My DAV* Therapy begins! *Doxycycline, Azithromycin and Vitamin C

I hear you and I’m tempted to agree with you. However, I think we should not become so sensitive at a point where people will think twice before they share their stories/experiences. I for once I have absolutely no problem with people different point of view and don’t even care even if they are rude to me.
So as far as me, go ahead and use every single insulting word there is in the dictionary (if it makes you feel good)LOL but don’t expect me to reciprocate. The worst that will happen is, it will get me to chuckle. By same talking, I will not shy away from saying how or what I feel about a subject that comes up on these boards. As a side note (and for kicks) a while back being in a corporate board meeting, and one of the members who was known to be a mushy guy said to me (before he was about to oppose what i proposed), well I’m sorry that what I’m going to say is going to hurt your feelings, but bla…bla… I laughed pretty hard and said “DUDE YOU’LL HAVE TO RUN an 18-WHEELER OVER MY BODY IF YOU WANT TO HURT MY FEELINGS, AND EVEN THEN I WOULD STILL LIKE TO THINK MY FEELING WILL BE FINE(MY BODY PROBABLY NOT)”.

MORAL OF THE STORY BE NICE, BE RESPECTFUL, BUT SAY WHATEVER YOU LIKE, AND ABOVE ALL BE A DAMN MAN and or a woman.:slight_smile: .

Generally, speaking I agree with admin’s moto of “hard on science, easy on people”.

But he grilled some bloke for botching my pronouns so… :laughing:

Most of the comments made here about the ‘DAV’ protocol were the opinions of some ppl who basically googled a study and commented based on there interpretation and ideas of the studies.

Most comments made were not relevant to the actual academic study😂.

I am guessing the majority of folks on this forum are not scientists but are simply part of this human scientific project!

It’s not about hurt feelings it’s about the BS of some members comments that make no sense only noise and they know who they are! :clown_face:

Looks like safety has been proven for a few, except for some gut microbiome issues for one. But what do we expect from the regimen? If the mechanism of action is senolytic, then we can compare with other anecdotal evidence of senolytics. Below is a sampling of personal experience from members of the age reversal forum, after taking fisetin.

  1. I saw an immediate 20-25 % increase in my chin ups and pull ups which was quantifiable; and great improvement in my color vision which I cannot quantify. Age 82

  2. My muscles in general are firmer and overall strength is amazing. My mind is clear, thinking concise and dynamic. I feel more dominant, self confident, and aggressive. Libido is enhanced as well. Another effect is the firming up of muscles. And the first place I noticed strength and activity was in the thighs. Age 43

  3. I have also experienced what previously have been expressed in this thread, That my legs have had more strength and I have had a light and energetic mental state, almost feeling a bit euphoric. but that have been 3-4 days after the treatment. I feel it coming today. Three days after the treatment. It also increased libido.

Could be placebo. But if some supplement could make me believe in growing back my scalp hair, I’ll start immediately.

Hope to hear about results soon.

Why are you pausing Rapa during your DAV period?

BTW, As I said earlier i stopped DAV after one week because DOXY was giving uncomfortable upper stomach pain, but also wanted to add I felt bloated a bit, and seemed like I wasn’t digesting food as good as before. So there will definitely be no DAV for me going forward. I will however use sparingly AZI (if I get an infection) since my body handled AZI way better than DOXY, I even got some anti-inflammatory effect in days I used AZI. Weirdly enough for me DOXY seemed the opposite-felt as if it was causing perhaps a bit of inflammation, but definitely not anti-inflammatory.

Mogil, was the doxycycline in capsules or tablets?

And which type, doxycycline hyclate or monohydrate: doxycycline?

Made me go and grab it… It is doxy hyclate, it is a brownish color (yellow inside if you break it) longish tablet , from India. I think it says manufactured in india by Vikram Labs.

FWIW, I have been talking capsule, generic doxy hyclate purchased from a local(US) pharmacy

"Capsule is imprint D76, is Blue, Capsule/Oblong and is identified as Doxycycline Hyclate 100 mg. It is supplied by Zydus Pharmaceuticals (USA) Inc.

Manufactured in India, by Cadila Healthcare Ltd.

My DAV Therapy/Protocol is ending on Wednesday the 31th of October.

The only change I realize s less knee joint pain.

Have had no “side effects”

Just finished one week on the DAV protocol.
Probably too early to tell much, but so far zero negative side effects.
Two subjective positive effects which may be just coincidental at this stage are;
Improved skin condition. I don’t have acne, but my face just looks smoother and better overall in the mirror.
At the end of the week, I just feel really great. Again, may be a coincidence or placebo effect, but I am happy so far.

The only thing I can say for certain that is different after 16 days is that my weight is down a little bit without changing my diet or exercise. I’m not sure if it’s good or bad really or even if it’s due to DAV but I haven’t changed anything else. I really want to finish this out though so I’m going to increase my calories a little bit.

Ended my DAV therapy today, a couple of days early as my pills ran out.
I have been using 4mg Rapamycin weekly as usual, plus Taurine in the mornings and glycine in the evenings, and a huge amount of other good stuff.
No side effect from the DAV at all.
After starting with Rapa, and Taurine my muscle recovery after exercise has been good, but combined with DAV it has been outright excellent. I can play tennis for 2 hours 3 days in a row without acing, the last time I could do that was 30 years ago when I was 23 years old. My joints and muscles just feels excellent right now.
I will do this DAV therapy once a year or whenever I feel the need for it. Two thumbs up from me.
