There is your response Whatever is keeping you in the state of fear and anxiety has to be addressed. Maybe some shadow work needs to be done to identify the cause of your subconscious fears? Could be a repression of some sort? Radical Honesty by Dawn Blanton talks about this quite a bit and so does Gabor Matte in "When the Body says No"

I assume you meant to say Your "brain"? Yes, it is, it is made mostly fats: docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) a 22 carbon-chain fatty acid with 5 double bonds and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) a 20 carbon chain fatty acid with 5 double bonds. Butyric acid a short chain (4 carbons) fatty acids that is fully saturated. They are "fats" but of completely different molecular structure and property. It is important to distinguish between saturated and unsaturated types of fats and than between length of chain and bond saturation. I am not bashing on ketogenic diet. It can be the only way for people with epilepsy and schizophrenia but an unmanaged ketogenic diet is a cardiovascular disaster. I've seen keto followers eat gigantic chunks of butter claiming they are doing a healthy thing. Stripping human diet of fruits, legumes and most vegetables and calling is healthy is a very peculiar thing. BTW human milk is 3-5% fat and around 1% proteins and 8% carbohydrates including Human Milk Oligosacharides. Most of the fats are medium - to - long-chain fatty acids. If there are any saturated fats in maternal milk it will be very tiny amounts. The rest of the consistency is water filled with immunoglobulins and growth factors to create the newborns adaptive immunity. Careful where you source your facts

Not sure if I would classify butter as "healthy fat". SCFA are easily obtainable from fibre-rich foods like legumes. The gut bacteria process the non-soluble fibre and create the short-chain fatty acids. Eating too much butter or other heavy sources of saturated fats can actually have a quite damaging effect on your microbiome. Most people eat too much of Saturated fats as it is.

how long have you been taking Ritalin?

You are in the wrong career my friend! You better start finding your life purpose before that ship sails or you'll end up on antidepressants like half of the US

Why would you even watch this? This is just another mass entertainment to make people feel better about themselves by watching people who are sick....just wrapped in some nicely copywrited jibber jabber.

Was your TSH above 2.0? A lot of people walk around with subclinical hypothyroidism never put on levothyroxine because they don't make it into the textbook values. Do you recall your T3 value? DId they find any thyroid antibodies? This is a REALLY interesting combination. As far as I know clomiphene is given to women with PCOS, with amenorrhea or with anovulation. I've never heard about it being prescribed to a male. How is it combating reversed T3? Clomiphene regulates LH and FSH which regulate Oestrogen. Are you sure this wasn't given for something else? DOes your doctor think you are producing too much oestrogen? That would make sense. You could be aromatising all your testosterone into oestrogen, Lot of men have this issue. Reverse T3 you'll see raised in periods of prolonged starvation and stress. Have you done any excessive fasting or gone through a rough period recently like bereavement, accident or so? Liothyronine is basically a synthetic T3. It's interesting, in UK you would only get T4 at best. Was your T3 low? Regarding supplements: were you prescribed DHEA? What is OPC?

Seconded. Gymnastic rings are an amazing tool. Painful and hard but you will see results quicker than with TRX or rubber bands. The core is at the centre of every exercise as you try to stabilise them which is an added benefit. And you can do a lot of beginner moves as well as highly advanced ones.

Having a doctor with permanent erection operate on you will make you reconsider leaving your quarantine!

Needing to be a "star" is a pretty orange trait to me already. High consciousness people don't need to be the "top", the best and the most popular. The alpha machoism is a self-limiting vicious circle that never ends. Once you are alpha, all betas will be looking to steal your crown. It is a life in fear and neurotic desire to be the best. It can never last. You can become incredibly good in a sport without needing to be a superstar. Lot of highly conscious people do.

Anything above 1.5g of Sodium (not NaCl) is more than 99% of people will need. Research on sodium is fairly conflicted with a lot of deliberate misinformation. Even lot of the large systemic studies have been looking at "recollection of data" rather than measuring people's intake in a lab. This is industry-prefer way to test as recollection (e.g. people write how much they THINK they ate) is usually headings towards underestimation rather than overestimation. A true study on effects of sodium require 24 hour urine monitoring for several weeks and to this day only a handful of such studies have been conducted as they are time consuming, expensive and quite restrictive to the participants. Also you cannot use people who are ill, diabetic or have kidney disease as they will skew your results. Another popular tactic for industry-funded research. This was a nice systemic review https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jch.12877 of very few studies that met the criteria IN SUMMARY : health was improved as sodium intake was decreased. The group who faired the best in terms of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality was the group with the intake of 1.2 - 1.5 grams of sodium (which translates to 3-4 grams of salt). Anything above 1.5 of sodium generally is unnecessary for majority of the population and as your numbers go higher, you are risking a self-harm.

In Eastern Europe where I grew up, people would often take cold showers simply because it took ages to heat up water with the ancient heating boiler system. It is still considered completely normal to only take cold showers in the morning. Lot of people go to swim in rivers in winter or just lay in the snow. I think the cold exposure not only builds your immunity but also resilience to stress and increases your pain threshold. I remember when my grandfather challenged me to stand barefoot in snow. I was crying after 30 seconds, he stood there for probably 5 minutes and than just got bored. .....or maybe he just had early diabetic neuropathy in his feet...

It was not naturally the food per see but the methods of adaptations. Eating meat had a lot to do with it but it was the hominid needing to learn to hunt, to track the pray to observe its behaviour to come up with strategies for separating the weak animals, creating tools, adapting new shelters etc. It wasn't the fruit and it wasn't the meat necessarily, it was the entire evolution, the change in climate and the constant need to adapt. If there was a thread from a neighbouring tribe, defence strategies would have to be considered, people would sleep in shifts, there was always someone guarding the fire. Reductionism such as saying fruit grew our brains is usually missing the large picture.

The only way to minimize the risk of vaccination is not to get vaccinated. That being said, The cases where vaccination has a negative consequence are so rare that it is nearly impossible to establish any correlation. If vaccination was causing disease in the majority of people, it would have been picked up a long time ago. Medical doctors can report the occurrence of new diseases to the government in the same way all COVID19 cases are reported. These data are compiled and managed so if there is suddenly an increase in children having a certain disease in a certain area at a certain time, there will be an investigation. Yes, there are the rare occurrences of suspected autism and people developing the disease they were vaccinated of but you are looking at less than 0.001% cases. There are lots of rare genetic occurrences where people simply develop certain diseases because their genes have been mutated in prenatal state, maybe the mom was exposed to excessive mercury or lead or there was a familiar mutation that after 1000 years took hold and developed into something rare. There are people who can die from eating bread and nuts and other never have symptoms. What I'm trying to say is that we cannot discredit the component of individual physiology and that some individuals are just so weak, ill and immunocompromised that a vaccine may kill them. At the same time children born by caesarean section without breastfeeding or children born to traumatised mothers have increased risk of autism, and schizophrenia. Now if a kid born through c-section that was never breastfed and put on a cycle of antibiotics right after birth gets vaccinated with DPT and develops autism, how are you going to figure out what was the cause. You can't. The point is that vaccines are useful and they have a purpose in medicine. Eradication of many diseases was largely due to vaccination development. Same as antibiotics they have saved hundreds of millions of lives but they should not be abused such as giving newborns 10 vaccines or using antibiotics on someone coming with common flu....that is an atrocity. The amount of aluminium in a single vaccine is so slight that you should be more worried about cooking with older utensils, using aluminium cans, putting tomato sauce on a pan, eating fish and seafood, eating factory-farmed food, pesticides on cheap fruit & vegetables, living within a mile from a busy street, drinking water in a city from a tap, using paints, sanitisers and cleaning chemicals, using deodorants, perfumes and cheap cosmetics....the list goes on. We can go crazy over a few heavy metals in a shot of vaccine yet completely disregard all the other sources. I'm not going to disregard the point that vaccines are a multibillion industry with heavy lobby and a lot of hypocrisy and devilry by the big pharma. But we shouldn't dump everything in single bag. Not all the discoveries of modern medicine are harmful. People can die from eating too much magnesium or turmeric .....

Let it go. It is not your responsibility to cater to everyone's feeling and emotions. He did deserve an explanation and provided that you gave him an explanation, any immature response such as "radio silence" only portraits their levels of emotional development. Move along with your life

Funny how these threads always end up in pro-vegan and against-vegan polarisation. Vegan Gains has turned a lot of people towards healthier lifestyle and has shed more light on the way human beings treat animals than anyone else on youtube maybe besides Freelee and Durianrider years ago before they become the sprite-promoter and the hairy jungle girl. Yet his militant and inconsiderate approach has given rise to many opponents of the moment and have also alienated a lot of people who would have otherwise been attracted if they came across someone like Derek Simnet instead. JP at least has the common decency to always say that his approach is "not a medical advice " and that he is not an expert where his daughter is just selling flat-out lies and misinformation to people. Elimination diets are effective in many cases and have been widely used for a variety of conditions but the one thing in common is that they are finite. Usually up to 3 months. With the exception of coeliac disease and gluten. Anyone selling a life-long elimination diet is either deluded themselves or does not have their client's/patients recovery as highest priority and hence is just trying to make money of them. Protocols for the autoimmune disease have to be tailored to each individual person and can only be done after fully understanding the person, their life, their background, their medical conditions, pharmaceutical history and any aggravating factor. Immediate reduction of symptoms after days is clear sign that disease has only been suppressed not healed as healing of something that has been developing for a decade does not happen overnight.

I wonder how do we escape 5G in years to come unless we can all move to a mountain reservoirs somewhere, the coverage will dominate the entire country. Lots of lobby and petitions going against but they probably won't be able to stop them in the end.

You can't. People will project on to you even if you are the most generous, loving and kindhearted person. There is always something they will project. It is the Don Quijote's battle against windmills. Thank them for their opinion but make nothing of it. It is easy to separate genuine constructive criticism with the intention of uplifting the other that comes from the place of love and caring and criticism or projection that is just shooting from the hip. This form bears no value and depicts current emotional and spiritual state of the person projecting rather than something you did

careful with vitamin D megadosing. Vitamin D increases the production of ACE2 protein that the new SARS coronavirus 2 uses to enter the cell. Taking 150,000 IU unless you suffer from extreme osteoporosis along with calcium and K2 is actually a bit dangerous as there is a chance of toxicity.

There is a rare condition called aquagenic urticaria where your skin reacts to water basically. You should speak to your doctor and see what they think. I have no idea how that is treated but could be like @pluto said due to chlorination.

I think NAC is more therapeutic than preventative. For people who either have a glutathione deficiency, cancer, toxicity or any other condition that is devastating their antioxidant defences, NAC can help as long as the other amino acids for glutathione synthesis ( glutamate, glycine) are present. Or if there is a genetic snip on a gene responsible for glutathione production. In terms of prevention or supplementing "just in case" you would probably be better of ensuring you eat a sufficient amount of dietary protein to have all glutathione precursors as well as cofactors (B6 and few other, don't remember anymore)

Robert Morse ND talked about this in many of his videos, he says that the only true colour is blue and brown, he says everything else is distorted by body being unhealthy and storing excessive mucous in the cranial area. I don't know how much I believe that but what if.........
