Excerpt 2 from: Unsaturated Vegetable Oils: Toxic http://www.raypeat.com/articles/articles/unsaturated-oils.shtml To defend the seeds from the animals that would eat them, the [PUFA]-oils block the digestive enzymes in the animals' stomachs. Their tendency to oxidize is very great. These oxidative processes can damage enzymes and other parts of cells, and especially their ability to produce energy. The enzymes which break down proteins are inhibited by unsaturated fats, and these enzymes are needed not only for digestion, but also for production of thyroid hormones, clot removal, immunity, and the general adaptability of cells. The risks of abnormal blood clotting, inflammation, immune deficiency, shock, aging, obesity, and cancer are increased. Thyroid and progesterone are decreased. Since the unsaturated oils block protein digestion in the stomach, we can be malnourished even while "eating well." *) Useful info: more to be read on my forum.

    I noticed the reprint of Nutrition for Women says "100 short articles by Ray Peat, PHD," where the old one said "92...". What did they add to it? Also, note that From PMS to Menopause is for sale on Peat's website but not Amazon, and Peat's website doesn't have Generative Energy. Weird. I wonder if Katherine gets more of the money if you order from Peat's site. I'd imagine so.

    @Mossy, thank you for understanding. I’ve been taking advantage of the beautiful weather we’ve been having here and helping my dad build up the endurance he lost since having the flu in January so I’ve been away from my computer and the forum more, lately. I think the thread’s title should read Cooking With Mossy because you’re far more ambitious and precise with your cooking than I am. You remind me of my brother. While I hardly ever measure ingredients and prefer using my senses—for example, I can tell by smell when something is done baking—my brother is methodical and likes following detailed instructions. I joke that it’s because he’s a Virgo, a sign known for its meticulous attention to detail, sometimes to its own detriment, and that if you want something done to perfection, hire a person with Virgo (or Capricorn) placements. I’m so glad you’ve made strides with your health and with your level of dedication, I have no doubt that you’ll continue to. I think my success with thyroid is a reflection of my long-standing deficiency, having had an under-active thyroid since birth and certain stressful experiences like molestation that suppressed it further. I think the average person with a healthier history could improve their thyroid function with diet and lifestyle changes alone. Having overcome the trauma, my need to supplement is minimal now outside of winter so I’m hopeful it will eventually be unnecessary. I’ve been a swimmer since I was in utero —in fact, one of my earliest memories is me as a baby in our pool wishing my mum had put me in the blue floaty she put my cousin in, instead of the red floaty I was in because even barely out of the womb I had strong preferences and don’t care for red lol—so I don’t actually fear I would drown, but I can see myself getting tossed around like a beach ball. However, it’s not mastering surfing that I’m after, but the surfer’s relaxed lifestyle and mindset. I could easily spend hours floating in the ocean on a surfboard (or steamer trunk—shout-out to Joe ), never catching a wave, and be in total bliss if I was in the flow, just being water, my friend. Haha! Fair enough. My dad isn’t a finger tapper, though. I sometimes wish he was because it has been a struggle getting him to eat, especially since his cancer treatments. I used to make all his meals in bulk on Mondays and he would just pull whatever he wanted out of the freezer and reheat it in the microwave throughout the week, but I’m having to make him all his meals daily now because he won’t eat otherwise. LOL at ask Jennifer. I’ve been collecting random knowledge in preparation for if I’m ever a contestant on a game show. I’m convinced with each fact I gather that no matter how useless, it will be the answer to the question that stands between me and the grand prize so it goes in the memory bank. Even if there is credibility to the claimed benefits of sprouting and fermenting, it sounds like grains are only a fraction of your diet so I personally would stick with the flour that’s been working for you. You’re already eliminating the worst offenders (IMO)—the franken ingredients—by baking from scratch. The only reason I like sprouted flour is because I find it sweeter and as a devout Wonka follower, the sweeter the better. My dad doesn’t eat a ton of grains, anyway.

    @Kilgore One of my friends (tall) found a beautiful tall black girl and I have already got them interested in Ray Peat. However, note that being tall is actually a trap, since you have a higher caloric requirement and are more susceptible to cardiac conditions because blood pumping requirements are not linear with height (AFAIK). This is why tall animals are so rare, because unless you have specific adaptations it's disadvantageous in that way to be taller than your competition.

    Random notes from the other form during the covid times: Peat on cvd supps: Q: What would be your go-to medicines/food etc, if you started to develop "Covid" like symptoms like shortness of breath and fever? RP: Aspirin, antihistamines, and antibiotics (azithromycin has been tested in covid), vitamin D, milk, orange juice,nebulized 4% saline, lidocaine (nebulized or oral), progesterone. Famotidine Steady state famotidine concentrations sufficient to elicit H2 antagonism (and inverse agonism) are readily achieved using inexpensive oral tablets and safe dosage levels. As summarized above, the famotidine dosage employed in the retrospective hospital studies currently available which examine famotidine effects on COVID-19 outcomes appears to be levels (20–40 mg daily) which are unlikely to fully inhibit histamine-mediated systemic effects at the H2 receptor ( https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/pharmacology/articles/10.3389/fphar.2021.633680/full think this would be a better protocol : Aspirin >500mg High doses of Vitamins A,D,E,K2 policosanol or other long chain saturated fatty acids An anti-biotic, preferably one of the tetracyclines or azithromycin An anti-serotonin chemical like famotidine or cyproheptadine a steroid like progesterone, pregnenolone, testosterone,... Addiotinal options : methylene blue nigella sativa emodin / cascara ivermectin glycine zinc https://lowtoxinforum.com/members/mauritio.7916/ Mauritio: In this study, they looked at the difference between treating people less or more than 3 days after COVID-19 symptoms started. They treated the people with a combination of Aspirin 100mg indomethacin 75-100mg omeprazole 20mg A combination of flavonoids: hesperidin, quercetin and vitamin C If patients still got worse, they gave them azithromycin, bethametasone and/or heparin. The duration of the sicknes was reduced and most importantly there were zero percent hospitalizations in the early treatment group, compared with 19% in the other group. That basically means you could treat covid at home with mostly over the counter medications, but it's important to start treatment early. I would make some small improvements to the protocol. I'd favor a higher aspirin dose, meaning >500mg ,maybe even in the grams, it has less effect on blood thinning, but acts more as a metabolical aid and anti-viral. (Aspirin Is Antiviral) If you take higher doses of aspirin, it's smart to supplement vitamin K2 ,which has good binding affinity for the spike protein, so works in your favor as well ( Vitamin K, D and A bind to the SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein ) I'd also remove omeprazole and replace it with famotidine. There has been evidence for it having an anti-covid effect ,hence why Dr. Robert Malone treated himself with it when he had an early case of covid. Plus there's tons of studies on famotidines pro-metabolic effects. I've come across a few studies already mentioning azithromycin for covid. I talked about one of its mechanisms here : (Coronavirus spike protein creates inflammation via CD147, antibiotics treat) And they cite another paper on azithromycin for covid: (Azithromycin: Immunomodulatory and antiviral properties for SARS-CoV-2 infection - PubMed) There's also evidence for Quercetin and vitamin C beeing helpful,so the stack they use is quite decent (Quercetin and Vitamin An Experimental, Synergistic Therapy for the Prevention and Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 Related Disease (COVID-19) - PubMed) https://lowtoxinforum.com/threads/early-treatment-with-otcs-reduces-covid-hospitalizations-to-zero.44503/

    @Rayoshi-Pufamoto said in Limiting salt consumption for infants?: Should the sodium intake be limited to a certain amount or can salt be eaten liberally at that age? Whenever salt is "mixed" with fat, the taste buds are saturated. This encourages the brain to ask for more because the sensors are out of order. => Enough potassium should still be brought. If not sufficient from vegetables and fruit (mainly), I'd add some potassium bicarbonate (not sodium bicarbonate), in a shake. The dose for an adult is 1.2 g potassium bicarbonate. So, I'd say 1/3 under 6 years old. 1 hour before or 2 hours after digestion. Best not to eat meat just after the take (pH is not optimal then). Not on a continuous way (impact on TH1><TH2 and M1 >< M2). So, with days off, let's say after 8-10 days take.

    @Jakeandpace I have stopped and started including smoked tobacco a lot and it doesn't seem like that big of an issue. the only time I had trouble was when I was taking multiple nootropics in a stack as well as chewing nicotine gum 4mg 3x a day and taking mitolipin and I got choline overload symptoms. I think I might actually prefer nicotine in isolation over tobacco smoking. I haven't tried tobacco snus yet though.

    @AnxiousMess Dr. Ray Peat suggested starting at 4mcg or a 6th of a tablet a day. And take that dose for a week or two measuring your responses. Danny Roddy also mentioned recently that if u take more than 10mcg at a time your liver essentially destroys it. You also need to make sure you’re eating enough carbohydrates to support the increase in metabolism or you will get these adrenaline responses. I’ve been on T3 mono therapy for over a year and am doing great at one 25mg tablet broken up through the day.
