Wow seems like an unethical use of blocking when there was no abuse or meanness — totally stopping moving forward scientific inquiry and development... I had thoughtful criticism of glucose loading and now she’s even given up on it.

@ThinPicking

@ThinPicking hahahahaha

I mean I thought I was fair with S-Holmes, I shared some serious disagreements on a few occasions but thought it was non-malicious… oh well happy new years!

dam, if I can't see s-Holmes' comments does that mean I'm blocked or something?

@Mr-X dang I forgot *:D

I definitely have clearer/worsened skin depending on when I have good metabolism vs stress.

@happyhanneke idk if this reply was for me, but when I was a kid our goats were fine. My dad's nanny goat did fine, except that constant mating attempts by the billy goat caused an udder injury that led to mastitis. Check out rotational grazer's experience with sheep -- it's led to drastic reductions in infections and parasites. But yes, due to them eating strait to the root, they are more likely to get parasites and bacteria -- rotational grazing mitigates this by keeping them in clean pasture away from their poop

@Ray-Peat-Fanboy on the flip side I’ve gotten close to buying a milk goat. 200 usd for a non thoroughbred.

@ThinPicking said in What do you guys think of Trump now that he won:

Could easily be an annoyance or disappointment for you LTR. But there'd be a laugh in there somewhere.

dam we'd get along then

@Socialmilking nice

@Hando-Jin I wish I could meet @ThinPicking

@Samyo no don't stop meat. Just go back to basics and contextualize your symptoms in relation to Peaty Principles. If you need help go to Danny Roddy.

Reach out to him here and set up an appointment:

@Samyo I think that eating as per his recommendations is not the answer to automatically fixing problems. I think that’s why he rejected “building a diet,” as it’s reductionist. Everything you’re describing is pointing to gut bacterial issues, and possibly liver issues. And ferritin that high isn’t Peaty…

I’ve found in my own efforts for the first 2 years, that I would cobble together foods that Peat approves, but my issues didn’t get resolved — and what mattered more in my instance, was the ratio of foods (high carbs/lower my protein), but it could be anything else depending on your context — I may as well have been eating pea powder for my protein source instead of the highest quality beef, and would’ve done better if I got more fundamentals right, and actually addressed my gut with antibiotics, my iron toxicity with blood donation and about a year of aspirin use (with vit K) and my thyroid with getting my cholesterol up and then adding cynoplus/cynomel. I’m doing better now than at any point in my past and I’m eating a fast food burger once a week lol.

@Samyo

Ferritin levels now at 388, it dropped from 488 I ate more meat prior to the first test, and less on the 2nd test..

I am definitely not the blood test whisperer, but I believe ferritin under 40 is great, so you may want to lower it. Maybe that could negatively impact your liver, causing some symptoms? Iron causes oxidative stress. Eggs and milk are food sources that lower iron, copper helps iron metabolism, so that’s good to consume with sources like liver/oyster. Aspirin is good at lowering iron — always take with vit K.

Any of these known to cause constipation? skin rashes/inflammation/smelly sulpur armpits?

I don’t know about that particularly, but I know that your symptoms generally point to stress hormones. Without more competent blood reading by someone like Danny Roddy or Jay Feldman, I’d focus less on fixing those symptoms with nutrients or supplements, and more on fixing the metabolism that promotes those symptoms (yes they can point to causal factors).

I’d focus more on fixing the gut, liver, and thyroid — that seemed to be Ray’s principle concern. He believed that nutrient wackamole was a lesser solution, and often misguided. Yes, A, D, K, mag, cal, copper, etc deficiencies can cause metabolic annd other issues, but that’s fixed easily with food.

Its not acne, I think more Seborrheic dermatitis

You could try something topical for that in the meantime to manage symptoms or hopefully kill a potential infection, but it often comes down to compromised metabolism in the skin that makes one susceptible to infections like that.

@BroJonas for what it’s worth I’ve never seen any figures while under sleep paralysis, either.

@revenant where are both of y'all’s nations if you don’t mind me asking?

@DanielPenny88 bro I thought I was the only one calling it aristocratic hahaha

@Samyo if you’re suffering from a nutrient deficiency that could be contributing to the acne. You’re eating something that’s good for your metabolic rate, but with a nutrient deficiency like lack of vitamin a, you can develop acne. Ray talked about research showing that a faster metabolism burns thru nutrients faster and that causes some issues with skin. Weekly liver and a few oysters should hit those nutrient requirements.

@Mossy

@Mossy yeah, the oatbran recipe calls for around a half cup or so, and he’s saying that the nutrients, like calcium, in a half cup doesn’t cover it.
