  1. this stuff works better in combination. The problem with lead chelation is that there are very few studies and so it comes down to doctors and naturopaths experimenting. For lead, it appears a combination of pharmaceuticals: DMSA & CaEDTA with NAC to buff up your glutathione. It appears this combination is more effective together than either alone. + add to the mix some botanicals like curcumin + garlic extract +black cumin seeds + a potent multimineral complex with high levels if vitamin E + extra vitamin C to bump up exogenous antioxidants,. Unfortunately here in the UK, DMSA is owned by medicine so you would need a doctor to support you...or get it from States but be careful and study this thoroughly before you get into it Also in terms of lead, first of all identify your main sources of exposure and cut those out.
  2. @Podie45 maybe get some part time, to cover up expenses & bills and spend the rest of the time thinking about your future, strategising and possibly re-educating yourself. As someone who has gone through the same process, it is worth every hour and all those thousands of dollars I invested in it. If you feels stuck, consider buying the LP course or get a life coach as suggested above
  3. Love this, maybe this is what it took to get out of your own way and to see what has been present for years just behind the wall of suppressed emotions. Happy for you!!
  4. @Rigel some time ago my answer would have been sardines, mackerel & wild Alaskan salmon. But now having looked into it deeper, I am losing faith in all seafood Salmon - most of it worldwide is heavily polluted even wild Alaskan & Pacific one. Contaminated with mercury, arsenic, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) & organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) Sardines - only trace amounts of mercury but extremely contaminated with PCBs & brominated flame retardants as well as arsenic mackerel - similar to sardine + 100% of fish are contaminated with microplastics Have it as a special treat food but I no longer agree with the suggestion that fish should be consumed 3 times a week. Maybe once. Oh and yeah, seaweeds are fine same as algae oil.
  5. I don't think you can wash it out completely. The pesticides are kinda ingrown, they are part of the cellulose structure. You can't wash that away but I guess putting a bit of extra work and rubbing will make sure that if the grocery guy scratched his butt before touching your strawberries, you don't eat that.
  6. I prefer Oat milks simply due to it being more sustainable imo and it is super easy and cheap to make it at home with a milk bag. Or home-made almond milk is nice but make sure to use the scraps and not throw it away
  7. but of course, the nature of survival doesn't end with animals
  8. @marinaaniram happy for you but not need to make duplicate post. You types exactly the same thing in the other post
  9. agreed, it was a depiction of the fact that as long as you are not on the top of food chain (and even then not) your survival is never guaranteed.
  10. appeal to nature in a consciousness development debate does not have a lot of power. In the nature, a predator will come and kill your babies. They will steal your infant, rip them to pieces and eat them and if they didn't have enough they will come back and kill you as well. Nature is the most merciless and savage place there is. Nothing is there to protect you, every creature is 100% selfish. If we lived by nature it would be completely normal for your neighbour to murder your entire family, occupy your home, take all your possessions and get away with it with 0 consequences,. To put it into perspective, the nature is a mix of the environment you see in Fallout, Borderlands or Mad Max. Complete and utter ruthless savagery
  11. @Lyubov was there anything else in the test you'd be comfortable sharing? How is your Blood Pressure? Did they measure CRP? Being a 29 year old male you may also consider asking for assessment for: * homocysteine * familial hypercholesterolemia * HbA1C This would help you get a bigger picture which includes: potential genetic inpout, blood sugar & whether there could be something else driving this. But generally as everybody above pretty much sad it, lose the belly and start eating natural whole foods. Perhaps consider reading one of Dr Michael Greger's Books.
  12. @freejoy oh man nice find !!
  13. in some countries this can get you in a lot of trouble. Then what, would you pepper spray the girl who slapped you? Or will you taze her? You know those things can give the victim an instant cardiac arrest especially in people with a preexisting heart condition (many have this but don't know about it). Would you say "but your higness, she slapped me?" as you're being escorted to serve your 30 year sentence?
  14. You can probably use your credit/debit card for payment? You should not need Paypal for that
  15. I got bad vibes about this 2019 post being reopened. Think about raising new topic folks
  16. @OBEler do you think her migraines are coming from a tension within? Kinda like an internal conflict. That would explain the LSD being effective. Otherwise it would be a good idea to look at her overall health as well. Couple of pointers you guys may want to look into: * hydration * stimulant intake * salt intake * additives in food luke sulphates, phosphates, sweeteners - make sure to cut all junk including takeaway meals, fast food, sweets and stuff like that * animal protein intake * chronic stress * drugs - birth control, painkillers, SSRIs, other drugs * exploring her digestive system (does she get constipated often? heavy use of antibiotics in the past?) * depression & other mood issues? * how is her eye health? does she strain her eyes a lot? * could be hypocaloric diet and lack of dietary protein as well * sleep issues * food allergies/sensitivities are also a concern * histamine-rich foods
  17. @mmKay bro Frank Tufano? ?? I'm sorry, im saying this from the place of open mindedness but....Frank Tufano?? No way, this guys is the king of liars, manipulators and dickheads on health YouTube. He constantly makes shit up, he completely ignored facts and known research and frequently attacks other people. I think frank is even worse than Sv3rige
  18. unless this mindset changes you are on your way to becoming an alcoholic yes. Try to experiment with other forms of relaxation and letting go. Alcohol does not relax your body, it just shuts down the brain centre responsible for sensing that stress. The tension is still there. Also observe how you feel next day. The last thing you want to do is to giv3e up your internal coping mechanisms and rely on something external to make you happy. That's a one way door towards mystery and depression
  19. It could be that your cortisol receptors in hypothalamus (executive hormonal centre in brain) & amygdala (emotional region) have downregulated due to prolonged chronic stress and so there is no more cortisol hanging around the body (has nowhere to go). This is a natural adaptation to prolonged stress. It could simply be an indication that your body has been experiencing mild levels of stress for a very long time and it needs to be managed Since this is no a salivary but serum cortisol, this is extremely tightly controlled in the body so I don't think it means that there is too much of it, what is probably happening is simply that the feedback loop in the amygdala -> hypothalamus - adrenals axis is not working 100% and your brain has become slightly cortisol resistant (this can be addressed through stress- reduction) Long story short: you need to start a very regular and rigorous meditative practice and doing some serious relaxation exercises All sources of stress need to be looked into as well
  20. Was the cortisol measured through blood sample or saliva sample? How many samples did they take? At what time of the day? Were you fasted when the sample was taken?
  21. My research into gut-brain-microbiome has gone really deep now. This is such as mind-blowing and fascinating area of the body to research. Looking into connections between gut permeability, microbiome, blood-brain barrier, dysbiosis, mental health and low fibre diet. Wonder how many people walking around with mental health problems actually have gut problems in reality. Have seen the gut-mental health connection in my practice few times as well and it always fascinated me how much the two are connected and how much a brain fog can clear if digestion is fixed...although sometimes that is easier said than done and it doesn't always work. The human body is such a wonderful mystery and I get fascinated like a child given a candy with each new connection and each new puzzle of the whole jigsaw I discover. An old friend of mine reached out me with gestational diabetes while being in the final trimester. She was told she'd be put on metformin if her blood sugar control wouldn't improve. Lucky enough we got her back to green numbers and she started gaining weight again, in fact 2 kilos in week 1 so I'm happy with her progress, she's been an amazing person to work with. Interesting how sometimes so little can do so much in terms of support. Didn't think I'd ever be supporting a pregnancy or fertility client but here I am researching pregnancy diet. I'm really excited to be a part of this stage of her life, having a hand in helping to create the foundations of a new life is a wonderful experience. 8 hour webinar yesterday at work. Key takeaways: "I need to get the hell out of that place already", been a while since I felt so out of place, so out of touch and so disinterested in what was shared. I am forever grateful to my company for the employment 6 years ago when I just finished my internship and had little experience but I'd like this to be the last corporate job ever. I can see this now becoming a reality in next 1-2 years but would be cool if I could do that this year. Maybe some things are not meant to be pushed and I need to practice more gratitude and appreciation, that's for sure
  22. there you go ! All the nootropics anyone really needs
  23. Deliberately cutting down on your sleep destroys your neuroplasticity, slows down metabolism, decreases BDNF, raises inflammatory markers and increases cancer risk later in life. I wouldn't believe any biohacker or youtuber (not even professor) who says they can get away with 5 hours of sleep while they are on cocktail of 50 supplements, adaptogens, nootropics and 300 mg of caffeine per day to prevent them from collapsing. Sleep is something we cannot cheat or shortcut, you just gotta allow yourself to have it. Otherwise your life candle will burn from both ends That being said I do believe that maybe...maybe you can get to a level of spiritual & energetic development that somehow you can get away with less. Maybe Sadguru can but most of us aren't at that level and never will be so best to stick with what is known
  24. sorry but this is a horrible idea. These are 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors preventing conversion of testosterone to DHT and they are interfering with your steroid hormone balance, testosterone balance and will destroy your libido and sex drive. These are medical drugs for men with non-malignant prostate cancer or BPH and should never be taken by healthy men. They have massive side effects including suicidal tendencies
