@Ecstatic_Hamster Do you have a quote by chance? I know Broda Barnes stated that the main thing to concentrate on was symptoms not temperature stated near the end of his book Hypothyroidism. But Peat wrote a whole newsletter on the importance of temperature.

What podcast?
Whom?

There is a first person account on what happened to Ray in his final months.
Doddie iirc
Danny interviewed her
Please listen
It’s wonderful in regards to the man and his life

Not sure how the cabal could get to him in his own home without Catherine being affected or aware

Though this study used supplementing it still jibes with what we've heard previously, that unsaturated fats don't provide the same satiety as most of the saturated ones. If your food isn't making you "feel full" then you might simply eat more of it.

On another related note, who else here has read that a spoonful of beef tallow 10 or 20 minutes before a meal would result in quicker satiety and eating less?

Interesting study btw, will pass it on, thank you for linking.

@Mauritio Appreciate it. That was the conclusion I had arrived to as well but I have heard some people do t3 only. If you don't mind sharing what dose t3/t4 did you find works for you?

@herayclitus Theres one about trailer park sounding guy who says vitamin E made him and girlfriend really horny and stuttered like a sperg.

@The-New-Sun I like the term goblin food, I will be using that from now on. It would be great if someone could archive Peatler's original zoot juice recipe for posterity

Thought I should post a brief update since this thread has gotten some more attention lately: The symptoms I was dealing with have greatly improved with some diet and lifestyle changes. I've reduced my zinc supplementation to a more standard 15mg a day, but I still feel 120mg/day was beneficial as a short-term loading dose. I do get plenty of copper and manganese in my diet from regular shellfish consumption, and I've started using molasses as well. If anyone is interested, the current stack I'm running is a standard B-complex, 300mg thiamine HCL, 8000IU vitamin D, Thorne's vitamin K formula, 15mg zinc citrate, and T3/T4, progesterone, pregnenolone, and DHEA rarely as needed

@herayclitus check out Brad Marshall’s YouTube channel (fireinabottle). He shows how not even only tryptophan/methionine/cysteine slow metabolism as Ray said, but that BCAAs actually increase fat oxidation! Which can be a disaster in excess!!

@herayclitus As far as I know, no.

I think he rarely said he spoke either, but he was pretty humble about it generally so we can only deduce from context. He said he felt way more fluent in Spanish when at high altitude. It's reasonable to assume his Spanish was quite good. Especially considering the opportunities available to him to speak it, the fact that the culture is very open to learners, and the general fact that it's not that hard to learn.

With regards to Russian, I don't think he outright ever said he spoke it, and said when he spoke to a Soviet researcher they were sort of mixing languages - indicating he was definitely not fluent. It's reasonable to assume he could understand a decent part of it written down.

@herayclitus my current workout routine lower/upper/rest/lower/upper/rest/rest.
First lower session is focused on bb squats, then a deadlift accessory and then some isolation work.
First upper session is focused on BB bench press, then a overhead press accessory followed by isolation work.
Second lower session is focused on deadlifts, then a squat accessory followed by isolation work.
Second upper session is focused on OHP, then a bench accessory followed by isolation work.
Nothing fancy, but it has been working quite well.
I'm going to peak in the next 4 weeks to set new PR's.
