The synthetic stuff is with downsides. Just eat whole foods. Medium rare (at least) beef organs. Heat reduces B12 content significantly, this is very often neglected.

@Corngold

If you’re talking about garlic possibly yes it might help with absorption of B1.

@16charactersitis

Exactly! The good old days lmao... retvrn!

@Serotoninskeptic, yep! I use the PS’ gelatin in my dad’s meals and the collagen in his coffee.

Yes so I’ve heard with A2. Unfortunately that isn’t widely available in my country but thanks for the tips. I have a source for a non-homogenised milk I may start getting but I’m starting to think milk of any kind is a net benefit when drank at the correct time and not totally haphazardly.

Grant’s conclusion is weird.

Goes from rice -> fortified sourdough + honey. Calories increased from the paltry ~1600 he ate previously. States he hasn’t exercised much either.

8 months later gets dry itchy scalp.

Switches to German non-fortified buns + honey, recovers fully in 5 months.

Conclusion is… blame niacin? What about everything else in fortified flour? Why not switch back the working diet and supplement nicotinic acid to isolate affect? Also, isn’t niacin in fortified foods really niacinamide? What?

When eating more than 2.5 g leucine, it must be balance with glycine.
One egg brings a lot of leucine and methionine. Two excitatory amino acids.
0.5 to 0.6 gr leucine per egg.
Ray Peat has said many times that even much smaller doses of PUFA are carcinogenic. This study agrees and says that human equivalent doses of as low as 5g - 7g also increased inflammatory biomarkers and are considered carcinogenic.
About PUFA in excess (more than 5-7 gr):
Dietary glycine significantly blunted the rapid activation of NF-κB caused by corn oil, by 75–80%.

In terms of exercise I am now focussing on more playful forms. That being sports. Most sports involve some form of explosive activity rather than endurance.

I’m playing soccer/football and do Muay Thai, although they are quite exhaustive sometimes my appetite has skyrocketed and I feel a lot better not carrying around so much extra musculature in the upper body.

Sports are also good because they integrate you in your local environment. Instead of the deranged sort of Sigma gym goer loner archetype that gets so heavily promoted, performing in a local arena builds bonds and creates a greater sense of purpose.

Brute de force speaks on this, we must have an outlet to perform that earns you accolades. I would consider sport an important and easy outlet that most people have access to. You can exert yourself physically and stylistically as a form of expression.
