Buhner - Cognitive Dysfunction Protocol

Has anyone tried the Buhner cognitive dysfunction protocol? Specifically Huperzine A and Acetyl-L-Carnitine.

I tried some Huperzine A and found so far worse cognitive function and rear headache pain. Which I think is a good sign for a herx. I'm hoping to add Acetyl-L-Carnitine as long as I don't have any bad side effects from the Huperzine A.

i have been using Acetyl - N Carnitine for a long time now - for energy / fatigue as well as cognitive function - i belive it works for both by supplying adequate amino acid transporter molecules for the energy transport system into the mitochondria.

i have PEM - or used to have it much worse - and PEM is associated with issues with mitochondrial function - hence the mitochondrial support supplements
COq10, B vitamins, magnesium, vitamin C and a few other things are important here also

Sarah Myhill MD has a book on CFS being caused by mitochondrial dysfunction that goes into more detail on this
