STEP BY STEP AND ON THE PROCESS OF REMOVING THICKEN BLOOD

Using anabolic steroids is safe as you make it. Keep check on
blood work.
tep by step and video on the process of removing thicken blood
ESTOGEN GUY (I WILL TRY UPLOAD VIDEO LATER). TIME TO TRAIN.
WE ARE MORE THEN A PROVIDER. WE CARE ABOUT YOUR SAFETY. YOU
GOING TO DO IT. DO IT RIGHT. EVERYONE IS DIFFERNT. LISTEN TO
YOUR OWN SIGNS, DON'T BE A (SUPER FOURM HERO). EVERYONE ALWAYS
HAS A STORY?
Thick blood and testosterone – The last few blood tests I’ve had
Thick blood come back in the test results. I was able to
temporary fix this but during my cycle my mid cycle test came
back thick again (My Hemoglobin results 18.1) .
This is obviously an issue so I’ll be going over the next step
in getting this taken care of.
The obvious reasons for thick blood being an issue is blood
clotting and heart attack risk. This isn’t “normal” per say but
it is a very common side effect of using things like AAS and
being on TRT. This is why it is so important to get blood work
done and monitor yourself. These are things you will NOT feel.
This is why it is so important even If you feel great and look
amazing on the outside there may be things going on on the
inside you aren’t aware of that could be detrimental to your
health.
Below are natural things you can do to keep things like thick
blood at bay.
Drink LOTS of water! I’m at a min of a gal per day. While I’m on
cycle I try my hardest to get no less than 1.5 gal per day. Do
this and you’ll be half way there.
Take Omega-3 supplements. The dose usu*ally recommended to
prevent stroke and coronary disease is 1,000 mg daily of DHA and
EPA.
B vitamins. Numerous studies have shown that regular intake of
folic acid and other B vitamins can reduce the risk for ischemic
stroke by about one-fifth. Low levels of these vitamins can lead
to abnormally high levels of homocysteine, which damage blood
vessels. If you have elevated levels of homocysteine, use a
formula desig*nated on the label as a homocysteine formula that
includes folic acid and vitamins B-6 and B-12.
Vitamin E. Vitamin E is a natural blood thinner. Dose: 1,200
interna*tional units (IU) to 2,000 IU daily of a vitamin E
supplement. Look for a brand that says “mixed vitamin E” or
lists all eight tocopherols and tocotri*enols on the label.
Coated Aspirin. While this will not “fix” thick blood issues, it
is a blood thinner and reduce blood thickness, however this will
not change your hemoglobin number results. Daily does approx.
300mg
Blood donation for regulating thick blood
The following are steps you can take to regulate thick blood
issues that step beyond regular supplementation, water, and food
adjustments.
When you have adjusted everything you need to and still get
thick blood, DONATE IT!
This is a very common practice, and TRT patients can and do
donate as often as every 4 weeks.
This can be highly beneficial to ANYONE even if you are NOT a
user of AAS or Testosterone.
We all know those people that have panic attacks about their oil
change in their car, talking about how their car won’t perform
the same way or even break down, however never eat healthy,
exercise, drink much fluid or any water, just soda and total
junk, and countless other bad habits.
YOUR BLOOD IS YOUR OIL. CHANGE IT!!!
This is big. In my personal opinion everyone that can, should
utilize this free service. Especially for us older guys. We have
old oil pumping through our veins and it’s important to get rid
of it and replenish yourself.
THICK BLOOD, WHAT AM I LOOKING FOR?
When you are having your blood tested especially for TRT and AAS
users, the blood issue that is most common is high hemoglobin.
Normal ranges of hemoglobin will range from
MEN: 13.5 to 17.5 grams per deciliter (g/dl)
WOMEN: 12.1 to 15.5 grams per deciliter (g/dl)
High ranges will be is the ranges of hemoglobin will range
It’s not uncommon to have high ranges from 18 to 26
THIS IS HIGH BUT NOT UNCOMMON. OBVIOUSLY THE 26 IS IN THE HIGH
DANGER ZONE CATEGORY. THESE HIGH RISK PATIENTS TYPICALLY DONATE
EVERY 4 WEEKS
DONATING BLOOD. WHAT TO EXPECT.
Id highly recommend to actually speak to a representative if
this is your first time donating blood.
You will want to explain to them that you use testosterone.
This is generally what they will categorize you under.
Whole Blood Donation (If you use testosterone or AAS this will
be your only option. This simply means you are donating the
blood not filtering it.)
Category TT – meaning testosterone user. It is important to let
them know you are a user of testosterone. This prevents
accidental donation to a pregnant women. Blood donation to a
pregnant woman may have adverse effects on her child. Please be
honest even if you are using as a self-prescribed (non script)
user.
PRE APPOINTMENT TASKS.
After you set up your appointment they will send you pre
appointment PDF information for you to read. READ IT. IT’S EASY.
COMMON YOU GUYS….
You’ll most likely be asked to not fill out your history
questionnaire till the DAY OF THE APPOINTMENT.
If this is your first time you’ll only need your ID and
paperwork you filled out. This will have a electronic signature
and they WILL know if you filled it out previously so if you
have done that, they will just make you fill it out again so
just follow the rules. After you have donated the first time,
you’ll be given a donor number or donor card. You’ll need to
bring both for future appointments.
EAT LOTS AND LOTS OF FOOD AND DRINK TONS OF WATER PRE
APPOINTMENT!
Not to scare anyone but you may have a bad reaction to the
donation if you have not had adequate food and water. I
personally had a bad reaction this past time even though I had
had 3 meals already BUT they were very lean meals. BIG MISTAKE.
I highly recommend if you have a cheat day save it for your
donation day and eat BIG. You’ll thank me later. That being said
there were at least 9 other people in the room donating and no
one else had a bad reaction at all.
You will lose about a gram of sodium when donating so eat tons
of salted peanuts, fries, burgers, whatever. I have heard people
say that you shouldn’t eat fatty foods pre appointment, HOWEVER
after my last visit they did confirm that is wrong information
that I should have eaten as much junk as possible pre
appointment. Just a heads up.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN ONCE I ARRIVE AT MY APPOINTMENT?
Once you arrive you will need to check in.
Have your paperwork with the printed off scanner bar code so
they can scan it and see when you filled out your history. IF
you did this on your phone they can scan the phone as well.
You will have a one on one with a nurse and they will ask you
questions pertaining to your history, check your paperwork, and
go over questions about the blood donation.
They will take your blood pressure. (Please do not have a bunch
of coffee or energy drinks prior to your appointment. They
cannot and will not let you donate with elevated blood pressure)
They will take a sample of blood (much like a diabetes test).
This is to test your hemoglobin numbers.
If all things are go, they will take you to the floor for you
blood donation.
The actual sit time while donating is approx. 10 to 15min.
After the donation is complete. They will ask you to stay while
they monitor you for 15min. this is only to make sure you do not
have a negative reaction after donation.
During you monitoring post donation time they will give you
juice, cookies etc. to get you blood sugar back up.
Appointments last approx. 1 hour from arrival, pre testing,
donation, and post donation 15min monitoring.
HOW WILL THIS IMPACT MY HEMOGLOBIN NUMBERS?
You can expect a significant drop of about 1 to 1.5. Over time
if you are doing everything else to stay healthy (Lots of water
etc.) and you continue donations, you can float your hemoglobin
numbers at very healthy levels of 13 or even below as reported
by the nurse staff.
HOW LONG WILL THIS IMPACT MY HEMOGLOBIN NUMBERS?
Unfortunately with TRT users this is not a onetime fix. As you
monitor your blood work you may or will see your hemoglobin
numbers rise again. You will need to continue to do what you can
naturally with food, supplements, and lots of water, AND
continue to donate your blood. This will keep your numbers at
reasonable levels.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DONATE?
Depending on your situation there are a few options.
If you are “self medicated” your option is maximum every 8 weeks
(Free Service).
If you have a doctor script for testosterone this will depend on
your doctor. If your doctor thinks it necessary he or she may
write you a script for therapeutic blood donation as often as
every 4 weeks. There usually is a fee attached to this process
so if you can get away with it and keep your health and numbers
in check you can opt for the every 8 to 10 week donation (Free
Service)
WRAP UP
At the end of the day the things we put into our bodies affect
us in ways we can necessarily see on the outside. It’s important
to keep on top of and monitor the most important thing we have,
our bodies. We can get a different car, a different place to
live, different electronics, yet so many people are pre occupied
with maintaining those less important tasks while ignoring the
biggest gift they have every been given, The most complex
machine in the world, their own human body.
And one more thing. This isn’t just about an “oil change” unless
you have a unique situation THEY CAN USE YOUR BLOOD TO HELP
SOMEONE ELSE. So do something good.

I gave blood week before last and 3 days later tried to spar.
Gassed out like I have not gassed in years. I am always high
normal with my hematocrit. I went through a phase where I cooked
with cast iron and it went up. that is all I can think.

I refuse to donate based off thick blood. It does ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING for me. Unless I was to donate every week, it will just
return to where it was. Here is my protocol that takes me from a
hematocrit in the high 50's (57-58) and hemoglobin over 20 to
around a 51 and 17 in about 60 days.
2000 mg of citrus bergamot am/pm
4000 fu nattokinaise am/pm
Cut out all vitamin C supplementation. Only vitamin C from food.
Cut out all red meat and other high iron foods (cereal grains).
Stop using cast iron for cooking.
Switch TRT from 100 mg 2x a week to 20 mg a day.
I have used this for clients as well and had similar results.
