how are your personal relationships? do you have a path/passions? good nutrition cant save you from a meaningless life

@solsasha14 Nausea, low appetite, and loose poops all potentially sound like serotonin symptoms. i get a complete reversal of all 3 of those from cypro. such a small dose doesn't make me sleepy, but everyone is different

@solsasha14 .5mg cypro before gym completely eliminates my post-gym fatigue. ray said this was caused by serotonin

@Sugarnotsnow if everything is good i can get like 3 no-wipers a day, which is why it sucks because I'm so close to digestion perfection

@RawGoatMilk88 mike miser and his stupid ideas need to go away!!! bro was blasting roids and died before he turned 50!!

@Pooooop if your goal is hypertrophy, more is more. Every study on the topic has shown continual growth (however diminishing) \ even up to 50 hard sets a week depending on certain muscle groups.

dont think he's ever spoken or written about disordered eating. you could potentially extend the bioenergetic view of addiction to anorexia tho. generally, mental disorders are described as some sort of disturbance of the endocrine system originating from potentially epigenetic malnutrition. probably more useful to view anorexia in a societal context

ive found that taking some t3 while cutting is a good way to keep metabolism from dropping and to not feel like shit

a message to all my fellow toilet warriors having bloody bathroom battles on the daily, yet again glycine is to the rescue.

been dealing with on-and-off ruby red evacuations (part of me saw this as potentially good, less iron accumulation! but lower hematocrits are def no good...) but in recent weeks they had gotten much more grusome. heroic does of gelation to the rescue. 60 grams of gelation, abt 17g of glycine, dissolved in some beautiful orange juice, and the next day... lo and behold no bleeding to be found!

will update on further tinkering

never forget the profound anti-inflammatory effects of the glycine god

@mavuue nothing particularly outside of my normal supps, next time i cut I'm going to add niacin to reduce blood triglycerides and oxidative stress during fat loss tho

goes crazy for retaining muscle and energy on a cut, you have to be willing to endure the hunger tho, cuz it gets real.
went from 195 to 185 morning weight in like 12 days on vacation because eating out was either poison or too expensive, with what seems like very minimal to no muscle loss

progress isn't always linear so hang in there! ideally, you'd be taking supplements only upon the manifestation of certain symptoms, and eating a nutritionally dense diet, but trust your own senses and drop supplements strategically. how much energy have you focused on your digestion?

@onliest you know what you must do. for science.

when would be the most optimal time to take the carrot salad? I've read rp say to have it with breakfast but I'm not sure the weight of that recommendation, when do yall take it?

I'm inclined to think the last meal you should eat in the day is the carrot salad, during the overnight fast it would clear out endotoxin without anything else I'm eating getting in the way

@Pooooop my personal experience, drinking lactaid milk with regular milk, like a quart of each a day slowly introducing more regular milk and less lactaid milk, along with a carrot salad for breakfast, helped me, though it was pretty rough at first, same symptoms as you. there's probably a better way than white-knuckling thru. if you ever got a DNA ancestry test, you can download your genome from the company and upload it to genetic genie and they can tell you if you have a lactase persistence gene. I had the gene, but still experienced ance breakouts, diarrhea, etc for most my life until recently. Im sure kefir would help introduce positive bacteria aswell

@Uroš niacin can help to lower oxidative stress during fat loss

@Pooooop possible lactose intolerance or fucked up gut flora. I've heard people talk about drinking raw milk to replenish bacteria that helps digest lactose

@Pooooop muscles primarily metabolize fat at rest, and glycogen during activity, which is why ppl with more muscle mass generally feel better with slightly higher fat intake, i doubt it would effect ur ability to grow muscle. i would also recommend, if you're going to be needing protein constantly to build muscle, to switch to ruminant meats like beef. the cows rumen will saturate the pufa it eats and will protect you from pufa intake, even if its shitty grain fed.

@Pooooop yeah youve def got alot of rice, maybe up the milk and juice intake? dried fruit like raisins and dates are a good source of carbs if money is a factor. you can also add white sugar to your rice. I've been making a white button mushroom risotto recently and its really good. are you trying to lose fat? you have a pretty low fat diet right now which is prob beneficial if you're trying to lose weight but you might benefit from adding a little saturated fat to your rice, i feel pretty bad eating low fat but I've got a good amount of muscle mass, its different for everyone
