I'm curious if you take any substances, I think for example aspirin can inhibit hypertrophy and prevent muscle growth

Do you all have any resources for where I could learn about organic chemistry? I know the fundamentals of chemistry but I want to know if there are any books, PDF's, articles, etc. that can be useful if I ever want to learn how to (for example) synthesize my own medicines. If you have anything that would be useful, I'd appreciate them here.

@Pooooop
The biggest thing when it comes to art is enjoying it! Draw what you enjoy and you'll get good at it naturally.

Update: I've been away for a while but I've decided to get into watercolors a bit, here's my first attempt at a Japanese watercolor painting

I've been away from this forum for a bit so I apologize for leaving you hanging, I have been sketching more though so I'll upload it when I get a chance

@Lovesickhs18
Thanks heh, I'm glad you noticed this thread. Don't be too pressured, a good sketch takes heart and soul

With Jews, you win.

What kinds of things do you usually eat?

I've heard you have to be careful where you source that stuff (don't get it from China) because they use the same vats to make stuff like estradiol and they don't even clean them. I don't really know any good sources though...

Where do you source your vitamin E? I've heard that it's hard to find trustworthy sources that have both alpha and gamma tocopherols in even proportions.

@Peatly said in Why is the Ray Peat community so far right?:

Of course, in ways that were productive.

This is the key here

I'm a starch fan, mostly because I don't have a lot of ripe fruit here and it's unpleasant drinking large amounts of fruit juice as a major carbohydrate. I also notice that I get stomach issues with eating large amounts of fruit that I don't get from eating rice or potatoes, and I think that they are more delicious and filling with savory meals than just sweet fruit alone.

Progest E is probably the single most important substance for me imo, it keeps me calm and also guarantees me a good night's sleep. Just for the sleep alone it has saved me from many bad days

I think that being highly argumentative isn't peaty

Thanks for the thoughts. I think I'll see if there's a gut issue involved since I do think I might have some problems in that regard

I have had tinnitus for as long as I remember. Any time I am in a quiet environment, my ears have this chronic ringing/static noise, and it is difficult for me to sleep without a fan. I thought this was normal for most people until I came across the Peat sphere, and I've heard people say that it is a sign of chronically elevated adrenaline or endotoxin. Is there anyone who has any tips to help narrow down what is causing this?

If you're in the southern United States, feral hogs would probably make a good meat for people worried about the PUFA content of regular pork

Hello all,
I wanted to make a thread where people can post their sketches or other works of art that they have made. I'll start with a little sketch of mine, it's nothing special, just wanna get the ball rolling
