Im really pleased to of discovered this thread. Ive not talked much about the years i was on Resperdal and what it did to me the lasting effects and how at the age of 38 im finally learning ways to reverse some of the damage.
When i was 19 i had a bad acid trip, my first and only time ever i dropped two tabs i think and smoked alot of joints following. I'll spare the details and after math. At that time in my life i had few friends who cared about me and was surrounded by drugs and drink. I ended up developing borderline skitzo or so the doc said and put me on resperdal. I was on that terrible drug for all of my 20's and part of my 30's. Most of my 20's is blurred memory's with clear bits here and there. The majority of the time i had little energy and felt whacked out like constantly stoned. I did manage to complete study with much effort and cost. I put on weight at ever increasing speed and by the time i decided in my early 30's if i didn't quit taking it i wasn't gonna see my 40's. I had developed the infamous male tits and minor motor problems medication induced dyskinesia. I had to go cold turkey thankfully i had been reducing my dose to get off it but it was taking too long. Almost immediately i saw rapid weight lose due to built up fluid. The dyskinesia thankfully went away after some months. The next 7 years of my life became an obsession in exercise and learning at a scientific lvl about additives chemicals and colors in foods as well as an ongoing interest in applying spices and herbs in medicinal ways minerals too.
When i begun getting my life and health back i was guzzling coke like it was water energy drinks all that bad crap pies tons of bread etc. Throughout the years i gradually stopped all of it, i rarely buy supermarket bread now if anything i bake it mostly cause the stuff in shops is full of sugar not to mention crap like soy which yes is bad when eaten in excess especially for men. I only drink coke if im offered i never buy it at all today. When i first came off resperdal i was around 120kg now im under 90 ive been close to 80 before which is lite for me. Im 5"9. Anyway that drug did me far more harm than good, and yeah ive read about all the law suits its actually banned in some countries now. I'd like to offer some of the things ive learnt that help in this thread in a list which i'll create below. Do use any of it that looks interesting carefully because everyone has different bodies. Some of its just good common sense.
Activated Charcoal - neutralizes poison
Virgin olive oil - rub on male breast tissue to make them reduce. Must be cold pressed.
Borax - improves arthritic conditions use in tiny amounts a small pinch in drink is enough
Carob powder - has large amounts of magnesium with alot of calcium as a bonus, zero caffeine
Turmeric - great source of non-heme iron. Heals cuts much faster if rubbed on them.
Chilli powder - great source of vitamin A and Vitamin C. Awesome if rubbed on skin. Avoid getting in eyes.
Potatoes - Dont eat unless organic certified they'll be full of pesticides. See the dirty dozen list.
Black pepper - improves the absorption of minerals and compounds, great if had combined in hot drinks
Baking soda, if used to brush your teeth they'll thank you. Use care with gums as its abrasive.
Black tea - dont like fluoride? stop drinking it.
Coffee - it can be improved by adding a little baking soda to lower the acid. Alkalinity.
Sugar - instead of having sweetness in hot drinks eat it in a biscuit or piece of cake whilst drinking your drink.
Another major thing i started doing was filtering water, this was out of necessity because the local water supplies started having chlorine added. Anyone who's done much reading on chlorine will know about the toxic byproducts produced in local water supplies from chlorine. Not to mention all of the rubbish in the water normally heavy metals etc. I'll explain how to easily filter water at home fairly economically.
Requirements
3 liter juice bottle with screw cap
3 coffee filter papers - faggs brand works well
Activated charcoal, can buy in good quantity's online
One large funnel
Baking soda or something to sterilize the juice bottle
A glass pyrex measuring jug
Seasalt and grinder
Clean the juice bottle as you would for making beer, ive found a little charcoal and baking soda works quite well when mixed with water. Tap water is fine as the bottle will be getting rinsed again with filtered water.
Place the funnel in the bottle once you've given it an initial rinse.
The funnel should fit stably, as it will have to hold the weight of the water.
Next place one coffee filter in, folding the bottom seam up and the side seam creates a sort of spring
Do the same to the second and third coffee filters placing them into each other
Once you've got 3 filters stacked, add 2-3 teaspoons of activated charcoal into the top filter
Begin carefully filling the filters up with water, try to hold it open with your fingers so it aligns better
At first it'll drop a little charcoal into the bottle, without further improvements this is unavoidable.
Its a slow process, once the bottle gets to about quarter full place the funnel assembly into the pyrex jug
Swish the filtered water around and drain it, the bottle should now be well sanitized.
Place the funnel back in, and resume cycling water through.
The water should be becoming quite clear by now with little charcoal filtering through.
It might take anywhere up to a couple of hours depending on how dedicated you are to filter 3 liters.
Finally once your happy with the amount of water filtered grind in some seasalt.
Seasalt is needed because filtering through charcoal removes everything the good and the bad.
Make a coffee, hot drink or chill in your fridge and taste the difference. This is how i drink water today. Compared to the cost of an electric filter system or reverse osmosis its much more cost effective and something you could start doing without too much effort.
This is all part of where quiting taking resperdal lead me too. I prob drink and eat better than most people in the city where i live. I exercise most days but the most benefits ive had is from knowledge.
