Fuck, eye problems sucks.

When I was kid, we used to go to in a gasthaus in Austria, during winter, for skiing. we went to the same house for 15 years, the dude and grandma were already old and retired when we started going there, once they went skiing with us, I was like 12 and the dude was over 80, probably around 85...

Using my Samsung watch and grok to count calories has proven to be as accurate as you can reasonably expect. Tracking for 1 month got me a deficit of about 12k calories while my balance showed about 1.2 kg of weight lose.

Hunter gatherers have a fasted blood sugar of 70 to 85 mg/dl so that's probably the optimal range. 50 to 70 is normal for someone fasting or in a real keto diet. Some people even go through their daily life at 30 mg/dl. The issue is that ketoacidosis can be fatal, you're not supposed to feel...

Wtf I have the same issue. Female dentist says I have 2 or 3 cavity saw 2 males no mention of cavities.

I had hep A a couple of years ago. Every single acute digestive track disease I've had felt pale in comparison. It does some very weird shit, and the disease just doesn't exist in the developped world, I had brought it back from Vietnam with a like 3 weeks incubation, so the doctors didn’t...

You're 40+, your body is giving you a hard time, and the first thing you do isn't cooking all your meals from wholefood isn't a rationnal behaviour. That's even the very base of modern medecine, "may your food be your first medecine" , that remain true to this day for most chronic issues...

That’s the nuclear option. I think the work of Prof. Tim Spector offers a few alternatives to try from to restore the proper gut biome, before trying that. I have UC . It took me 5 years of trials and error, but now it’s pretty much fixed. The diet that Spector didn’t work for me, but his work...

Insane that the gut/food angle is not more used against chronic inflammation / auto-immune problem.

That’s one thing that surprised me in Asia, most diabetics aren’t obese or even overweight, and they seemingly eat healthy. By seemingly I mean I suspect the rice is fucking them up and their genetics prevent them from seeing it, like white people would gain wait. You can eat 'healthy’ and...

People were not the same. Well, I guess this one was a bit of an outlier even back then. I like how he carried an unconscious guy while swimming with one arm out of a plane crash.

Wouldn’t inflammation in general increase afib? So getting help from Grok or whatever to keep carbs intake below 100 g a day help, possibly moderatly quickly. Also intermittent fasting, many studies show a benefit while none find a risks. Worth trying maybe if you haven't yet.

Walking is okay, even if you're a super whale. Can make a few kg of muscles if you're on calories deficit, high protein and walking decently. It's a good place to start, and if you have 100 pounds to wait, you don't have to wait 6 months to start. And if you just want to be healthy and live...

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1876034123001478 In this study they look at how much antibiotics people took between 2002 and 2006 and then looks at cancer from 2007 to 2019. The more antibiotics the more cancer. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10953323/ This one...

Well there are multiple studies on cancer and they put a variable 'lifetime consumption of antibiotics’ ans it increases your risk significantly, and not just 'last few years consumption'. It’s not as insane as it sounds if cancer can take a decade to be detected and if damages from...

Many studies show "permanent" damage to the immune system caused by antibiotics, as increased risk of cancer even from dose of antibiotics took 20 years earlier. My guess is that the damage isn't that permanent, it's just that antibiotics combined with absolute garbage which is the western diet...

Great christmas upgrade upgrade until it’s LAN time and you need a wheelbarrow....

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...
