Cannabis. Meditating on cannabis can sometimes feel like a psychedelic experience. It's legal in many places + easy to obtain. Harm can be minimized if using a dry herb vaporizer or edibles, and keeping use sparse.

According to google, most foods (e.g. cooked meals, milk, yogurt, juices, etc.) can be left outside of the fridge for maximum 2 hours. After which they say it becomes unsafe to eat. Is this true? I find it hard to believe because then how the heck did people survive until a few decades ago when there was no fridge?

Is there any truth to this? Has any of you come into contact with jesus / christ / the holy spirit? How was it like and how did you do it?

Raw vegetables are very hard to break down and digest. Yet popular raw food movements have us convinced that raw vegetables are the most nutritious thing on the planet (I remember thinking so! And smashing those raw veggie platters at parties, thinking I was having a great low calorie snack 🤦🏻‍♀️) When it comes to nutrient-dense food, we must remember the difference between nutrient content vs. nutrient bioavailability. A food may contain some amount of nutrients, but how much of those nutrients are we actually able to absorb in our digestive tract? When it comes to raw vegetables, there are two potential problems. The first is anti-nutrients, which are naturally occurring compounds that can reduce the absorption of some nutrients. The second is raw vegetables are just really hard to break down and digest. Remember high school biology class where we discussed the difference between plant and animal cells? For many vegetables, some of the important nutrients are contained within those tough cell walls. So, when thinking about the best food for humans, we must consider those tough cell walls. Cooking vegetables can improve digestion by breaking down or pre-digesting those tough fibers in the cell walls & the anti-nutrients. Which not only reduces the digestive burden in your gut, but also improves nutrient availability. Here are just 2 examples of how cooking vegetables improves some of the nutrient availability: 1. Raw cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, collard greens, kale, Brussel sprouts, etc.) contain goitrogens which can inhibit the thyroid’s utilization and uptake of iodine. Thus, eating a lot of these raw veggies can suppress thyroid function, leading to a slower metabolism and impaired hormone production. However, cooking cruciferous vegetables significantly reduces levels of goitrogens. 2. Raw spinach is loaded with oxalic acid, an anti-nutrient that blocks the absorption of calcium and zinc. Oxalates are broken down under high temps when veggies are cooked. Yes, you will lose some of the Vitamin C and B Vitamins since these are water soluble nutrients. But Vitamin C is an easy nutrient to get from fruit, and B vitamins are high in liver and animal products. Plus, if you are making a soup or stew, the water-soluble vitamins and minerals are leached into the broth/soup, which you consume in the end.

Be careful, people who seem “spiritual” on the surface are often dealing with heavy traumas that they try to escape through spirituality. Are you sure you’d want to date such a girl?

Cannabis, just like other psychedelics, requires you to be in perfect health if you want to use it. If you have any issues with hormones, thyroid, etc. (like most people have nowadays) it can become quite unpredictable. However, when one is truly healthy, there can also be value in using it once in a while. I find it allows for deeper introspection, better ability to concentrate during meditation, and deeper insights during contemplation. Similar to a psychedelic trip but when you don't want to go as deep in. Also, it's easier to get where it's legal. Moreover, there are many strategies to mitigate the negative effects of MJ: Vaporizing it (so avoiding combustion) in a dry herb vaporizer. supplementing L-Theanine: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7842745 supplementing COX-2 inhibitors (aspirin, curcumin, ginger): https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3918429 Chronic marijuana use can lead to memory problems due to the internalization of CB1 receptors, which also affects NMDA receptors critical for memory function, learning, and synaptic plasticity, and this effect is exacerbated by the natural decline of NMDA receptors with age. Studies suggest that Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALCAR) may counteract these memory deficits by increasing NMDA receptor numbers or attenuating their decline, with users reporting noticeable improvements in memory after a few days of ALCAR supplementation.

@Leo Gura when can we expect the course for awakened cognition? Looking forward to it

It's continuing to escalate

Can you share the names of those studios? 😁

For example?

Can you use God's Intelligence to play chess?

An improperly treated root canal can lead to systemic inflammation. This is very common because it’s hard to properly perform a RCT and remove all bacteria that get trapped in the small tubules of your tooth.
