Microdosing lye
I’ve found that if I eat a little potassium hydroxide every day, and each week add a little more, that now I have reached a tolerance and immunity to its negative effects. It’s an acquired taste, but now I find that it’s quite pleasant on the palette. Even better, I’ve gained more mental acuity, my libido has improved, and I don’t need my full 14 hours of sleep anymore.
Here’s the dosing schedule:
- week 1: 1.5 mg
- week 2: 3 mg
- week 3: 5 mg
- week 4: 10 mg
- week 5: 25 mg
- week 6: 1 g
- week 7: 5 g
- week 8: 25 g
- week 9: 100 g
- week 10: 1 kg

It's a very good piece of advice. Wikipedia says it is a food thickener and a food stabilizer, which means that it enhances the calories of what you eat (the thickening process), and prevents explosive diarrhea (the stabilization process).
Excellent post given the sub
And yet some troll felt the need to downvote helpful information.
Stop immediately! This is highly dangerous and you could die!
You're eating potassium hydroxide, a highly corrosive strong base.
You're gradually increasing your pH, so if you come into contact with some acid, you will be neutralized! Exothermically!
Now you can't eat pickles or lemons, can't drink wine, can't even go out in the rain, because of acid rain.
I used to have issues with my stomach pH being below seven, but after trying some lye, I'm back at a nice alkaline 14, which has cured my stomach ulcers!
I am confused and curious. What was the reason to ingest pure potassium hydroxide?
