Hey everyone, i just wanted to register here to share my little happiness, i've been following a little modified ray peat diet,
currently i've been eating 400-600 grams of sugar everyday, i've though a lot about this diet and if you can make it work it's very powerful, i'm just at my 5th day on this diet and my loose teeth stopped being loose, my teeth are remineralizing and some are even GROWINg, my skin looks better, no more oily skin, no more hair loss
the only negative obviously is the extreme anxiety that you get on this diet, expecially if you jump into it like i did, my guess is that this is caused by a lack of steroid hormones, well it's not only my guess, i'm almost pretty sure, but this is a transiction, even though steroid hormones are lacking the cell sensibility to these hormones is increasing,
another bad thing is that the thyroid start hurting at the end of the day when i'm getting into the 500-600 g of sugar range + 3 liters of milk(for now), yes this gives the other glands a big rest but overworks the thyroid so it's important to keep fat intake high enough.
What i disagree on ray peat:
exercise: exercise done right(eating sugar before, while doing it and after + protein) is extremely beneficial, it evolves the organs
glands beside the thyroid and steroid hormones like testosterone(male), i think they are pretty important, minimizing their importance probably either reduces your lifespan or makes you grow like an ermafrodite and give you anxiety in exchange for an increased intelligence and creativity, basically destroying your social and sexual life.
It's important to not let glands compete but cooperate, not letting the thyroid gland do all the work. Balance is far more important and efficient.
I also disagree on the a little extremistic view on supplements and impurities, let's face it, getting all the nutrition from food is a little expensive and difficult, it's important but with the increased metabolic rate we get more pros than cons by supplementing synthetic/impure vitamins, the real thing is the real deal, but "something" is better than nothing.
For everything else, YAY RAY PEAT, btw did you notice my awesome nickname? I came up with it in 3 seconds due to the increased creativity, just kidding, maybe not....
