Read the Milk Manifesto

Regenerative milk is more environmentally friendly than vegetable harvests.

fasting is not peaty, but I dont think its such a terrible idea to do a 3 day fast once or twice per year

While LSD is intense, saying it's a portal to demons is religious nonsense, and of course that guy Owen, who ironically enough made the cover art for Bronze Age Mindset, has an entite page dedicated to Christianity
I'd write his experience off as having a bad trip.
Lots of people on X/Twitter like to sensationalize different concepts like demons and things being demonic. While some people might genuinely feel that certain experienced/drugs are demonic, it seems easy to just make stuff up and exaggerate for engagement. Make something sound more sinister and bigger than it actually is.

Now if we're talking about facing our own demons, anxiety, fears, and of course our gut health, that's much more valid. People undermine the importance of gut health with things such as psilocybin mushrooms or LSD, especially LSD as its a much longer and more intense experience. LSD makes you understand the importance of your environment, your energy, other people's energy, etc. It can put your problems and what you've been neglecting doing in your life to the forefront. I'd say the normie LSD formula is think about bad thing, let that bad thing effect your mood, freak out about said thing, and have a bad trip. Of course there's bigger problems, lots of fear inducing propaganda, and general uncertainty in this world, but as long as you understand you must keep going and have a positive friend who knows how to keep you in a positive mood and mindset, you can put yourself back in the positive happy trip spot.

A big thing for me was seeing how beautiful nature was and how dysfunctional a lot of humans are and human creations, LSD activates synaesthesia where you can feel what you see, and vice versa. I'd research more into synaesthesia honestly. Again, it all goes back to your environment, your mindset, way of thinking, your trauma, etc.

also consider reading Peat's article on aspirin which discusses the benefits of aspirin as well as the marketing scheme behind the rise in ibuprofen. Aspirin, brain, and cancer.

@insufferable When I hear WV my mind goes to the DuPont scandal with PFAS, I think that something like that could have had a lasting impact on those community's in ways that we still don't understand. I'm sure there were higher rates of cretinism, etc. But I think the most bioenergetic country to move to would be somewhere with high elevation in Russia/Bulgaria since they already understand most of these ideas and have for decades and decades before many in the U.S. Carbon dioxide baths, man made pyramids, brain wave testing, orgone principles, etc. https://youtube.com/@bosanske.piramide?si=qHOOVVMy4TlYOwkc

@Alexander99 said in Is Caloric Deficit Peaty?:

My point in the above post was more that you should have a calorie deficit when losing weight, but this is one, albeit an important one, of many factors in losing fat.

The trouble with the idea of a "calorie deficit" is just how exactly do you figure out what that means for you? If you have dieted using calorie deficits in the past, your body can reset its metabolic rate so that you can withstand calorie deficit (=starvation/deprivation) better which means you would need to reduce the calories even further to get any weight loss. This also opens the way to lose muscle mass (from higher cortisol) instead of losing fat.

@magnuscoffee I love the taste, but the manganese content can be problematic. Manganese overload can be an issue if you get carried away with the fabulous taste and overindulge habitually.

@raytreats My skin started getting dry when I upped my metabolic rate. I needed a lot more vitamins. I started eating a can of oysters daily and it resolved very quickly. (Now I eat one a week.)

On good days, yes. When consistent with carrot salad and/or other antibacterial stuff

Thinking about thinking is like, a koan. It makes my brain short circuit.

The most controversial question in all Peating

@honest_skeptic Ray always said that he wasn't a scientist and never really aspired to be one. He has always described himself as a painter/philosopher and/or a science critic. If you think that having some articles published on pubmed makes you a good scientist, you haven't really understood the main problem.

I think FMT is a good option for gut treatment. It already has dozens of studies showing improvements of digestive diseases including Crohn’s.

Here is one of them:
