    In this human study using 1.5g/day, they saw some liver fat reduction, but unfortunetly no change in weight. So not all the benefits of the OP study seem to translate to humans. https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/2872/camu-camu-decreases-hepatic-steatosis-and-liver-injury-markers-in-overweight-hypertriglyceridemic-individuals-a-randomized-crossover-trial?_=1788701319075

    @ChroncStresChris Re "calcium d-glucarate, caffeine + K2, CO2, TUDCA, taurine, and niacinamide", That's a good idea of yours to focus on strengthening your liver. I would first try plain milk or eggshell powder for the calcium. They're less likely to cause digestive difficulty. Caffeine and k2 should be helpful, as well as should co2. I think I would drop the tudca coz the taurine takes care of what it would do (it's actually what I did for myself: bought it but soon after starting stopped using it) I'd also start with trying to get the nutrients from actual food, eg caffeine from coffee/tea, k2 and b vitamins from liver, taurine from seafood... And finally I guess you're also planning to get quality protein from things like cheese and eggs (along with something sweet like coke or orange juice to prevent triggering stress hormones) Good luck

    @Jennifer Haha, that is funny.  Ice cream was the answer.  I think in our very modern and very deficient world, love is a component in healing, beyond the technical and mechanical parts of healing needed.  Love is indeed a powerful thing; even beyond the emotional response, the deeper security and hope that love provides.  A strange coincidence, I received an email today for an ebook on sale on this very subject.  I prefer physical books, but the price of ebooks is just too good to pass up for my budgeted life these days. I realize not everyone wants or needs everything broken down academically: to use an analogy I've heard, some just want to eat the apple, they don't have to look at it in a microscope. Books and authors are a personal taste, no doubt, but just in case it would interest you:  https://www.amazon.com/Four-Loves-C-S-Lewis-ebook/dp/B01EFM8NI4 I was not aware of the cloudy egg white, as evidence of more CO2.  Interesting.  I did notice the egg whites were a bit cloudy just recently, but thought that was due to the cold of the refrigerator.  I've never had Nounós yogurt, but it does indeed look to be the cream of the crop.  I like the A2 and the glass container.  Next time I make it to Whole Foods, which is hardly never these days, I'll look for it. I agree with your egg perspective.  I eat 2-4 a day myself.  I've been considering adding some of Haidut's vitamin E several times a week, but since my PUFA is quite low in general, I don't worry too much about it.  Wow, hives from the lichen-derived.  (And I see I used the word mushroom-derived in error.)  I think I'll look for lanolin-derived.  I don't feel well on the vitamin D3 supplement I have, which I think is synthetic.  But I don't feel well on any supplements.  I think Haidut's D3 was a little better, but I don't completely remember.  It's been years since I've had his. Yeah, grounding.  I haven't done that is a while. That does look like good mayo that you linked, as far as store bought goes.  And 17oz for $9 is actually not too bad.  It would cost me a few dollars more to make it myself, but I see that I would be able to use a better olive oil.  I promise, I'm not dogging your mayo , I'm just attempting to be objective in my evaluation.  I would take your olive mayo over all the soy based mayos any day.  Coincidentally, I did just make mayo after my last message and it didn't take at first.  Really, it's one of my least favorite things to make.  I can be a bit neurotic in my quest for quality, so I'll continue to do it until I really lose my patience with it.  I believe the problem is that I was using bottled lemon juice versus fresh.

    @PrinceTrebata very ho behaviour not replying. Sorry. I stopped the back ones and still don’t do them( I am still catabolic! Not getting stronger in the gym! Back aches! Bone hurts!) despite getting more than enough protein. This is perfect btw. I am not trying to be anabolic, as that usually entails with some sort of fat growth or water retention from AAS. But that’s a different story more suited for the moggy chicken Currently have been and am doing high seat biking. If I recover (hopefully when I slowly ramp up the calories), and those issues go away, I’ll throw in the stretches and stretching machine. If I find a sustainable routine with time.

    Thyroid for me is essential but not the 1 pill to cure all my woes. Without taking thyroid, my pulse dips to 36 bpm and in the 40s - 50s with office work. On thyroid, my daytime resting is around 70 bpm. I take Cynoplus and Cynomel. I need less in the summer and more in the winter to reach a daytime temperature of 37 C or higher and a reasonable pulse. I hope that one day I can become metabolically healthy enough to stop needing it, but until then, I still have to source it.

    @BioEclectic said in Never feel satiated: Pressure cookers actually save energy Effect of high pressure steam on the eating quality of meat proteins High-pressure processing has potential for food preservation purposes because it can inactivate microorganisms and enzymes. The spatial configuration of some enzymes is changed. Proteins are composed of amino acids connected by amide bonds. Due to high reactivity under pressure and heat the molecules are twisted and changed. They could be no longer recognized by our digestive enzymes. The use of high pressure to modify the functionality of food proteins https://doi.org/10.1016/S0924-2244(97)01015-7 However some studies have shown to make it easier to digest meat but high pressure can affect protein conformation and can lead to protein denaturation, aggregation or gelation, depending on the protein system, the applied pressure, the temperature and the duration of the pressure treatment.

    @LucH That's a very comprehensive paper, thanks for sharing! I didn't mean that zonulin is a protective inhibitor, I was referencing that substances that inhibit zonulin (like Larazotide acetate) are protective against its deleterious effects (like type 1 diabetes / celiac), as elaborated on in the papers we have both posted. @LucH said in Zonulin and its Consequences: For me zonulin is secreted in presence of excess lectins and gliadin (agglutinin family) to avoid aggregation with L-glutamine from the membranes. Zonulin acts as a garde-barrière, telling the body to let the toxins get away. Zonulin tells the tight junctions to stay open … Do you have more info on this? A search for lectins and leaky gut discloses this article: Lectins: The Gluten-Lectin-Leaky Gut Connection Some lectins that we consume in everyday foods can bind to the sugars in the cell walls of the gut or in the blood. This can cause an immune response, leading to inflammation, intestinal damage, altered gut flora, malabsorption, decreased cellular repair, cellular death, and eventually disease. These lectins bind to glycoproteins and glycolipids (sugar-coated proteins and fats) found on the surface of human and other animal cells. This binding allows for agglutination (clumping) and sometimes can produce an immune response. They can cause agglutination of blood cells and they can bind to the cells that line the small intestine. This article also references Fasano, he seems to be a popular guy in zonulin world. The relevant reference regarding lectins is here (I think): Dietary lectins are metabolic signals for the gut and modulate immune and hormone functions A related paper is here: Characteristics and consequences of interactions of lectins with the intestinal mucosa Following general Peat diet suggestions will have you avoiding most lectin-containing foods anyway, but there are two that stick out: dairy and nightshades. Someone could be getting most of their calories from milk and potatoes thinking theyre fine because its Peaty but may be driving intestinal permeability due to the lectin content. The example given in the article of a noxious lectin is wheat germ agglutinin. I wonder how bad non-wheat derived lectins like those from potatoes and milk are. If the mechanism is as described I also wonder if it may be advisable to keep dietary gluten and lectins to a minimum during L-glutamine supplementation, as that combination may provide ample reason for a zonulin trigger. This will be easy for wheat, likely also potatoes, but cutting milk may prove to be a challenge, if necessary. It also may be the case that the supraphysiological doses of glutamine generally used in supplementation may override any zonulin signaling caused by incidental dietary lectins. I'm not sure.

    @the-MOUSE you dont really need hair once your his age and already have wife/kids. and being built like that is peaty. also 1.5 liters chocolate ice cream/day diet cures hairloss but you need to supp bicarb, sunbathe, and do nofap for it to take effect.

    @Nomanarch A large amount of peaters I meet online either here or on the RPF are from Canada including me. It's interesting because I would think for our size it would be much rarer to see a Canadians on here. To answer your question though all the substances you use are good and peaty but it can be excessive if your taking them everyday. t3 and t4 are easily acquired via meds.com.mx. I had no problems getting mine through customs. Besides that ensuring you have adequate carb intake, salt to taste, eating gelatinous foods. Some other supplements you can think about trying in the future are Progest e, Pregnenolone, and Cyproheptadine.

    @Jennifer said in Protein synthesis / net carbs: “*Protein: (about 15-20% calories) .6-.8g/lb. Protein should be on the higher end if you are active, or you are older. Protein sources should be from ruminant meat (beef, bison, lamb, goat), specific seafood (shrimp, scallops, cod, sole, oysters, mussels, clams), pasture raised eggs, very lean 99% chicken/ turkey/ fowl (These are very lean because they are high in polyunsaturated fats if not).” I am older and active to I try to get 1g/lb. Like I mentioned in an earlier post when I dropped the protein intake below that my recovery suffered but that was with lower carbs so now that I am increasing them I will adjust and see how it works. I only track animal based protein in crono and disregard the plant based. @Jennifer said in Protein synthesis / net carbs: Since you developed allergies and digestive issues following a keto(ish) elimination diet and feel better since upping your carbs, I wonder if your thyroid was affected. Have you tracked your temps and pulse rate first thing in the morning and 20–30 minutes after eating? Too much protein relative to your needs and not enough carbs can lower thyroid function, and poor thyroid function is a common cause of allergies. I never had any thyroid problems until I did the lower carb diet. I did lab work while I was on that diet and my free T3 crashed but as soon as I increased the carbs it came right back to upper levels and that was just around 120 carbs. Definitely affected my thyroid. Unfortunately I had food allergies before starting that diet. I have had to avoid shell fish for quite some time now. But the EoE and possibly related to dairy/eggs could be the supps she has me on or my gut is now so messed up that will be need to be corrected. Would be nice if it was one of the supplements. Good thing is I am rotating off of some of the supps she has had me on for a year now and that is in the time frame EoE appeared. Something I will need to watch, thanks.

    @the-MOUSE That does seem to be what a couple of people that did hardcore Peating are saying. I can't say whether it is or not as the only time I was supplementing with lots of omega-3 was when I was also on a shit diet and the omega-3 didn't seem to help the shit diet.
