@patriarch said in baking soda & water retention: I love baking soda because I feel better after having it in my liquids but it seems to increase puffiness in the face. How to counteract this the peaty way? Last night I stumbled upon dandelion root being good for reducing water retention. Maybe the the greens would work just as well: "I use 550mg dandelion root to expel excess water from my body when getting ready for a photoshoot. If you're already in good/great shape it can help show a little more definition by making your skin ever so more "tighter". Of course, you're peeing nonstop but if you take it early in the day.. by night you are ready to go. " https://reviews.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientreview-706-DANDELION

I think it’s fine Joseph. For you in particular (humour) the benefits outweigh that concern. GeriCare has corn starch and many seem to prefer that brand. Keep taking it.

@dapose said in I love Dr. Peat so much: @Kilgore right but the Peat sphere is full of people Peating incorrectly no? So I thought it would be funny to call out the people scarring their arms and legs with peat imagery to show their true love and devotion to the one true Peat. In other words I thought it’d be funny. Humor is extremely Peaty. (Said with straight face) Alright then.

@ThinPicking hell yeah

@cs3000 said in Fog: ive never seen fog that thick before, and lasted through the daytime into night which ive never seen here Just for a bit of balance, I definitely have. Along with snow practically a blizzard, a snowy Christmas day and at least one hurricane. Among other bizarre atmospheric phenomena. England is great, I love England so much. i said "this feels like i'm in silent hill rn" With humour, this whole country can feel somewhat godforsaken at times.

I don't take iodine. I think Dr. Peat was right and it is generally not needed, and additional may suppress thyroid function.

@Mossy Thank you. I have heard of people on Reddit magically curing their gray hair from Iodine (and they didn't seem like Curezone nuts, just: "can someone explain this" type posts).

Last night I dreamt that I would make a completely meaningless post on this forum. And here I am.

I love Redbull but it makes me hyperactive and gives me terrible psoriasis if I do it too hard.

Stealing is great! They won't let us get away with it for long, so do it as much as possible.

Ha, ha ... Too short

Here is the YouTube recording. I have not listened to it yet. Remembering Ray Peat (2024)

@the_black_jew said in Peaty gift ideas for the upcoming holidays: @Luke that looks good When you search for it on the internet you always find recipes with cookies, but I myself have never eaten them with cookies, but with thin plates that have roughly the consistency of a host or communion bread you would get in church. Just chocolate, coconut oil, sugar and these plates.

@Lloyd for reasonable price, i kidnap him for you and bring him directly to you

@pannacottas no cypro is brutal at anything over 1-2 mg for me. Prog feels good especially if u sleep the whole 9 hours you wake up rested, but while resetting sleep there may be some groginess although prolly to do w the weird cycardian and short sleep time than the prog itself. If I was sleeping at 1 am and wanted to bring back to 10 pm id do prog and then sleep through the night, dose for that is 200 mg . otherwise if the schedule is too fucked then prog can be used to nap for 2-3 hours (400 mg w no tolerance) and then sleep at say 4 pm instead of 9 am the next day ( i find it much easier to just sleep later if the schedule is too bad than bring back sleep time more of less psycholagically brutal more than physical)
