My experience with spermidine and autophagy

I have been playing around with spermidine for a few months now to see if i could actually feel a difference in my energy and skin. Since it is supposed to help with autophagy (the cell clean up thing) i was hoping it would help me feel less sluggish during my mid afternoon slump.

For me it seemed to actually work for my skin. It just looks a bit more glowy (maybe placebo but i like it) and i feel like my brain fog has cleared up a little ⚡ i have been taking about 5mg a day.

I am thinking about adding /peptides/rapamycin to the mix since it also hits that mTOR pathway for cellular recycling but i am kinda nervous about the side effects like mouth sores. Has anyone here tried cycling both together? I wonder if that is overkill or if they actually stack well for longevity. I just want to make sure i am not overdoing the autophagy side of things. Let me know what you guys think or if you have a specific cycle you swear by 🙂
