SteveD>>>>>I'm amazed that you can ingest that much wheat grass. When I drink just 4 oz., it gives me nausea. I'm thinkingthat might be a detox reaction, but whatever it is, it's hard to stomach. Have you had that problem with it? Oris there some way to remedy that, so the nausea is less intense?The nausea goes away, but the nasty taste stays forever...reminds me of burnt motor oil...I try to remember the scene from Rocky I where he's drinking those raw eggs...>>>Also, with raw foods... I can eat so much raw food in summer and it seems to make me feel better (though I do eatmeat as well in small "medicinal" doses). But in winter when it's cold out, I can't do it. I am cold all the time, evenwhile eating hot soups. How do the living foods people deal with that? Do they all live in hot climates? Or just settheir thermostat to 80 degrees. []

QuoteBut, John! Now you're gonna keep us all in suspense about your new theory? It's not fair!!!!!!Ok Demo, as you wish. But my theory isn't new, and peanut butter might even help. I am thinking thyroid. A couple of weeks ago my double vision came back on me. Double vision can be a symptom of hyperthyroidism. I always thought that if I had this malady I would have more of the listed symptoms, but maybe not: http://www.ispub.com/ostia/index.php?xmlFilePath=journals/ijfp/vol4n2/diplopia.xml I realized that at the time this returned I had been away from home and had changed my diet. And when I returned home I was trying new foods as well. Why would this matter? Because my typical evening meal was broccoli/cauliflower/carrot + potato + soybeans. Soy, broccoli and cauliflower are all goitrogenic. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goitrogen And as it happens, my typical lunch includes a PB&J sandwich, and peanut butter is on the list as well. So, what I unknowingly had was a diet well tailored to reducing somewhat the effects of an overactive thyroid. Could this explain my recent success post NE (rather than or in addition to garlic)? Well I had an NE yesterday morning and I definitely felt I was affected, although I have a cold making it harder to distinguish. Last night I loaded up on my typical goitrogenic supper and today I seem better already. If I am right a couple of intense weeks of this diet and my eyes might get better. I am going to try to get some blood work done and if I am able to I will abandon this diet for a duration beforehand to try to prove the point. TSH plus freeT4 and freeT3 seem to be the tests to ask for. Girlwind, I believe you are hypo? Do you find that you are sensitive to such foods?

I have to add an update to my precedent post when I say "It seems to be safe", it's not sure at all. Girlwind, do you think it would be wise to take the same ingredients (after a review) from an other source we can trust, since your experience is a very old one, maybe it's not the same product now.
If you want to "create the same formula" as is in Alpha 20C, then the Sun Ten Labs/Brion Herbs herbs are the absolute cleanesttoxin-free Chinese herbs that you can possibly get. They actually won a Prop 65 lawsuit! And that is BIG proof.
Demo is right that it's not a good thing to find the ingredients only on ebay...
One bottle is called Alpha 20C, dietary supplement, herbal concentrate, and has:Nandina flower (Chinese white flower)paris polyphylla (Paris herb) rootscutellaria balcalensis (scutellaria herb)rootdandelion rootimperata root
My grandma gave me some immune system type (all natural) pills called Alpha 20C, from Sunrider. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if these ingredients sound OK for dogs?- Chinese White Flower- Paris Herb- Scutellaria Herb- Dandelion Root- Imperate Root

And that is BIG proof.Girlwind, do you know if Sun Ten Labs/Brion Herbs makes a specific product whose combination of herbs is similar to that of Sunrider's Alpha 20C?
It would be helpful to find out if any of these ingredients are traditionally used for treating symptoms/imbalances similar to POIS...
John, maybe that's what it takes to be completely sexually abstinent, even if it will aggravate a rare episode of pois. Soya is rich in phytoestrogens. In a book I read that estrogens are helpful to avoid the urge for sex. About cauliflower I noticed that it's increasing a lot the duration of my morning erections. maybe this is an explanation :Eat Cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and brussel sprouts. These contain Indole 3 Carbinol which increases the conversion of estradiol to “weaker” (2OHE) estrogen. Broccoli also contains quercetin which is beneficial for chronic prostatitis. All this is very confusing with the thyroid theory, maybe the solution is to avoid always eating the same foods everyday.
I did not expect such a quick respondwhat should i respond other than gratitude
Steve, I am not perfect at anything, chastity included, but I generally do well by avoiding what would lead my mind to "go there". As a single man I keep my eyes off web sites/television shows/etc that would even minimally instill lust. I find my greatest challenge comes when my sleep gets thrown off. I have had chronic insomnia for many years but it is much better than it used to be. I continue to wake early in the morning but I usually get sufficient sleep these days. But if I was to drink even a small amount of alcohol it would mess my sleep up for a number of days, and it's that type of situation in which lust comes to me, for whatever reason.
Also since Fenugreek is supposed to increase cortisol and Relora decreases, perhaps either Relora or Fenugreek are the solution for the brain fog and mental problems. It's only a matter of whether your body increases or decreases cortisol after orgasm.
Fenugreek decreases glycemia, increase cortsiol (supposed), decrease inflammation .
Fenugreek, a slender annual herb of the pea family, may decrease cortisol production in the body when it is too high
