I recall reading somewhere (maybe earlier in this thread) that most commercially available food grade GMS is actually a 50-50 mixture of glycerol monostearate with glycerol monopalmitate.  Am I remembering this correctly?  If so, palmitic acid is potentially harmful, so it would be useful to track down a supply of "pure" food grade GMS.  Do we know if such a thing exists?

 

Edit: I did a quick search and found 2 places that claim to have 99-100% pure GMS.

Of course, they could be lying, or it could be more common to make pure GMS than I thought.

Stearic acid works well for 97% of the body. But as the other 3% is the brain--due to blocking by the BBB--I recommend using dihydromyricetin (DHM) instead, 1 g. 

[kurt9]

So GMS is not necessary at all if you use DHM?

 

I've been using the DHM tablets that come in 1 g for this and the mitochondrial protocol.

[Empiricus]

Hearing that as little as one gram of DHM could do the trick is good news.

Any opinions about this patent ?

I was wondering if anybody has an insight as to which supplement present in the latest Turnbuckle protocol (fusion day only) has a potential to cause diarrhea?

[kurt9]

I've had the same problem. I think it one of the powders.

[njurkovi]

Yep, I figured that, but which one :-)

 

Pretty sure it is not AAKG because that is taken on fission days too. I am assuming AKG is not the cuprit either.

So that leaves

DHM

GSM

Glutathione

Lechitin

 

I guess when I am not on the protocol, I will try each one on a separate day and see what happens

[njurkovi]

A very quick search results:

Diarrhea syndrome was found to decrease markedly after glutathione administration in a dose of 1 g/kg
 lechitin It can cause some side effects including diarrhea,
  DHM alleviated loss of weight, diarrhea, and damage of colon structure in colitis mice
  Some side effects of GMS may include headaches, dizziness, bloating, nausea, thirst and diarrhea.

 

so lechitin or GMS ?

My bet is lechitin, because dosage is way more than generally suggested (as opposed to GMS)

Will decrease and report.

I’ve had a slight fever a half dozen or more times after the dose of c60 on the first day. It ranges anywhere from barely measurable op to 100.4 degrees C. Onset is 5-9 hours after taking the C60 and it subsided within 7-12 hours. It’s happened with different batches of brownies and different bottles of C60. It’s strange.

I had the same problem. I decreased sunflower lecithin to one gel cap/ 600 mg, which I tolerated well and didn’t cause me any G.I. distress.

[njurkovi]

Yes, it was definitely lecithin. I reduced my dosage to about 1800 (also switched from powder to pills) and the problems went away.

I guess, I was taking way too much to start with
