Resource SN megathread

Same goes for mixing the SN, we are just using standard metal spoons right? I just want every detail to be okay.

I read in a thread somewhere that SN can sometimes react with metal. I'm unsure how true this is, but I'm going to use plastic cups and spoons just to be completely sure

Question about fasting time. I was reading an old thread where Vizzy was telling someone "You have to fast for minimum 8 hours but I would recommend 24 hours, drink minimal water as possible, before 2-3 hours no water".
Thoughts about longer fasting time?

How long can it sit mixed in water before it has to be drank?

Does anyone know how this might work with someone who had bariatric surgery? Basically my stomach is smaller and connected directly from stomach to lower small intestine. My intestines are also smaller. It has absorption issues where I don't absorb all things very well, so I take double the amount of vitamins. It also causes diarrhea easily, and gas pain. I can get full very easily and water flushes things out of the stomach fast.

Do you adjust dosages based on this? And/or based on weighing more than some others?

Any thoughts are appreciated, thank you.

--- better details on byass ---

I have a small pouch stomach and the rest of the stomach is sealed off. The small stomach pouch is then connected directly to a lower part of the small intestine.

This bypass means that food goes directly from the pouch into the lower part of the small intestine, bypassing the larger part of the stomach and the upper part of the small intestine.

Gastric bypass surgery, while effective for weight loss, can lead to malabsorption and nutritional deficiencies due to altered digestive pathways, requiring lifelong monitoring and supplementation.
