The true way to derive nutrients out of brown rice and make it digestible is to soak it. And every 8 hours or so, change the water, doing this for about a day or 2.

@alfredoolivas Mauritio is referring to this one. I remember I was watching that thread when we were all there.
lowtoxinforum DOT com/threads/niclosamide-for-fat-loss-uncoupling.42781/page-6

BTW, no worries about his nonsense paywall. Simply using g00gle with a site exclusive search string (at least g00gle turns out to be good for ONE thing!) You can search for anything on that forum using this method.

Example: Niclosamide site:raypeatforum.com

Yes I also stick it to him by NEVER typing the low toxin blah blah title. That is RAY PEAT'S work he built that forum on. I will always type the old, true name.

And yes, I will never post actual inbound links to that forum. Leaving links only helps "his" forum's ranking.

@Mauritio said in Niclosamide reduces serotonin and glutamate:

Thanks, I'll look into US options.

@Mauritio sorry if I missed it, but where do you get this stuff from?

@paperclips43 these are good questions and thoughts you have IMO. I have been thinking about sleep and what they have been claiming to be correct for a while now.

I would say Al Gore's "predictions" were never predictions but a script handed to him as the dullard, puppet-boy he was to repeat an agenda that the elite knew they would use as crisis for the future 4th industrial revolution that is occurring as we speak. All crises in fact. Or, "crises." From bullshit pandemics that never were to so-called climate change. They use it all to implement change (that would otherwise be met with aggressive resistance by people if too abrupt), legislations for control, and cultural shifts. All this being tied together by powerful technology that satiates the complacent public as they get their memes, porn, and social media nonsense, which then said technology will be utilized for a powerful, centralized technocracy. You can always see the clues to that. You notice how Elon Musky Musk has become a "bad guy?" They love flipping the script so the sleeping public is never the wiser that certain individuals are banded together by this agenda. By the way, it was literally called agenda 21 that was pushed form the 90's til now. It included fake pandemics. They gave rise to even more recent events such as Event 201 that took place in NY at the end of 2019 talking about what would happen if a virus shut the world down.

This is a massive myth that growth hormone is anabolic in the sense like steroids. Growth hormone, as mentioned, is a stress mediator. To a certain, controlled degree, primarily by good thyroid function, some GH secretion is necessary as per the repair process. In young people, with epiphysis bone not having fused, it is primarily responsible for growth in that stage of life. By far however, insulin and T3 are the primary anabolic sources. Having sufficient vitamin D and carbs, in the context of oxidative metabolism, is what ensures lean tissue maintenance. With good OXPHOS, the weight loss is usually in the form of fat.

@DavidPS Thanks, and as always thanks for the supplementary info, that's perfect.

I am afraid this is another sleight of hand trick the industry likes to pull. I have spoken on this forum several times about progestins which are not real progesterone and essentially do not serve the same functions, other than occupying so-called receptors or the proteins that house either estrogen or progesterone depending on the organism health status. There is one important idea to understand and why the terms estrogen or progesterone "receptor" are misleading. Since, in one state the very proteins that had progesterone occupying them can be analyzed and used as a point of reference for estrogen and vice versa, again, depending on the health of the organism itself. Therefore, guess what they do?? Use the receptor reference interchangeably! So where estrogen is truly causing an issue, it can on some twisted technicality be referred to as "progesterone receptor."

But at any rate, what substances are they using we must ask?! It is NOT progesterone. So in many of these studies where they investigate this idea of blocking estrogen AND progesterone to help hernias, they are using "P4 analog."

"8658 Role of Progesterone Receptor in Skeletal Muscle Fibrosis and Hernia Formation in Mouse Models and Men with Inguinal Hernias"

Funny enough, these charlatans ALSO love using interchangeable terms to try and convey an idea of ONE thing, when it is not ONE thing they are referring to. SO, in these studies, they are using progestins, under the guise of P4 analog, and you will notice, such as in the study I posted above, they casually and IRRESONBILY mention P4, progesterone and P4 analog throughout. But because they are using progestins and asserting that estrogen is the culprit in hernias, it is safe to then and logical to conclude it IS all about estrogen and nothing to do with progesterone other than the imposter progestins.

The next thing to take note of is WHAT they used in using this study as an example, referring to this hernia issue. That is RU486. The substance that although has anti-progesterone activity, is also a major cortisol inhibitor. SO much so, that even Haidut had shown several articles about how it is used for several ailments, but due to its cortisol blocking action and consequently, its heavy estrogenic blocking ability what can see AGAIN, this has all to do with blocking estrogen.

What this hernia bullshit is, is just another way to demonize progesterone, because the truth of estrogen, AS THEY THEMSELVES admit to when you read the article in the OP, is becoming clearer and clearer. Aromatase and estrogen are the true players in developing hernias. They clearly state that. Rather than trying to stop that, the better method is public obfuscation and vilifying progesterone as well. And that is what sets up a confusing study.

It is a funny thing I remember Dr. Peat mentioning in an interview how DHEA, and progesterone and pregnenolone should be first line defenses against hernias!

You sound hyper cholinergic. Have you tried methylene blue and/or adamantane? Even if it is a utilization issue, SIBO can cause elevated serum B12 but meanwhile actually causing a b12 deficiency, perhaps not allowing full utilization of choline. Try something like those things, then approach the gut with the basic stuff: carrot salad, vinegar, coconut oil, charcoal, flowers of sulphur.
