Low-dose rapamycin once a week – what have you noticed?

I decided to try low-dose rapamycin after reading about its mTOR inhibition and autophagy effects. I took 4 mg once a week for six weeks, keeping a simple log of sleep, energy, skin texture and recovery after my usual training sessions. For me it seemed to give a bit less afternoon fatigue and my muscles felt a tad less sore after workouts, though tbh that could easily be placebo or just better sleep on those nights.

I didn’t notice any major side effects – just a mild sore spot in my mouth after the second dose that went away in a day. I got basic bloodwork before and after (fasting glucose, lipids, liver enzymes) and everything stayed within my usual range.
