I knew a guy in college that tried this. It made him miserable and extremely hot and sweaty. He dropped some weight and didn't have major issues but he measured it carefully and took a low dose for a month. I kept trying to talk him out of it since I was a chem major and knew it was horrible stuff. He was lucky and didn't suffer any (known as of yet) health problems from it. This guy? Clen, DNP, thyroid hormone and more all stacked together for 8 MONTHS STRAIGHT? I am really glad he pulled through. He's one in a million lucky to survive that. That's a crazy stack of stuff to put your body through. Not sure I've heard of anyone using Clen, ephedrine, AND DNP together, that's insanity.

Yeah, usually people calculate very well in the scene, and start carefully on a low dose, safeguarding against double doses especially with DNP's half-life, only doing it in winter depending on the climate, mitigating adverse effects, etc. In fact, everybody on these forums will try so hard to convince newbies NOT to take it if they're complete beginners. Yes, this drug has been used in the past as an effective weight loss prescription, but one needs to understand it completely before doing it and newbies are not shared into the source for dnp unless they demonstrate they know how to use it and honestly, wield Its power. And herein lies the biggest problem: eating disorders and body dysmorphia. Not only these must be treated and dealt with, but in men? It's seen very differently and it's truly dangerous. I'm sorry for CE, and I'm sorry for the people who've suffered with eds, and with improper use of dnp. It shouldn't be like this.

@@personwhoexists8684 So just because the patient refuses to admit they have something means that medical professionals don't know it exists/ can ignore it? There's a difference between having a problem and admitting to yourself (and others) that you have a problem. Schizophrenia, one of your own examples, causes a paranoia that makes patients unwilling to see a professional because aside from the typical "I'm not crazy" spiel and fear of being locked up in a psych ward that a lot of people get, they also truly believe the professional in question is an alien wanting to suck their brains out through a tube or whatever. Eating disorders do a similar thing in a more subtle way - the brain ends up believing that being 'too thin' or 'too muscular' or whatever is not possible, that no matter how much people compliment you you're still not good enough, you always have to go further. And people do compliment you for losing weight (at least until you start looking like a skeleton), which reinforces in your mind that what you're doing is *good* - so a lot of people with eating disorders don't want to admit, to themselves or anyone else, that they have an eating disorder. They *want* to continue losing weight without interference, and they will resist the idea of seeing a therapist, psychologist or what have you. The brain is just that invested in protecting its routines and patterns. And if you're anorexic but refuse to let yourself see that you're anorexic, then you can read a million articles about "stuff anorexics do" and go "this does not apply to me" - that's what @@deinemutter918 is referring to.

This poor guy clearly had an eating disorder. Even before he started taking DNP he was skipping school to exercise. Huge red flag. An ED is often associated with women but men can get it too, and as someone who's suffered from one myself, it can cause you to do all sorts of risky things to lose weight.

Just in case anyone didn’t know, the “pore” in the mitochondria is called ATP Synthase which is an enzyme, that is imbedded in the mitochondrial membrane, that uses one of the protons in the gradient to do phosphorylation(adding phosphate to something) on one of the ADP to ATP which is very effective and this is where a lot of the body’s ATP(energy) comes from. Very little ATP comes from glycolysis which is where Dr. Bernard said break down more sugar 10:58. Actually you need two ATP to create 4 ATP and 2 pyruvate molecules(3-carbon molecules) from one glucose molecule for glycolysis. This is why your body burns lipocytes(fat cells) to get more energy when the proton gradient is not formed due to DNP. The whole process of donating electrons to the ETC(electron transport chain) with chemiosmosis to turn adp into atp through the ATP synthase is called oxidative phosphorylation.

I was tempted to get DNP for my weight lifting and weight loss goals but decided against it because of exactly what happened in this story. Biggest condolences to East-Bound for his loss, but it's great to see you still alive

Your comment on what happens to our bodies when been in the ICU needs a chapter of its own. These days with the CoVid still roaming in our society, some people may think that being hooked up to a “respirator” (respiratory machine, or whatever it is called) is just getting tube down you throat for a while and when the danger is over, it’s just to walk out of the hospital. However I read a description of what has to be done and the hard work of getting back to life afterwards, with months of training to get the body able to sit, stand and walk normally. On the issue in the video - a friend wrote a booked called “There’s no idea”, meaning there’s no single and SIMPLE idea that will solve all our problems. Loosing weight, getting control of our personal finances, getting fit for a Marathon, stop smoking, stop harming ourselves isn’t a ONE-STEP PROGRAM, or a pill or an app on the phone. We say in Sweden “genvägar är senvägar”, which could be translated into “short-cuts are late routes”. So, I found a new channel 👍. Interesting! PS. Tell us something about ephedrine.

You're a breath of fresh air in this materialistic world.

Also remember there is One who tallies the selfsame who is greater than us all the reward of that tally cannot be lost.Keep up the good work! An avid viewer...CCB

​@@itismedio1684 I've had people in my family receive life-saving open heart surgery in the last couple years alone, as well as numerous hospital and doctor visits. We don't pay a cent because we are a union family and our union collectively bargained for the best private healthcare available in the US. If single-payer/ACA healthcare was passed in this country, we would lose our private healthcare and be stuck with much worse coverage, higher premiums, and would have to wait in lines like the Canadians and Europeans do. I shouldn't be punished because my family worked hard and was involved in a dying organized labor movement that could ensure you actually get quality coverage.

I woke up after a few days in the ICU from a medically induced coma. I am so grateful that I didn’t have a tube down my throat and my mother was there. I couldn’t imagine being alone with a tube down my throat unexpectedly even though I knew I had one because my surgery was expected to be long especially if I was lucky. I was both very, very lucky and deeply unlucky at the same time. I guess I was just lucky enough not to be terminal anymore. A high bar might I add for my surgeon and team might I add. Shout out to Dr. Chou neurosurgeon and UCSF. The MRSA sucked though. Ngl there where a few staff… I feel they didn’t like to read charts or listen to a patient. I was told “that’s not what’s wrong with you, you can stand up. Come on stand up.” Umm. No. I am paralyzed. My mother was told I was a quadriplegic before I woke up and I was lucky I could feel half of my arms. This was a physical therapist too. She physically pulled me off the bed too. I just don’t know.

The serious problem is that people are due to social mores left over from the great depression and the attitudes that it instilled in the population. The fact is that cost is only one of the things that discourage people from seeking help from medical professions sooner rather than later, there is also the concept that seeking such help is a sign of weakness. This ironically causes medical care to be more expensive here because by the time that many people actually get help the problem is much harder and more expensive to treat. Socialized Healthcare is not free except to those who are totally dependent on other social programs as well. If you pay into a socialized system, you are paying for it even when you dont use it at all. Its not free though the per incident cost may be low or non existent it also has limits to what it can accomplish.

To be fair to the US legal system, many states (such as Texas, my state) have specific laws that grant immunity from prosecution for drug related crimes and alcohol related crimes (e.g. minor in possession) when seeking medical assistance, precisely because they don't want to deter people from seeking medical help when they need it. Unfortunately, few people are aware of these laws, so there are often cases where people don't call for help when they should, even though they have nothing to fear from the law. As here, the patient was incorrect--his use of this chemical wasn't illegal--and his unfounded fear made him reluctant to tell the doctors what they needed to know.

16:30 He makes this point sounding trivial, but it is *extremely* important, because it highlights why those body building forums, etc. are full of selection bias; because dead people don't tell their story! Like I said, this is trivial, and yet, it is so easily overlooked in our everyday life.

I mightily appreciate this dude routinely bringing up what we all automatically say after "mitochondria..."

Was thinking the same! you take 6 things to grow and another 6 to not end up dead or with tits from the first 6 and then you take another 14 cause you got sponsors now which leads to needing eating another 10 to not die from liverfailure or kidney colapse!

@@thehochmaster2 I totally agree. There should not be a profit motive when it comes to healthcare. And the insurance industry is such a mess, the amount of resources dedicated to billing all these different companies with different plans and policies, all so they can profit off people with terminal illnesses. If there was only a single payer plan, so much money would be saved in billing alone, but unfortunately special interests make billions off the current backwards system and fight tooth and nail against any attempts to make good healthcare more accessible and less financially devastating. It really is such a mess in the US, and so many people have no idea how these things actually work until they get stuck with thousands in medical bills.

Amazing explanation of what is happening in the mitochondria. This sort of thing is why getting into a medical school is so hard -- knowing chemistry and physics is important to doctors.

I was very close to taking DNP once, as I was also browsing weight loss/fitness forums. I decided against it because I'm convinced that I get overheated easily and DNP would definitely put me in the hospital at best.

I found out what the key to weight loss. It's called watch how much sugar you eat. Seriously when the spouse was diagnosed with Type II diabetes I started looking into it. Then realized food manufacturers dump loads of sugar into something as simple as condiments. It's everywhere. Limit sugar intake to 30g or less per day and well I went from being 5'8" 240lbs to 150lbs. My BP normalized, I feel better and we reversed spouses Type II diabetes.

I really like this story and you bringing the subject of the story in to help tell it. It was very interesting and added a layer of realism to this. I hope you do another!

After binging several videos, I'm so glad I found this channel :) As a chemist who fancies reading about medicine, I love that you actually show the structures of molecules mentioned in your videos (helps with figuring out how they might react in the described case, sometimes it happens that I may be right, and it's super satisfying), and the extensive references in the description (even though I might not understand everything in these papers, the last time I had biology classes was in high school). And the subtle memeing, yes. Me gusta.

It's wonderful to have an informed MD address some of the more exotic internet available substances, especially ones that have mixed results advertised as "safe." Thank you Chubbyemu! Happy Holidays!
