@DavidPS

apparently binders are useless (according to Andy Cutler)

I've talked about my predicament with heavy metal toxicity (specifically antimony). Will sauna be effective for curing this? I was also thinking of buying DMSA (which is a bit expensive). Should I go with that option instead?

I’m getting prescription glasses soon. I added the Blue Light filter option. So I would be wearing these all the time. Is this good?

@sneedful

I don’t really see much here. I’m planning on using something like DMSA to remove the antimony… if only I can convince a physician to prescribe it

@BearWithMe

I collected nail samples and sent them to IdeaLabs

@BearWithMe

Well, maybe it has nothing to do with nutrition. You might wanna get tested for toxic metals… mine is off the charts, so that can explain my issues

@BearWithMe

Oh. I wasn’t recommending metabolic uncouplers (thyroid, caffeine, etc.) because that would obviously be unhealthy given your current state. So you don’t think you have any nutrient deficiencies? (biotin, niacinamide, copper, ascorbic acid, glycine, etc.) Have you tried eating liver?

@BearWithMe

Well, you’re clearly hypothyroid… if I were you I would try some B vitamins, especially thiamine since it’s not very abundant and it gets depleted when oxidizing sugar. Maybe you could get tested for toxic metals, just in case. I suppose you’re already getting enough minerals from food…

Is this a thing? Specifically for those on a Peat diet… I’ve been having issues but I feel a little better after having some raw hot chocolate (supposedly it’s quite rich in nickel, which is why it’s discouraged for some)

I’ll continue with the chocolate to see if it makes a difference…

@mostlylurking

okay, but I don’t know where I can get that without a prescription

I guess DMPS will do the trick? Although I don’t know where to get it…

@sneedful

well, I’ve taken selenium and MSM and it didn’t have any effect

I have posted here about my health concerns, essentially being stuck in a hypometabolic state despite trying all sorts of things... could this explain everything?

I don't think this has anything to do with nutrition, how about pesticides? they seem to be linked to aplastic anemia

how does one get rid of these?

I took an antihelminitic so maybe parasites can be ruled out…
