@LetTheRedeemed
Just noticed your posts. Good Peat quotes. Thank you. -

@Mossy found this:
Some studies show it just about negates the value of the milk you have with it, so you probably have to eat extra milk--more than you think--but two quarts of milk takes care of just about everything. — Ray Peat
This just hit me — 2 quarts of milk per serving of oat bran! That Peat quote notes "...the milk you have with it...", which implies not just 2 quarts of milk in a given day.
-
@Mossy yeah, the oatbran recipe calls for around a half cup or so, and he’s saying that the nutrients, like calcium, in a half cup doesn’t cover it.

@Samyo if you’re suffering from a nutrient deficiency that could be contributing to the acne. You’re eating something that’s good for your metabolic rate, but with a nutrient deficiency like lack of vitamin a, you can develop acne. Ray talked about research showing that a faster metabolism burns thru nutrients faster and that causes some issues with skin. Weekly liver and a few oysters should hit those nutrient requirements.
-
@Samyo You probably have a high pH in your intestines, which promotes the growth of opportunistic bacteria that, by fermenting fibers, release high levels of endotoxins.

@LetTheRedeemed I just got my 2nd blood test results
Ferritin levels now at 388, it dropped from 488 I ate more meat prior to the first test, and less on the 2nd test..
B12 went up for 982 to 1044
And my folate levels were on the low side at 4ug/L I dont eat any green veg, I use to.
She said to eat more green vegetables
Everything else is in range
Any of these known to cause constipation? skin rashes/inflammation/smelly sulpur armpits?
Its not acne, I think more Seborrheic dermatitis

You lack potassium and a useful substrate for the intestinal flora
- Potassium:
The ratio between sodium and potassium will determine fluid and electrolyte dynamics, blood pressure activity, nervous system output and energy production and utilization. - Fiber
25-30 g fiber is required to optimize microbiome. But not now.
Sulfur odor is the sign the second part of your colon is invaded by phila which have nothing to do there. - Consequence:
Your adrenal glands react to this situation.
Connection between the brain and the stomach through the vagus nerve.
PS: I'm not going to develop, and how to deal with. Guess why!?
NB: Of course, if you suffer from gut irritation, you’re not starting with adding insoluble fibers.
We need first to calm down the overexpression / the overgrowth of some bacteria where they shouldn’t be.
In summary: Weaken – kick and push out.
Coordinated and planned tactic, which results in a structured scheme:
Weaken (deprivation of resources but not complete abstinence)
Organize to knock out (limiting the ability to adapt)
Machin-gun (with increased die-off) + assistance to evacuate LPS endotoxins
Consolidation (nutrients useful to ensure diversification of commensal bacteria + enhancing peaceful communication through the vagal nerve between the brain and the stomach).
Occupy the place (diversified menus and possible contributions of specific strains depending on the terrain, e.g. if you suffer from allergies / histamine intolerance or not. - Potassium:

I am definitely not the blood test whisperer, but I believe ferritin under 40 is great, so you may want to lower it. Maybe that could negatively impact your liver, causing some symptoms? Iron causes oxidative stress. Eggs and milk are food sources that lower iron, copper helps iron metabolism, so that’s good to consume with sources like liver/oyster. Aspirin is good at lowering iron — always take with vit K.
Any of these known to cause constipation? skin rashes/inflammation/smelly sulpur armpits?
I don’t know about that particularly, but I know that your symptoms generally point to stress hormones. Without more competent blood reading by someone like Danny Roddy or Jay Feldman, I’d focus less on fixing those symptoms with nutrients or supplements, and more on fixing the metabolism that promotes those symptoms (yes they can point to causal factors).
I’d focus more on fixing the gut, liver, and thyroid — that seemed to be Ray’s principle concern. He believed that nutrient wackamole was a lesser solution, and often misguided. Yes, A, D, K, mag, cal, copper, etc deficiencies can cause metabolic annd other issues, but that’s fixed easily with food.
Its not acne, I think more Seborrheic dermatitis
You could try something topical for that in the meantime to manage symptoms or hopefully kill a potential infection, but it often comes down to compromised metabolism in the skin that makes one susceptible to infections like that.

Ive been ray peating for like 7 years now I eat all the peat recommended foods, not much more of his recommendations left
I think the seb derm is from coffee alone, I notice the redder with more coffee

You might research how L. Reuteri bacteria can help SIBO. The Lifeway kefir contains this bacteria.
Also, you might look at probiotics that contain Rhodopseudomonas palustris. This bacteria is able to entrain bad bacteria into becoming good bacteria, that is bacteria that normally create toxic metabolites will start creating nutrients and antioxidants instead. Some products that contain R. palustris are SCD Essential Probiotics and TeraGanix Pro EM-1. I recommend the SCD product over the Teraganix, but both will work.
