    Yet another DNP question (Supplements)

    Okay bros,

    I'm going to run a 20 day DNP cycle at 200mg every 24 hours and I just want to make sure I will be using the proper supplements with it. So here a the run down of the supplements on hand.

    DNP 200mg/day
    **WATER** 2-4 gallons/day
    Vitamin E 2 X 500iu/day
    Vitamin C 2 X 1000mgs/day
    Pyruvate 3 X 1g/day
    Potassium Gluconate 3 X 1g/day
    Glycerol 3 X 1tbs/day
    ECA Stack (as needed)/day
    Benadryl (as needed)/sleep or other

    Let me know if I'm missing anything or if there is anything I should consider adding (OTC wise).

    4 gallons a day is WAY overkill man....i'm running 250mg crystal a day right now and im peeing clear on 5 litres water 2 litres fruit juice...i'm only on day 3 so ill probably have to bump it up a bit, but not to 4 gallons if ur only on 200mg a day

    Snrf,

    It may be overkill but it's only water lol and 2 gallons a day is my usual intake. What kind of supplements are you using for your cycle?

    better do some reading about water toxicity!!!! I just finished 20 days at half them being 250mg a day and the other half 500mg day of crystal. Certainly didn't need that much water. and NO it isn't just water, read about it.

    Yeah 4 gallons is completely un-necessary!!
    Just don't forget your multi-vitamin and multi-mineral

    Thanks for the input Lynn, but I already know of "water intoxication" as the study you sent me calls it. Sodium levels that are offset in my body can easily be replaced by means of diet and sodium supplements. So, YES, it is only water.

    My original question was regarding my supplements and not about water. So would anyone else have any insight on my supplement choices and not about water?

    Thanks for the response SVT. Do the other supps look good, along with the addittion to my regular multi (AnimalPak 2 X day)? My usual water intake of 2 gallons should be good enough then and I hope this will put an end to the water sub topic going on here?

    This is what I have found to be the most recommended supplements for a low dose DNP cycle. All additions to the supplements I'll be taking are in RED.

    DNP 200mg/day (every 24 hours)

    **WATER** 2 gallons/day

    Mulit-Vitamin
    Calcium 2000mg (before bedtime)
    Magnesium 1500mg (not taken with calcium)
    Potassium 1 X 200mg
    L-Taurine 2 X 500mg/day
    Lutein 1 X 20mg
    Vitamin E 2 X 400iu/day
    Vitamin C 3 X 1000mgs/day
    T3 1 X 100mcg/day
    Pyruvate 3 X 1g/day
    Glycerol 3 X 1tbs/day
    Alpha-Lipoic Acid 1000mg (in divided doses)
    ECA Stack (as needed)/day
    Benadryl (as needed)/sleep or other

    Does this look better?

    Thanks for the response iNvid. Would those have to do with cramping and rehydrating properly? From what I've read on here and other boards is that taurine and potassium supplements aren't really required for the "low & slow" method of dosing, but on the other hand I want to make sure I'm using this compound with safety.

    yeah potassium is mainly for the cramping..taurine is to compensate for the taurine levels that are naturally lowered/lost while on dnp ..and the lutein is just something extra for your eyes..im very cautious as regards to cataracts/my eyes

    im on my 6th cycle right now at 600mg for about 3 weeks and im running all those

    Hey iNvid,

    I forgot to ask you what you would recommend for dosing of the supplements you listed?

    To liftin,

    True Vitamin C is cheap, bumping it up a couple of grams wouldn't hurt and will also help with hydrating too

    potassium - 200mg (I have heard alot of users that take this stuff like water..i find 200 just the right amount for me)
    taurine - 1g
    lutein-20mg

    forgot to mention in my last post that most of the taurine thats lowered/depleted while on dnp is in the liver, contrary to some belief that its usually spread out within the body. just thought you should know what body part you are mainly helping out...

    on a side note im down 7.5pounds in 4 days at 600mg/3 days and 400mg/1 day

    Been awhile since my last post. iNvid, I haven't started yet (just got my AR-R stuff couple of days ago) but will be doing so in the next day or so and plan on starting a log on here as well. Test, Yeah I plan on running 100mcg of liquid T-3 and no I only plan on running it with the DNP cycle. I plan on doing 2 lose dose 3 week cycles (3 weeks on, 3 weeks off, 3 weeks on), so maybe it might be a good idea to run 9-12 weeks of the T-3??? Any suggestions?

    Oh yeah, I will only be doing a 200mg daily dose, not 400mg as stated in my last post (typo).
