    Poop Out More PUFA For Maximum Deficiency - (Alert! Human Study)

    In this study, humans passed 16.8-17.8% of the fat contained in the whole peanuts but as little as 4.2% of the peanut butter fat. So extra processing dramatically increased fat/pufa absorption. Extrapolating from this study, raw corn is better than cooked corn or corn flour in the context of...

    Absorption rate of epsom salt

    Do know you guys know if the ph value does make a difference in the absorption rate of the magnesium? Llet’s say someone takes a magnesium bath, does the ph value of the water matter? A friend of mine wants to add epsom salt to his whirlpool (with a lower ph) and is not sure if it will affect...

    Taurine 30mg/kg improves fat digestion / absorption ~20% (bile connection)

    https://www.nature.com/articles/pr19852006.pdf?origin=ppub ^ Looks useful for people who get fatty stools / problems with low bile. Taurine conjugates fat soluable bile acids produced by the liver & gives them an added water soluble property which helps in the process of fat absorption through...

    Milk or water are optimal drinks for (oral) vitamin D bioavailability

    Just a quick post about something I thought many people will probably find interesting, considering the widespread use of oral vitamin D supplements. The findings of the study are a bit surprising, considering that vitamin D is one of the "fat-soluble" vitamins and as such is expected to be...

    Does coffee interfere with vitamin E oral absorption?

    Hey all, I take my vitamin E softgels orally because they're too hard to squeeze when cut open, but I take them with meals and I drink coffee a lot with my meals. Does coffee interfere with oral vitamin E absorption? Thank you

    Navel Application / Absorption Rivals Intravenous One, Skin Route Not Far Behind

    One of the most common questions I get from my readers is "What is the topical absorption rate of your products?" There are a number of studies demonstrating that a solvent mixture of DMSO/ethanol achieves close to 100% absorption no matter where on the skin it is applied. However, we stopped...

    Magnoil - Liquid Magnesium

    NOTE (12/16/2022): Due to occasional supply shortages of the L-pidolate salt of magnesium, some batches of Magnoil may contains magnesium sulfate instead. Adding the product to the shopping cart will show, which option is being currently offered/sold. The sulfate salt has a higher percentage...

    Higher Fat Diets And Fat Emulsification Increase Endotoxin (in Obese Males)

    High dietary fat is one of the primary factors for increased endotoxin load, especially if the fat is PUFA. This is probably one of the main reasons Peat prefers lower fat diets. However, most of the studies on the fat-endotoxin link so far have been on animal models. This new human study...

    DMSO Potentiates The Effects Of Steroids Inside The Cell

    This claims has been made many times, and is even listed on the Wikipedia page. However, I have not been able to find the actual reference to back this up even though I have been looking for a long time. Now, thanks to @Wagner83 and his link to the "Cornell Vet" book, I found that study and I am...

    Dietary Aluminum Intake

    The other day I checked the label on the salt which we use at the restaurant I work in and discovered it contained sodium aluminosilicate, an anti-caking agent.I scoured the web searching for other unexpected routes of exposure and must now conclude that virtually every processed food available...

    Enhanced Bioavailability And Tissue Effects Of Steroids Dissolved In Dmso

    As discussed in another thread related to DHEA, subcutaneous administration of steroids is considered the golden standard for bioavailability and systemic effects. That same study showed that topical application of DHEA dissolved in popylene glycol is only 33% as bioavailable as through...

    Why It Is A Good Idea To Take Olive Oil With Vitamin E And D3

    Ray Peat takes his vitamin E with olive oil. He rubs it on his wrists probably. He also applies vitamin D3 mixed in olive oil transdermally. This probably aids in the absorption of those fat-soluble vitamins. But maybe there is more to it. Most vitamin E supplements are derived from soya oil...

    Does High Calcium Intake Deplete Zinc?

    There have been a couple of posts recently along the lines that "the Peat diet" was low in zinc and that high calcium intake would deplete zinc. So I decided to check what information I could find about it. My conclusion: A diet that contains adequate animal proteins from milk, eggs, and...

    DMSO Makes Transdermal Steroid Absorption Close To 100%

    Aspirin Inhibits Tryptophan Absorption From The Intestine

    Peat has written about the benefits of tryptophan restriction for overall health and metabolism. Unfortunately, there are few reliable methods of reducing tryptophan absorption and most people have to resort to simply limiting consumption of foods high in tryptophan. It would be nice if there...

    Taurine Enhances Aspirin Absorption

    Given how similar taurine is structurally to glycine, this is not surprising but I wanted to post it anyways as an extra option for people who do not have access to glycine powder/tablets but have taurine. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7277191 "...Aspirin absorption from the stomach or...
