    Ray Peat: The importance of sugar and the dangers of fat (stress) metabolism

    Yeah I read about something like this from Mark yesterday. Thanks for posting it up Laura. Interestingly enough, I was thinking to post the article below yesterday but didn't get round to it. It talks about how fat and carbohydrate diets are equally effective in weight loss. I agree with Mark...

    Methylene Blue, Mitochondrial Bioenergetics, and Disease Metabolism

    Weight gain/obesity is only one manifestation of estrogen dominance, and is not the rule. Like many physiological imbalances, it can manifest as one group of symptoms (obesity), or the complete opposite symptoms (under weight), OR may not even affect the weight whatsoever.

    Ray Peat: The importance of sugar and the dangers of fat (stress) metabolism

    I forgot about this one. The interesting thing about this study is that in the methodology the diets containing sugar were "LF/HSD and HF/HSD primarily containing refined carbohydrates and were matched for sucrose content;" Throughout the paper the authors state that the main problem with the...

    Ray Peat: The importance of sugar and the dangers of fat (stress) metabolism

    This next post is entirely in-line with the hypothesis set forth by Dr Valentine, author of the book I am currently reading called "Human Longevity: Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Bioenergetics, Molecular Biology, and Evolution". It is pretty amazing to see that the whole "oxidative stress" theory of...

    Is it too late to start a university degree? And is there any point?

    Thanks for you everyone who has commented. Just to clarify, when I wrote this: It was referring to a place in my original post that I had edited to change the wording, rather than actually saying that I felt disappointed with myself in that moment. This wasn't something that I was expecting...

    Fat Bomb - Keto Custard Recipe and variations

    Oops :lol: I will admit that I don't have much of an understanding of how metabolism works - so thank you for pointing that out A Jay. It certainly has helped - I have actually increased my amount to literally 2-3 fat bombs per day with no bad side effects (which I actually expected to get!)...

    Fat Bomb - Keto Custard Recipe and variations

    ...everyday ( we have tried our best to black out the windows but still there is some light that gets in) perhaps this is affecting fat metabolism and the ability to gain weight?
