Cheers! Really nice report. Hadn't heard of DXM before. How long did the trip last? And, do you perform any form of concentration or self-inquiry during the come up to prime the awakening to happen?

Hahaha

A very strict safety guard you can use is to ensure that the previous dose combined with the current one does not surpass unsafe limits, depending on how soon you redose. Better safe than sorry

Thanks, perhaps it's exactly what's being discussed in this thread?

Interesting. Could you describe what changed in his understanding after his deeper Awakening? PS: Love this interview. This particular question touches on an issue similar to the one the OP is describing, I think:

IIRC, 1P-LSD has been shown to be a prodrug of LSD: https://analyticalsciencejournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/dta.2821 I actually happened to watch a talk by the researcher who conducted that study (he himself being one of the subjects). If Valerie (1V-LSD) happens to also be a prodrug, which would be logically likely, it will be absorbed regardless of sublingual or oral (eating) ROA. If you didn't have a full trip I would be more inclined to believe the blotters had irregular doses — who knows.

Just not care about truth or anything else on Earth, and you can keep speaking for 1.5h+ If it were just that, the crappy fast food he eats would probably negate the effects of most of these. I wonder if people like Trump would even have the sensitivity for proper consideration of nootropics or similar supplements or lifestyle changes. I'd expect him to be more of "fix rather than prevent" mentality. That is impressive.

Now that I'm back to baseline, the main difference is that I feel a deep responsibility to honor every tiny fraction of second, every tiny speck of matter, that is the result of the ultimate miracle, the miracle of creation. I will write about my awakening in a separate topic where I can more easily refer back to what I experienced and how that shaped my understanding.

Got it. Thanks @Leo Gura

I think it depends on the type of exercise and the intensity. If you're doing longer cardio, than it's more likely that you need to replenish your glycogen stores. However, it seems that muscular glycogen does not really deplete overnight, so it also depends on how much carbohydrate you've eaten the day before/after your last workout. If you do decide to eat prior, I think whole fruits would be the best option as they digest quickly (high carb, low protein, low fat). If you are exercising shortly before/after eating something, there's even less need to worry about glucose "spikes" (term popularized by the Glucose Demoness that only cares about blood sugar readings, completely overlooking other mechanisms driving insulin resistance) — exercise causes the GLUT4 glucose transporter to move (translocate) from inside the muscle cell to the cell membrane, unlike the standard insulin-driven pathway.

I think mineral absorption can be a problem. AFAIU, Magnesium and Calcium absorption saturate within a single meal. Which means, if you spread the dose, you absorb more Calcium and Magnesium compared to taking it all at once. Take my case for example: I do 2 meals/day and I eat 1000mg+ of Calcium, roughly 400-700 each meal. Despite that, I still need to supplement 500mg Calcium to reach ideal PTH, serum Phosphate, and a urinary Calcium close to what I was told is ideal: 2mg/kg of bw per day ~= 145mg/24h urinary Calcium excretion in my case. If you find a very good endocrinologist, they'll be able to guide you into performing these types of tests to optimize intake, and potentially fix defficiencies. I learn this after showing up for a consultation with very inadequate phosphate levels, because my body was lacking Calcium and therefore eliminating Phosphate to retain Calcium.

Interesting, I’ll check the full video about sometime soon. I’ve seen an interview of him with PBD a while back, and he seemed quite biased in some ways, but who isn’t. I like Dorian quite a bit anyway.

Very nice.

Yep. Only 10 years of watching Actualized.org later… Ready for the next round even if it takes another 10y.

Nice, what are the highlights of the interview? PS: For those who didn't watch the Luimarco videos back in the day, he had some pretty funny ones:

Mescaline is the substance — although arguably not super rare — that I enjoy the most. Every time I use mescaline, if I talk to a beautiful girl, I fall in love with her.

Btw, there's also evidence on dietary sodium intake modulating the immune system.

That's why I said association rather than causation. Quoting directly from the Intersalt paper: Doesn't seem that sloppy. Notice they also analyzised within centers (same location), correcting for body weight and alcohol intake. Of course, other confounders could be present, but this is the nature of epidemiology. One shouldn't simply dismiss all epidemiological evidence simply because confounders could be present — that would be Slothful induction. Epidemiology was what allowed the legal case against DuPont (PFOA in Teflon) to succeed. To be fair, I haven't looked at all the data myself, but there seems to be strong evidence suggeting a true connection. One has to drawn their own conclusions. If you want RCTs, I attached images of some that looking compelling (from Gemini).

Hahaha +1 — the Ego will try to corrupt you into thinking you need more, and more, and more... That said, I think there are benefits to having really big goals, as they can unlock different perspectives in your mind. One must use it carefully tho, to not get paradigm locked.

To add to what others already mentioned. This was the first time I read about the mTOR -> acne connection, but it makes a lot of sense, especially when you think of anabolic steroid (ab)users (which raise and activate mTOR), who often have a lot of acne.

Interesting — what places would you recommend visiting in SE Asia? Quite interesting perspective. I've heard this from other sources as well. I agree with this statement in general, but cooking also allows us to eat foods that otherwise we wouldn't be able to, such as legumes, one of the healthiest foods out there for those who can consume them. Of course you can germinate, but that makes it really hard to consume the same quantities, pragmatically speaking.

Nice, but what can it actually do? Video falling short Seems like they have a nice team.

SOS-free diet.
