Higher protein intake, protein utilization, sugar utilization, liver support, building muscle and avoiding ffa blocking chemicals could help.

Ray is talking about women in that post. Also he said heavier body weight, no more body fat is better, which goes along with many studies showing maintenance of lean mass into old age is one of the best predictors of longevity.
" In the resting state, muscles consume mainly fats, so maintaining relatively large muscles is important for preventing the accumulation of fats.” Ray Peat
The higher the body fat percentage the higher amount of aromatase, because the fatter you get the more PUFA you will have in tissues.
Then you should lose weightBut what if you are ALREADY FAT.
Then you should lose weight
Made my point. I’m out of here.
the main things involved in gastric acid production are peptide hormones (enough protein), sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and CO2...so have enough protein, potassium and salt (sodium chloride, not baking soda) mainly...and don't be dehydrated. You also just need enough raw energy to produce CO2(thiamine, caffeine) that can be split and used in HCL production. If you are already low, it can be hard because you obviously need to digest energy to then produce energy. I think milk could actually be a good tool if you are fine with lactose. If not, decoct (boil in water and strain) cacao powder or nibs or something with a lot of potassium, coffee could be helpful but sometimes it is too strong...gauge it by taste (fruit might be hard if the digestion is already low, and fiberous food), add a bit of cane sugar and pinch salt to help. Carrot juice, though not recommended long term or in large amounts, is actually a really good tool to rebuild digestion...tons of potassium, some sodium and chloride, easy to digest...some protein but youd probably want something else in addition.
You gotta keep in mind though, you cant just fix digestion and expect it to stay fully firing, you kind of have to get into a flow of consistenly keeping it up...basically through diet is the main way. Stress can temporarily lower it, but if it was already strong to begin with it will spring back as or almost as strong after the stress subsides...where as if it was low to begin with, even lowering stress wouldn't bring it up to par
Lose it slowly. While eating a good diet, and using aspirin and a good vitamin E. I think impatient people trying to lose fat too quick are the ones who damage themselves ( crash diets )I agree.
Not sure what men should have. But if they are already overweight, what should men or women do?
Vitamin E is important during fat loss because it protects from released PUFA
Whatever it is, the question is, if you are TOO FAT, is it BEST to lose the fat. And I contend it is not unless you lose it very, very slowly and very carefully.
Today's message is always "lose weight and you will solve your problems" but I think it's "lose weight and you will be in worse health" 95% of the time.
Well, if people lost it "very, very slowly and carefully", then they'd be in better health. So they should los it the "right" way.
This is NOT arguing that being fat is good. But once fat, becoming thin is not usually the answer.
. For example, young women who are overweight have better outcome of breast cancer (a lower incidence of breast cancer) than those who are underweight.
avoiding ffa blocking chemicals could help.
+ saturated fat for stable sugar, fat slow digestion so you will be full longer and you can eat less
+ taurine for protein utilization
ol Martin Berkhan isn't the best example of health. He's just shredded. He has displayed mental instability a few times which boiled over in 2013 after falling out with other big names in online fitness and took a hiatus.

Aspirin might slow weight loss, but its very protective during.Is aspirin really good when loosing fat? That an niacinamide are supposed to block FFA. Is that what you want when your goal is fat loss? Maybe it is. Maybe aspirin becomes more important when trying to lose weight. Want to clarify.
Proof?Martin is a long time steroid user. I have no problem with that at all but it absolutely needs to be considered if you're going to use him as a model.
Yup, what you said definitely proves hes mentally unstable and unhealthy. His social media accounts have been active from 2012 to currently, along with taking clients, so I dont know what your talking about. Also, he IS working on a book, he wants it to be good, so hes taking his time.Lol Martin Berkhan isn't the best example of health. He's just shredded. He has displayed mental instability a few times which boiled over in 2013 after falling out with other big names in online fitness and took a hiatus. He posted a long rant at that time complaining about the industry hopping on the IF bandwagon he brought attention to (entitlement), without the scientific scrutiny he applied. He wanted to release a Leangains book, but was beaten to the punch when "The 8 hour diet" released. Apparent helplessness ensued, and he bowed out the limelight for quite some time.
Proof?
Its interesting how every person who has an impressive physique is accused of steroids.
Can't someone's personality just be a little off? They can be really healthy but just be not perfect behavior? Also someone could seem the nicest guy but unhealthy.

Understood.Absolutely.
He's irrationally blown up numerous times on Lyle Mcdonalds forums, Facebook, bodybuilding.com forums along with the Leangains blog. He's since deleted the facebook and leangains post because they were a bad look. This all dates back to 2008. Maybe it was the increased irritability that comes with some of his practices. I'm just pointing out behaviors this community likes to equate with unhealthy. I was an avid follower of him, Lyle, and others in their circle for many years before all the low/no carb and IF'ing inevitably took its toll on my metabolism.
