    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

    @wester130 because then you get the bad effects associated with cabergoline, which don't exist with bromocriptine

    @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.

    @mostlylurking refined coconut oil works a treat for deep frying. i’ve made really nice chicken tenders and fries with it. regular coconut oil seems ok for oven fries, but refined is probably better for higher temps.

    @voldtzeig said in Carrot salad as replacement for Brushing your teeth: @CurmudgeonApple Would you need fluoride for hydroxyapatite to remineralize aswell or would hydroxyapatatite toothpaste work without the fluoride? It would depend on the state of your enamel. apatites are just a building block of a tooth, so if your enamel is considerably demineralised, the hydroxyapatite of calcium or other mineral has nothing to bind to and in that situation, the only thing that will reverse it is a fluoride treatment, toothpaste, etc, and if it's severe to the point of almost dentin exposure, then your only recourse is probably stannous fluoride, which might even save it, and after a few months of that you can switch to hydroxyapatite or something less drastic. If you don't have any demineralisation then you don't technically need fluoride at all as the minerals from your dietary choices will deposit into saliva and bind to tooth enamel no problem

    @CheesedToPeatYou Yes. They use chlorine and other nasty things at dilute concentration to clean carrots. Sometimes, not always. I wouldn’t recommend you repeat the experiment unless you truly have a dedication to anecdotal science, but perhaps next time you are forced to buy carrots out discard the skins first.

Also Ether, God & Devil & Cosmic Superimposition and The bion experiments. There is a publisher reprinting most of his works in affordable paperbacks, that's where I would start.

    @Hando-Jin said in Does tanning age you even in an absence of seed oils?: @sphenoid said in Does tanning age you even in an absence of seed oils?: @Hando-Jin the process of UV light turning the cholesterol in the skin into the precursor to vitamin D. Too much UV and not enough cholesterol synthesis in the skin will eventually deplete it. Why not enough cholesterol synthesis is what I'm trying to understand. Has anybody answered that? I heard Ray say it was just down to age. Age, stress, nutritional deficiencies. Most people are probably inefficient at replacing cholesterol in the skin. That's why topical lanolin is a blessing for not only supplying a substrate for vitamin D but to keep the skin youthful.

    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.

    @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.
