RE: How do I get rid of acne marks??
Dietary glycoaminoglycans from eating bone marrow and supplementing collagen can help you create new elastin and collagen in the epidermis
Azelaic acid, alpha arbutin, tranexamic acid can help with the redness and uneven skin tone
Tretinoin is hit and miss for scarring and if you go out into the sun without protection it can make things worse.
Wild Card solution:A surefire solution would be an extreme chemical peel like 15% trichloroacetic acid, or phenol, but i strongly advise you do not do this unless you can stay indoors for over a week and your moisturising, sunscreen game is on point. You could ruin your skin for life if you do not take any of these things deadly serious. no amount of Peaty interventions will save you from the fuckery this can cause to your skin if you do not use sunscreen even if indoors if you decide go through with this. The upside though is it will eradicate all scarring, discolouration and unevenness after only 2 applications applied a month or 2 apart. This is hardcore shit. If you have the money you can go to a derm and have them do it for you, but it's costly

RE: Carrot salad as replacement for Brushing your teeth
Very balanced view. Appreciated and i agree. In some situations there is no substitute for fluoride depending on the state of your enamel. You wont need to use it forever, but if you have some quite extensive demineralisation, you wont be able to get minerals to bind to teeth without fluoride toothpaste, applications, etc. I do wonder if swishing green tea and consuming raisins would be enough though as the latter contains calcium fluoride and green tea contains many different fluoride ions. Probably better than something like stannous fluoride, although stannous fluorides ability to bind minerals from saliva to teeth is still unmatched to this day. It's incredibly toxic if swallowed, but you only need an extremely small amount to brush with for it to be effective, which is a plus if not much of a plus. 3-4 months of that and then you can switch to nano-hydroxyapatite, or brushing with bonemeal powder may work too.

RE: Co2 boner vs nitric oxide boner
This is where the peat observations get a bit quackery for me..there isn't any means for the body to use CO2 to gain an erection. It is always nitric oxide. CO2 i think can be used for cerebral vasodilation which might explain why for some people who bag breathe it can relieve migraines, if the migraines are caused by constriction of blood vessels in the skull, but there isn't a mechanism i am aware of where the soft tissue in the penis can use CO2 to induce an erection. It has no effect on PDE5 and does not induce cGMP. That is all nitric oxide
I can't be alone in thinking this as proponents of the bioenergetic approach like Hans Amato also promote nitric oxide in relation to sexual function

RE: Is Ray Peat Legit? My thoughts:
When did Peat ever say to drink almost your entire days need of calories in carrot juice????!!!you can tell who has actually bothered to read his stuff, and who just incorporated cherrypicked elements of his philosophy in regards to nutrition from somebody they followed on Twitter. RPF was full of unhinged lunatics, but even there they wouldn't suggest this, Da fuck🤯
