Thanks for the tip. I tried aspirin awhile back, but never got up to the gram + doses like I know some have done on here. IIRC I don't think I was doing the DHEA while doing aspirin. Let me ask a question if you or anyone else knows. In another thread, someone mentioned that they dump some aspirin in an Epsom salt bath along with some urea. I don't have any urea but recently I've taken a couple of Epsom salt baths and I dumped some aspirin in too. I feel and look extra bloated. I've taken Epsom salt baths before and don't get the bloat. I don't believe the extra bloat is food related. Can higher dose aspirin, assuming enough of it absorbed, cause extra fluid retention?
You don't need to megadose the aspirin for the effect with dhea, 500mg worked for me.
In relation to the fluid retention I don't know exactly why it happens but it does for some, caffeine does the same for some as creatine and niacinamide.
It could be adrenaline being effected but aspirin supposedly shouldn't do this.
Peat in a recent email mentioned caffeine effecting water in the body via adrenaline, it was a question on fluid retention.
Niacinamide and creatine are involved with adrenalin,think niacinamide may be a cofactor at times.
It may also be histamine related,those who are more sensitive to histamine may have the effect come on from slight elevation of pufa.
Theanine is good for histamine and lowering cortisol, mitolipin also stops excessive adrenalin albeit slightly and contains vitamin E so could be a good option to try.
