Low Dose Naltrexone
I just posted a new classroom course on LDN! I was going to keep it here, but it felt more appropriate in the course module. I'll likely be adding even more to it because there's really a ton of data that can be shared. I'll keep the carousel post here to reference though. Overall, the TLDR; The potential upside is high, and the downside is inconsequential. This alone makes it worth considering for those who deal with chronic pain or have an autoimmune condition like Hashimoto's. By no means is this a cure or a silver bullet, but mechanistically the theory is sound and grounded in evidence. Have you heard of LDN or Naltrexone at all?

Welcome to the log.
This is an ongoing log I will keep for my own progress and transparency. I'm leaving absolutely nothing out. Feel free to use this thread to ask specific questions related to the log itself or questions about what I'm doing. Please save any other non-log related questions for outside of this thread.

7/11/26 Four weeks post-show check-in AM fasted weight: 213.9 - boom there's the weight jump! - Training day: 250P 545C 70F ~3810kcal - Rest day: 250P 395C 70F ~ 3210kcal --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jumped up quite a bit in weight this past week. This is a bit much but with the lines I still have and because I didn't move much initially, I'll stay here. I dropped 1lbs after low day. Was sitting at 214lbs Tues & Weds, then after the low day Thurs, I dropped to 213 on Friday. Today woke up still just under 214. I also bought a new mattress and it was such a great investment! Holding here with food based on the weight gain. Performance is also increasing. I have a fullness that I haven't had in quite a while but that's also due to the increase in GH. - Supplements: AM: Nattokinase CoQ10 D3/K2 SEED probiotic Gorilla Mind Multi Gorilla Mind Smooth (focus, non-stim) Gorilla Mind Omegas Gorilla Mind Beef Liver Zinc picolinate (just ordered) - Pre workout: Gorilla Mind non-stim preworkout Gorilla Mind EAAs PM / Post-workout Gorilla Mind Calm - cortisol manager w/ phosphatidylserine (my fav supplement, ever) Gorilla Mind Creatine gummies - SO GOOD Glutatmine GI Integrity Magnesium Glycinate Melatonin - Peptides: Reta 0.5mg *stopped Reta Lantus: 10iu qd *added this* Rx: Tadalafil 2.5mg T3/T4 - 18/76qAM + 12.5mcg T3 midday Adderall PRN Telmisartan 40mg qhs Nebivolol (not currently taking) Ezetimibe 10mg qd Rosuvastatin 5mg TIW - PEDs oxandrolone 25mg daily Test Cyp: 750mg/week Mast E: 800mg/week Primo: 340mg/week Total mg: 2085 SLU- I have both a 20mg and a 100mg capsule.

7/18/26 AM fasted weight: 213.9 - Same weight as last week. I did see an increase to 215.8 but that was just a single day and likely influenced by eating late. My average weight for the week was 214.0 - Training day: 250P 545C 70F ~3810kcal - Rest day: 250P 395C 70F ~ 3210kcal --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am decreasing my GH to 6iu.

Part 2 - Detox phase series (Digestible version)
Here's the second carousel that comes along with the detox phases. Again, more to come in a bit of a deep dive in the classroom where we'll explore how caffeine can be a proxy for a fast or slow phase 1 detox, and specifically which enzyme is responsible for it. The takeaway here is that the default 'fix' is usually adding a glutathione injection, or taking NAC, NMN, NMR, without managing the foundations. Glutathione is used up in both phases because in some phase one cytochrome P450 complexes, glutathione is used. While we can synthesize glutathione endogenously via glycine, cysteine, and glutamic acid, there's still a finite amount. We use glutathione to detoxify many fat-soluble toxins and carcinogens making them water soluble. It circulates in the blood and grabs onto these chemicals and pulls them out of the blood into the liver, then to the gallbladder > gut > and then flushed down the toilet. All that to say, glutathione can be used up in phase 1 and not have an adequate amount for phase 2, which it's definitely needed in. Reduce the amount of toxins in and increase the necessary cofactors for phase 2. Sulfur foods are mentioned BUT- if you're someone that has sensitivities to these foods or you have SIBO, this can literally wreck you. Don't just add these for the sake of chasing this particular suggestion only to make your gut worse- then you're really in a bad position. More to come on GI dysfunction later. Will have the other parts of this series up soon. Enjoy!

Liver Detox Phase 1 & 2 Series coming
This is the digestible version of what's to come in the classroom. I'll keep this in mind when it comes to future posts because I too like to keep things simple and relatable. This is the 'elevator pitch' or conversation. Where this stemmed from is listening to a lecture in one of my courses about liver detox phases. It's a LOT to breakdown, which is why a full module will be built out for it in the classroom. I find this incredibly interesting and am curious if anyone here is the type that can drink coffee late into the evening without issue. Or, are you the opposite? Maybe you'd be interested in knowing that the same enzyme (CYP1A2) is responsible for clearing caffeine and is also the primary enzyme responsible for clearing & metabolizing estrogen. Even more interesting, estrogen also inhibits this enzyme. Which should leave you thinking about how this influences women at different phases in life, as well as those on birth control. Fascinating stuff, but will expand on this in the next two series as well as in the classroom. Just want you all to know I thoroughly appreciate you being part of this community!

Lab work
Question for you all: When’s the last time you had your labs drawn? What’s the biggest hurdle for you when getting them? Is it: - cost - Not knowing what labs/where to get them - The inconvenience of getting them done - Not knowing what to do with the information when you receive them - Anything else? Another question: What’s one thing you’d like to understand more when it comes to your labs? Need help ordering, or reviewing? That’s what I’m here for.

@Gokmem Karci Completely understand here. The data is great, but without direction it's just data haha. Always happy to help review labs for you on a consult if needed!

@Nick Perkins Nick! Yes absolutely. Aubrey is an affiliate at @algorx and she earns commission from people using her code. Once she (or anyone) reaches the second tier/threshold in sales for the given month, we give affiliates a higher personal discount they can use for products/labs that we offer. I’d be more than happy to help set you up as well too if you are interested!
