    The beneficial consumption was 2+ cups a day, which translates to 200mg+ of caffeine a day, assuming caffeine is the substance with responsible for most of the beneficial effects of coffee on liver. http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/PressRele ... 10553.html "...Findings indicate that those who...

    Alan Turing, WWII, And Estrogen Torture

    How many of you have heard the story of Alan Turing? I think it's one of the most important events in history, and hits on a surprising number of Ray Peat's ideas. Alan Turing was a brilliant out of the box thinker, and invented the "Universal Turing Machine" which is the concept behind all...

    Does (nor)adrenaline Always Increase Pulse?

    Do these stress hormones as a rule cause an increase in pulse? It seems like that is mentioned everywhere. I suspect I have a problem with these two being high but my pulse is always 50-60, and taking thyroid does nothing to change my pulse.

    Surrogates For Thyroid Hormone

    This post is directed at those who have issues with large doses of caffeine. For a long time caffeine caused me to have "jitters", even when taken with enough sugar. Recently I was reading on the design of the RedBull energy drink and how taurine was added to mitigate the caffeine "jitters"...

    Low Thyroid Hormones Linked To "exceptionally" Low IQ

    The study claims to have proof that this issue is caused by a faulty gene, but I think this does not reduce the value of confirming Ray's statement that thyroid activity is a direct determinant of intelligence. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-south- ... s-26706907

    Parkinson Disease Is An Energetic/metabolic Disorder

    This seems to be one of the more confirmatory studies I've seen recently and the team is already working on providing proof that compounds that fix the activity of "Complex I" (e.g. CoQ10, vitamin K2, T3) will reverse Parkinson disease. By proof I mean in vivo studies using mice...

    X Factor

    im thinking we all have an x factor, which dictates metabolism, feel good, and health in general. The x factor could be equated to 'the fire in your belly', the drive, the fire in your eyes, the motivational factor...similar to the concept of agni. To me, this factor which will dictate appetite...

    Addison's Disease And Pregnenolone

    I find it pretty shocking that there is so little information on the internet about what happens when people with Addison's disease are given pregnenolone. Addison's disease is the inability of the adrenal gland to produce some hormones. Since pregnenolone is a precursor to these hormones...

    If Burning Fat Is Bad, How Do You Lose Weight?

    I'm a newbie to Peat's ideas, but many of them make sense to me. However, if the release of fatty acids is bad for your body, how can you realistically expect to lose fat? After all, one of the main goals of any diet is to have a lean body, and if that's not possible on a Peat diet, I don't...

    Change In Taste, And Cravings

    Yesterday, I dined at a buffet place with some relatives. Prior to eating 'Peat', I really liked the food. Even in the early days of Peat, I would try dishes I used to like whenever I ate at restaurants, even though I know they use veg oils. Yesterday, though, I filled up on seafood, some sushi...

    Cancer Debate May Be Finally Over, Confirming Ray's Views Again

    This is all over the scientific forums, including sites like Reddit. The bottom line is this - after about 100 years of denial, modern science finally seems to be admitting that the Warburg Effect is a cause of cancer and not just a result/symptom/sign. The study goes on to discuss how...
