@LucH Thank you! Will read and think more about it.
Was just thinking, is swelling on the cellular level and swelling of the lower legs the same thing? Can they be two different things?

RE: Swollen legs from sitting
@LucH Why do you recommend Niacinamide? Why in this case specifically?

RE: Swollen legs from sitting
@LucH Thank you. Very valuable.
Relatively early on my bioenergetics / ray peat adventure. Low thyroid and progesterone levels have been my suspicions for the underlying cause of the leg swelling since I came to this. With other typical signs it's clear to me that I would benefit from taking thyroid and progesterone.More sugar helped significantly for the swelling at first but effect weaned off after a few weeks. Will keep the earthing up as long as we're above freezing. Otherwise sticking to his diet recommendations for hypothyrodism.

Swollen legs from sitting
I struggle with swelling in my legs when I sit. Despite going for walks, stretches, etc my legs are swollen at the end of a work day. This has been the case since I started working about 10 years ago. I have found that grounding outside alleviates it but it's inconvenient and does not solve the underlying problem.
What do you think is the cause of this? How do you suggest to fix it? Has Ray talked about the problem?
