@IRL said in I can't get my stress under control:

@Shar_to_the_dae @Peatful My thyroid levels (FT3, FT4, T3, T4) are all within the normal range or slightly on the higher end.

When I say 'eating peaty', I mean consuming unprocessed balanced macro, nutrient-dense foods and maintaining a normal to high calorie intake.

My body temperature is normal/good, with only a slight drop after eating, likely due to the lowering of stress hormones.

If someone has their temperature drop after eating
And as you said -lowering stress hormones
It also reveals that you are not meeting your metabolic needs

Either calorically or macro wise (ie unstable blood sugar) or you are not digesting it well possibly

If you want to look more objectively
Such as labs
Look at your reverse T3

If cortisol is high
Means thyroid is “low”

Eating Peaty
Whatever that means
Eating Peaty I see related to eating restrictively and or orthorexia

Are your temps good?
Waking then again after your first meal in a relaxed state

@gg12

Hi

You’re young
You will be ok
Your body is resilient
Just be consistent - without becoming orthorexic

1- go low low PUFA
2- eat balanced macros. 40/30/30 or 50/20/20 c/f/p

You will slowly heal over time
Congratulations on taking charge of your health at such a young age

Best to you…

@ilnyarienàfaire

Usually low blood sugar iirc

Edit:
This was in reference to the Dream comments

@ilnyarienàfaire

The reason I wanted both temps is because I need to compare them

Before your response to me
It was likely that you are in a stressed metabolic state

Having a waking temp of 98.4 combined with your symptoms
Does indicate a stressed driven metabolism

Interesting if you knew your reverse T3
Although not paramount

To beat to the chase
Knowing what little data we have on you
What may be causing or definitely adding to your complaints
You may simply be too lean for whatever your energy needs are
It may have you in that stressed state

Plus
Blood sugar regulation is important too

Again
If your temp is 98.4 waking
That may be a cortisol driven thing

More data needed

OP

What is your waking temperature?
What is your morning temperature in a relaxed state 20-30 minutes after eating breakfast?

@LetTheRedeemed said in New "Mission" of RPF:

@Peatful what was he charged with?

I hope you understand why I wouldn’t say that publicly

There are several from the old forum that had, have and are aware of this data

If they are comfortable
They can DM you privately

@Sitaruim said in New "Mission" of RPF:

@Peatful I want to see that mugshot...

Clarifying:
Didn’t mean to imply that the picture was troubling
I was meaning what he was charged or booked for was…
My opinion of course

@sneedful said in New "Mission" of RPF:

i dont see the point in hand wringing over charlie. the only potentially uncouth thing he really did is basically profit off ray’s name by launching lgs and marketing it to peaters. and even that is reaching and isnt a big deal because his forum got so many people aware on peating and lgs sells good products.

rpf often comes up in google searches for me when researching health topics and i thought this ice cream and coke forum seems interesting, i thought ray peat is the name of some bicycle racer or something who promotes sugar

anyways what are you all so mad about? i still daily search rpf for info and charlie maintains this forum for years . his personal choice to go all in on this apocalyptic abrahamic influenced low vit A dogma is strange but whatever.

i just dont “get” why so many of you care. this is the same vibe of danny roddy’s cringe meltdown over mercola saying progest e plastic bottles are bad. yeah, an insensitive rude comment . but to get all offended over it like you or ray’s been done some great harm. it’s low energy

Please…

Uncouth?
I saw the criminal charges and mug shot of him
Have you?
It was going around I guess in February this year

If not photoshopped etc
It was troubling

Also
This
https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/2041/check-your-bank-statements

I wish him no harm
But to minimize what he was doing to Ray’s wife and legacy
It was gross

6:04

Would like to hear from Katherine on this

Personally
I again think Ray is misunderstood

@the-MOUSE said in how matt stonie competitior eater still good health idnicator?:

No learned helplessness
No orthorexia
Getting robust kcal

He started when he was 19
During very important developmental period for young males

These are all really good things

Food restriction
As very common in the body building world I note
Food restriction is very detrimental

Stay away from ciprofloxin.
Can’t stress this enough.

Generalization:
If your temps aren’t consistently good
You aren’t supporting yourself metabolically

So
It may look ok
But
Objectively
You need your temps for the fuller story
And or any symptoms as well

It’s not a loss

I learned so much doing dumb shtt and making mistakes

“The true method of knowledge is experiment”

@Danny yes. I would do salt and gelatin.

Reread it

If you’re thyroid is low
Or temps are low
You definitely need to work on metabolic health if applicable

@Rayoshi-Pufamoto perfect

https://raypeat.com/articles/articles/water.shtml

If you average temp is “still slightly low”
Are you healed?

Id guess - with what limited data you have shared…
That you are in the process of healing
But with temps still unstable
Not “healed” yet

If true:
Heal before restricting again
Or metabolically
You are not doing yourself any favors

@Rayoshi-Pufamoto

Im glad she is ok.
Truly

If this were my baby
I would possibly consider gelatin, bone broth and or collagen

Do your due diligence
And let food be thy medicine
