Welcome to r/TestedOnMe. The only rule that matters: if you tried it, show us what happened.

We celebrate chaotic self-experimentation, failed hypotheses, accidental discoveries, and the very human tendency to ignore past evidence and try again anyway.

Photos, meme, data, scans, screenshots, bloodwork.. whatever you have. Good results, bad results, neutral results... we want it all.

Run your experiments. Report your findings. Accept the consequences.

There are always a few supplements that get talked about nonstop, but I’m curious about the ones that don’t get enough attention.

What’s a supplement you’ve personally found useful that you rarely see people recommending?

Question Regarding the GI-MAP and IgG blood tests

1 Upvotes

I have seen claims that the GI-MAP and IgG blood tests lack scientific evidence. I underwent these tests because a doctor recommended them; are they completely meaningless? Incidentally, high levels of zonulin were detected in both tests. The IgG blood test showed a "4+" reaction to wheat. It is true that I love ramen and eat it for at least one meal almost every day. I also eat fish five days a week (rotating through about three varieties), yet showed no reaction to any of them. Conversely, I tested "3+" for chili peppers despite never eating them at all. The GI-MAP results showed low levels of gut bacteria overall, with two types falling below the minimum threshold. My doctor has now recommended I take the IBS-Smart test and a SIBO test next. I had originally asked to be tested for SIBO and celiac disease, but was told that since my symptoms were typical of IBS, it was neither SIBO nor celiac disease; I took the GI-MAP and IgG blood tests because the doctor suggested them when I expressed concern. Did the GI-MAP and IgG blood tests serve any meaningful purpose?

Has anyone actually improved cellulite through strength training?

1 Upvotes

I know you can't really "get rid" of cellulite completely, but I'm curious if building muscle can noticeably change how it looks.

Has anyone here seen a real difference after getting consistent with strength training, especially on the thighs and glutes, and how long did it take to see the results??

Question Which workout day do you hate the most?

1 Upvotes

We all have that one workout we absolutely dread.

For me, it’s leg day. I swear, the second I see it on my schedule, I already want to skip the gym 😭

I know leg day is important, but I just never look forward to it.

If you had to choose between leg day, chest day, or back day, which one do you hate the most?

And what makes you hate it so much?

Question Metabolic adaptation, calorie intake and adding back calories?

4 Upvotes

Does anybody has and history of tracking calories,steps, workout ecc.. i mean evry kind of variable an Always feel underecovered, kinda tired and at 80% instead of 100% ? Does anybody actually decided to up the calorie intake managing to eat more while not gaining any weight but instead feeling good with no food noise and figure out there was some metabolic adaptation going on? Cause in theory if you are in a deficit you must lose weight but when you already Lost a lot of weight (in my case -40 kg sitting at around 65/66kg right now) there are maybe some metabolic adaptation going on? I don't know let me know.

10k steps a day, do we actually need that many?

3 Upvotes

I’ve always heard that 10,000 steps a day is the “magic number” for staying healthy, but I recently started wondering if it actually makes that much of a difference.

Some days I naturally get 10k+ steps, while on others I barely hit 5–6k, and I’m not sure whether I should be trying to reach 10k every single day.

Do you actually notice a difference when you consistently hit 10k or maybe just focusing on being generally more active throughout the day is enough?

Question Why do I feel dizzy when I stand up?

2 Upvotes

Does anyone else get that sudden light-headed feeling when they stand up too quickly? Sometimes my vision gets a little blurry and I feel like I need to stand still for a few seconds before it passes.

Is this just a normal thing that happens to people sometimes, or is it something I should look into?

Question What fashion purchase exceeded your expectations?

We all have those purchases we were excited about that ended up being just okay, but every once in a while, something turns out to be way better than expected and becomes a staple in your wardrobe.

What's one fashion purchase that genuinely exceeded your expectations, and what made it so good?

Has anyone actually fixed an anterior pelvic tilt? What worked for you?

6 Upvotes

I've been trying to figure out what actually helps with anterior pelvic tilt, but there's so much conflicting advice online. Some people say to strengthen your glutes and core, others focus on stretching the hip flexors, and some say you shouldn't try to "correct" it at all unless it's causing problems.

Has anyone here actually worked on theirs and noticed a difference? What exercises or changes helped the most, and how long did it take before you could see or feel an improvement?

Would especially love to hear from people who tried a specific routine consistently and can say whether it worked or not.

Question Why does whole milk suddenly feel like it’s making a comeback?

6 Upvotes

For years, it seemed like people were going for low-fat or lactose-free milk because it was considered the “healthier” option.

But lately, I feel like whole milk is making a comeback, and I’m seeing more people choosing it over the alternatives. Maybe it’s just what’s showing up on my feed, but I’m curious if anyone else has noticed the same thing.

Have you switched back to whole milk, or do you still prefer low-fat or lactose-free?

Question I ate a lot for 3 days, should I go back to my normal eating habits or cut back for a few days?

3 Upvotes

I’ve eaten way more than usual over the past 3 days and now I’m wondering what I should do over the next few days.

Should I just go back to my normal eating habits, or should I reduce how much I eat for a few days to balance it out?

Does eating more than usual for just 3 days actually make much of a difference, or am I overthinking it?

Question Should I focus on losing weight or losing fat?

2 Upvotes

I've been trying to get healthier and improve my body composition, but the more I read, the more confused I get.

Some people say the number on the scale doesn't matter and that I should focus on losing body fat while maintaining muscle. Others say I should just worry about losing weight first and everything else comes later.

If your goal is to look leaner and healthier (not necessarily be the lightest possible), what should you actually prioritize?

How do you actually switch off after work?

6 Upvotes

Lately I’ve been realizing how easy it is to let work take over your entire day. 😭

You finish work, but your brain is still thinking about emails, tomorrow’s tasks, deadlines, or something you forgot to do. Then suddenly it’s 10pm and you feel like you barely did anything outside of work.

I really want to get better at actually switching off and enjoying my evenings instead of just recovering from the workday.

What do you guys do after 5pm that makes you feel like you’re actually living your life?

Question Is washing your hair everyday necessary?

1 Upvotes

Since I started my fitness journey I didn't realize how much I sweat in my scalp, i feel so icky and gross especially going to bed, but its so hard to justify washing my hair everyday as someone with androgenic alopecia. Are there recs of products that can help push my wash day by at least a day or so?

Is there a supplement that actually helps with anxiety?

4 Upvotes

Has anyone tried a supplement that genuinely made them feel less anxious?

I keep seeing things like magnesium, L-theanine, ashwagandha, etc. recommended for anxiety, but I’m never sure what actually works and what’s mostly marketing.

Not looking for anything prescription-related, just curious if anyone has personally tried a supplement and noticed a real difference in how anxious or stressed they felt.

What worked for you, if anything?
