Thanks for sharing man. I still take it, usually 5 days a week. Been around a year now. No problems with side effects or anything. Amazing stuff. When I started lifting weights and walking more, I noticed its effects less.Hey @Tarmander
I have been using 12mg IVM every day for 4 days and I can relate very much to your experience. Since first dose. Absolutely amazing substance.
I get very similar effects of 1 or 2 drops Diamant transdermal. However IVM seems to be more gradual as it lasts more than 24hrs without ups and downs, and also seems to be more systemic prometabolic than Diamant which seems to be more only on the psychic part. Difficult to explain. But very similar anyway.
I will not take it every day just in case, I don't have enough information about its safety. But it is a wonderful substance. No doubt it.
I have used it in the hopes of curing some chronic cough I had since I got covid. Didn't help with that though.
Wanted to share this.
This is a great chart. Thanks.

Nope, haven't heard of thatTarmander, is there any insights that you're aware of on what the rare neurological complications of this drug are related to?
I've heard from one practionier that potentially if it's taken while there's parasites eggs in the body, it needs to be taken at the right time of their life cycle, otherwise it could eg. encourage eggs to hatch in the brain if they resided there. This is just one thing I've heard.
What are the theories of the mechanisms so far as to why its given you these benefits?
Ray has mentioned that Ivermectin is anti-inflammatory...What are the theories of the mechanisms so far as to why its given you these benefits?
It is quite safe in my opinion. I'm not sure what the energized part means.... The anti-inflammatory benefits are really quite nice, I just took some more Ivermectin paste this morning....I've been pondering of trying IVM, because I suspect parasites and bacterial dysbiosis have been plagueing me for who knows how long and causing me all kinds of issues.
In the first week of using cds, I saa a worm 2x....after that no more and I felt the cds wasn't working , in a good way, anymore.
I can't get the horse paste. I however have found someone who sells drops of 'energized IVM'.
Whatever the energized part means....would it be possibly worthwhile?
yes. I am actually going to be recording a new podcast about something I have been experimenting with for 8 months. Should come out maybe this weekend.@Tarmander I was curious what your daily diet/supplement/routine is lately? Any ground breaking things that have been helping you?
Won't really be about diet, but a new drug I have been testing.@Tarmander funny, i had it typed out asking you if you would do another podcast but i deleted it cause i didnt want to be pushy haha. I feel like my diet needs adjusted and i dont know where to turn. I'll be eager to hear what you have been eating!

While researching the mode of action of ivermectin against Demodex mites, which are associated with rosacea, apparently there are many bacteria that live alongside parasites. Ivermectin works by inhibiting proteins in their structure so they can't reproduce. Of course this is a crude explanation so, someone else may be able to elaborate...Woops....I'd read it wrong, it doesn't say energized....it's vitalised IVM, whatever that might mean.
I'm just kinda hesitant bc of other added ingredients in the paste, pills etc.
I also read on most sites that it gets rid of (parasitic) worms (not their eggs though), but what about other parasites and less favourable bacteria (sibo, libo)?

Ray Peat and others have commented on the anti-inflammatory actions of ivermectin and I'd like to know more about this mode of action...
@Tarmander has a lot of experience with regular use of ivermectin and there is an interesting thread that he started. He mentions the general feel of euphoria after taking it and I have to agree that I get this as well. My body and my face feel warm and cozy and I feel relaxed and calm. Bowel movements are increased but not in a flushing type of manner LOL. Every day I make sure to have a large carrot salad around 11:00 a.m. away from my breakfast and lunch.
Honestly I have never felt better. My skin is super smooth and glowy. My sleep is deep and refreshing.
You mentioned sibo. Four or five years ago I was vegan for a while and eating lots and lots of fibrous high volume foods. Along with some intermittent fasting and my belly started to bloat really bad after meals. It took years to deal with this issue, bringing back animals sources of food helped and smaller meals throughout the day helped... I did take a round of bactrim back then which I think helped me out a lot. But just cutting way back on fibrous vegetables and toning down my exercise and getting enough sleep has really helped.
That said, and I'm not trying to brag or anything, but in the six months or so since I have been taking Ivermectin intermittently, my stomach is so incredibly flat. I am a 45 year old mother of four and I actually have visible veins on my lower abs! No gas or bloating anymore. It's really a relief and I definitely think that pharmaceutical drugs have a place now and then even in the
"cleanest" lifestyles.
