  @CrumblingCookie said: Wondering and curious about whether you are indeed developing tolerance via specific cytochrome upregulation or receptor downregulation. Or whether your subjective benefits are exhausting some other pathway or regenerative substrate, like choline or calcium or anything. Not sure. But I suspect its the liver becoming better at metabolizing it. Happens to me with many other supplements as well. Not caffeine though. So it seems to affect only cetain enzymes. I'll try dandelion next. Also finally found some good aged cascara, and it really does seem to be good for liver health.

  I noticed the reprint of Nutrition for Women says "100 short articles by Ray Peat, PHD," where the old one said "92...". What did they add to it? Also, note that From PMS to Menopause is for sale on Peat's website but not Amazon, and Peat's website doesn't have Generative Energy. Weird. I wonder if Katherine gets more of the money if you order from Peat's site. I'd imagine so.

  “Many people feel positive emotions in their organ nerve centers, for example the heart plexus and the solar plexus. The good feelings go with good functions. When the nerves cringe because of the presence of authoritarians, the nerve supply to the organs is impaired. Thinking of the offensive person is enough to do it. Food, activity, and feelings about your surroundings go together, and it’s important to listen to your viscera, to really participate in constructive living.” – Ray Peat The cringing of nerves blocking blood flow resulting in a stress reaction is obvious to me in the presence of some people (or a certain personality). Complete avoidance of these people is not possible and exposure therapy hasn’t worked so far. Has anyone been able to overcome this and if yes, how did you do it?

  I’ve been using two drops 8mg of thymoquinone of the current formulation right before bed on my tongue. Sleeping extra good. Don’t wake up at all until alarm clock except some recent thunderstorms. I replaced 4 drops of Kuinone on tongue before bed. I like the effects of Tuinone better. More calming. For black seed oil seems like if you had an extra strength oil 7.5% TQ you’d need about a teaspoon of the product and would be getting lots of Pufa and other things that aren’t thymoquinone

  @alfredoolivas Perhaps, but I'm not certain. I actually was eating a lot more kale recently (maybe 150g a day) for a week and I did notice I had lost some weight (like 5lbs), but I was also walking in nature more at the time. I'll try incorporating it more consistently and get back to you.

  @hawk1 okay you actually had agency & balls and settled with some pretty decent sources. It took you two months, but I’m proud of you if that means anything.
