DNP & Carbohydrates

[vBRAH]

Do you guys think it'll be more beneficial to carb deplete a few days before starting DNP? Or it wont really matter? (That being said the first few days are run on a low dose anyway)

When I'm cutting I rarely go above 100g of carbs per day so it might not matter either way, just thought I'd grab some opinions

i wouldnt think so. i would continue to eat a low fat diet but not cut the carbs completly out

Ok cool, thanks for that

less than 100g of carbs a day is not good IMHO unless your doing contest prep u need at least 120-150 for your brain to function properly

On DNP or in general? I'm fine under 100g of carbs, works for me

It often amazes me at just how misunderstood DNP really is!
There are so many ill-conceived myths about it that I'm going to develop an informational. But in the interim and with regard to the present thread, this piece should suffice.

DNP 101

A primary and often exploited symptom of DNP poisoning is fat loss, a cellular disengagement condition created by the body’s desperate search for sustenance. Unable to effectively process and therefore in lieu of external nourishment, biological protocol next dictates the utilization of its own reserves, and this is precisely why the rapid fat loss occurs. As poisoning progresses throughout the various phases (mild, moderate, severe, and the hybrids between them), fat loss increases correlatively, and if unchecked eventually becomes extensive.

Thus, once you've effectively achieved uncoupling, it's simply not possible for the body to store anything you consume. Consequently, it really doesn't matter what or how you eat on DNP…as Anthony Roberts said in his ‘Inferno’ (a very good read, see references below), and I quote “Even the benefit of being able to eat whatever I wanted…”

Nevertheless, a little mechanism called homeostasis disallows fat loss permanence because it views (and rightly so) all such losses as illicit. This system operates similarly with regard to losses achieved during fasting, crash diets, and sickness.

DNP is dangerous enough, please don't starve yourself on it or perform cardio at doses of higher than 200mgs ED, or after several days on even at low doses because of it’s cumulative nature.
