@wtpyrucet The raw carrot salad is about the microbial cleansing only, you are not meant to derive nutrition from it. Spinach does not grow underground and thus also doesn't have any antifungal or antibacterial properties.

I don't think it's a fitness thing, just a steroid thing. Muscles built through steroid use have a certain very obvious unnatural look to them that does look like they are aged.

@Lovesickhs18 Honestly just throw the egg whites into the drain. Egg yolks are very tasty. Egg whites is what makes the eggs bland and tasteless. For protein drink milk instead.

@LucH I've known about the effects of Serotonin in regards to depression, but low executive function is different because it generally doesn't mean you are low energy, it just means that you allocate all that energy towards tasks that do not really help with your current situation. Do you think there is a connection? I've generally been fine in regards to energy since supplementing B vitamins, but the low executive function remains.

Hello again,

I would define executive function as this: The ability to work on a task that's not very interesting but still needs to be done.

Some people have higher executive function then and others have lower. The ADHD diagnosis then is not really about a real medical condition but more about controlling the access to amphetamines and other potentially abusable ADHD medication. ADHD diagnosis naturally increases as the need for high executive function within society also increases.

So what I am wondering now, is there an non-prescription alternative to medication? Has anybody tried increasing executive function through nutrition or supplementation? I thought if anybody has a clue about this it would be here.

Taking a Swanson Balance B-50 supplement, 1x every second day, +250mg Thiamin HCL:

300mg of Thiamin HCL
50mg of Riboflavin, Niacinamide, Pyridoxine HCl, Cholin, Inositol and PABA.
50mcg of Cyanocobalamin and Biotin.
400mcg folic acid.

Is there anything I should add? I heard supplementing Thiamin causes Magnesium depletion, is there any other cofactors I should be aware of?

Diet is Oranges, Potatoes, Pasta, Pastries, Milk and Coffee.

@hypercashoidism
low fat, high carb (preferably from sugars, not starches) = high metabolism = weight loss

I think it is a bit contextual, if you are already overweight then you absolutely need a high carb diet to offset the large amounts of free fatty acids in your blood. If you are already lean then moderate fat might be beneficial.

If you are fat you probably think that there is no point in grooming yourself because you are going to be unattractive either way.

not really, hair is just genetic, you should simply find a straight hairstyle that fits you well

Salmon and Pork seem to be the only really mainstream foods that contain enough Vitamin B1 to really fulfill the daily recommended amount. But most people don't eat 200g of pork chops every day. How come they don't all end up deficient? Are there other major sources I am missing? This puzzles me.
