@dapose awesome. And for whatever reason I meant the national / us admin not this forum

@IkeIkeforever
Yes his preludes and overtures are fantastic. Bruckner's symphonies are sacred. I love death metal but it usually makes me happy and gives stress relief. Different for different people, but there are studies linking metal to increased blood flow in the brain and better stress reduction.

@IkeIkeforever yeah it's good to be conscious and not always have music. It's kind of a medicine. Check out Wagner and Bruckner, very good for existential and or anger/confusion pain.

Nails

Great band but yes, very angry stuff. Metal is so broad, there's a lot of other music out there too. Consider fruit and sugar to get energy up.

@dapose said in Forum seems kinda dead... What other forums do you guys use:

I’ve also heard that 75~85% of the internet is just bots and ai talkings to itself…
I would love to meet human beings for coffee and cheese and high level discussion of how to end digital culture and demilitarize society.
And how to grow more fruit trees. I got a few people in my real world to bounce off ideas with thank god. But I need a Peat Gang. Pronto. Si?

I'm just assuming I'm not talking to a computer / AI, but yes, you're right. Dead internet is apparent. This new great admin I think is pulling some wool over the algos' eyes.

On fruit trees - have you seen The Wicker Man? An island in Scotland founded by a radical scientist who revives paganism and - hint - fruit trees. Sounds eerily reminiscent of the Soviet citrus program in Georgia. When the crop inevitably fails their folk ideology requires human sacrifice. All these off-grid ideas seemingly lead to variations of The Lottery / Girard-ian Scapegoating / Wicker Man / Lord of the Flies situations. One of the most disturbing things about the movie is that both systems are at peace: the pagan village has a worthy sacrifice, and the truly devout Christian becomes a martyr.

@samson said in Anabology Honey Diet & Protein Restriction:

an unexpected result was that I find myself urinating much less, and when I do, I have very little foaming, which would probably be expected when consuming low protein. I will admit that the fasting portion of the diet is pretty brutal, especially coming from drinking milk by the quart, but i think you'd get the same anti-inflammation and metabolism-boosting effects, just without the weight loss omitting it.

I noticed slightly more frequent urination, but I was plenty hydrated. I second your comment on clear breathing - it just seems to go with getting a big dose of energy from the fruits and sugar.

@James

I think dreams drive creative impulse for many people myself included. This usually means less caffeine but more sugar and sunlight. Also, I have this hunch that serotonin is tied to day-dreaming and napping. Not 100% on that, but I enjoy an occasional nap and day-dreaming or at night dreams I feel are very provocative for creating.

At the same time, depending on what you're creating, yes, caffeine, sugar and nicotine are definitely handy. I miss smoking sometimes but yeah, cigarettes/cigars, coffee, sugar, Coke, aspirin.

@nothingclever

Because you mentioned skin and itch/irritation I'm linking this:
https://learninggnm.com/SBS/documents/skin.html

I was recently reading about skin outbreaks, rashes, etc. This page covers a lot of skin conditions including the ones you mentioned in the GNM perspective.

Questions you may consider: Why were you doing vegan diet? Why cleanses and "detoxing?"

If your blood work is good, allergen test is good, and there is no fungus in your environment, consider the cause is elsewhere. Food may be related. I would say fruit and cooked vegetables/greens might help. Gelatin and collagen from broth seems like a good idea. I know alcohol gives me histamine/inflammation reactions so rarely ever drink.

As an aside the page mentions plantar warts. Strangely enough I had this once. It was there for several months and became painful (bottom of the left foot metatarsal area). I had recently moved and left a relationship and was homesick for both. It became painful when I was once again very far from my new home. I had it frozen off after returning, and it didn't come back. I think I was moving on. It may sound a little like wishful or magical thinking, but I think this is one or two things that I've found consistent with GNM.

@Serotoninskeptic said in Anabology Honey Diet & Protein Restriction:

Im interested in trying this out but wondering your takes on it.

Saw this a few months back and decided to try a version of it.

My thought is that it requires too much consumption. It may be better to cycle between days with night-time protein and days with morning protein/fat. Granted I don't make time for elaborate breakfast and usually have coffee / fruit anyways. But, given two weekend days and five workdays, I think most people could see this as a format that could be cyclical.

I had coffee/sugar/milk, dates, mandarin oranges in the morning; cheese, occasional bread, Coke, apples for lunch; potatoes/meatloaf and/or milk for dinner. It "works" pretty well.

However, I think my blood sugar was a little too high a few times. I also think it is hacking into the metabolism sort of like cold air intake on an engine...basically just throwing fuel on a fire. I think steady is what's sustainable. I'm not mistaking steady for pufa-ridden, inflamed, depressed metabolism either because that is not good "steady."

In other words I probably have slower metabolism in general though I've been trying to eat low-pufa Peaty stuff for the last few years. I think I read somewhere that more glucose and sugar means you need to have more nutrients available to be absorbed. So it seems natural that it's better to do some like 70/30 carb to fat or carb to protein in meals too.

@GreekDemiGod said in Anabology Honey Diet & Protein Restriction:

Don't listen to young people about diet. What is he, like 25? At that age' everything works.

my thoughts exactly. Anyone under 30 is pretty adaptable.

@Atman the best part to me is seeing how Peat was interested in almost all fields and disciplines. You feel like you're reading a living library when you see certain texts mentioned by vastly different people.

@dapose said in How can I be a good doctor in modern medicine?:

My experience with every person I know and all my family members and all friends family members, I have never heard of anyone ever getting a clear answer from a doctor what is wrong with them or what they can do to help themselves. In fact medicine seems to be so broken that they are trying to just get AI to take it over so they can mask how inconsistent and “difficult,” diagnoses seems to be.

Agree. And I despise the conflict shock (see GNM) that doctors are giving people. When a doctor finds cancer and gives a life expectancy, that should be criminal. Somebody with cancer is living just fine, with some pains, until the doctor basically sends them into a panic attack. Very sick yet it "seems right," because of our "anti-cancer" "war on disease" perspective.

@ImTheRange

I'm inspired by some physical therapists who mentioned they helped people move and heal when actual MDs wanted to give people drugs and keep them in the hospital. I don't know how bad actual MD practice is when it comes to anti-truth and pro-harm, but I would say the Hippocratic oath shows what medicine should be, and I read that it is not really emphasized anymore. Is it? PT, nutrition, etc seem to be aligned health disciplines that pay well and can be very effective if not more than what standard MDs actually do. Obviously surgeons/emergency crew, and university researchers seems to have good avenues.

The MD gave me a mild painkiller but the PT ensured I didn't have to keep taking it. I don't hate MDs or mistrust them entirely but every doctor is totally different. The system seems very libertarian - could be very hands off or very hands on depending on what they believe.

@ThinPicking said in German New Medicine:

I certainly don't for the suggestion that CT scanning can be used trivially. Or that the context around the presentation of a conflict or shock isn't to be considered.

I wonder about the CT scan story especially. On the one hand, if the university / professional medical authority knew that CT scans could be possibly contributing to the shock or to the growth of cancer in the first place, then it makes sense why they would shut down Dr. Hamer quickly. It is actually illegal to practice GNM in Austria and possibly other countries in Europe. But it seems clear there was a cover-up and an intention to shut his work down. A theory needs to be tested before being shown as nonsense. On the other hand, I suppose this is my skepticism, the story of his son dying at the hand of an Italian royal, just sounds like lunacy. Is it even true? Was his son murdered intentionally for what Dr. Hamer was exposing?

Maybe it sounds like quackery, the sort of thing propped up by writers of nonsense in order for alt-health people to cling to to damage their own health. They'll see GNM as true automatically, because it was suppressed. But at a basic level, I think GNM is showing links to ancient medicine, whether Greek, Chinese or Indian. None of these systems live in an antiseptic white building, though, so there's already something organic and more "life-like" about them.

@ThinPicking said in German New Medicine:

GNM alone seemed to imply the amplitude of a dis-ease response doesn't matter. Which made me wonder, because it could be "loud" enough to end someone.

Yes. I remain skeptical but somewhat hopeful of GNM. I think in one of Sell's podcasts they talk about how covid was a "death shock" conflict for so many people, which is accurate, given how the gov-media was literally trying to shock everyone into thinking they could die if they got sick. Then they relate that death shocks are linked to the lungs because one loses their breath or hyperventilates in panic situations. The covid / ventilator memoryhole is similar because it was literally talking about respirating / ventilating people. So the entire agenda of "I can't breathe" and "difficulty breathing" symptomatology seems like a sick joke from elites who know these simple facts.

The difficulty of "proving" it seems to be irrelevant. I think everyone remembers how much insanity, gaslighting and fear-mongering was happening, so I think it is pretty inseparable from what happened then, or after.

At the same time I think the body is very resilient. Even though our environment is being trashed and polluted, there is no utopia. Damage is inherent in function and life, just as much as repair and hope seem to be at the root of biological growth.

@Marcine said in German New Medicine:

Dr Melissa Sell is easier to consume info on this than the German presenters. Mind-body medicine is NOT quackery and has been proven many times to work, including my own experience. NET is another example at healing cellular trauma. Remember-water has memory, cells hold onto our trauma. Flower Essences (NOT essential oils) also use this principle to heal emotional issues. We are vibration, which is basically how biochemistry works as everything has a vibration.

Yes she seems to have a good grip on "practical" application of GNM and a good podcast introducing it.
A physical therapist mentioned bio-psycho-social as a newer model through which they and some chiropractors are working. Very interesting given the idea of a "placebo" effect. The problem with "placebo" is that it assumes the mind has zero influence on the body, which is ridiculous. If psychiatry were serious, they might prescribe sugar pills instead of actual pharmaceuticals to people whose condition was not extreme, in my opinion.

The Cartesian mind-body dualism health paradigm is doomed. The bio-psy-soc model seems similar to GNM though more generalized. Either way I believe both are pointing in the right direction, because some of the basic ideas like the idea of spine and shoulders related morals, stress, injustice, did ring true for me.

No exaggeration, though the PT helped physically, I would say they were working on the important psychological problems. Psychiatrists, however, are more or less trying to solve nutritional problems. Actual medical doctors seem to be "solving" financial problems. The insurance is their "solution" to whatever the patient actually chooses. Similar to how each branch of the military is in charge of a different one. That seems to be what has happened in healthcare and biology

@Luke MM is a fraud / psyop too, fairly sure.

@peatlegal

the carrot is supposed to be long shreds.
my experience - caused bloating and indigestion. I eat a fair amount of bread which is haram for Peaters, but I can tell you the carrot salad was not good for me.
however, I can say if you are eating lots of fried food and pufa then any raw carrot will probably be good. I would say fresh veg / carrot has refreshed me after pufa heavy foods.

@ThinPicking said in Did bioenergetic principles impact my emotions and behaviors?:

And with the memory you can stay out of a space that could be described as a kind of emotional liability*. There's probably a corresponding and undesirable endocrinological signature to that.

I noticed a few times eating too much sugar that this was an issue. That said, I have almost never given into cravings in this ordered / logical way since childhood.
My interest now is that with bioenergetic nutrition, we can free up energy to "solve" health issues which can be just about anything. This goes back to how there isn't some dogmatic dietary plan. Like the craving being a message from the body, I think it's a good idea to "listen to your body" and then understand what each part or organ / tissue is doing.

@ImTheRange

Interesting. My assumption is that bioenergetic dietary changes will act differently for different people depending on their life situation, emotions, stress, etc. but are a net positive. Maybe it is that you are able to confront or experience emotions better now?

Not to meme out here, but the whole "calcification of the pineal gland" meme, comes to mind. Who knows what, if anything, is true about this whole idea (or aluminum and fluoride / Alzheimer's / dementia, etc). But without a doubt we can all agree that brain function can be declining or improving.

Related is the fact SSRIs often turn people into "zombies" and flatten their emotions. My view is bioenergetic principles sort of undo what the body has done to adapt to stress. In this way it's like increasing the bandwidth to accept a greater range of frequencies that make up experience. Stress / poor adaptation, SSRIs, drugs, etc., a lot of this stuff is as if "reducing bandwidth" in order to limit what information enters the organism, in order to limit stressors and potential conflicts that would make resolution and recovery more difficult.

So, I think, again, Peaty bioenergetic principles open up the bandwidth, allowing us to accept ranges of experiences, good or bad or otherwise.
