    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.

    @Crypt-Keeper What I meant by 100ml was to ease the equation, so if you want a 5% solution with 5g dht, you would need 100ml dmso, but if you want a 5% solution with 2.5g dht, you need 50ml dmso. About the moisturizer, good point, but dmso itself is very liquidy so some gel like substance like pure aloe vera could make application easier. Totally not needed though. So if you dissolved 5grams of dht into 100ml dmso, the concentration would be 5%, and if you applied 1ml of that solution, you would get 50mg dht. PS: The prior post talks about milligrams instead of grams so mb.

    @LetTheRedeemed said in "Glucose Loading" protocol, a la Dr Stephens - A Critique: @Janelle525 yes. I’m definitely at the pinnacle of my salt intake, haha. I lowered my sugar consumption, or at least balanced it with spreading out my protein intake, and the headaches went away. That was a while ago. And I definitely still consume quite a bit of sugar: several sodas/juice/sweat teas per day, plus spoonfuls of honey with milk, and ice cream. I’ve definitely found my max sugar capacity Haha okay!

    Are you sure it is the heart? I think it could be the gallbladder secreting more bile acid to digest the butter, sometimes it happens to me after a fat heavy meal.

    @cs3000 said in Sonoluminescence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpLw5nyu_Pk Wow that's extremely interesting. The comments under the video are amazing as well. I had to think about the ying-yang symbol. You have the fire in the water here , representing the white dot in the black part of the symbol. But someone applied to the Bible or the Egyptian pyramids as well. The theory existed for ages that the Egyptians used sound for building the pyramids, maybe they also created electricity with it. And in the Bible god says he is a pillar of fire in the night and a pillar of clouds during the day. Again, representing the one which combines opposites in itself, as shown in the ying-yang symbol. Seems like this hits some core truth of reality. I find the idea of making electricity from this intriguing. Even if tis not enough for fusion, it's still at least tens of thousands degrees warm, which is quite something. Can we produce this phenomenon by ourselves ?

    @the-MOUSE Doesn't affect us. We don't keep a ton of KCl at home. We don't even use KCl except for replacing NaCl, and we hardly do if we're really Peaters‐ as we like salt and we don't have to substitute it with KCl. There are other things we could do with our time.

    @Hearthfire said in Kurzgesagt argues that exercise does not cause weight loss: Anyone who denies that calorie deficit + working out = weight loss, is FAT. Fair. With a possible rebound and disoriented sense of need at an extreme. If a person wants to rest a regime. But the opposite is a (mainstream) anomaly in many.

    I couldn’t really digest starch until I decided to start combining it with a moderate amount of fat, now it digests perfectly. Try making your own fries/chips using coconut oil and butter adding butter to rice etc. A baked potato with plenty of butter. When I have rice or potatoes without much fat it is often a gamble whether it will digest well.

    @wester130 I'm no expert on this, but I think it's strongly related to hair loss, but then again K is related to nearly everything. Mg is probably more important to counteracting the effects of excess Ca than anything. And Mg helps preserve K as well.

    @short_hope I drink 1.5+ liters of whole milk, orange juice, grape juice, lots of coffee w/ milk (throughout the day), occasional coconut water, fizzy drinks with sucrose/glucose. Fluid content in the foods we eat (whole fruit, etc.) is often not included as it should be (or not easy to quantify) when people think about their fluid intake. I grew up with parents very interested in health food and maintaining good hydration. And I raised my children pushing frequent water consumption on them, which I now regret (before reading Ray Peat on 'salt to taste' and dangers of excess water intake). I think excessive worry about dehydration and excess water intake worked against my health objectives. I'm now feeling like good metabolic health has been finally achieved (last 5-8 years) after stopping water drinking. Of course still using water to cook soup/broth, boil potatoes, etc.

    @cs3000 May be key to use IR light that includes 8-10 uM wavelength , IR-C https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-48187-0 which is weird because only a tiny amount of IR-C comes from the sun, and doesnt penetrate skin as well as ir-A or B. but was the wavelengths that worked on mitochondria in epithelial cells [image: 1721285996407-4e1665e9-e423-4dc6-967c-da8be1b716b8-image.png] humans might emit infrared around 9-10 uM though which matches the mitochondria study https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_is_the_IR-radiation_emitted_by_the_human_body & the embryo study used a lamp "at wavelengths ranging from 1 μm to 14 μm, with a peak at 2.9 μm."
