I got

advice for ya.... don't use any usnic acid. It uncouples your DNA, basically causing massive cellular oxidation. This could cause illnesses as well as contribute to diseases such as cancer, which is cause be cellular oxidation.... smoking cigarettes, shit like that. Have your tried anything like clen/t3/eca/nyc, or combo of these. They are very effective and much safer than usnic acid or DNP.

Usnic Acid does NOT uncouple your DNA. It is an uncoupler in the oxidative phophorlation process. Basically you become less efficient at making ATP. Heat is generated and yo loose fat. ALLEGEDLY and HYPOTHETICALLY it causes some interference with centromere production during Mitosis. Never proven in humans mind you. And as far as making you more prone to certain cancers(bone) that too is alleged and hypothentical, in humans. It has been used for centuries as an antibiotic, and antiseptic. Seems those selling products that would compete with usnic acid sales are the ones hyping all the negativity.

It's been used for centuries in the form of usnea or kombucha extract which probably contains about 5-10 mgs of Usnic acid. You're recommending dosages up to 1000mg a day. Are there any studies on humans or animals using a dose this high? Who knows what's going on at that dosage. Just because it's been used for centuries safely at a low dose doesn't mean one can increase the dose 100 fold and still presume it to be safe.
