Donating plasma
ad
So over the past.. 6 months I've donated plasma twice a week. I'm on trt and have been cycling during this time, it actually pays my supplement regime. I've made great progress, actually gained fourth pounds my last bulk but I was wondering if this has hindered my gains in any way? I'm sitting here now actually wondering if I s hould stop coming. I'm on my cut so I want to maintain as much as possible.

Omg! I used to work at a plasma center. Do not do not do not donate on cycle. It can be Very dangerous! They remove PLASMA, the liquid portion. Stroke, heart attack, clots, etc. Water water water if u do. Plus, the reason plasma is so useful is the fractions (proteins) that reside in the plasma. A few of which are very vital to muscle growth and they'll never tell u this but it does I repeat DOES lower your immune system! Plus the goal is to keep blood plasma level stable and saturated with aas so if plasma is removed?, then they obviously won't be stable because you're losing the plasma and the juice contained. Not worth it to me.
Juice contained in the plasma isn't true. I'm on trt and have my blood ran every other week by my doc. My testosterone is almost always right on, if shifted at all its only slightly. If the is a dip in serum blood concentrate then it must not be for long. I actually had my blood ran last week the day after donating.
Unfortunately I know for a fact it does, now for how long I don't know. When screening donors for meds, hormone replacement therapy(trt) is a concern because plasma is a direct carrier of hormones. Juice in plasma is a concern and reguardless of how small, its a waste imo.
Wow hmm. Maybe taking a prop shot directly after would help? This is a huge concern. I never thought of that
Yea, that's not a bad idea. Or tne if u got it
Wardi77Are you a student by any chance? lol $50 a week for donating aint bad at all haha. Anyways, when your on a cycle your plasma enzyme levels are actually increased. These enzymes are normally what plays a role in erythropoiesis which is where the vascularity can come from when on some gear like EQ, or Primobolan, Fina etc. When you go to get the plasma removed they separate the red and white blood cells and cycle it back into your blood. What you should be aware of is that when they remove these plasma enzymes. You are at risk of being shorted on the transport factor, meaning when your plasma levels are low unlike some one not on a cycle. Your liver, intestines, kidneys now lose their transporters to help alleviate the proper detoxing or proper oxygen support that some plasma levels carry out a need for. Example in the make up of your cells you have 7 different types of cells and cell fragments. They remove granulocytes, and leukocytes which together have 5 different fragments. Okay this may not make any sense to you so lets cut to the bottom line. Because your blood levels will be missing cells and fragments that play a role in transporting hormones,toxins and oxygen to and from the kidney, liver, and intestines. You should really make sure your taking some things to keep those organ healthy. milk thistle is great for the liver there is a product called liv-52 which combines milk thistle and a few other herbs to detox and keep normal levels. CRANBERRY EXTRACT is excellent for the kidney and it repairs as well as detox's. and a good B-complex 100mg per day is essential for the formation and oxygen supply to the blood and all organs. You really should be on all of this anyways while on cycle but if not get on if your going to be donating plasma. You may want to google the whole plasma thing and see how it relates to steroid use and what can change your blood levels and your RH factors. Hey if I ever need a kidney or liver can I buy one of yours jk. Good Luck and research.
good info right here bud. +1 from me
Between me and the wife it's $130 a week lol but will it affect gains?
Wardi77Shit thats a pretty decent gas money on the side scheme lol. As far as affecting gains I cannot say yes or no as I have never experimented with the idea of donating while cycling. Plasma is mostly water but also contains minerals and proteins, transports So the same your pumping into your body and want the most of , you'll just be giving it right back. Not a Smart Idea IMO. Plus they suggest not working out the same day , for the fact that there is a huge hole left in your vein which when enlarged during the "pump" ruptures. It takes like 2 days to naturally replenish what you just sucked out of your body. You want your blood flow to be full throttle while training, that totally defeats the purpose.
