    It's DATE Season! The Sky Is Ripe With Sugar Clouds!

    One of the positives that came out of my 8 years of struggling to adhere to fruitarianism/80-10-10 eating (which did quite a number on my thyroid function, hormones and ultimately my entire experience of reality) was discovering the wonders of truly fresh, ripe dates! Khadrawy, medjool, black...

    Eating rice cakes/crackers

    Is it OK to eat rice, rice cakes or rice crackers occasionally on a Peat diet? Just because I crave to eat something solid and dry. :)

    Where to get proper salt in Italy/Austria/Germany?

    Well I just stopped eating the unrefined sea salt because I saw heavy metal analyis (and also realized the mafia used the Mediterenean sea for radioactive waste disposal), lead is rearly under 500 ppb, ususaly 1 ppm to 2ppm. In regular store I could not find refined salt withoud sodium...

    Raw sugarcane juice... pretty healthy!

    Hey! I found this: http://www.processedfreeamerica.org/ind ... :raw-sugar Maybe I should start growing my own little sagarcane field and get all those nutrients when chewing or drinking the sweet, refreshing juices from it :)

    Fructose sweetener?

    What is the verdict on fructose (Not HFCS) used as an ingredient? I have seen some collagen hydrolyzate that has fructose in it.

    Trouble Eating Eggs

    I had taken a walk and was hungry. Before the walk, I'd eaten hard candies. When I got in, I ate an ounce of cheese and 2.5 egg yolks (scrambled with some milk in coconut oil). Salted. I used just the yolks because someone mentioned the whites might be problematic (since I get sick on eggs...

    Where can I get gelatin in Spain?

    Where can I get gelatin in Spain? So far I have only seen the small packets of sheets in the supermarkets.

    Coca Cola

    Luckily I got over my bad habit of needing them. I don't think I will go back but I have a question anyway, in case the situation comes up where I might have one. Does it have to be made in Mexico? I understand about the regular sugar ones being better than the ones with aspartame, but I seem...

    Resistant starch in potatoes

    Someone without a forum account sent me this study to share. In short, boiled potatoes that were then cooled at 5°C (a reasonable fridge temperature) for 24 hours had significantly higher levels of resistant starch: http://jn.nutrition.org/content/128/3/651.long

    How to improve dairy tolerance?

    I've always been a big dairy fan, but obviously since going Peat (three months ago) I've really stepped it up. However, I have a lot of digestive issues and it's become pretty apparent that dairy does my bloating no favours... Right now I'm so bloated that it's hard to breathe :| I keep...

    Frying food in coconut oil.

    So I just took two plain corn tortillas ( El Milagro FTW -- corn, lime, water are the ingredients) and dunked them in sizzling coconut oil, and dusted them with salt. Ohhhhhh...bliss. People, you have got to try this, they're unbelievable. Melted an ounce of queso fresco on top for pure...

    Eating too much salt?

    Hi, I've been Peating in the last two months and I increased my salt intake drastically. Currently, I'm eating 1 tsp of coarse salt 3 times a day before meals. I just take the coarse salt into my mouth and swallow it with some water. I'm doing this because of edema due to estrogen dominance...

    RDA

    Hello, I was wondering, do you all just go by the RDA for your minerals/vitamins, etc requirements? I have a hard time believing that it could be accurate when everything else we've been taught is so wrong but I haven't read anything from Peat about it exactly either..........

    Cooking eggs

    Hello everyone, I'm new to peat's diet and this forum has been very helpful. After reading Peat's article about cholesterol and the dangers of oxidized cholesterol I wondered about the importance of the cooking methods. I have found this article: http://www.kjm.keio.ac.jp/past/53/3/131.pdf...

    Paneer

    If you've never made this it just occurred to me it is not only easy but very Peat. All you do is boil milk, add lemon, wait for it to curdle, drain and press it. You can add salt or sugar, dust it in potato starch and fry it, eat it with honey, etc. Paneer is milk without the whey...

    Eating Liver

    Y'all I just can't. I know I need it because I'm sure I need the Vitamin A and I'm also somewhat sure I don't have any in me at the moment.But I can't eat it; I wouldn't even know where to *find* beef liver in this town. I've checked a couple meat counters and only run across chicken livers...

    Has Ray Peat Improved On The Paleo Diet?

    The RP diet clearly could not have been eaten by a hunter gatherer, but is it possible it's an improvement on our ancestral diet (whatever that is anyway)? As an example, it's believed by some that cooking is what allowed homo species to acquire more nutrients with less effort and evolve into us...
