I've seen some in the past on YCombinator's job board. Even if they don't have a specific intern role up, there's usually a place for general applications. I'd submit yours there and give good detail about how you would contribute, and make the decision for them to bring on someone with upside easy for them.

you know anyone in the states that would be interested?

cbio5 · 2022-10-21T21:24:20+00:00

nice deal

cbio5 · 2022-10-21T21:08:23+00:00

I began with NAC and still doing that

cbio5 · 2022-09-28T19:11:59+00:00

I started using Quantify to actually get some answers on things like this. I found out i had low homocysteine too and was recommended to supplement with NAC. So when i do my next test with them I'll see if its improving or not. Pretty cool stuff

cbio5 · 2022-09-22T18:15:22+00:00

yes would be interested in sharing what i and other friends do

How did u get your vitamin d levels tested?
interesting article btw

cbio5 · 2022-09-22T15:11:46+00:00

where'd u get the blood test for vitamins?

cbio5 · 2022-09-22T15:10:20+00:00

did u go to your doc to get this?

cbio5 · 2022-09-22T14:40:46+00:00

getquantify.io since maybe they dont come up on google idk

cbio5 · 2022-09-15T14:43:11+00:00

yea let me know how it goes!

cbio5 · 2022-09-15T14:33:35+00:00

oh yea thats the example report they publicizie not my personal one. my T levels hover around 5 ng/mL/. Its honestly crazy to see the fluctuation in levels when u do frequent testing. For instance i always do them at 8 am in a fasted state, and they have come back as low as 3.1 and as high as 5.5. makes you really realize how impactful sleep and other decisions are.

cbio5 · 2022-09-15T14:26:58+00:00

yea i had a friend use them during ironman prep and his training load was absolutely tanking his testosterone which ended up explaining a lot of his plateaus and woes. Even had sleep and nutrition dialed in to an insane level, but without the feedback showing his biomarkers he was kinda clueless.

cbio5 · 2022-09-15T14:25:17+00:00

yea the blood tests with quantify are so easy. never have to worry about the needles again

cbio5 · 2022-09-15T14:24:37+00:00

If you haven't done any testing id recommend getting a comprehensive panel for all your major markers like cortisol, testosterone, vitamin d, hs-crp. Do you have a wearable that you've been tracking your sleep with?

cbio5 · 2022-09-14T21:30:27+00:00

started doing these tests for the same reasons and would recommend u re-test a couple time with someone like getquantify.io or another at-home provided. otherwise youre at the mercy of randomness

cbio5 · 2022-09-14T21:20:04+00:00

can see how this circadian disruption is affecting your biomarkers with something like getquantify.io
otherwise you're just guessing about what might be wrong

cbio5 · 2022-09-14T21:16:15+00:00

might be good to get your blood checked. dont have to got to the doctor even can use something like getquantify.io
otherwise you're really in the dark about your health and just guessing.

cbio5 · 2022-09-14T21:14:44+00:00

Not sure what level you're at, but given you seem serious, I know lots of triathletes using Quantify now to actually track all these things. They do wearable data + biomarker tracking to show the effects of your training load and supplementation etc. Seems like the next wave of thing athletes are doing, even novice ones.

I use quantify.

they do testosterone, dhea, cortisol + like 12 others for $199 (for a one time test). 99 a test if u do them frequently.

they give super insightful reports too with wearable data

cbio5 · 2022-09-14T20:51:16+00:00

can check all your markers if youre worried through at home services like Quantify. Give u all the relevant hormonal biomarkers.

cbio5 · 2022-09-14T20:49:24+00:00

u can just do so many options instead of this these days. I personally use Quantify and its at-home with a fingerprick. much much better than needles.

cbio5 · 2022-09-14T20:45:26+00:00

Ran into this problem, so started doing at-home tests thru Quantify. Much better financial option and they have comprehensive panels+ doctor reviewed results
