@Milk-Destroyer Thank you. It's definitely not something I want to bring up with the person. The inflammation makes sense. I think it stems from feelings of inferiority, like I won't be able to do what the person I'm jealous of is doing. Whenever I start working hard, but am self-focused and not trying to keep up with them, the anxiety and jealousy seems to go away.

@cremes I've already essentially done that the past two weeks. My diet right now is basically fruit, dairy, some semi processed meat, and oysters from cans currently, and will soon have ground beef in there as a protein source (moved and had no dishes so waiting to get some delivered to actually be able to cook again). What would recommend while I'm depleting PUFA to do next? Ideally I want to try to help put together a sort of standard takeoff list to share eventually.

Somebody got androgenic feeling from alloP?

@Uroš said in High sugar diet and cavities: Are there any articles by Ray Peat on this topic? I'm still wondering how a high-sugar diet impacts tooth health. You can look for his statements on some podcasts https://bioenergetic.life/?q=dental+health In general poor dental health is a sign of low thyroid and low levels of D3+K2 and calcium. If you want healthy teeth just correct your thyroid, and vitamin deficiencies, and rinse your mouth with coconut oil or baking soda. Also, avoid fluoride...

I believe that's the main reason in addition to a couple of others including contamination.

Those who won't hear must feel or so the saying goes

Eat 1 - 2 tablespoons honey (not fancy honey, just any honey that is real honey) on an empty stomach in the morning. Nothing to eat or drink for an hour. Do this 2 or 3 days in a row. Voila, it is fixed for awhile. Maybe for a few weeks. It doesn’t seem to pay to eradicate them fully, and H Pylori have some benefit too, so this is what I use to keep them at bay.

I think one of the structural changes of hair loss involve a more circular forehead, with a pointier top of the skull -- the more egg shaped head. Assuming this is for men, when you take a certain amount it makes you temporarily baby faced with a smaller skull size and softer scalp. If you think of someone's bald shiny head, the scalp area is really rigid. Progesterone makes the tissue less dense and probably less fibrotic. Though I also think if you take too much it'll make your hair not as thick as it should be, because at that point you'd be opposing testosterone. It's certainly a better finasteride.

@Jakeandpace Yes, 4oz of Liver and a few oysters once per week. Maybe I should up the amount of liver I eat?

@peatolish +1 to Progest-E but as Peat cautioned it’s important to make sure your vitamin D level and calcium intake are high enough to avoid activation of certain estrogen-producing enzymes (7-keto I think was in the name) by the progesterone. If you’re not sure then vitamin E might be safer to start with. Or maybe the vitamin E in the Progest-E obviates the risk, it would be good to go back and check what Ray said. FWIW what you’re describing sounds similar to something I have on the left side of my nose which tingles like it’s growing whenever estrogen or prolactin are rising, if I consume TocoVit or slather it on the skin the tingles go away.

@BroJonas The adrenaline-y feelings have resolved over time. I’m taking around 33mg of cynoplus and few nibs of t3 a day. I think the body just adjusts to lowering pituitary activity after a while

@KippleRemover yeah, im not sure why baking soda worked before but doesnt anymore. i put a bunch of coconut oil with some drops of rosemary oil in my hair today, since theyre supposed to be anti fungal. it helped a little. i suspect showering too warm and too long hasnt been helping.

What does it mean if ~4mcg lowers my temperature

@Sophocles Constantine is doing a great job with this series. Highly recommended.

@mostlylurking Ooohhh!

@Kilgore no I feel good when it happens it makes no sense no logic can explain it to me it seems

@hypermensch said in The Cure to NEETdom: What causes one to develop shut-in/hermit tendencies? The noble and all powerful faustian spirit. What works to overcome this? Why would you want to do this?
