What has Peating done for You?
-
@Fructose I have always been a bit cynical and also found a bit of an increase. As for learning, I feel that peating has enhanced the effectiveness and ‘speed’ if you will of the flow state. Most noticeable for me doing Uni assignments, if my nutritional ducks are in a row it is much much easier to lock in.

@The-New-Sun Ive heard a lot about the childlike state and have tried to focus in on what makes me feel the closest to it, for me probably has to do with stimulus/activity preceded by metabolism/hormones being in check. I certainly agree with the serotonin feedback loop, being able to nip it before it becomes detrimental has been huge for me too. I think what you describe is likely a part of my previous issues in my OP as well.

@interpsychic Improved quality of life and seeking novelty not routine.

Glycine and baking soda let me sleep, carrot salad makes me ~20% less autistic, MB half-resolved my persistent atopic dermatitis of 8 years

Peating gave me the ability to tan. Pale ginger sunscreen all the time as a kid, red blistering, skin peeling.
Now I can walk pretty confidently anywhere without worry or fear. It was also the first visual sign for my parents to see, I fell asleep on the couch in the sun. 2 hours, didn't get burnt O_O They still push back on a lot but they got to see that O_O -
@interpsychic Stumbling upon Ray Peat's work drastically changed my life. The comparison between myself now and 2 years ago is almost unfathomable.

i found rays work a few years ago, i was shitting blood and had terrible diarrhea. i went to the doctor and they did a stool test and he stuck his finger up my ass and told me i have IBS and i think he diagnosed me with chrons disease too. that week i found rays articles and the forum. I ate nothing but rice, milk, yogurt, salt, supplemented with a shit ton vitamin d3 and just layed out in the sun all day. my “ibs” was gone within a week of eating real food. to think if i had not found rays work and fixed my diet i would be on some zogpills right now and my life would be completely different.

Fairly positive experience with my "peating". For change I could mention some, seemingly, negative experiences. I used to be chubby since I have started toying around with "Peating" (spring 2020 or so) my weight was changing a lot, excessive gain here and excessive loss there; got stretch marks on my love handles because of this I guess
I always had immense plaque and tartar and dentist tried to alarm me every time. Especially an upper incisor had a lot of tartar but I never cared and had braces my whole teens (and a lot of extractions). I got my braces removed when I toyed around with very high dose k2 mk4 and they tried to grind off the glue from the teeth that the brackets of the braces left behind and I ended up with a third of my incisor's dentin being exposed after only few days past the doctors appointment . I think k2 mk4 has something to do with it because over the course of a few months very tiny bits on other teeth where I used to have tartar also chipped away. Well I cant blame "peating" for this but I essentially have no tartar anymore in a sense. "Peating" also clearly helped my oral health in other ways, though, for example my gums used to be completely dark-red inflamed (the gum above that tartar incisor specifically could start spontaneously bleeding by merely touching it) and my plaque build up was always insanely quick but my gum has become mostly pink, especially in the middle parts, my plaque developes slowly enough that Listerine twice daily could actually retain it to a very high degree. My edema stench has mostly vanished, white tongue has become a rarity (mostly just after milk consumption but that subsides of course and is benevolent). Peating "destroyed" my teeth while simultaneously keeping the sinking ship afloat somehow.
The incisor is irritating, not because I fear the optics but because I cant explain it with certainty. -
Peating significantly lowered my anxiety levels and significantly improved chronic sinus issues. I also feel more energetic but this may just be a consequence of lower anxiety.

Peating has worked wonders for me in every advertised way. I have more energy and muscles, and less stress and fat. My very being was in a state of depressed solipsism, while I now enjoy the experience of life with an open and curios zest(Pun intended).
