I didn't read the entire thread, so I don't know how much it was touched on. I believe Steve said something about this in one of his posts (somewhere, but I didn't go through all 12 pages lol). Alcohol offers some health benefits. If you aren't straining your liver too much, a glass of wine can actually really help with thinning the blood amongst a few other things. I just wouldn't want to touch ANY alcohol while using orals. But I've heard multiple doctors say just a glass of wine 1-3x/week or so can really help with thinning the blood of someone on AAS (which if you've used EQ, you know about that). I personally haven't done that while on a cycle though.
But again, I personally wouldn't ever touch alcohol if I was on orals. Period. (And never used alcohol at all while on cycle).
I used to drink a lot when I first went to college... But eventually I had so many HORRIBLE hangovers that I just couldn't do it anymore. I completely stopped and never regretted it. I RARELY ever drink (maybe 1-3x the entire year, if even), and when I do its never more than 2 drinks. Generally something like single malt scotch (has to be good quality though) with 2 ice cubes, gin and tonic, etc, or something along those lines. But that's only off-cycle too. I pretty much entirely stopped drinking several years before I started using anabolics.
Can you Say Yellow Jaundice - i.e. (looking like a Very Shiny Yellow Banana, and Peeing Ice Tea), Sounds like Fun, Yippee !!!
That I didn't know and that is some scary shit right their.
What about the urban legand that drinking on roids makes you fight in bar at the trop of a hat??I don't believe it too be true myself but does the 2 accelerate violence?
What?! I guess some people will use it as an excuse to be a total fucking dick, but I have yet to meet someone that just wants to go and get into bar fights at a drop of the hat because they're on steroids. I think that's just total fucking BS. Tren obviously makes people easily aggravated and what not, but I seriously have yet to see someone just get into a bar fight because they're on steroids.
whats even more scary is the number of people right now just in the US who are on liver transplant lists from drinking alcohol. I'm the most empathetic person out there but i'm sorry but if you drank yourself into needing a new liver I don't think you deserve to be on the list at all. those livers should go to those who actually need them like children
also alcohol is the #1 reason for hospital ER visits. anabolic steroids are like #267
yet you can walk into a drug store and get alcohol but anabolic steroids are mostly illegal or you need a prescription.. go figure
Yeah exactly. More people go to the hospital every year for too much salt or vitamins than steroids. Yet steroids are "oh so dangerous" and illegal. Total BS.
You want to See Scary.
After my Brother-in-Law had his Liver Transplant, I went to see Him, didn't know if He would Survive (10 Hour Surgery).
I've been in Hospitals a Whole lot over the years.
Friends with Heart Valve Replacement, my Father with Lung Tumor Surgery.
I've never in my Life, seen so many Tubes and Machines, keeping Him alive, medicated, and fed.
They had a Drip Tube in His Nose going to His Stomach for Feeding.
That's why I don't Joke when it comes to any Organ Health while on a Cycle.
Ladies and Gentlemen, you only get one Go Around, make it count, and Do Your All to Stay Healthy.
Don't let a Foolish Decision made while your Young cost you your Health as you get Older................. JP
True as fuck man. I would HATE to have a terrible life as I got older because of alcohol (or any other horrible substance for that matter).
I'm going to agree with everyone as well. i won't be a hypocrite. i do have those occasions when i get hammered. never on cycle tho. and never "just because". i wait till i do my annual vacation in mexico and do one or two days of non stop drinking. when i get home i don't bother. been there done that. drinking at home or going to some shitty pub or night club is just plain boring anyways. and have 3-4 beers "just because" makes one already sound like an addict. why bother spending all the money on gear if your going to waste it. and also if you can't give up drinking for the tiny amount of time out of your life to be healthy then, well... i don't know how to be nice about it
That's vacation bro, plenty of people here do that. That's not bad at all. And you're off your cycle anyways. So I wouldn't worry about being a hypocrite. They're just talking about getting plastered on cycle and shit.
Hell, you'd have to be crazy to go to Cabo or somewhere like that for vacation and NOT do a little drinking! And yeah... Everyone I know that just drinks 3-4+ drinks/night "just because" is DEFINITELY an alcoholic (or extremely close to becoming one).
Also, I agree. That money can be FAR better spent in other areas of life. Why waste it on something that will make you feel like total fucking shit the next day? And I never understood how some people could be like "BRO WE GOT SO PLASTERED LAST NIGHT! IT WAS AWESOME!" even though they don't remember.
