Re: Novidez's Journey - From non-Wai to Wai

I think Chris Kresser has a more nuanced and correct view of fructose: Is fructose uniquely fattening? Dr. Lustig argues that, when compared to glucose, fructose is uniquely fattening. He claims that fructose is the most efficient substrate for de novo lipogenesis (DNL), which is the process by whic...

Re: Novidez's Journey - From non-Wai to Wai

Okay, Novidez, I see you are a bit stressed, But let's keep things clear, this is not the end of the world, right? Imagine you are 80, and looking back at your life, would this really matter? This moment? You have some higher adrenaline levels, you have some inflammation at some places. Well, I have...

Did you have those problems already, or are they new?

Re: Novidez's Journey - From non-Wai to Wai

But those reference values, those are based on averages right? They not say, that if you have less than this, then you will have omega-6 deficit symptoms ... If they say that, I want to see the science, because I reeeeeeally doubt it.

Re: Novidez's Journey - From non-Wai to Wai

If you consume fish and egg yolks you should have all the omega-6 and omega-3 that you need. I would surely not worry about that.

Re: ketogenic diet

Hee, panacea, I think this discussion is really interesting, and you bring in interesting point, but I think it may be better to keep caps a little bit more down, otherwise, people may interpret the tone as being to "aggressive". :-) But on-topic. What I don't understand, do you think insulin spikes...

Re: Ray Peat..Haidut..Ede...etc

I think it is impossible on any diet that contains fat to have too little omega-6. Just look at omega-6 content of food. They all have it. If you have too little omega-6, I think a side effect should be that you have very little inflammation (no inflammatory prostaglandins). But it will be very hard...

Re: Ray Peat..Haidut..Ede...etc

I think PUFA should be low, and omega 6, omega 3 in equal ratio more and less.

One thing, your sleep rhythm is very irregular, I think that can cause a lot of problems. If I sleep irregular like that, I don't feel good at all

Re: Life expectancy and Diet

Well, I don't think it is a useless question, but I don't know. RRM would probably say that Wai Warrior should give you pretty much the highest life expectancy possible. Sometimes I just wished I had a good argument not to only be able to answer my own doubts about the Sugar issue but also if someon...

Re: Ray Peat..Haidut..Ede...etc

I think ray peat diet is more similar to wai diet. He also warns for cooking eggs, because of oxidizing cholesterol. Non fatty fish and meat are part of both diets. Vegetables are excluded in both. Both diets warn against fiber. I think RRMs orange juice + egg yolks + sugar + wild salmon, is pretty ...

Re: Emeira's Diary

Thanks for telling us about your hair. 3 years, that must be a really good routine, for you to have kept it so long. @ Kasper...Does your hair feel very soft, soft, stiff, crunchy or dry? But you missed my most important question. (at least for girls this is like the ultimate question.) Is the hair...

Re: Emeira's Diary

What is your hair strand thickness like: ultra fine, fine, normal, thick, wiry? I would say kind of thick, but on my hairline, it is thinner, I'm slowly balding there. Do you lose hair because of your shampoo or conditioner? I don't know. I'm not loosing much hair, but I'm using this for 3 years or...
