Not to mention that being actually in ketosis is damn hard. I feel also that keto is not a good diet. I like my low carb/fasting regimen. I wouldn’t do it without actual medical advice in his case, but fasting, complet fasting, decrease the strain on your heart. After 24 hours of fasting my...

Acm is at the lowest at 220ish of TC. It’s a lot worse at 140 than at 300. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-018-38461-y/figures/2 On this article you can see that older you get the higher the optimal is. I remember an article that basicly shows that people that reach 100 have high...

Baking soda is bad for GERD, gargling baking soda, even washing your nose with it helps with LPR, as it deactivate stomach enzyme that are eating up your throat,.but again reducing stomach acid should be only if everything else failed. Try gaviscon, it’s got pretty much the same success rate...

Try to fix your heartburn problem in another way, ppi is by design fucking up your digestive system. Stomach is meant to be acid, if not acid enough digestion will no happen properly resulting in suboptimal nutrient absorption. Who the fuck is still prescribing that shit long term?

Do you still need the meds?

Proper mouth microbiome is probably underestimated. They try to sell you cleaning the tooth as a fix, but you're really just throwing the dust under the carpet and not fixing the issue, which usually is proper mouth bacteria need a somewhat basic mouth, which is going to be fucked up by sugar...

I've already pointed out that I'm not a huge fan of Ozempic and the likes, but if you're diabetic with a bmi >30 and haven't been losing multiple pounds a month, you should start use it, like yesterday.

Low carb diet, a lot of low intensity exercise, like walking. Outdoor, sun exposure. Methylene Blue shows impressive results in rodent to prevent dementia. Could be a temporarily patch to the mitochondria issues while trying to fix them through diet and exercice. What sucks is that you...

Getting off the meds can be achieved, it's been documented plenty. What is nice is that there is hope of even more than that.

On the bright side, it now seems to be commonly accepted that it can be reversed, just asked Grok, and he flat out said it could be reversed. I think many believe it can possibly be cured, but as it took a long time to happen, even with perfect lifestyle, it's going to be a long journey to...

I'm skeptical that any amount of not sitting can offset the 300 g of industrial carbs that the average American is ingesting daily. Especialy as they can't go 30 minutes without their shot of corn syrup in a way or another. This just kill their metabolism. At a dose like this, industrial carbs...

I'm convinced they’re both a cause of the same problem and therefore cleaning won’t help your heart. Specifically, too much sugar which cause acidity in your mouth which cause tartar on the teeth and also cause inflamation of the vascular system. Reestablishing proper pH with gargling baking...

You're doing surgery for a condition which is currently improving ?

I remember my tooth feeling odd for a while after getting a crown. It was 2 decades ago, but and still remember so it must have been annoying.

I use this : https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Greendoor-Deodorant-Aluminium-Preservatives-Manufacturer/dp/B00XZ7SQXS&ved=2ahUKEwipgcmxmYqOAxUrdvUHHdoGPf8QFnoECCYQAQ&usg=AOvVaw3yx1ah9R8bBBXiHp_xOQVF Not sure if you can find it in the...

Artificial sweeteners are likely to damage gut bacteria, which could translate into increased risk of everything (auto immune disorders, alzeihmer's, cancer...) but the increase in risk is difficult to measure in actual studies, unlike actual sugar. Therefore the increase in risk is at least 10x...

Well that's not how math work, but ok.

Soda is a really, really bad one. Highly addictive, you can consume massive amount without immediat consequence, will fuck up every organ long term.

Bowel cancer rates start to be high in the late 50's And each serving per day of soda increase you risk by 18% https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35470384/#:~:text=SSB%20consumption%20was%20associated%20with,1.72%3B%20Ptrend%20%3D%200.002). Long term sugar abuse doesn't have good outcomes, and...

Come on, a good old 777 while unconfortable is quite safe.

Isn't the 737 next gen actually the last proper boeing plane ?

In another thread I mentionned that I didn't care about flying 787, I just avoided completely 737 max, and I was told by FoH concensus that "you shouldn't". So I booked A350 for this summer. Never doubt FoH concensus, you'll die. That being said I wouldn't have booked Air India, even in A350 or...

As we get older, our body can tolerate less... You're slightly obese, but still obese, meaning you probably have constantly fairly high blood sugar, which causes inflamation, and all sort of problems. Diabetes is a major risk increase for Afib, so it is possibly an issue. You probably don't have...

When he mentions sleep apnea, is it related to obesity ? That could explain a lot, and mean there's an easy fix.

Polyps? You're talking colon cancer? Colon cancer is another beast. If you're at risk, screening is indeed a good idea. I don't think very many people do not die of their colon cancer if left untreated.

It looks like 95% of the prostate cancer are benign, so it seems the correct, and current way to deal with it, is to not look for it unless there are symptoms. You don't want to reduce your life expectancy by taking serious cancer treatment for something that won't bother you and much less kill...

Half of 90 years old have prostate cancer. Very few die of it. Only 2% of men die of it. Would seem to be one of the least dangerous and to progress very slowly in the vast majority of case. To the point that screening isn't recommanded in most cases.

You'll need to do a little bit of work What would you like to improve? For example : fuck it's summer, my allergies are back. Get on quercetine, nac, iodine and some b vitamine. Then fuck it's autumn i'm going to get sick again, you start on vitamine C, D, zinc, copper and maybe some green tea...

It's probably better to rotate your vitamin rather than taking the same all the time. I know chinese doctors like to give a different prescription for each season. Intuitively it seems a good idea.

The older you get, the more you'll appreciate the help in recovery. Supplement in collagen in your 20's might not be optimal, but in your 40's that's another story. It can really do wonders on muscle and joint pain.

Yeah in mankind's history people definitely used to eat the exact same amount of calories every day. That's how our body is supposed to work! Considering the various beneficial mechanisms triggered by fasting, it's a bit silly to not do it on occasion, and therefore you need also to run a...

I always drift back to old, and bad, habits. That's the natural thing to do... brain sees available food, brain wants it. That's where fasting is magical. A few days of fasting resets everything. And I believe it to be better anyway, to alternate fasting period for waste elimination and then...

With high blood calcium you might want to add k2 to D intake.

This is a bit suboptimal, as the optimal is around 200-230 but fasting will temporarily increase TC and decrease HDL, I guess if you've been in 500+ caloric restriction for weeks you could be in a state similar to fasting, so you might have normalized you cholesterol already, you'll know in a...

Sounds like you did everything right. How 'high' is your cholesterol ? When you're that much in calorie deficit for an extended period of time, might be wise to not work out hard, but just increase light exercice, like simply walking more. You just need to signal your body you need your...

It's too hard to be 'deep' in keto for an extended period of time, and not clear you should. That's why most people moved away from it. If you're on/off you're already doing better than most people doing keto, but in fact are just low carb, but not enough to actualy be in ketosis. And it...

Eating properly is indeed difficult, but it's not something you can't manage. 250g of Steak one meal, 4 eggs and 100g of Ham/Sardine the other and you're at 120g of protein, which should be enough for building muscle, and definitely a whole lot better for your health in the long run than protein...

This one is a frankenfood why 30+ ingrededients, it's both whey protein and has a bunch of vitamin added. I guess if you're taking it for a couple of weeks as a supplement, maybe it could be beneficial, but I guess that would be as bad as any other ultraprocessed meat in the long run.

Why not just eat more proteins during meals?

Depend on what you're trying to achieve. If you're trying to lose weight, might be better to eat after walking, with lot of fat/protein to try to not overeat. If you're trying to fix or prevent diabetes, walking right after eating will significantly decrease blood glucose peak. If you're...
