Summary
Runs a large daily regimen -- sodium ascorbate, glycine, lysine and proline at 2-5g per meal, 40,000 IU beta carotene per meal, Lugol's iodine, malic acid, DHEA, pregnenolone, weekly minerals/B vitamins, plus Tindamax and Benicar -- along with periodic flushes. Reports losing about 35 lbs of fat over 4-5 flushes and that "my skin and energy improved a bit," a modest, hedged gain rather than a dramatic turnaround, with no data given on whether it lasted.
