@yerrag I started this thread to get feedback from others who have tried his methods. Not too interested in trying to sell people on them. I just really don't have time. I've spent all day (week actually) working to get petitions signed and people to commit to not signing leases turning my county into a wind turbine nightmare. I'll be working on this until we lose or they're run out of town. But that's another story

@yerrag People make a lot of assumptions about Nathan's advice. I can't explain everything in bits and pieces that took him 500 pages of writing to explain.

@yerrag Many of Nathan's strategies are for the metabolically challenged. That would be many, if not most people. Some will not need to follow his advice, but I'm guessing most who are on health forums are looking for solutions to their health issues.

RE: BIOHACKING by Nathan Hatch, "F*** Portion Control"
@yerrag I do nothing simply because a guru said to do it. I try things and if they work I continue. If they don't work, I move on. Our recovering metabolism proves this works for us. I can't speak for anyone else. Nothing else was helping and I suspect many others find themselves with swinging or low temperatures. My primary goal was to raise my temp/metabolism by any means possible. So far so good.

Another thing to consider is that when you increase your metabolic rate you will use up nutrients faster. I developed a very sore area on my gums after my temperature dramatically improved. I then did vit C loading , to bowel tolerance (24 grams in a day was my limit). The sore spot is gone.

@zawisza I don't know the answer to that question. I'm testing it out now, but am only about 2 months in so far.
I have always been thin. Then, pufas, stress, and illness caught up with me and I started to gradually gain weight. (I'm still thinner than most women over 50, but I would feel better carrying around less.) If stress hormones are the primary cause of weight gain, then it makes sense to do everything possible to reduce them. When you haven't eaten in a while, your body compensates by releasing those hormones. That's why Nathan says eating something (organic and no pufas) every 2 to 3 hours is imperative. He also says if you wait until you're hungry, it's too late. The stress of hunger has already triggered their release.
The experiment continues.

RE: BIOHACKING by Nathan Hatch, "F*** Portion Control"
@yerrag Well said my friend. We see eye to eye. As for CICO, I'm testing that theory. So far, (7 weeks in) no extra weight, feels like loss (I never weigh) but some probable redistribution. My husband says he is losing. Tbh, I'm working on metabolism first. Once that's fully restored I think the extra bit of weight may take care of itself.

@BabyDuck I forgot one important thing. Silicic acid. I dissolve bamboo silica in lemon juice. Then add sugar, acacia fiber, modified citrus pectin, and water. The fiber and pectin aren't necessarily important but I like taking them for gut health.

@Peatful Mostly his legs. But as I said, the pains came and went. He hasn't had any in several days. We live on a steep wooded hill and over the weekend he was burning a large brush pile at the bottom, which required many trips up and down the hill, all day long. Yesterday he had a little swelling in his knee that had never healed properly from an injury and surgery in high school. It's already back to normal. His temps are better than mine, and he is sleeping well (after decades of getting only 4 hours a night). We take extra aspirin, if needed, on days when a healing crisis is too distracting.
After I received an ethically sourced stem cell IV last year, I had a healing crisis (severe vertigo and leg weakness). I could barely walk. It lasted several weeks. Fortunately I knew that I was healing and it would pass. It did.
We are both in our 60's and not on any prescription meds. We never go to the doctor, although I've had self managed (homeopathy) Epstein-Barr since my 20's. We do take otc substances and supplements recommended by Dr. Peat, Georgi and Nathan.
