For increasing lipophilic hormone solubility in and absorption from aqueous solutions consider dissolving with HPbCD in a 1:2 molar ratio. Please post further findings and results.

Oh, I read the original post too quickly. I see "Apple" is a sub category/descriptor. The flesh definitely reminds me of a mango. One description I read about it says "...it has a flavor somewhat similar to both banana and mango...". That sounds very tasty.

Interesting about the Aesop's Fables reference. I will search that out when I get a chance.

@Mauritio said in Whats worth knowing about structured water / magnetized water?:

This might be the reason why a structured cell water repels the more hydrophilic steroids like estrogen and attracts the more lipophilic ones like pregnenolone...

This seems very likely to be the case.

@Mauritio said in Whats worth knowing about structured water / magnetized water?:

I feel like there is a connection between structured water and heavy metals.
Would it be a safer way of chelating heavy metals? Or would it simply push them out of the cell ?
Perhaps the strategy would be to combine structured water with binders (charcoal, xyz clays, diatomaceous earth for parasites etc). I get the impression that structured water would behave synergistically with the body's own coherent bioelectric field. As both are intelligent in their own way there is likely to be synchronisation.

Unfortunately i can't access. Seems like I have to register to access.

AFAIK you should be able to view the threads without being logged in. The forum had somewhat similar issues to RPF except the solution was to make registrations invite only.

If I was in your position I think I would go full carnivore diet. Add in some betaine HCL to digest the meat and hopefully that will heal the body enough to get the digestive signalling to come back online.

mate give me the sauce. You're riling me up, and you then withdraw the sauce. Give me the sauce

Pretty sure we're all talking about the same thing. You've just got to find the form that rings with you, for now.

@nicemushroom17 How is your digestion?

When I was 29, my spine collapsed (12 vertebral fractures, 8 of which compressed) due to a thyroid disorder that went undiagnosed and I increased my bone density, going from a DEXA score of -6.7 to -3.6 (for reference, -3.5 is osteoporosis) within a year on a Weston A. Price inspired diet supplemented daily with fermented cod liver oil and high vitamin butter oil. Now that I have my thyroid under control and I’m weight restored—I went from my normal weight of 99 lb/45 kg to 67 lb/30 kg within a few months after my thyroid crashed—my body is no longer wasting nutrients so I no longer require high amounts of the fat solubles, however, I attribute climbing mountains again, in part, to a diet abundant in them. I was an active climber prior to the injury and not only had to learn how to walk again, I had to build back my spine so that I was no longer at risk of paralysis if I were to fracture again, and I couldn’t have done that without the dense nutrition.

Interesting. Throwing in some K2/other decalcifying agents may help as well.

@ilovethesea there is less than a year that i got to know about peating. The forum was already transitioning, a few months before changing raypeatforum to lowtoxinforum and there was a lot of posts against peating and promoting anti vitamin A. Nonetheless i got much more interested in testing peating ideas. The first one that made me realize that peat might be right about something was that i tested licking a tablespoon of sugar before sleeping and it pretty much gave me the most intense, vivid and beautiful dreams.
I think those that have a honest interest in looking for cure and truth won't be captured by fad diets.
Besides, i feel something negative and maybe spiritually disturbing when i read charlie's post or try to watch/read anything of Garret Smith.
Too much pride.

@pittybitty said in Hypobros, what do you do to cope with those dreary european winters?:

Right now I seem to get the biggest boost from fresh fruit. Juice is enough in summer but winter is different.

Yes, indeed. Less acid juice during the winter period. The body has more difficulties to neutralize acids in cold periods.

Hi @jet9, if you consume starch and like hearty dinners, here are some ideas…

Question to ChatGPT (In summary)
Is consuming 50 g fructose from whole food (thus mainly with fiber for 3/4), concomitantly with 50g glucose, fractioned into 3 meals and one snack – no corn syrup added – going to set a problem with uric acid if your kidneys function normally. No overload?

Fructose and Uric Acid Production:
Fructose metabolism does indeed lead to the generation of uric acid, primarily through its conversion to fructose-1-phosphate by the enzyme fructokinase. This process consumes ATP, and the depletion of ATP can increase the purine degradation pathway, producing uric acid as a byproduct. In excessive amounts, this can potentially lead to high uric acid levels, which can be problematic, especially in conditions like gout or kidney stone formation.

Fractionation of Meals
Dividing your intake into 3 meals and 1 snack will likely reduce any immediate metabolic spikes in blood sugar and uric acid production compared to consuming all 100g of sugar at once. This makes the load on the liver (and kidneys) less intense at any given time. However, the total daily load still matters, and the 50g of fructose consumed across these meals might still lead to some degree of ATP depletion if you’re regularly consuming fructose in this range.

LucH asked
I suppose that if you eat some dairies with fruits (calcium and fructose), it won't set a problem.
ChatGPT answered:
Yes, consuming dairies with fruits, especially with calcium-rich foods like yogurt or cheese, might help mitigate. Calcium binds to oxalates and could potentially reduce the uric acid burden. The mechanism isn’t fully understood (…).
Note’s editor: Eating one slice of cheese like Gouda could do the job, as well as cottage cheese or Greek yaourt but moderate then the protein amount.

Fibrous Fruits, Dairy, and Fructose
In summary, consuming dairy products with fruit is unlikely to cause problems with uric acid levels and could actually help reduce some of the potential issues, thanks to the buffering effects of calcium and protein from dairy. It’s a well-balanced combination, especially if you’re not consuming large amounts of fructose or dairy, and if you have no preexisting conditions like gout or kidney problems. Keep the total intake in check, and your body should be able to handle it without issue.

I eat a quite Peaty diet - milk, various carbs (both starches and simple carbs), meat, coffee etc.

Sometimes intaking more carbs or protein or minerals etc.

No one can work with et cetera.

What could be the cause/-s and treatments?

@Maximalus said in Le sex vs semen retention:

Also keep in mind that many of the nofap/semen retention enthusiasts possibly have some form of POIS (post orgasmic illness syndrome) which reduces once they abstain

So they associate the return to a healthy POIS-free state as "benefits" when those without POIS feel that way all the time

A lot of POISers found that anti-inflammatories/anti-histamines help, some think it's a form of mast cell activation syndrome in some cases

But there are many clusters with their own causes and treatments

I wonder how many nofappers/semen retainers have some form of POIS not being aware not everyone has it

Semen emission affect everyone, aint necessary negative, can be positive

@alfredoolivas

We’re going on a cruise, so I’m more limited while on the ship. I rarely eat fried food because it gives me the shits anyway. I’m going to try to eat as much fruit as possible, maybe hard boiled eggs so they’re not cooked in vegetable oil. I can bring a bunch of gelatin packets at least. I just know it will overall be a lot more PUFA than I usually get. My only source now is from the natural amount that’s in meat, milk, eggs, and solid fats.

@user2 said in Psychosis and serotonins 5ht2a receptor , HDAC and chronic anti-psychotic use:

real/reality is a feeling . . . and it is all real

(we already went over this in a different thread, although my thoughts have changed to some extent)

Experience is real. Whatever we experience is real. However, there's more to reality than an individual's experience, and I feel it's still correct to say that some experiences are more aligned with reality than others.

With the greatest understanding and clarity of perception, reality is truly beautiful. (Not that I'm in that state currently)

However, if a drug makes a person experience an elevated mood or beauty (it's good to make a distinction between those two), it doesn't necessarily mean that they perceive with the greatest degree of clarity, and it could still be--and, I think, usually is--very warped.

In the context of drugs, and also to some extent human experience in general, the rational (if it's right to call it that) mind warps perception to fit within its framework as well as possible.

The process of clearing perception includes clearing away misconceptions in the framework, as well as getting more direct experience of reality without interference. These two aren't really that separated.

@lobotomize-me

Since this was very popular during the COVID pandemic, and promoted heavily by
Andreas Kalcker, many people especially in South America used it at that time. I got to make it myself from sodium chlorite, and used it. Since I didn't have COVID, I only got to use it for a chronic low grade infection that caused by WBC to be high. It didn't lower it though. I suspect it's because the bacteria in my system was aerobic, and it is effective for destroying anaerobic bacteria as ClO2 disocciates into Cl and O2, where Cl becomes NaCl salt and harmless, while O2 destroys anaerobes. It hasn't helped me when I used it, and likely it was due to me not having anaerobic infection. But that is the little I can comment on this. There is a large Telegram group on it, but even though I have been a member, I haven't used it much nor become an expert much less familiar with chlorine dioxide.
