I am pleased to announce that I only had one alcoholic beverage (vodka tonic) last night for New Years....it took some major self-control. Bro, my guess is you are probably fine if you just had a couple drinks. But I'd go to the doctor just to be safe. | ||

Good idea to see the Doc. You have to be very careful to listen to your body when using gear because steroids push your body to the extreme so your body cannot endure the abuse it usually takes before it reaches the breaking point. | ||

Keep in mind that water is necessary to replace the fluid your body loses every day when you breathe, go to the bathroom, and sweat. You should drink six to eight glasses of water or other liquids (including soups and other beverages) every day. Water is especially essential to the bodybuilder's diet. It helps to flush and rid the body of toxins, and aids in the digestion of protien. Additionally, if you are taking creatine while on gear, I would recommend drinking at least 1 gallon of water per day..minimum. Try to get in the habit of drinking 1 liter per day for good health! | ||

Try distilled water for a while. It might reduce the load on the kindeys a bit. (The universal solvent!) Make sure you get enough minerals (vitamin tab?)

Just a side note on the cranberry juice - one of my good friends is a doctor that did a study (in Rochester NY) and the cranberry juice is worthless if it is a sugary kind, the best kind is actually just crushed up crasberries b/c the stuff in it that does the trick is in the skin of the cranberries. So getting cranapple ocean spray isn't going to do much. Not that anyone said anything that would indicate that would help - I thought I'd add my two cents. And the "trick" that it does is that it reacts with your kidney and bladder wall to prevents salts and such from attaching and later getting kidney stones. It isn't any real miracle cure or anything, but it is good for that side effect and it is a tasty way to get some vit c and water as well. later | ||
