Anterior pelvic tilt can be caused by tight hip flexors. Gain flexibility in your hip flexors and strengthen your abs and posterior chain.

Fantastic post! I totally agree with this.
I like to chew my food until it’s basically a purée—usually about 30 chews before swallowing.
Nowadays, most foods are soft, especially processed foods, so I really enjoy foods that give my jaw a workout, like steaks, and chew those tougher bits until very fine, some collagen-y parts take me minutes to chew, up to 30 minutes, so I save these pieces and treat it as gum after my meal, it feels like a jaw workout.

And speaking of jaws, a lot of people have underdeveloped jawlines because they don’t eat hard foods and chew enough, and on top of that they don’t practice mewing. So chewing thoroughly is also a good practice for looksmaxximg.

What foods do you find hardest to chew?

Switzerland, if you can afford it.

@LucH It dilutes perfectly and has no taste. I add it in my coffee and in my food sometimes, and I don’t notice any difference in flavor.

It sounds like you have gut issues, maybe you should focus on addressing this first and foremost. Have you tried adding collagen in your diet? My digestion improved a lot after introducing gelatin, collagen peptides and bone broth (check a recipe called master’s broth in this forum)

I’ve seen it getting trendy on Twitter recently, as a remedy for hypertension, vaccine symptoms, improving liver function, and other things.

Have you experimented any changes in your body after trying this supplement?

For those who aren’t familiar, nattokinase is an enzyme extracted from natto, a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans. Interestingly, natto is the richest source of vitamin K2 per gram. Does this make soy peaty now?

@VehmicJuryman That makes no sense to me, not exercising means you’re spending all of your time in constant rest.

Has Ray Peat ever spoken about this? Does the size of chicken eggs affect their nutritional value?

I find XL eggs abnormally large. I don’t think it’s natural for chickens to lay eggs that big, so I tend to choose smaller sizes. It’s definitely more painful for the chickens to lay eggs that big, that probably stresses them more, potentially affecting the egg’s nutrition.

What do you think? Do you prefer smaller chicken eggs when shopping, or does the size not matter to you?

What’s going on? I never get cravings like these. It’s very common to see comments online about how good it feels to drink a glass of water after waking up from disrupted sleep.

I have to force myself to drink my first glass of water in the morning because my body doesn’t crave it that much. And I don’t drink a lot of water overall.

Maybe people are just extremely dehydrated?

Dr. Andrew Huberman discusses this in his podcast. He suggests that caffeine should be avoided 8 to 12 hours before bedtime. According to him, drinking a cup of coffee at 2 PM is equivalent to consuming 10% of a cup right before bed. He claims that even if you feel good when you sleep, you still may not reach the REM phases as effectively.

@ThinPicking Good recommendation. Local multiplayer games have sadly been rejected and abandoned by game studios. Some of the best gaming experiences I’ve had were with good friends in the same room. Online doesn’t even feel remotely the same.

Rest in peace.

Potatoes. They’re delicious, cheap, and high in potassium.

Alternatively, you can visit any wholesale store, where you can likely find gelatin at a good price. This is where restaurants typically purchase in bulk.

My father has been suffering from calcific tendonitis in his right shoulder for over a year. He has limited range of motion that causes pain with some exercises that involve the shoulder.
Doctors occasionally treat him with shockwave therapy to break the calcium deposits. However, it doesn’t seem to help much. I suspect that the issue is related to metabolic factors.

He is mostly vegetarian: he eats lots of vegetables, legumes, and some dairy and eggs. He doesn’t eat as much fruit anymore because he’s learned that “sugar is bad” from watching YouTube videos. He has other beliefs like “salt is bad and will give you hypertension” so he barely adds any salt into his food.

I’ve been pushing him into a more peaty diet, having more salt, organ meats and gelatin.

I’m sorry for rambling, I’m looking for advice from people who perhaps have dealt with something similar, or know of a good protocol to tackle the calcification.

I’ve thought of a protocol consisting of vitamin D / sunlight, vitamin K2, and magnesium, and perhaps more calcium.

Thanks in advanced for the help.

I believe that fetishes are not random and are deeply tied with your subconscious or trauma. So it does make sense that making a significant change in your way of living and thinking could change your sexual desires.

There are accounts of people having cured their homosexuality after experiencing an increase in their testosterone levels.

How do you think these girls would look like without makeup, filters and photoshop?

Is it worth it to invest in an ice cream maker?
