RE: Its been 3 weeks now since I started to eat ultra low PUFA
@Ray-Peat-Fanboy Just FYI I consumed most of my calories from cane sugar cola for a while and didn't feel good from it. I found out that natural sources of sugar like fruit juice contain thiamine which is necessary to process carbohydrates.

@Truth You are at the limit of your IQ here. Don't worry about it, try some picture books instead.

@Truth It seems my post requires a level of reading comprehension and critical thinking that you simply don't possess.

RE: A Small Announcement
@Truth That post does not talk about sexual slavery as a positive thing in any way. The entire post is obviously a criticism of Muhammad, and a sarcastic way of arguing that minimizing stress through violence against others is not Peaty. Make sure to apologize to me for your calumny.

RE: Muhammad Pbuh, The original peater?
This is just the natural diet of a pastoral culture like the Arabs, plus fruit due to living in the tropics. Not sure what makes Muhammad unique in this regard. Although I'm sure having a harem of slave women and captives, plus living off the profits of predation and banditry against his neighbors helped reduce stress. Still his inability to father sons and his personality disorders including psychosis and anger issues may indicate some metabolic issues.

Getting majority of calories from Mexican coke is not optimal?
Greetings, for the past few months I've been living primarily off of Mexican coke. I'd say it's about 40-50% of my calories per day. I also eat McDonald's cheeseburgers and sweet tea, cheese slices, grass fed milk and orange juice. It occurred to me that I'm not improving my chronic fatigue or other issues. I did some research yesterday, and apparently you need a vitamin known as thiamine to process sugar. Lack of thiamine is also the first thing people mention when talking about fatigue, my main symptom. Mexican coke doesn't have this vitamin in it at all. So the past few months I've been consuming massive quantities of added table sugar in cokes for naught as my cells can't even use it without accompanying thiamine. Apparently both milk and orange juice have adequate amounts of thiamine to process the sugar within them, so hopefully I'll see improvements if I completely replace the cokes with milk/orange juice.

RE: Raypeatforum.com is down
The forum is inaccessible and the archive isn't working for me. Even if I copy and paste the exact title of the thread I want to read into the archive search I can't find it. Very cool how Charlie wiped out tens of thousands of posts of priceless information from the internet to defend a copyright he quite literally has zero legal or moral right to hold. Genuinely unfathomable how he thinks he has a right to profit from the Ray Peat name because he registered a website domain.

RE: Peating in poverty
@Njegos said in Peating in poverty:
@Norwegian-Mugabe Of course food is very important but I eat like shit most of the time because I live with my parents and they get really mad if don’t eat stuff they make. Yes I’m 19 arguing with my parents about food but whatever
What do they make? Tell them you can't eat food fried in vegetable oil.

RE: Vit D to Vit K ratio when supplementing aspirin? your experiences/suggestions?
@pseudomonkey Yes I was taking x4 325mg pills without any special techniques or supplements. It cured a growth (tumor?) in my armpit though
