Samm Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 I have a question, should body building supplements make my hppd worse? Cause I am using them and I'm afraid it will cause more troubles.. But don't just say YES IT MAKES HPPD WORSE because you think it would probably be bad so, I would really like to use them so only give advice if you know for sure. Thanks in advance guys, greetz! ( Supplements are: amino acids, creatine, weight gain / protein shakes, pre-workout powers & post-workout powers like magnificent, total muscle solution.. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepuinthesky Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 lets beginn with the shakes they will not effect your HPPD i use a whey shake no probs....(drink enough water 1litre/20kg body weight) as for bcaas(aminos) i read that they are able to prevent CNS fatigue triggered by sports, this means they should be able to prevent temporary symptom worsening after workout. creatine i wouldnt recomend to take it over a long time make a diet 6 month seems to be a good time. in connection to creatine you have to drink a lot of water because they can dehydrate you and trigger temporary Visual snow. gaba isnt able to cross the blood brain barier. no influence onsymptoms so be careful with supps messing with your serotonin lvl. like l-tryptophan, dunno if they have an effect on brain serotonin lvls. also be careful with fatburners some have visual disturbances as an side effect. proteine and carbs shouldnt effect you maybe to much carbs out of simple sugar could make anxiety worse if this is a problem for you. took maltodextrin this is a good post workout supp in connection to protein shakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morbide Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 I'm wondering over the same questions but i think that creatine, shakes and amoni-acids are ok. If the pwo you are taking contains DMAA (1,3-Dimethylamylamine) you should considering training without it. Seriously pwo's are just a waste of money, you get a better kick from simple caffeinetabs.

nepuinthesky Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 also a good pwo could be taurin caps they dont seem to influence symptoms as coffeine seems to do for some here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samm Posted May 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Ok guys thanks very much for the information! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
415_stylee Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Use a good two step whey/caseine protein supplement with a complete amino acid profile (there are 20 amino acids). It's completely safe to use and gives noticeable increases in muscle building. Everything else is a waste of money and will likely do little or nothing. Caffeine in higher doses will increase HPPD and DP/DR so go easy on that one at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
must-be-a-way-to-heal Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 as far as i am aware all supplaments are good.. the only thing that may amp your sympoms are pre workout intensifiers and fat burners.. containing caffine etc tho still after some time your symptoms will go back to a base level.

brendan Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 acetyl cysteine is excellent for my brain fog, esp when used with alpha lipoic acid and 5000iu vit d per day. Undenatured whey protein may have a similar effect to acetyl cysteine but not tried it (must be undenatured). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samm Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 And does testo do anything wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Smith Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Yeah brendan, i started taking NAC again, it's helpin me lots. Although I have been exercising so i cant attribute it to that directly. Found some hydro syrup in my moms medicine cabinet and i drank it for about 4 days last week, also while drinkin, and now ive regressed again :/ haha but yeah nac definitely helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Smith Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 and as far as weight lifting supplements, shit like NOXPLODE should definitely make your symptoms worse id think. It almost like drinking a red bull that. I take whey protein and it works wonders. If you want a natural energizer for a pre workout get some tyrosine.

morbide Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 And does testo do anything wrong? If you mean testo like in aas then i think it's harmless, my friend was on 500mg testo-e for 8 weeks he has hppd and didn't notice any change. Although i wouldn't recommend it.

nepuinthesky Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 <joke on> maybe some sort of micropsia while looking on your testicle <joke off> you dont need every possible supp. whey and maybe bcaa are enough, when you have a good diet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gill Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 Free form amino acids have aggravated by hppd temporarily in the past. (not NAC though). No negative effect in protein form though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brendan Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 I tried acetyl carnitine some while back, and it made me very depressed. I cannot see how or why this would occur but i am pretty sure it was the ac doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samm Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Is Winstrol, also called stanozolol, bad for the HPPD symptoms? Cause i'm allready training 2 years and i'm kinda at my max now. So I wanna take these tabs for extra building and motivation And with that motivation I'm going to keep on exercising, and I know it will make my HPPD better. But will the winstrol increase my symptoms? I hope someone can give me advise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrade Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Winstrol? .......That's really bad. .....Usually used by Veterinarians.............it's a straight anabolic steroid. Under most circumstances, men develop their own testosterone. Look up anabolic-steroid-induced-psychosis. Then you can factor that into your HPPD-routine. ......Whinny? ....Really?

Samm Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 So every anabolic steroid is bad for my symtoms? Is there any that doesn't effect it? Like anavar? Allready thanks for all your replies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrade Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 anabolic steroids are bad for your nuts in particular............sort of like a late summer withered underdeveloped grape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketusa Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 I just read that someone was cured from HPPD by taking BCAA's for three months. Apparently BCAA's are good for the brain recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
