GLUCOPHAGE.. Info & Help Needed!

[MonStar1023]

I am curious about glucophage I have heard some good and bad things about it. I am eating pretty low-carbs (under ~40-50g per day) everyday of the week, and twice per week I eat a HUGE carb-up meal. Its a diet called Natural Hormonal Enhancement.

Anyway thats not important, whats important is that I am trying to REALLY make the most of my huge carb-up refeeds. I was thinking that 500-1000 mg. of glucophage before my carb-up meal would really make a big difference in terms of the insulin spike, glycogen replenishment etc.

What do you guys think?

Where online would be a good place to find it?

SirWanksalot-
Already read all those bro.

Looking for a decent, affordable, RELIABLE, and FAST source to get it from. Not Great Britain etc.



Also curious if 500-1000 mg. before a huge-carb up meal is ideal? I have heard anywhere from 30-120 minutes before the meal, or even AFTER the meal is beneficial.

Relax. If you really want an answer, relax.

Metaphormin is pretty easy stuff to get legally. Just go see a doc with this link printed out http://www.smart-drugs.com/Ward-Dean-metformin.htm and get a prescription. Hell they put a bunch of kids on the stuff in weight loss trials http://my.webmd.com/content/article/2731.938

1st start taking ALA on carb up days and until you re-eter ketosis
take 300mg right before eating a carby meal (half life is 30 minutes) (900 to 1500mg a day)

2nd - once you get metaphormin (from scrip) - try 500mg in the morning and another 500mg in the evening (with or just before your carby meal).

SirWanksalot-
Thanks for the links bro. The thing is that I really dont have access to get a to a doctor's office just to show him something and get the perscription. I was thinking about just getting it from a source online. Mailing in a check and having it come in the mail...



Looking for it as cheap as possible, and getting it here ASAP.

Ok, Ok.

The BEST combination for glucose up-take is:

1700mg Metformin/day.(Max is 2550mg)

Any less and you get SQUAT.

Plus, 1000mg ALA/day.

So, for your carb-up meal I'd take 1700mg Metformin+
1000mg ALA. Unless you're prone to indigestion
this combo shouldn't be a problem.
