    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.

    @insufferable said in thoughts this article Metabolic Endotoxemia: The Link Between the Chronic Diseases and the Saturated Fats You Want to Avoid: I remember RPF posts that explained this by saying that saturated fat was actually clearing the endotoxin away or something and was actually good for endotoxin reduction. I don't know. I do know that coconut oil always makes my digestion great. Me too. Ray Peat was a big advocate for coconut oil and saturated fat, but a lower fat diet overall. I watched my father die young of heart disease after following the bad advice of doctors to only eat unsaturated fats after he had a heart attack at an early age. This study was entirely too technical for me, but... [image: 1712378243998-a14ff105-d38f-43f1-a6c7-bb491ef370c9-image.png] https://x.com/ChrisMasterjohn/status/1774506746788065456

    @Peatly Yes, I read that conversation. I think it was the salesman in him. He obviously is profit-driven and was likely looking to develop a 'better' product. Edit: I'm not a Mercola stan, but I think he is just a flawed perhaps egotistical individual with a profit-driven model of 'success'.

    @Sippy They were full of excipients if I recall correctly. So many things are these days. Do you know of any resources for interpreting the results and deciding how to correct imbalances? Regarding interpretation, I am no expert myself so I've relied on others knowledgeable to help me. I cannot vouch for everything this guy says but his videos on HTMA have been useful for me. If you want a real expert with a focus on mineral balancing, fertility, etc. then Andra is someone who you should consider speaking with. Her Twitter is a good resource for free knowledge. Andra is no stranger to Peat and the Bioenergetic community.

    @DavidPS It doesn’t have to be either or. You are right CoQ10 could have been studied and it was Coenzyme Q10 as Treatment for Long Term COVID-19 High-dose coenzyme Q10 therapy versus placebo in patients with post COVID-19 condition: a randomized, phase 2, crossover trial Clearly taurine helps in a way that q10 does not Functional Role of Taurine in Aging and Cardiovascular Health: An Updated Overview From the article "The beneficial effects of taurine on Ca2+ and sodium (Na+) handling [89,90,99,100,101,102,103], myocardial energetics [104,105], and cellular signaling pathways (including glucose transport, 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1, AKT, sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), FOXO3, p38, NFkappaB, and others) [106,107,108,109,110,111,112,113,114,115,116,117,118,119,120,121] are thought to underlie its major cardioprotective effects. Other mechanisms include the promotion of natriuresis and diuresis, most likely via an osmoregulatory activity in the kidney, a regulation of vasopressin release, and a modulation of the atrial natriuretic factor secretion [122,123,124,125]. In addition, taurine has been shown to attenuate the actions of angiotensin II on its downstream signaling pathways, on Ca2+ transport, and on protein synthesis [113]."

    @izkrov ? That is not associated with what I’m talking about. That study is not even associated with what im talking about either I agree with you that the difference isn’t huge. Although based upon the 2 responses you have sent me you did not read all the articles fully, then understood what they were talking about. The writing clearly states bone growth pauses because of caffiene.

    @TopicalsOnBalls said in Topical Solutions on scalp for hair regrowth: interesting, you’re not concerned of the downstream effects of minoxidil? im making sure to apply minoxidil away from the times i dermastamp, i wait 24 hours, the systemic aborbtion is very low from what ive read. i am a little concerned about downstream effects, i think haidut posted on RPF how some people are getting PFS from topical minox which is pretty scary. https://www.askapatient.com/viewrating.asp?drug=20834&name=ROGAINE+EXTRA+STRENGTH+(FOR+MEN) ive been on it for a few weeks now and my erections are fine and no sides so far. its by far the most effective pharmaceutical for hairloss and doesnt seem to mess with DHT so im taking the chance. @TopicalsOnBalls said in Topical Solutions on scalp for hair regrowth: Unique way to use coke, I’ve read about others getting glucose to the scalp by using a honey mask honey is too sticky and gets tangled in my hair. i filled a spray bottle with some coke and just spray it on my scalp and massage it in whenever i can remember, its just a convenient way to get some sugar on there. "Ray Peat: I've been thinking that with a concentrated glucose solution, you could probably activate hair growth just by keeping your scalp moistened with glucose."

    Study link Important to note that this is not a structural change. The post-exertion swelling of the feet is due to increased blood flow. If one were to walk for many hours, for many months, then you'd develop structural changes. Walking on a treadmill for three hours sounds like it sucks.

    SIBO can always cause unforeseen issues, but "transitioning" should be smooth. A good healthy diet wouldn't be that much different from a so called "normie diet." The biggest differences are what you're not eating. Processed foods for the most part. But more importantly seed oils, thickeners like guar gum, gellan gum, bean gum, arabic gum, xanthan gum, carrageenan, added phosphates like dicalcium phosphate, sodium phosphate, trisodium phosphate, phosphoric acid, etc. For many people citric acid will be a no go as well, also iron fortification. Vitamin fortification may cause issues with some people who are sensitive. Some people can tolerate whole milk but not low-fat milk (which is fortified). That's literally 95% of the work right there. Anything else is minuscule at best. And would more or less be "fine tuning" to your specific tolerances. Like, for example, some people don't respond to starch well, or grains. Some people can't handle dairy. Some do better with starch than fruit, etc.
