I've been taking bac somewhat inconsistently for the past month with mixed results. Bac alone has cut down on my willingness to say, drink two margaritas because the side effects are horrendous the next morning. However, even on bac, once I get the ball rolling it doesn't affect my willingness to become drunk. I just drink a little less.
A few months ago I experimented with L-glut (3000 mg divided into two doses) with some good results. Where I would usually drink 4-5 Sierra Nevadas a night, the l-glut made me unable to finish the third one. I felt no desire to continue drinking and just felt "full".
Today I took 60 mg of Bac in three doses and 3000 mg of l-glut in two doses. Here's what happened:
It did not fend off my urge to open up a drink at 1:00 (as my drinking has worsened, the "witching hour" has gotten earlier and earlier in the day). What it did do was slow and reduce my intake considerably. Between 1:00 and 6:00 I drank 2.5 beers and sustained a pretty comfortable buzz for the entire duration. This is somewhat remarkable, as whenever I start that early in the day with no one around my drinking can easily escalate to 5-8 beers.
Here's my theory (in unquantified, unscientific terms to be taken with a grain of salt): the bac intensified the effects of the alcohol, causing it to go further and slow my intake while the l-glut made me feel "full" at 2.5 drinks. Off both I drink in repeat fashion until I go to bed (a euphemism for passing out). On bac alone I drink about half what I usually do because my tolerance is dropped. On L-glut alone I drink in repeat fashion until I hit 2.5-3 drinks and get full. The combo CONSIDERABLY reduced both my rate of intake and volume of intake.
Has anyone else tried this combo? I know that my bac dose is nowhere near a switch dose, but the l-glut seems to be making a nice adder until I ramp up. Thinking ahead, once I hit the switch I could maintain the L-glut dose with a lower bac dose for convenience and cost effectiveness.
