Sure, I can tell you what worked for me in a private conversation.

What do you guys reckon to this NT factor supp...

It's a lot cheaper than the powder and has a greater variety of stuff in the Radio talks about such as B-vits and other mito support.
@Radio I have been taking 3 scoops (= 3 x 1.4 grams) daily of the NT Factor EnergyLipids Powder for three days now.
On the second day, although my sleep was a little restless, on waking up I noticed some general improvements from the NT Factor: I felt more calm, more content, and I felt like I was moving away from the ME/CFS of mind, and towards the normal state of mind I used to have before I developed ME/CFS. I felt more sociable and talkative than usual, for one thing, and my sound sensitivity was much reduced. So I was quite optimistic that NT Factor was already working.
However, on waking up on the third day (today) of taking NT factor, I felt much worse than normal: I felt an increased in mental numbness, and I felt pretty "spaced out" and unable to focus well mentally. Furthermore, my sound sensitivity and general sensitivity to stimuli were increased. I also felt much less sociable. I generally was in an unpleasant state.
So all the gains I made on the second day were reversed by the third day.
After going for a brisk walk today, things improved a bit.
Did you get any bad days like this when you first started taking NT Factor? Did you get these "spaced out" and mental numbness states?
If you look at its ingredients on the nutricology website here, you see that it does not tell you how much NT Factor is in each capsule (each capsule contains NT Factor Blend 1.3 grams, but how much NT factor is actually in that blend?).
I see. The ARG formula has 4grams of 'blend' compared to NutriCology's 1.3grams. I have emailed ARG to find out how much NT is in their blend and I will post back here when/if they reply.
I did not benefit from D-ribose. Dr. Sarah Myhill noted that taking D-ribose depend on the condition of the digestive system. She said that if the digestive system is fermentative that is, dominated by dysbiotic bacteria that ferment foods, D-ribose will not be helpful and in fact will feed these dysbiotic bacteria.Is there a reason you don't recommend D-Ribose in your mitochondrial repair?
I have tried everything...NT Factor and BodyBio PC are the most beneficial. Please watch this video...What us wrong with taking just straight up phosphatidylcholine?
Yes, I like BodyBio PC more and more these days. I actually ran as fast as could yesterday with out being sore the next day.@Radio do you still continue to take these 2 supplements now that you are well?
@Radio, I'm just watching the vid. I settled on taking choline as choline bitartrate. I notice that my compounding chemist sells this form. I've spent time trying to understand the differences between choline and phosphotidyl choline, but haven't really seen anything to suggest I'm taking the wrong sort. Do you have some understanding of this? thanks, ahmo
Same product as far as I know...@Radio have they changed the name for the BodyBio PC? One site says, BodyBio PC/ELyte and the other just BodyBio PC. The description is the same and so is the price so I'm assuming it's the same product. thanks
