AP Resensitization Protocol?

I couldn't find this mentioned in other threads definitively. I"ve noticed AP/PSlin just aren't as effective as they used to be. I took a PSlin with my usual meal last week and didn't get the same "hungry" feeling towards the end of my meal, so I've decided to take some time off the products.

It is possible to get desensitized/adapt to AP and PSlin (correct?). So how long should one take off the products if they start noticing diminishing effects; I was thinking 1-2 weeks. I've been off for 5 days (only 1 dose total) and was thinking of doing 10-15 days.

If you've taken time off, share your thoughts on how long it took and if you noticed the benefits afterwards.

It's like getting hooked on something, and you're tolerance just starts building up. Then things start getting expensive. Double dosing PSlin would cost you over $2/serving! I'm just looking for feedback on how to regain iAP' efficacy since I know some USP Labs members have been on this product longer than myself.

I dont know if we have a exact protocol or not. I have never heard of one. I usually take 2 weeks off every 6-8 weeks. This seems to help quite a bit.

Mullet may be able to shed more light on this.

Sorry!

I usually recommend simply tightening up your diet for a few weeks, slightly lower, more complex carbs upon Anabolic-Pump cessation.

It's a good excuse to use the Na-RALA NutraCaps I bought. Quite impressed actually, 2 caps and I'm starving.

You dosed AP on an empty stomach in the morning and got hungry 15 minutes later? I usually wake up hungry


As for how I'm liking the Na-R-ALA NutraCaps, I'm taking 2 about 10 minutes before my meal which has about 80g complex and 20g simple sugars. 1 caps for half the carbs. I'm clearly using it to enhance the insulin effect, and I'd say the effects are similar to what I noticed with PSlin when I started using it. After my 2 weeks hiatus, I will be able to give a comparison to some PSlin/AP (Whenever I get some more, I hear bulk will be getting to NP this week probably)
