Facts you're one of the only people I know who hate potatoes as much as I do, I've been knowing this for ages now, I even have a name for it.This is the best thread ever.
Potatoes destroy all aspects of my quality of life, apart from sleeping like a baby for 10 hours.
I agree ginger crashes me and feels serotonergic.
DHT is another subject that makes me confused because everything seems to block DHT, it's hard to find foods that don't.I have looked into this more and found a study which implies that ginger is a 5ar inhibitor:

I guess I will remove ginger from my stack for now and assess.
There’s not a single food that doesn’t block one thing or downregulate another.DHT is another subject that makes me confused because everything seems to block DHT, it's hard to find foods that don't.
As far as carbohydrates go, the only carbs that are pro-DHT seem to be:
Milk (Increases 5AR)
White potatoes (Contains nicotine, which increases 5AR)
African yams (Diosgenin, increases DHT)
Sorghum (Increases DHT)
But I don't consume any of these foods, I get bad reactions to dairy, white potatoes mess me up mentally as well as my digestion, african yams kill my libido and feels serotonergic (although I feel the androgenic feeling from it) and sorghum is a grain which I haven't tried and don't think I will.
And even sweet potatoes contain lignans which block 5 alpha reductase, many people don't know that. Same with oranges and orange juice which contain beta-sistosterol
@Starchless This really resonated with my situation - The rage and yelling at my parents and my sister. Potatoes were a major trigger, also synthetic B vitamins and High Beta Carotene/Vit A foods.I also remember, when I was eating potatoes as my primary carb source, I would have major outbursts with my parents and get into lots of arguments during that time, I observed the effect potatoes have on people's behaviour in real life because I was very interested:
Have you tried eating potatoes by themself? That could be the problem. Starches and meat for instance are a horrible combination, yet meat and potatoes is one of the most common meals in America. Starches were meant to be eaten by themselves or with other vegetables. I've read a book on food combining and it is considered the worst combination possible. Meat and starches. Your stomach secretes two totally different acids (forgot the names) at the same time and you end up not digesting any of the food hardly at all. Bad digestion = more serotonin? Something to think about. I just actually ate half a bag of boulder canyon potato chips and I feel fine because I am not combining them with anything else.DHT is another subject that makes me confused because everything seems to block DHT, it's hard to find foods that don't.

Bro, i totally get the ***t feeling from eating potatos, i got extremely angry just from funny taunting messages received from a girl that i liked and i totally overreacted the situation.
And this effect is noticable within minutes of eating the potatos.
Im experimenting with oats these days for breakfast and i cannot say it is making me feel good. But the morning coffee seems to mediate the bad, not so uplifting effects from the oats. In case i have a hard day at work and need to be mentally sharp then i have to skip the oats for sure.
Too bad im kinda addicted to oats with protein powder and berries, the most tasteful food in my day:/

The Tao of Health, Sex, and Longevity by Daniel Reid. It goes pretty in depth on the food combining.This is interesting, what book is this?
Are you talking about the President ? Sorry, couldn't resist.Mr. Potato Head is not happy with this thread
FunnyAre you talking about the President ? Sorry, couldn't resist.
Mr. Potato Head thinks some folks are prejudiced against potatoes. Like sweet potatoes are better. Or rice. Or squash. No one likes brown bumpy, slightly dirty, oval shaped vegtables of deliciousness?Are you talking about the President ? Sorry, couldn't resist.
I noticed the same after a couple days. Numb penis, plugged nose, sore throat, etc. They give me a real spacey feeling.This is the best thread ever.

Thats definitely intestinal trouble, windinthepines posted an email from Ray about that sort of thing.I noticed the same after a couple days. Numb penis, plugged nose, sore throat, etc. They give me a real spacey feeling.
I think it’s the soluble fiber. Sweet potatoes are the absolute worst. Crushing fatigue and feel borderline autistic. Milk only usually alleviates the mental fog probably due to lack of fermentation but also causes other problems for me.Thats definitely intestinal trouble, windinthepines posted an email from Ray about that sort of thing.
