Something really strange is going on with my body. I can't tolerate any antioxidants and haven't found anyone else with these symptoms online. Any of the following will cause testicular tightness, shrinkage, burning in groin area (with no other symptoms anywhere else):
-Vitamin C (2g and above)
-Glutathione
-N-Acetyl Cysteine
-Glycine
-Magnesium Glycinate
-Astaxanthin
And probably some others I forget. I'm mainly wanting to do topical Vitamin C for hair loss since I saw some good studies. But I can't even take magnesium glycinate at sufficient doses (2g) as it seems to cause increased glutathione synthesis via the glycine and leads to the same uncomfortable symptoms.
What is the possible mechanism? I remember taking up to 10g of Vitamin C years ago without problems, now I can't even take 2g.
