As for Magnesium, i don't tolerate Citrate well, i get the shits from a normal dose, as with all minerals bound to Citrate, as well as Citric Acid.
Oh! So it might be just the citrate form. I take magnesium in summertime to prevent cramps, but noticing the bowel stimulation, I sometimes take it for that too when needed.
Incidentally, citrate tastes like sh**. Are other salts better?
If you can find an honest supplier, Magnesium Bisglycinate (commonly called Magnesium Glycinate) is the most absorbable form and doesn't give you the shits.
A few years back I was having issues with "extra" beats and it felt as though my heart was stopping - a very unnerving feeling. Long story short, after several months of specialist care and testing, I still had it continuously every.damn.day. and then one day, my youngest was giving me a hard time about going to bed so I picked her up and ran up the stairs with her... my calf muscles felt as though they would cramp every step and the next morning, my back was screwed. Best thing that ever happened to me! Honestly. Ordinarily, I would have just toughed it out until it subsided but we were going away for our long-awaited summer vacation and I wanted to enjoy it so I crossed my fingers and I called the chiropractor. This was mid July... (oh, the heart skipping had been going on since the previous September) On the very first visit, she asked me some questions - do you ever get cramping in your legs? Oh yeah all the time, sometimes it wakes me in the middle of the night. I just though it was a symptom of shift work. She recommended a Magnesium supplement and said it might help with my back... they just happened to have a bottle of it too at only $32 for 60 capsules! "Oh yeah", I thought, "here we go with the add-ons... as if you aren't making enough money off me already." Then something wonderful happened - on day two, I noticed my heart was normal and again on day three... she fixed my back within 4 days, my heart issue as well and as an added bonus, I rarely have a slight muscle cramp and I haven't been awakened with a cramp in the middle of the night since either. I haven't felt an extra beat since and I still take one 200mg capsule every day.
Magnesium Bisglycinate.
You really have to watch though because the supplement manufacturers are held to different labelling standards somehow. Even though it says "Magnesium Bisglycinate" or "Magnesium Glycinate" and 200mg on the front, if you look at the ingredient list, it may contain magnesium citrate, oxide or stearate (used to prevent clumping and does not provide any useable magnesium) and they don't print the ratios.
edit: I looked back on the blood work they did when the heart skipping was happening and my magnesium appeared in the "normal" range but to the low side. It wasn't obvious I guess.

Actively discouraging the selling of Bitcoin is part of the WO community culture. That is how I see it. Nobody is really going to care about if you sell part of your Bitcoin but we encourage each other to continue hodling because we are convinced of the continued rise in Bitcoin's value over time.
That is fair enough. I think that there are a considerable number of us who get to a point of sufficient accumulation or overacccumulation, then it seems that managing that status would involve some selling at various points along the way, yet without necessarily selling large parts of our stash, since we likely did not get into bitcoin merely to get back into various fiat related asset classes, yet if a longer term hodler might shave off 10% of his stash at some point to consume hookers, lambos, blow, and perhaps a yacht and a house on the Hamptons, then I cannot really see any problems with that... and surely many of us are more accepting of selling on the price rises and not selling on the dips, even if buying on the dips may or may not be taking place. Yet, still when we reach a sufficient status of accumulation and/or overaccumulation then it may not even really matter if such a longer term hodler shaves off some corn, even on the dips, since even on 60, 70 or 80% dips the profits still might be 20x, 50x or even higher, so even if it might well not be very good cashflow management and planning to be having to sell some portion of corn on such major dips, the longer term hodler is still in a decently good position to do whatever he wants, and even if he shaves off a bit of corn on a 70 or 80% dip, it is likely not even going to end up being any kind of major quantity of his holdings.
Even I am less new than some of the guys, yet during our dip in 2018-ish, the lowest point of the dip, I was still at 3.5x to 4x profits, and at the lowest point of the 2022 dip I was still 16x to 20x in profits, so perhaps any of our next major dips in 2026, 2027 -ish.. I may well still be in 80x or greater profits during those dips.. perhaps? We cannot really know, but there seems to be a certain level of liberty with higher levels of profits, even though there still may be some preferences to be selling on the way up rather than selling on the way down, that is in the event that we are going to need to sell or anticipate that we might need to sell at some point in the cycle.. and surely, it can feel a bit difficult to plan to sell some in advance, such as shaving off a few percent just to not have to worry, yet if we might sell too much at these lower BTC prices (shall I suggest sub $100k), then we might not end up selling any or hardly any if BTC prices are in the supra $150ks or even supra $250ks.., so maybe we might still be wanting to attempt to talk through our own dilemmas and/or to help guys to figure out for themselves how they might consider their own BTC portfolio management dilemmas... while at the same time, each guy has to consider his own balances, and some guys end up making mistakes along the way.. including I have surely made mistakes here and there along the way, yet at the same time, I am similar to several others of the ones here who are mostly erroring in on the side of accumulating and holding the cornz and just shaving some coins off at various points along the way, which truly seems to be quite an empowering position to be in.. regarding options and/or increasing options that bitcoin holding has tended to bring... including that the coin holders seem to be ongoingly benefiting from the ongoing wealth transfer that continues to take place right in front of us - while good to experience being on the receiving side of such ongoing and perhaps seemingly somewhat subliminal (while at the same time concrete) wealth transfer.

It sounded a bit strange to me to sell 2 years worth, and that was part of the reason that I was motivated to make a kind of hypothetical to try to make it seem like it makes sense, yet now you have disclosed some additional facts that make it even more complicated.. so I am thinking that I am just going to leave it.
Yes please, just leave it. We're all gentlemen here, we don't speak the size of other WO-members' stash.My previous post about me selling came off a bit douchery, I apologize for that.
With that said, my yearly expenses are probably less than most people here. I don't have any loans (including mortgage) or expensive hobbies.
Enough about me, I'm signing off. See you all when we reach ATH.
IMO you shared a HODLER story which are very cool and motivating for other people…. These kind of stories are a booster to many who are in the same space…
Also when someone trying to get in more detail etc never feel obligated to answer or respond sir
I like reading stuff as what you posted
Cheers
This is a good point, Dude. There is a balance in regards to how much any of us might choose to share, and sometimes we might even regret overly sharing... .. Once pieces of information are out there, then many of us (maybe I am more guilty of this?) will respond by extrapolating particulars and/or hypotheticals that may or may not exactly relate to the information that had been posted by the member, and some several of the ways that we learn is by getting into beating around some of the particulars of hypothetical and/or factual representations that may or may not come from the posts of other members.
Several of do not exactly agree what constitutes fuck you status and/or even how to potentially manage any kind of fuck you status that any of us might have had achieved in terms of bitcoin potentially providing us options in regards to the kinds and the amount of work that we choose to do, and surely there could be some of us who end up overly spending our BTC too soon and then end up thinking that we had entered into fuck you status, yet due to our own miscalculations, we end up having to go back to doing work that we might not have had wanted to do.
There may be others of us who are tending to be a wee bit too conservative in the quantity of our ongoing withdrawal from bitcoin (I am kind of thinking that I am fitting in this category for several years now, even though I do frequently post about various twists on the plot of sustainable withdrawal). Sometimes, I want to spend money and even to spend so much money that I am forced to dip into my bitcoin, yet even the spending of money can sometimes increase workload, and even when I sometimes try to get folks to help me out with the workload of spending money, I will find that there can be a decent amount of work to make sure that the person helping me is actually helping me in the direction that I believe that I would like to be helped.

I remember having powerful dreams when I began taking magnesium + zinc supplements (a doctor recommended them). The dreams were almost like feature-length movies, complete with plot, twists & turns and everything. I was looking forward to going to sleep, wondering what dream I would have.
I have now stopped taking supplements (trying to take my nutrients from natural sources), and the dreams have subsided. I still have them, but not as intense and complex as when I was taking the supplements. Or maybe I do have them, but can't remember them? It's interesting how a chemical change can affect you in different ways...

Interesting. Which type/form of zinc and magnesium and what was the dosage?
[...]
I used Solgar's products. Specifically these:
Solgar Magnesium Citrate (200 mg) Tablets -- 2/day = 400 mg
Solgar Zinc Picolinate (22 mg) Tablets -- 1/day = 22 mg
I felt quite good while taking them. Not sure if it was a placebo effect, but I did experience the lucid dreams very intensely. I stopped taking them, due to some of my blood test results being a little on the high side, like SGOT/SGPT (liver enzymes). This could actually be related to some intense physical training exercises I was doing at the time, so maybe the supplements were not to blame. I may start them again and repeat the blood test to see.
Supplements are easy to take, but can't really substitute natural nutrient sources. But, oftentimes, lifestyle choices/constraints make it difficult to eat healthily, so in many cases supplements are the only option. One vitamin I can think of that falls in this category is vitamin D3. Next time you do a blood test, ask for a vitamin D3 test. You may be surprised at the results!
I see. Zinc picolinate is a very available form of zinc. As i need tp take zinc on a regular basis, i switched to zinc-gluconate because picolinate was more expensive, but it's really effective. As for Magnesium, i don't tolerate Citrate well, i get the shits from a normal dose, as with all minerals bound to Citrate, as well as Citric Acid.
You might be right with the physical exercise issue: https://www.insidetracker.com/a/articles/muscle-damage-and-elevated-liver-enzymes
When taking supplements, there are some advices best to follow:
1. Supplements are just what they are: Supplements, not Substitutes. You take them with your normal (or special) diet, not in place of it.
2. Be aware of reciprocity. For example, Vitamin C blocks Selenium, so it makes no sense to take both at the same time.
3. Don't replace whats more efficient. You don't need to take tons of different extracted or manufactured enzymes and amino acids, just eat enough eggs, which contain most essential of them. Iron is hard to absorb, you need vitamin C and the right proteins to boost your iron blood level. Ditch the Supps, eat red meat.
4. Avoid megadosed Supps. What your body doesn't absorb gets flushed down the toilet and may even do harm. No need for 4000% RDA Vitamin B12 tabs, 100-150% RDA will do.
I boost Vitamin D3 through increased Calcium in my diet and regular exposure of my skin to the sun. The blood value was really low when i suffered from chronic fatigue, back then. I didn't tolerate any of the D3 supps, they gave me heartbeat arrythmia, stiff muscles with a strong tendency to cramp and finally tendon and joint pains.
Docs suggested lack of Magnesium, but in the end the Calcium and sunlight threatment was the only thing that worked for me.
Most people react the same to Supps, but some do differently. I think you were sensible to Magnesium. When i take Magnesium (Orotate or Gluconate) in the evening, my dreams are more intensive and memorable, too, but not so much like you described.
