Is NT is just a brand of the few Natural Factors available?

What is it?

What does it do?

thanks

Here's a thread where this was asked about (you actually started the post a few years ago). I found it when I went searching for a product explanation. :

Ive been using this stuff for about 4 months now.
/www.amazon.com/Allergy-Research-Group-FactorsTM-Energy/dp/B0096TQ7AI/ref=sr_1_1_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1496082571&sr=1-1&keywords=nt+factor
According to burrascano:

8. NT-FACTOR
This product addresses the mitochondrial damage thought to underlie the metabolic dysfunction associated
with chronic diseases which, in patients with tick-borne illnesses, is manifest by fatigue and neurologic
dysfunction. It is the single most reliable agent I have found that can give noticeably increased energy levels.
When supplements known to support neurological function are added (see below), improved cognition and
memory often result. Effects will be noted in two to three weeks. It also contains high quality prebiotics and
probiotics. Available from Researched Nutritionals"

Why do I take it? Cuz burrascano said so. Has it helped? Maybe, my fatigue has improved a great deal in 4 months but it's hard to say how much nt factors have helped.

What I can say unequivocally helps my fatigue is "Adreset" by metagenics. Oddly enough, it's about $15 cheaper to buy from my llmd than from Amazon.
/www.amazon.com/Metagenics-ADRES180-Adreset-180-Capsules/dp/B0006IIAI0/ref=sr_1_2_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1496083027&sr=1-2&keywords=adreset

I took d- ribose for a while and it seemed to help some as well. The d- ribose and nt factors target mitochondrial function whereas adreset is adrenal support.

Trav-

Ha ...how funny. My memory (not so funny)!

Wish links to our own posts could be stored somewhere.

This was brought up briefly in a recent post.

thanks

BJD55 - So is that TM factor the same as NT? (the link wont work)

Looks like this is it :"Allergy Research Group - NT FactorsTM Energy Lipid Powder 150g" - 120 servings for $54
How many servings a day?

Tried Adreset in the past- reved me up too much. I think Rhodilia does that to me.

Tried d- ribose, nothing noticable, supposed to help with ATP energy process.

Astro, I fixed the link for nt factors on amazon.

As for the adreset, oh yeah, it revved me up waaaay too much at the dose my llmd Rx'd; 2 pills per day. I told him about this reaction he said I could take it "homeopathically" ie: a tiny bit in applesauce.

So I got me a handy dandy measuring spoon set in graduated sizes from 1/64 tsp up to 1/4 tsp. I restarted at 1/64 tsp per day and have titrated up now to 1/8 tsp and so far so good. I've done this over a 3 week period. Its about finding that edge and working with that.

I've had similar issues with ashwagandha and rhodiola before but never thought to try micro dosing.

BTW, how are your workouts coming along?

- So...this dosing was for the NT or the Adreset? Was wondering how much NT you take since this label says 120 servings - sounds like a lot for $54 vs other brands.

I leveled out my weights for now to do some more hands on muscle/tendon repair work. I go in spurts, play it be ear, change things up a little after a while.

Still cant get my arse in gear without coffee. I slept a lot this holiday with extra days off. The more I sleep, the more I want to keep sleeping. Slept a record 11 hrs last night - I think that makes a lot of people groggy though, not just me- opposite effect of past anxiety and no sleep LOL.

Yeah I've been catching up on sleep too. It's sooo nice. I'm lucky to get a 6 hour cat nap.

NTFactor is a patented formula, you could probably Google Scholar it and find exactly what's in it.

NTFactor is not just one single product or brand.

My experience: it's essential. I notice more energy when taking it, along with an Alive Multivitamin (similar prebiotics, enzymes, probiotics, vitamins) and colostrum if I'm able to afford that too. I think it helps with rebuilding after abx damage, myelin sheath rebuilding and ATP mitochondrial energy which is important because that's every cell. (Glutathione will drain toxins from every cell or antioxidize pretty much all systems, NTFactor will rebuild and provide the proper signalling and energy to those damaged cells, I think most systems).

I'm a little out of my depth but that's how I understand it.

Two supplements I wouldn't want to be without are NTFactor and a super high quality multivitamin like Alive High Potency Mens. Especially after a tear with Lyme n Co and Banderol/Samento post battle aftermath.

Thats what can be confusing, as I now know - NT Natural Factor is a branded/patented ingredient / compound sold to other supplement companies that re-sell it in there own branded "energy" supplements.

Kind of like Sun Theanine is used in other brands too.

Mitochondria supps never did much for me before, but this NT stuff I never tried. Colostrum, D-ribose, many different mito $pecific vitamins - did nothing for energy.

My days of the past with three hrs of sleep (about 15 years) I felt like a walking zombie. I feel for those still like that, laying awake in bed for 5 hrs a night really sucked.

That's adreset dosing I'm talking about.

For NT factor, I mix 2 scoops of the nt factor into my pea protein shake every day. The nt factor isn't dramatic for me. If I feel anything at all, it's subtle over an extended period of time.

Glad you're sleeping well. Zzzzzzzzzzzz. I eagerly await the day I can sleep a solid 8 hours again. Averaging 6 hours nowadays.
