Danny Roddy's twitter/X account has "disappeared"

@Corngold said in Danny Roddy's twitter/X account has "disappeared":
"take it with a grain of salt."
️ and it's just a bottle of tiny little 65mg capsules. Taken as needed for the evaluation of bullshit potential. -
@Corngold wild. People really just need to take more thyroid and progest-e
-
The Ray Peat community is very confusing. You never know whether "take it with a grain of salt" is an idiom or actual diet advice.
I've never been a big party attender, but I never went to a party where I didn't probably offend most of the people there by talking about what I was interested in. (Ray Peat)
-
I might hazard to say they're all physiological advisories in one way or another. I'm particularly fond of the old "don't let it go to your head".

I think it was Robert Anton Wilson the said, never 100% believe in your own bullshit. I’d say most of us get this sentiment here. I think most of the sick influencers who just took a crash coarse in Jack Kruse aren’t well enough to feel how narrow and inconsequential and maybe harmful their current bullshit path is. Which seems like what Danny is saying in telegram. In a weird way Carnivore dieting was the most preparatory path to Peat because you saw how bullshit most health advice in general is. And you do get a big boost in health and vitality for a bit and then you just look at the Bioenergetic world and you can chew on these ideas from a distance and try on what fits for you. I really don’t know how Peating would work if you were a normy and just started trying to do Peats approaches.

The Good Reset:I was a happy normie, 40 lbs overweight, who never tried CICO or carb restriction. I cut back seed oils, ate carrot salad, a daily aspirin, and took thyroid. I feel amazing.

@Corngold I think k1 is more effective for aspirin tbh .k2 mk4 works but k1 works better at way less dose (from leafy greens even, not even a supplement).
-
@sunsunsun Cooked leafy greens I'm assuming?
-
@Luke @ThinPicking Couldn't agree more.
@LetTheRedeemed You're very welcome buddy. I think all of us have stumbled and made mistakes on the "path" (as it were), every day is a learning experience. As @Corngold alluded to, "...one mans poison...", which I think clearly shows that we must be rigorous in assessing our own needs and reactions etc.
@ThinPicking love your humour!

@Ismail yes

@Luke lmao exactly. Don't get me wrong, it's a great space and area of research. But I think "avoid extremes" is at odds with Blake's quote about the road of excess leading to wisdom, or whatever it is. That's basically self-evident, but it's bad advice.
Take tattoos for example - no reasonable, wise, decent person advises a young person to get tattoos. I've never heard anyone with them recommend that I get them. They simply acknowledge they have them, and then maybe talk about their artistic or philosophic interests, romance, family, or religion, etc. A lot of times they don't even have a reason. It's peak "normie" activity. Point being "take progest-e and eat aspirin" is hardly any different.
Science reflects that more tattoos correlates to worse mental health, suicidality, substance abuse, etc. It reflects a path that has built-in co-morbidities and negative consequences.
That can't be said for the Peat-sphere in general, but it can be said of people acting without thinking and following "normie" mass culture, or any subculture for that matter.

great quote. For me, reading or seeing "carnivore" just took the guilt away from meat-eating. No exaggeration - I was always told butter, eggs, steak, and meat were really bad, raised cholesterol, all of that. I forgive the people who said this, but I was proceeding into a more carnivore territory when I began reading Peat
-
I'd like to do that more just to be safe - southern greens are the goat of "healthy" food. Is milk and dairy still a good k1 or k2 source?
I'm not worried about it but I take aspirin for headaches/muscle pain and if I "had" to eat a lot of pufa (holidays or social occasions).
-
@Corngold k2 mk4 isnt in high amounts in any food except fatted goose liver. brie has some as well as most other fatty dairy but im pretty sure its one of those things that kind of has to be supplemented for the doses required for the things it is known for in the literature.
for k1, find an Indian restaurant that uses only ghee to cook and order the Saag and take some eggshell with it to bind the oxalates or order the Saag paneer which has cheese blocks in it. It's the best way to eat a good amount of greens. I am not a fan of just sautéing spinach or kale and having it like that, it tastes pretty much disgusting to me to do that. This way is made with spices and sautéed onions and probably other stuff. It is actually obscenely good with flatbread.
There's also Palak paneer which is just spinach and cheese and it doesn't taste as good imo. Saag contains various greens and cabbage. It makes my sweat and urine smell like sulfur or something for days after but it has a significant positive effect on hair quality and for bleeding time from aspirin.
The cubes are cheese blocks, not butter, although there should be a decent amount of butter melted in there too when it is served. The picture doesn't look very appetizing because of the color balance and lighting.
This one is without the cheese and with a pat of butter on top. You would want to have this with a calcium source for binding oxalates. This picture looks better.

If I recall correctly, Ray said he assayed beef liver for K2 Contents and it was very high. I don't believe he published it
-
@sunsunsun
hmmm...not too sure about Indian food. -
@Corngold go eat some French fried potatoes and ham or something then, idk maybe being a k1 mogger isnt for you
