    Glucurodination of FFA: Is There a Preference for Unsaturation?

    I started to think about this after watching the last few podcasts of @haidut 's in which he mentions a healthy metabolism as an alternative to fasting to lose weight; I began to ponder about ways in which more evidence could be found in favor of the negative effects of excessive PUFA...

    Free fatty acid suppression by Copper Nicotinate and Salicylates

    According to Ray’s work, lowering free fatty acids seems to be an essential factor in promoting proper health and regeneration, so I thought I’d post a few studies I found. Copper Nicotinate...

    Lipolysis preferentially releases PUFA from adipose tissue

    ...compared to SFA and/or MUFA. This topic is considered highly controversial in Peat-land, mostly because of the dearth of studies dealing with it. I must have received hundreds of emails at this point criticizing Peat's stance on this issue and claiming that there is no evidence for...

    I feel so lost - hair loss as a 26 year old (w/ pictures)

    I have been experiencing immense hair loss since May of this year. Both a receding hairline and intense shedding when I run my fingers through my hair. I have implemented everything under the sun from oysters, aspirin, oxtail, raw liver, methyl blue, cutting training, increasing protein, to...

    When should I eat my fat,

    I have heard information about the negative effects of free fatty acids and also mixing carbs and fats causing insulin resistance via the randle cycle. My fat intake is 76 grams and my carb intake 450 grams. I normally have a big breakfast consisting of carbs fat and protein altogether with...

    Inhibition Of Sperm Motility And Agglutination Of Sperm Cells By Free Fatty Acids In Whole Semen

    Interesting....... "The effects of a serial dilution of linoleic acid on human spermatozoa in whole semen was tested on 21 semen samples obtained from 11 normal volunteers. The minimal concentration of linoleic acid required to stop the movement of at least 75% of the moving sperm ranged from 1...

    Inflammation Mediates Free Fatty Acid-induced Insulin Resistance

    JNK and tumor necrosis factor-alpha mediate free fatty acid-induced insulin resistance in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. - PubMed - NCBI Lipid infusion and high fat feeding are established causes of systemic and adipose tissue insulin resistance. In this study, we treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes with a mixture...

    LOW SALT DIET

    A low salt diet increases the free fatty acids, leading to insulin resistance, increasing free fatty acids in the blood, and contributing to atherosclerosis (Prada, et al., 2000; Mrnka, et al., 2000; Catanozi, et al., 2003; Garg, et al., 2011) Atherosclerosis is a disease in which plaque...

    Is Insulin Resistance A Result Of Impaired Beta Oxidation Or Excessive Beta Oxidation?

    Peat's obviously a big believer that healthy glucose metabolism should be favored over beta oxidation, and that many factors, including PUFA, excessive lypolysis, serotonin, estrogen, cortisol, lactate, and inflammation all steer the body away from oxidative metabolism, leading to even more...

    The Influence Of Free Fatty Acids On The Free Fraction Of Thyroid Hormones In Serum As Estimated By

    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3661050 Thyroid hormones are displaced from their binding proteins in serum during nonthyroidal somatic illness, and FFA have been claimed to contribute. It seems mandatory to evaluate this effect using techniques for the measurements of serum free thyroid...

    Free fatty acids (FFA) as the cause of insulin resistance

    Peat has said this many times, but I think it is nice to see some independent "verification" of that statement, especially given how often it is questioned here on the forum by some. These two studies by the same scientist seem to imply that chronic suppression of free fatty acid elevation...

    Vitamin B3 Blocks FFA Elevation Caused By Caffeine

    Even though it is a logical finding knowing how niacinamide works, I still wanted to post this since it is one of the few studies looking at the combined effects of Peat substances like niacinamide and caffeine. I guess for simplicity you can assume that taking as much niacinamide as caffeine...
