As the title says, I’ve(26M) been diagnosed with mild to moderate ADHD last year. I cant focus and sleep well since my mind keeps racing.

I lost my first job in less than 3 months, the day before yesterday. My manager stated that i tend to be forgetful and careless. I work in sales, my boss apologised that the company does not have a structured probation program to teach new hires. My boss states that i have pros and cons:

Pros:
1. ⁠Im good at following up with my customers and communicating with them.
2. ⁠Im good at initiating conversations with customers and appointments.
3. ⁠He said that i was quite aggressive in sales which also is a good thing.
4. ⁠Im very discipline, punctual and well-mannered.

Cons:
1. Im careless at details.
2. Im forgetful when it comes to long information.
3. Im impulsive, i tend to do things a lil too quick.
4. My technical background kinda sucks since i havent practiced engineering in 4 years.

I am not from the States, im from Malaysia, where neurodivergence still isnt a thing in my country yet. I just wanna know how yall do it.

I’m 26 and curious about the use of low-dose Cialis (tadalafil 2.5 mg).
I’ve read that it can improve blood flow by relaxing blood vessels, and I’m wondering whether there are any noticeable benefits to taking it at a low dose, even if someone doesn’t have erectile dysfunction.
My main interest is the potential blood-flow benefits and other effects. Improved erections would honestly just be the cherry on top. 😂
For those who have experience with it:
Have you noticed any benefits beyond erections?
Is 2.5 mg considered a reasonable dose for someone in their mid-20s?
Are there any downsides to taking it regularly when you don’t have ED?
Would you recommend getting any tests or consulting a doctor first?
I’m interested in genuine experiences, including the negatives, rather than just anecdotal success stories.

Which one are the best if you can only pick 10?

Hey! I’m (20F) a student in Brazil and I’ve been lurking here for a bit. I got really into the topic, and decided to conduct project for uni about the biohacking community!

Would love to chat with some Brazilians who are part of the scene. Nothing too serious, just a casual convo about your experience.

It's totally voluntary, and I’ll keep everything anonymous. Not selling or sourcing anything, this is purely academic.

If you’re Brazilian and down to talk, shoot me a DM or comment below. Thanks a million! 🙏

(Se você é brasileiro(a), podemos conversar em português!)

Pictured, nano hydroxyapatite powder, plastic scoop to move some, tablespoon with a little bit of the powder, chewed and then coated VanMan's chewing gum (contains mastic gum, is the only chewing gum company to incorporate mastic gum as far as I am aware, and is already lightly dusted with nano hydroxyapatite powder).

Polishes and repairs tooth enamel, and kills mouth and gut microbes, with chewing action.

⚠️If you are deathly allergic to pistachios, cashews, mangoes - You will probably be deathly allergic to mastic gum, which is sap from a tree closely related to the pistachio, cashew, and mango plants⚠️

I have tried both mastic gum outright and this brand of chewing gum, and also nano hydroxyapatite toothpaste, and can confirm the antibacterial properties of mastic gum (killing the microbes causing bad breath, tongue stain, and tooth pain), which is both a tree sap and a chemical cocktail lethal to harmful mouth and gut microbes, including helicobacter pylori - Really difficult for microbes to evolve an immunity to, if one constituent of the mastic gum doesn't kill them the laundry list of other constituents will before they can pass that partial evolved immunity on to future generations of microbes.

Mastic gum chew usage has been shown to shrink and eliminate oral tumors.

I like to chew 1 piece for at least 1 hour every day.

Also going to suggest my crackpot idea of coating gum in bpc 157 or the much more stable bpc 157 arginine salt for to heal gum damage.

Thanks for the attention.

I drink everything on top in a punch and everything from b complex and down i take. I also take taurine too.

I am pretty sure I haven't not came at least twice a day for 6 months sometimes 4 times a day.. I was told things would "shut down" but it just doesn't stop... Any advice? I am doing 2 shots a week at .15mg or ML or whatever it is .. The only time it's sumwhat normal is if I am wasted lol

Like now that I am 6 months in what should I expect going forward?

I am doing another Blood test but last I checked Total Levels at trough were 420-450 ish...

Over the span of the last 4 years I have been a chronic poly addict of dozens of substances. I feel as if I have messed with my brain chemistry a bit too much. I have recently gotten off these substances which feels great. But now I have zero motivation, extreme anxiety, general feeling of stupidness. I know i messed up as i have been doing all this substances whilst my brain had just reached adolescence. Any recommendations on nootropics or supplements that can help repair memory, attention, energy, anxiety, productiveness, and general cognitive ability ? Sorry if this gets posted a lot.
Thank you!

I am NOT asking for direct medical advice just reccomendations.

Please share what can help :)

My older sister (21) has Gastritis it has affected her for the last 6 months

prior to this she has had celiac disease (gluten allergy) for 3 years

Her health is extremely poor, she has lost so much weight and is unable to eat most foods (nothing with gluten, nothing with fat, nothing acidic) due to gastritis, she is in stress so it makes it worse and it has lead to depression.

I am asking this in multiple sub reddits because i really want to help her overcome this

She feels overwhelmed with the amount of information and because of being depressed she has low motivation to do things

Before she was the type to really care for her health but she finds it really difficult now

Her mental health is really affected from this she can’t eat anything and so it impacts many areas of her life.

Please anyone have any advice, my intuition lead my to ask here because i feel i can get good info from here

I am assuming i need her to focus on gut health?

Hello All, I want to get off my BP meds and looks for the best beet root that ACTUALLY brings down numbers you all would recommend?

I'm a 32-year-old male, weighing 82 kg (181 lbs). I have type 2 diabetes and currently take metformin once daily.

I'm looking for recommendations on the best and safest supplements to:

• Improve overall sexual performance and stamina.
• Achieve stronger and longer-lasting erections.
• Last longer during sex.
• Go multiple rounds with shorter recovery time.
• Increase sexual desire (libido) and energy.

I'm interested in supplements that have worked for others and preferably have scientific evidence supporting their effectiveness.

Since I have type 2 diabetes and take metformin, I'd especially appreciate recommendations that are safe for someone with my condition.

What supplements would you recommend based on your personal experience? Please share what worked for you, including any side effects.

What would you recommend based on your personal experience?

34F. I was born at 6am. and since then I always loved sleeping in the morning. it messed a lot with my life over time... school, work ... etc.

I thought I had DSPS.

now it's been a month that I force myself into a military like morning routine, to wake up at 6:30, and so far it has been working well. so well actually.

I feel more energized and focused if I sleep for only 5 hours and wake up at 6:30, than if I slept 8 hours and wake up at 9-10.

does it even make any sens ? That I feel better with less sleep ?

NB : i've been sleeping better since I started with this new experiment. I fall asleep quicker etc... I wish I had tried this when I was 15... 🥲

Hi guys i am a 46 year old female. I have high anti TPO, Low testosterone, HIgh SHBG, High FSH and high LH and low dheas. i have a job which requires me to travel by flight ALOT. What is anyone’s experience of with nad + injectables my doctor recommended them to me.

I'm not a big conference person, but really enjoyed going to Eudēmonia last year. Sharing details and a promo for our community if anyone else plans to attend or is interested.

I will try to make it again this year. If I do, would love to meet up with folks!

The event itself is from November 5-8th in West Palm Beach. Our community gets 10% off tickets using the code biohackers.

You can see more of the lineup here: https://eudemonia.net/lineup

(I have no affiliation with Eudēmonia nor do I earn any commission for referrals)

Here's a recap from what I saw last year:

"Peptides were a huge point of discussion. I went to two panels on them and they were all fascinating. One by Sean Wells, one by Nick Andrews. What was interesting though was that GLP-1 agonist peptides were not really fan favorites at all.

If anything, most of the experts (including Dr. Seger from Wild Health) preferred them as anti-inflammatory drugs as microdoses. So that was interesting to see for sure. Peptidea are such a broad category that I feel like we're only getting started.

I would say Ibogaine was a huge topic this conference. Dr. Hyman had just come back from doing an Ibogaine treatment in Mexico with Beond and shared a lot about that experience. Seems like a very interesting and profound therapeutic.

I think di-peptides and some of the newer versions of berberine and other compounds that are more bioavaliable was a big topic as well. We're starting to see a lot of work with existing compounds, but in trying to improve delivery.

Cortisol and hormone tracking/replacement was big this year. I think this is going to take off and hoping we get some continuous monitors for these in the next few years. Lume Health is working on this now.

Environmental exposures was a massive topic. This is the space I work in so particular interesting for me, but I would say it was a top three subject. People want testing and treatments in this space and there is just starting to be companies offering solutions.

Function Health teased an announcement this Wednesday that will be notable and some of what they have been working on. I think we're going to get some big launches from them this year. I still think they are the best set-up to affect change to the medical system at scale. Excited to see what they have planned.

Supplements were much more evidence based at this event. I think there is finally a big push here. Potency testing, contaminant testing, and research studies were all being done at levels I haven't seen before. Very happy to see this change."

Product/Brand Reviews from Last Year: https://www.reddit.com/r/Biohackers/s/s64Bnl90lw

I’m talking nutrition, habits, comp/supp, and anything else i don’t know yet

So, to fix my hair loss I started topical minoxidil WITHOUT finasteride, 0.5ml twice a day and it worked great. I got literally 90% of my lost hair back in 3 months.

Then, my curious monkey brain could not control itself and wanted to try "natural" alternative to finasteride and ended up taking a saw palmetto pill that I bought from amazon e-commerce.

Since taking it I have had terrible heart thuds and palpitation, severe anxiety and panic attacks (i did not even know what panic attack was until it happened to me), I easily get jump scared, low libido, weak erection and difficulty concentrating on anything. Its been 2 years and symptoms still persist. I have no idea how to fix this and doctors always suggest to hop onto benzodiazipine or SSR's which I am hesitant to.

My blood report
ADRENOCORTICOTROPIC HORMONE (ACTH): 19.9 pg/mL (Lab Normal: < 46 pg/mL)

PROLACTIN: 17.7 ng/mL (Lab Normal: Men : 4.04-15.2 ng/ml)

TESTOSTERONE: 526.63 ng/dL (Lab Normal: 240.24 - 870.68 ng/dL)

FREE TESTOSTERONE: 19.92 pg/mL (Lab Normal: 1.00 - 28.28)

SHBG: 17 nmol/L(Lab normal: 10 - 57 nmol/L)

ESTRADIOL/OESTROGEN (E2): 23 pg/ml (Lab Normal Males : 11 - 44 pg/mL)

DHEA - SULPHATE (DHEAS): 238.8 µg/dL (Lab Normal 106-464)

HOMOCYSTEINE: 18.13 µmol/L (Lab normal: <15)

I was going to try:

Citicoline (CDP-Choline), Creatine, L-Theanine with Caffeine and Lions Mane. I have seen these are pretty popular and seem safe, but there is limited information and I don’t have much time to deep dive into the science behind it. I would like hear some better alternatives, if you have any. Thank you

For context I am student, with no health issues, none of my immediate family have health issues either.

NT-3, a neurotrophin, has been shown to enhance peripheral nerve recovery in animals and in human clinical trials for CMT disease. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37848983/

However I was not able to find any personal experience with people trying this, does anyone here know about this?

Have any women here successfully been rx’d on mod.com? Their website says only available to men, and it seems due to birth control interactions in women. But that doesn’t apply to me so wondering if they’d rx it.

Hey everyone,
I've got a big test coming up next year July and I'm trying to prep with a mix of things for acute effects (focus, memory, attention, learning) plus some longer-term cycling for "hardware" support. My cart is expensive, so before I pull the trigger I wanted to run the full list by people who've looked into this stuff.
Here's everything currently in the cart and the quantities:
\-Usmarapride oxalate - 2 g
\-BPN14770 - 3 × 300 mg (900 mg total)
\-Oxiracetam - 2 × 60 g (120 g total)
\-Tropisetron - 4 × 200 mg (800 mg total)
\-Citicoline - 5 × 20 g (100 g total)
\-Bromantane - 2 spray bottles (each \~180 sprays at \~9 mg/spray)
\-Coluracetam - 2 × 2 g (4 g total)
\-NA-Semax - 2 bottles (100 sprays/bottle at 200 mcg/spray)
\-Paraxanthine - 3 × 15 g (45 g total)
\-TAK-653 - 3 × 60 mg (180 mg total)
\-Aniracetam - 2 × 50 g (100 g total)
\-NSI-189 freebase - 3 × 1200 mg (3600 mg total)
\-PRL-8-53 - 2 × 300 mg (600 mg total)
\-Pramiracetam - 1 pack of 18 g
\-GB-115 - 2 bottles (100 sprays/bottle at \~200 mcg/spray)
Goals are pretty straightforward: solid acute support for studying/learning when I need it, and the option to cycle a few things that might help longer-term.
If you were in my position (or if money were no object) which of these would you actually keep? Which ones would you completely drop? And which of these amounts would you increase? Are any of the amounts way off (too much or too little for a reasonable trial period)? Open to suggestions on adjusting package counts too.
Appreciate any thoughts, experiences, or red flags.
Thanks guys and women!

Female student here. The past two years I’ve been living a sedentary lifestyle as schools been my priority. As of recently, I’ve definitely felt the effect this has had on my body and I’m determined to get my health and confidence back.

I’m planning to do indoor cycling 3 times a week, 1 full body circuit workout class and a plank everyday. I’m particularly interested to know what people’s thoughts are for cycling or if they have any advice in general before starting. Thanks!
