What is this forum here about?

Hi everyone,
I’m new here and just came across this forum while looking for information about DHT. I’m still not entirely sure what the Bioenergetic Forum is about though, could someone explain it to me?
Thanks!

Hi,
welcome.
Not sure someone will be able to summarize RP. There is no RP Diet.
I'll point out hormone and energy.
Excerpt:
"If something reduces the systemic ability to produce energy, there will be a gap between the available energy and the energy needed for the constant turnover of cells in each tissue and organ, and a generalized inflammation will develop. The replacement of cells will be slowed, and the organism will mobilize the processes used for producing scar tissue, producing an excess of collagen, filling the spaces left by the lost cells.
We are susceptible to many things that interfere with energy production---the substitution of iron for copper in the respiratory enzyme, the absorption of endotoxin, the accumulation of PUFA, a deficiency of thyroid hormone, the formation of increased amounts of nitric oxide, serotonin, and histamine, etc. Different environments will condition the way the defensive mechanisms of inflammation are produced."

When energy fails: Edema, heart failure, hypertension, sarcopenia, etc.

If you’re messed with steroid hormones, look first at the interconnection with cortisol and energy. Afterwards with thyroid.
Imbalances in adrenal stress hormone cortisol has a significant INHIBITORY effect on thyroid hormone function.
In order to understand this, one must understand the hypothalamic / pituitary adrenal axis (HPA), and the hypothalamic / pituitary / thyroid axis (HPT).

@ruben352 There was a biologist who was popular in alternative health circles named Ray Peat. He was an early popularizer of the idea that PUFAs are bad for you and not "heart healthy fats". He was also known for not thinking there's anything wrong with sugars and carbs and for talking a lot about the effects of stress and hormones on health. There was a forum about his ideas called the Ray Peat forum, but the owner Charlie who had no association with Ray Peat decided after 10 years that Peat's ideas didn't work and that vitamin A is a toxin, and banned almost everyone on the forum who disagreed with him. This forum was created in the aftermath for people who still subscribe to Peat's ideas.

@VehmicJuryman - Thanks for posting the the summary. I am one of the refugees from the former Ray Peat Forum (RPF). Its content is now at https://lowtoxinforum.com/. You need to be logged into the forum to use its search functions.

Ruben welcome. Here you have to like orange marmalade or we can discus why you don’t like orange marmalade… and other cool stuff.
A little trick I use to occasionally revisit threads on the old bastardized RPF is to just search engine, (I use Brave) search for topic + Ray peat forum. It should take you straight to a thread. And you don’t have to sign into that militarized think tank.
Welcome and peace. -
Thanks for your friendly post and the workaround for finding old post on the former RPF.
