@DonkeyDude My apologies Sir.

You're right, it was the toxic Ray Peat diet that caused stomach ulcers all along... The toxic bile gets so full with toxic "vitamin" A that it literally oozes out of the stomach and burns holes in it. And when you stop intaking the toxins they will instead ooze out of every pore in your skin; it's a glorious sight to behold. This new paradigm gets rid of all the nuances, it is a simple way to health, you only have to eat beef, beans and bread and buy the "Big Five" minerals from Life Giving store. After every new detox wave you feel like a new person. I am 4 years deep and detoxing copper right now from the crazy space weather! Happy easter (without the toxic eggs!)

@Hando-Jin To be fair that is probably the only time I have ever agreed with Charlie banning someone - that guy seemed like such an asshole.

Lmao the activity level on RPF has dropped off a cliff.

The only "posters" left are Charlie and his army of burner accounts.

I mean look at this post by Sebastian B - it is so stupidly obvious this is just a means to fill up the empty space with useless "low toxin diet" posts:

So... you're telling me that you are unable to eat apples because of the "the high-toxin Ray Peat cancer diet." and have to eat apple powder?

Riveting content!

@Highserotonin What does your diet look like?

Some individuals are more sensitive to the solanaceous glycoalkaloids in nightshades (e.g. due to BChE deficiencies). Of course there is also the problem of non-organic food and pesticides which act as cholinesterase inhibitors.

@Cristiano To answer your question, no I don't think DHEA will help much at all.

There is some evidence that topical testosterone (and presumably also DHT) applied to the beard stimulates vellus to terminal hair conversion.

Haidut posted a study where an old grandma used topical T on her face for months and grew a "beard". There's also this study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17852629/. Maybe topical testosterone or DHT combined with dermarolling, applied consistently over years, could be a good way to get a thicker beard.

@Santosh Have you tried applying T or DHT locally to the beard area?

I have been doing this some time and have seen more terminal hairs, but it is somewhat slow progress. I saw the most beard growth from permanently cutting out gluten from my diet (no cheating ever). However I think I am celiac or have NGCS so I doubt everyone will get the same effects from removing gluten.

Minoxidil is also effective but gives me terrible side effects,

I don't want to sound too judgemental... but anyways here goes, I have to get this rant out of me:

The idiots on RPF that say that they got harmed by the "Ray Peat diet" are some of the dumbest persons I have ever come across. Let me explain.

For example, mosaic01 thinks that on the "Ray Peat diet" carrots are the ONLY allowed source of fiber. How myopic can you be to read Ray Peats work, and then come to the conclusion that you are only allowed to get fiber from carrots? What about fiber from cooked vegetables, whole fruits, residual fibers from starches like potatoes, wheat bran, oat bran; all of which are foods that Peat endorsed at some point?

Like hello?!?! What is even going on inside your heads? Sometimes I doubt whether these are real persons, I can't even fathom it. YOU CAN EAT OTHER FOODS THAN CARROTS AND OJ.

But that is probably not the worst part, I would be actually be okay if someone legitimately thought that Ray is the "carrot only for fiber" man. The worst part is blaming all your failures, that YOU CAUSED by eating foods that did not agree with you (or some other lifestyle issue that you did not address), on Ray Peat. It makes me furious to see Ray's life work being dragged through the mud like this by low IQ posters.

What is so difficult for these people to understand that Ray did not prescribe specific diets? I just don't get it.

Thanks for banning me I can't stand spending any more time on RPF.

@S-Holmes Thank you!!

That is very fitting that you should say that... since you do find a lot of beneficial compounds in cream, including vitamin A as well as other exotic things e.g., milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7456308/

I just bought a bag of bovine colostrum powder and I am really liking the effects so far: strong anti-fatigue, anti-serotonin effects.

I came across this study (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5508057) which shows that bovine colostrum can help mitigate the exercise-induced increase in central serotonin signalling in rats (through suppressing TPH). The rats that were fed colostrum could thus run faster on a treadmill... doesn't that sound wonderful?!

There are also studies done where colostrum supplementation decreased intestinal permeability induced by exercise: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5409709/

I am thinking that colostrum (and/or lactoferrin) can be a great tool for individuals that struggle with leaky gut, CFS/post-exertional malaise or similar health issues.

Hello, it's nice to see everyone here

I made a post that there is no "Ray Peat diet" and that you should take responsibility for your own mistakes instead of blaming Ray. Immediately got banned from RPF by snowflake Charlie, lol

Thanks @brad for creating this awesome forum and a safe haven for RPF refugees
