Summary
Ran a Freddd-style active methylation stack - L-carnitine fumarate, methylcobalamin, methylfolate and adenosylcobalamin, doses escalated then scaled back to around 2 tablets a day each - in what he called the "very early days" of trying it. He got an initial "wow" jump (overwhelming fatigue lifted into "a more natural tired"), but "the progress slowed up" and the gains were "pretty much gone," with skin flare-ups and headaches persisting afterward.
