vodka etc. I stay away from beers (unless it’s corona) and sugary drinks as those are the worse. Day after, sunlight and light movement.

Have you tried creating a cloudbuster to eliminate electromagnetic radiation from the area, or creating radiation-absorbing artifacts using quartz, aluminum, and epoxy resin (I don't remember the name), and what do you think about drinking pine leaf tea to eliminate heavy metal contamination from the body?

Any things to keep in mind when taking a zeolite? (How to maximize its efficacy, should you take it with an enzyme for biofilms, dosage to start off)

Thank you for answering these questions bro. It really means a lot to everyone that comments. May God bless you.

Appreciate the kind words.

Zeolite is a blunt-force, non-specific chelator. Its going to bind good stuff (minerals/nutrients) just as easily as bad stuff (toxins/heavy metals)

Zeolite will bind positively charged ions (calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc). You must replenish these via diet

It can also mobilize and redistribute toxins, causing even worse damage

So IF you're going to use it:

- Take away from food/supplementation

- Start low (500mg) on an empty stomach in AM and cycle

- Remineralize with electrolytes, magnesium, and potentially zinc (trace minerals too)

- Support Phase 1/2 Detox with NAC, milk thistle, maybe artichoke extract (NAC will help break down biofilms)

- Drink Lots of water

- Rotate zeolite with activated charcoal

- Make sure you're having consistent bowel movement

My main issue is calibrating how much fruit to eat in the morning. I've done a LOT of fasting in the past and coming off of carnivore and IF it's hard to interpret the signals my body is giving. Do I have more fruit if I start to feel just a little hungry? Because it's easy to ignore small hunger pangs after all that fasting. But my main goal is to upregulate mitochondria and metabolism. So how do I know if I'm feeling good because I'm efficiently burning through sugar and nutrients or if I've already switched over to being too fasted and now I'm getting a high off of stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol? I don't want to just feel good RIGHT NOW but actually be increasing vitality

Starting slow is better than starting fast. So lean into that recalibration. Try and really feel what your body is craving. Some days its 3 cups of fruit juice with sparkling water, other days its just a pear and some melon. Other days its a whole crate of mangos.

Anything is better than nothing. Too little is better than too much.

I can't tell you how much to consume because that will change daily. Ease into it. Leverage the supplements to help with any glucose "overflow"
