Many people may already know this, but I just want to clarify this for anyone who still assumes he only drinks 1 or 2 quarts of OJ with white sugar and doesn't eat "high carb".
I was playing around with this cool search tool Ray Peat Search made by @rijo , and I found an interview with Peat...
Just came across this article about some precautions we should all be taking when drinking OJ. I think many people have noticed problems with their teeth when peating so hopefully some will find this helpful.

2: drink orange juice always with a drinking straw to...
I had a Thiamine deficiency. A simple supplement gave me back my ability to break down alcohol without intense facial flushing and feeling like I have the flu. It's phenomenal.
My question is, since high-carb dies increase the need for Thiamine, would drinking orange juice cause a thiamine...
One cause of OJ intolerance may be the fiber dissolved in it. If you cant get a hold of OJ without pulp, its worth trying to remove the pulp.
Just add some bicarb and/or club soda to the OJ until you get a layer of foam on top. Much of the pulp should be floating on top of the liquid, you can...
For most of the people who have been eating this way for a long time....have your blood sugar levels or insulin gone up? Were they low/normal to begin with?
On low carb both of these were low/normal for me and now have gone up. Does this settle down eventually? How long?
What to do with OJ from unripe sour oranges? Just bought some freshly squeezed unpasteurised OJ treated with high pressure instead of pasteurisation (whatever that means), however it tastes sour it's giving me sore tongue. :( Is it to be thrown out or can it be improved somehow, perhaps by...
I've known to try and avoid pectin for a while now, but I never knew the actual amount of pectin in different things and what specifically to avoid. If this wikipedia entry is trustworthy, then it is not the sweet parts we need to watch out for,
"Typical levels of pectin in plants are (fresh...
We all know that orange juice is beneficial on many levels, fructose, naringenin etc. Being the ever diligent Peatarian, I only drink fresh squeezed, strained OJ because it is far superior to store bought, not from concentrate juice like Tropicana or Simply Orange. The downside of the latter...
I dont get what the big deal is about pulp free OJ?
I buy both pulp free and pulp OJ. Personally I think pulp OJ tastes way better. I would have thought it contains more nutrients too?
I'm thinking about how a Ray Peat diet covers the RDA guidelines.
Of course, Ray Peat and people here may not agree with all those RDA guidelines, but I think that for 80% they are pretty accurate. I made this for myself, but I share it, because maybe other people find it interesting as well...
I was wondering if it is okay to eat oranges instead of drinking OJ. I don't like the taste or how processed it is. And is coconut water a good alternative?
When chatting with Dr. Ray Peat and trying to find some relief from my chronic inflammation he asked me about my diet. So I gave it to him and he saw that I was eating plantains, OJ, and watermelon. This was his response, also take note of what he bolded in the studies he attached...
