For guys who physically work out Ash, I'd use Tresos-B with Selenium.

I used to think that raw sugar was better than white - but now with its additives, they're probably just as bad as each other; but nowhere near as bad as 951 and 950 (aspartame & acesulphame).

On porridge, if not Stevia, then pure maple syrup (eg Camp) has less glucose than even honey. Honey can be healing on the gut, especially Manuka honey.

i don't have raw sugar for the health reasons, i prefer the taste.

Does anyone here get...

a) mid afternoon tiredness about 1-1.5hrs after lunch?

b) a flat feeling upon waking in the morning

c) both a & b?

If so (especially a & c), I have an experiment for you if you're up to it. :thumbsup:

I pretty much never feel good, no matter how much/little I sleep etc

That's pretty debilitating!

Must affect work as well as relationships? Brain-Gut Connection? Mood shifts? Feel worse the day after drinking alcohol? Any depression? In pain? Seen a Dr/Naturopath/Acupuncturist?

> Feel free to PM me with more explicit details if you wish Michael (rather than answer here).

I tend to hit a wall around 1.30-2pm on a dayshift. But as i finish @ 3:30pm and walk home... By the time i walk home I'm all invigorated etc.

Usually feel fine in the mornings of late, never used to though. Found it was lack of enough sleep and diet, so changed both and mornings aren't so bad anymore for me

Dunno if that fits your bill or not?

(cant test for 4 weeks though, working night shifts, i seem fine on those strangely)

When I started working night shifts, my circadian rhythm has never been the same even after adaptation to the change in shift hence why I need my multivitamins (twice a day) to keep me going. One thing I noticed was that at work I would hit a wall at 4am, then as soon as I'm home say.....around 8:30ish I become invigorated lol. Qutie annoying especially when I need to sleep so I can be ready for the gym and then work.

I remember when I didn't realise about my condition I was constantly lethargic and when I use to consume large amounts of simple sugars, I basically had written myself off (never ending urination/thirst). Such a bad experience after you realise your blood glucose level being at 30mmol/L and not far off elapsing into a coma.

If not to complex a deal might be willing to try it definitly get the flat in the morning feeling

multiple coffee sometimes mix guarana into it now to get moving :)

Work 12 hour shifts an definitly get doughy in the arvo normally bout 3ish

I thought most people get tired after lunch due to blood going to your stomach area for digestion (remember hearing that somewhere not sure if accurate).

Personally I always feel like a nap after lunch lol.

I'm keen on your experiment Terry :D

Lately been getting the B, in the arvo i just get the cbf's with work in general, its not the body just the mind lol.

Yer depending how complex but id put my hand up for it

Thanks for getting back to me guys...

The "Experiment" so to speak, is on a new thread.

For those of you who do night shifts, I'd replace the word "brekky" with "1st meal of the day" + "lunch" with "2nd meal of the day"

Let's see how this goes at least 3 weeks after the Vit B3/Chromium Combo?

BTW Egg yolk contains much more Chromium 2+ than 300g of beef!

This Chromium is essential for reducing insulin resistance and tiredness.

It's not to be confused with hexavalent chromium 6+ in the Erin Brokovich film.

The experiment is on the "Diabetes II Prevention" thread. I guess that came from 'left field' didn't it?

Try it: it won't hurt. And there can be much to gain.

B3 is a companion to Cr and Mg

(whereas B6 is a companion to Zn)

  • 2 weeks later...

good replies thanks Terry, I think I'll check out your recommended multi

I looove maple syrup but I'd go broke eating it all the time... I don't have a sweet tooth though, can't think of anything I sweeten on a daily basis... I eat eggs on toast for breaky these days, got it down to a 5min process... even with baked beans on gym days:)

Looked for it online, couldn't really find anywhere (probably my searching)

anyone had any luck with Tresos*B PluSe' ???

Finding it that is ?

Tresos B and it's sister with the Selenium is at health food shops or from naturopaths

Meta B Complex is about the same

Stress B Forte is about the same

SF88 is about the same

(All the above are twice as strong as the B3 in Executive B Stress)

Thanks Terry !

Found it today in a health food store in the city, did a walk through of the mall on my way to uni.

Cheers mate, trying first one now.

Got some Hivita Stress today Terry.. Massive pain in the arse to get hold of. The manufacturers site crashes out halfway through a purchase, ordered it off another site only to find that they had none in stock because Hivita had it back ordered :down:

Will report back how it goes anyways :P

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
