If diluted like 1ml gbl in 2dl of water, does it affect any of your organs at all?

If it does, then what about turning the gbl into ghb, does the ghb affect your organs?
 
GHB is remarkably safe for what it does. GBL however has not been as well studied (though it is a prodrug for GHB) and can be more of a surface irritant.

Here is a msds http://grover.mirc.gatech.edu/data/msds/514.pdf

Turning GBL into GHB is a synth which is illegal in many areas and I don't think it is appropriate for Bluelight. It will make dosage and storage easier and safer though.
 
Thing is I've never heard from a reliable source that gbl would be dangerous at all.

I've heard that it damages the liver when converting to ghb, is this true?

I also heard it can cause your blood to change PH, but this I cannot understand if you dilute the gbl really much. It wouldnt be higher ph than drinking citrus juice.... Also heard it damage your stomach but again if you dilute it it shouldn't be higher ph than citrus juice...
 
GBL converted into GHB in the body.

Chronic administration is neurotoxic. Brain is fairly important organ....

Didn't I say it occurred naturally in that quote...

Edit:

I realize my source is neurotoxic in rats, but still.

Never heard that before. Even in the ghb/glb drug faq here on bluelight it says it is NOT neurotoxic.

Should be lower PH since acid is on the bottom of the ph scale. My mistake.
 
GHB does not harm the body except in lethal doses. Repeated dosing without letting certain neurotransmitters recalibrate can cause severe withdrawal symptoms, but carefully planned and correctly timed redosing can continue for years on end without harm.

What about GBL? Personally I will not use it more than once a week so I know it wont harm me that much either way but I like to know the side effects of what I'm using hehe.

I could easily turn the gbl into ghb but why go through all that mess (which isnt much mess though, but im lazzzzzzzy) if gbl is as harmless as ghb?

I'd worry more about the huge quantities of sodium that you ingest when you take NaGHB rather than potential liver damage from metabolism of GBL.
