Blossom just posted her own before and after photos as a supposed “advertisement” for how well Garrett Smith’s diet works. I’m sorry to say but I find the after quite shocking.

Before - on Ray Peat diet

After 5 years of Garrett Smith

This is from here https://raypeatforum.com/community/threads/ray-peat-and-toxic-bile-theory-in-what-way-do-these-philosophies-differ.52792/

It would be really helpful if we knew exactly what she was doing in her version of the “Ray Peat diet” wasn’t she on estrogen at one point? – Definitely not peaty. This massive weight loss has been achieved by periods of fasting. This is not just a low vitamin A diet this is also extreme dieting. Extreme weight loss can have a down side. As the saying goes........

I think Mike Fave's recent video basically touched on that idea. These people change too much at one time to ascertain the true nature on why they feel better. And more than likely it has something to do with getting foods out of their diet that was causing intestinal irritation or that otherwise just didn't digest well. Honestly alt health spheres are at a bad point when they change everything about their lifestyle and then pinpoint the lack of an essential vitamin to why they feel better. Standard American Diet isn't even that fucked up. I digress.

I may be wrong here, but I don't necessarily think it's dangerous for post-menopausal women to take estrogen provided they're also taking progesterone too. They basically need full hormone replacement therapy, not just estrogen by itself.

You are right, Mike Fave did cover those points in his video.

I disagree about estrogen - there was an exhaustive discussion about this on this thread on the RPF.

@Mulloch94 Thank you so much.
I don't know how I would have gotten out of the state I was in without finding Ray Peat or Georgi.
The young adults behind me in the photo are some of the children of my multi-decade clique of friends. Unfortunately, when I saw my friends, their parents, my heart skipped a beat. They are all into low-carb. Sugar is evil. What I saw were shrunken friends. Literally, shrunken heads. Thick skin on atrophied wiry bodies. Even thinner chins. I am by no means gloating. I am heartbroken to see my friends not see this. They also tend to pound hard liquor. Straight scotch. Straight bourbon. One of them was in a wheelchair with MS. Another bald and rattling like a tree. Only one of my old friends said he was way into bio-hacking and health. But drumroll: ice-bathing and low-carb. I really would like to be able to help my friends.

I think a vast majority of estrogen's detrimental effects are likely because doctors prescribe the wrong type. This is something doctor Michael Platt as discussed in his interviews on various pods. There's almost never a good reason to prescribe anyone estradiol. And women can get the vaginal benefits without the pro-tumor side effects from using estriol cream. But no matter what estrogen is used it should still be matched with progesterone.

I feel your pain and frustration. I'm only 30, and most of my friends are only in their late 20s or early 30s and I see many of them doing things not conducive of long-term health in my opinion. I think, at the end of the day, it is best to do what we can by gently pushing advice on them that may seem controversial to their perspective, but never to go overboard. Because when the rubber meets the road, they gotta be the ones to want or desire change, we can't do it for them. It can be frustrating, but it's also good to take a step back and realize health can be a quest, or journey. For example I haven't always been where I'm at. I had rough beginnings. I'm all too familiar with that "ice bath low-carb" thing your friend is doing, lol.

I wonder when Charlie will gloat about the first person that successfully detoxed their child by killing them. This is absolutely astonishing - "hey, look my child is constantly vomitting and having green diarrhea. Bet none of your kids are detoxing this hard "

ThinPicking

Yea... what the hell.

S.Holmes

@Kvothe This is dreadful. DHS removes children from homes in situations like this.

Regina

@ThinPicking So, what exactly are these CWEBF members puking and pooping?? And it's from taking niacin? Anything else?

@abhi Did you get this resolved? Sorry, I spilled a coke on my laptop and have been offline....

@risingfire

It's from the old playbook. Just as the world slowly warms up to Ray Peat's ideas, with notable personalities such Mercola embracing the anti-PUFA message, it's not just coincidence that the bioenergetic community formed around RPF has become divided.

There are no coincidences (quoting Harry Bosch).

@yerrag

I agree for many reasons including contemporary politics, but also I can't find any other explanation for the attempted character assassination of Ray Peat.

yerrag

@C-Mex

He dies. I would dare to say under a cloud of mystery.

And then his name is besmirched by none other than a health forum website that bears his name.

And now a fledgling community has splintered.

Divide and conquer?
Hijacking? Co-opting?
Then watering it down?
Then pushing it further into the fringe never to see mainstream daylight?

Slowly and steadily suffocating the spirit to death.

@Peatful

I feel I know Tara well enough. I know how she writes. Her persona became wooden as seen in her writing. Like someone was ghost writing for her online impersonification. Her being a nurse does not necessarily make her automatically indoctrinated into the COVID Hoax narrative.

Once someone who identity is concealed is targeted, it's just a matter of time for the powers that be to replace the real person behind that online persona. What is all this technology developed by DARPA for but to make the safety of anonymity a honeypot to attract leaders of the genuine opposition, only to entrap and eradicate them when the moment is ripe, the moment being when they start to gain a following that is a budding threat to the established order.

@yerrag I'm not sure that a new Charlie is at the helm. Charlie has evolved quite a bit over the years. I saw the biggest change(besides low VA) when he became the "Law and Order Admin." I doubt he would severely change up the forum like he has now unless there was significant financial incentive for him to do so.

I'm not sure if it's traffic to Garrett's site for customers which most likely wouldn't pay that much.

He is the owner of the Lifegivingstore that he has been promoting on the forum for years while never being transparent about it.

Fear can make even the best of us crazy and stupid.

@yerrag

Yeah, I wasn't even thinking about his mysterious death. Those that expressed suspicion on the RPF were drowned out, a year later 'Charlie' proclaiming he died of 'by his own sword'. How convenient to undermine and discredit when no one can know how many healthy years he may have added to his life or what predispositions he may have had, just like all of us.. And he didn't die young by any stretch, but still very mysterious.

I'm thinking confuse, divide and conquer. My only question is whether the forum was coopted later or was established by design. As we know -- although Peat rarely spoke of it -- he's been of interest to the powers that be since his establishment of Blake College.

Is there any truth to the rumour that his house was broken into and papers ruffled before he was interviewed by the guys filming On the Back of a Tiger? Then the film was never actually completed, just the raw footage released

I remember them joking in the footage that everybody they interviewed before Peat had passed away recently. They were old, yes, older than Peat, but still it was odd. More coincidences, and these ideas clearly threaten government in bed with an industry desperate to maintain authority and control the public "trusted" narrative, and their censorship tactics are now being exposed showing just how desperate they are.
