Good way to get extra calories?? Provided you had access to one...

I could sure fucking use a IV drip, no appetite what so ever.
Damn Flu

HardHat87 said:I have thought about that myself, I just got over a 2 week stint of some nasty broncitus and the first week I didnt feel like eating at all. I also took 2 weeks off from training. I lost some weight, and was thinking on of those drips would be nice. Also if they had one of those pills that are a whole meal, like you see on movies set in the future. That would be great!
shortstack said:or you could get a nasal gastric tube and insert it everynight and put protien formula in there so your body wouldnt go catabolic at night. this would be great even when not sick.
indy69camaro said:Shortstack you just took it over the edge on that oneI can't help but gagging just thinking about the tube sliding down .......yuck !!! I like the premise though.
Gambino said:what is that bor?? if it is a aas of any sort then no...

Synpax said:Glad I can clear up some rampant ignorance here. Don't feel bad, I looked into this myself.
The only thing you can get is glucose. Not protein, not fat, not a slow carb - just pure sugar.

fireNwire said:TPN does have lipids, thats why its white. Can be customized though.
LOLshortstack said:no tpn is yellow, the lipids are the white.
Synpax said:Hmm. It seems I may have been wrong. I actually got my information from an RN initially, but it seems you can get other types of nutrition through an IV. See here:

shortstack said:you should have answered me questioniing your previous post, and i coulda told you that, lol.
i live on tpn and lipids for 2 months without any food whats so ever.
Synpax said:Yeah, silly me for not taking what a guy on an internet site who can't spell 'questioning' or 'whatsoever's advice on what is possible and safe to inject myself with.
j/k
FightinFit said:Also you would have to walk around with an IV needle in you all the time or you would end up with veins like a herione addict due to constant insertion.
PHit41 said:actually there is a form of semi-permanent IV. They have it right above ones chest near the heart. It is given to patients who are in the hospital for months/years. Pretty rad stuff. You could just do that but i dont think the blood pressure from lifting would help.

Gambino said:what do you mean? for medical reasons you do this?
shortstack said:damn you must be pretty wealthy with a 900 mg/week primo cycle.
