Thread: Eat eggs with your bananas.

I also heard that the yolk of the egg contains choline, I think.

Huh. Interesting, I don't know much about choline but I do know it helps with neuro-transmition

if only that combination tasted good together

You're right in every aspect of that. Check out the Lucid Aid repository

sweeet

eggs. This should supply your body not only with more tryptophan but also many other amino acids

like glutamate (a neuro-transmitter), Aspartic acid (Also a neuro-transmitter), and glutimine. That

can help with mental function and ultimatly give you a better chance of having a lucid dream.



Now im not too sure about this last part but I think tea would also be benificial because it contains

theanine which is yet another amino acid.

Sorry to disprove you, but it is not the tryptophan in the bananas, it is the vitamin b6

And yes, tea does contain fairly large amount of theanine.

Aparently Eggs also contain B5 to go with that Choline

Bananas don't have tryptophan in them, the eggs do The reason B6 works at all is because it aids in the metabolism of tryptophan into serotonin, so if you have no tryptophan then the B6 does nothing.

Thats what I am saying, " its NOT the tryptophan in the bananas, its the b6"

Oh, I misread the original post.

Actually, eggs don't have very much tryptophan in them, it would be best to have turkey or cheese. Make a turkey cheeseburger.

Damnit! Banana's hurt my teeth, not because of the coldness, but something in them just makes my teeth hurt. Can someone give me some help here? I want to eat Banana's before bed goddamnit!

Uhh, the parts that cause the lucid dreaming are the B vitamins. Just take an assorted B complex and you'll get the same result

Examples please?

One-a-days Men's Health formula.

You could also superload your B intake by buying each individually, you can get them at any pharmacy.

Not to sound dumb but, "One-a-days Men's Health formula", are you serious?

Yeah, I'm serious, I'm looking at it right now

300% B12
150% B6
80% Niacin (B3)
100% Folic Acid (B9)

Anything that's similir that doesn't requite me going to the chemist or anything? Those places make me feel un-independent. Like, any foods that have the LD'ing stuff or anything?

Is chocolate better? And does Toothpaste do anything bad?

Gnc's "Big 100" B-complex100 has:

b-1 100mg
b-2 100mg
Niacin 100mg
b-6 100mg
Folic Acid 400mcg
b-12 100mcg
Biotin 100mcg
Pantothenic Acid 100mcg
Choline Bitartrate 100mg
Inositol 100mcg
Para-Aminobenzoic Acid 30mg

They also have the "Big 150"

Really those amountsmay be alot for your daily recomended value to live and function properly, but the amount of that stuff we take in the dream world is much... much bigger. For example 250mg of B6 is 10256% of your daily value . "Once a day mens" isn't gunna help much.

Ps. I get it Its the B6 inthe banana, hosest mistake. Though you should really be focusing on the key point of this topic which is in fact the part about the eggs. But if it helps, here, I apoligize for making a mistake after all my other research. If it makes you happy

i've read that chocolate works. especially the powdered chocolate that you mix in milk to make chocolate milk, althought it's never really worked for me.
