Ate a lot of parsley growing up.

You shouldn't want massive wrists at that age. You will loose the youthfullness.
Youthfullness = higher lifespan.
If a person says you look younger, you most probably look healthy.
Now society is backwards. Teens want to look mature 30 years olds. -
So you are saying there’s nothing wrong with me? People tell me I look athletic or at least used to before I feel down into this hole.
If you have at least a masculine face is that a good sign overall??
A lot of people online often think i’m a woman it’s just worrying me at this point. But I always just got told I’m like a 12 year old. I know Dr Peat or the forum talked about chimpanzees vs bonobos. If you know what I mean.

@questforhealth
Masculine for today's standards is not healthy at all.
You are probably fine. -
So wanting to be like my dad and uncles who grew up farming and had really thick wrists etc isn’t really ideal at all?
Or do you mean something else?

there is nothing more to this other than the fact people assume someone with flowers in their profile pic is a woman, that's all it is.
-
Too bad for them. Had someone messaging me thinking they found a christian wife or something
Always thought flowers represent transformations and rebirth or something along those lines..

why can I suddenly eat chilli peppers and barely feel it

We share similar issues. ADHD symptoms, severe fatigue, and digestion issues. I found my ferritin tested low. The research I've seen suggests the ideal way to supplement iron is in the morning every other day so maybe try that. It isn't recommended to take it without a ferritin test though. In my case, the iron hasn't been helping much.
-
Maybe you need a slightly higher dose. Have you tried a bit of B1 alongside it? I'm finding after having ZERO stomach acid my stomach acid is actually starting to work again on this combination.
Be careful though. Don't need too much iron. Maybe someone else can say something more helpful.
-
Have you tried custard or condensed milk? These foods have helped me when I was at my worst.
Have you tried green tea? If you have heavy metals this can help, but I overdid it and burnt myself out.
-
@questforhealth I'll try out b1 with iron. Have you considered adding a bit of niacin? It stimulates stomach acid release.
@questforhealth evaporated milk is one of the key things I've been using. I prefer it over condensed milk.
In the past I used green tea extract. Never felt much from it. Green tea lowers iron btw
-
I do take a bit of niacin actually. Helps a lot.
Recently I am trying brazil nuts and raw garlic for mercury toxicity. Garlic works as well as pharma drugs for chelatinf heavy metals. And it’s just food so no horrible side effects. Selenium from nuts helps bins to mercury too?
I need to try brazil nuts, garlic and B1 for a month or two to see what happens.
I think it’s important to know nature gave us everything we need to get healthier and have optimal brain function.
-
@questforhealth I've heard there is so much natural variation in selenium for Brazil nuts that they shouldn't be relied on.
-
well idk I just eat how many I crave. senses can’t lead us to the wrong places. god gave us them for a reason
-
Well well..
Trying to eat more selenium and I already notice a difference and it's been two days. I wonder where this will lead me.
-
Still feeling absolutely exhausted. No idea if there’s a way out of this or anything. I hope there is.
-
Ate some nice liver and kidneys today. Time to repair the damage from charlie’s ‘detox’ program. Charlie is just telling us to do dangerous stuff... Put up with bad symptoms to get a pay off later...

Hey Man, I had the same symptoms as yours, I couldn't digest anything, everything felt stuck.
I was reacting badly to almost every molecule inhibiting serotonin transporters.
I had the same exact problem with B1, it improved my symptoms short term before giving me severe anxiety. I tried every co-factor and almost every supplement on the market, as well as psychedelics, but nothing helped until I discovered Agmatine sulfate and Magnesium L-Threonate (I insist on this form as other magnesiums did nothing).
Those two are NMDA antagonists, and I suspect that I had very sensitive NMDA receptors as I was literally getting tense and severly anxious from taking glutamine, L-Theanine or NAC.
After starting Agmatine and Magnesium L-Threonate, I was able to take 200mg of Sulbutiamine without any side effect. My lifetime chronic anxiety disappeared, and I was finally able to digest without having everything hurting my gut and making me lethargic.
You may also be interested in looking at the god gene hypothesis and how this gene impact the amount of monoamines in the brain, leading to more "mystical" experience but maybe also more serotonin.
Selenium also helped me a lot, especially at maintaning a good body temperature, I always had cold extremities that disappeared after starting 400mcg of selenium l selenomethionine, I reduced to 200mcg after a few weeks, and now I don't take it anymore as I can absorb enough from food.
Edit : Brazil nuts did nothing for me, supplemeting Selenium did. I think that the selenium in brazil nuts is not a reliable source as it is poorly absorbed by the body, even more with digestive issues.
-
What a coincidence. I was just reading about NMDA receptors.
I definitely will try up the dose
of selenium. I also love eating kidneys which are a good source of selenium and probably easier digested?I wonder if the bottom line is this is all a problem with mercury. I was reading about how mercury toxicity impacts NMDA receptors.
