    The Protein In Fish, Not Omega-3, May Be Protective Against Brain Disease

    Over the last 2 decades thousands of studies were published on the purported benefits of omega-3 fats commonly found in cold water fish. However, every large human trial with omega-3 either failed to find benefit or even found increased risk of harm. Despite that fact, there is very strong...

    Life's First Molecule Was A Protein, Not DNA Or RNA

    I posted a few studied in the past that argued for the primal role of RNA (and not DNA) in evolution. Not The "selfish Gene"(DNA), But RNA Be The Driver Of Evolution The geneticists like to claim that DNA still rules supreme because it was the primordial molecule that started life and its...

    In Defense Of Gilbert Ling - Ion Pumps Not Needed To Explain Cell Physiology

    The purported existence of pumps is the official reason why Gilbert Ling's AI hypothesis was removed from Wikipedia. I posted a few days ago about the "newly" discovered role of ATP as a protein hydrotrope and co-solvent - something Ling postulated back in the 1950s. Gilbert Ling's Theory...

    All Steroids (not Just Unbound/free Ones) Are Bioavailable

    One of the recurring points of contention in Peat's writings that I have not seen addressed yet is his comment on total vs. free hormones and the relevance this has for common blood tests for thyroid and sex hormones. The mainstream medical claim is that only free hormones are capable of...

    Protein Quality, Not Genes, Determine Male Height

    I posted a study on the height of Dutch men - a well studied phenomenon officially explained by genes, but recently recast as one possibly due to diet. Dutch People Gained 20cm Of Height In Just 150 Years Now this new study adds more evidence to the diet hypothesis as it found a population in...

    Vitamin D3 Extends Lifespan By Preventing Toxic Protein Buildup

    Over the last 6-9 months I noticed that often people who communicate with Peat over email get a recommendation to supplement with vitamin D. When asked why, Peat said that he knows quite a few people who recovered from "very serious symptoms" by using vitamin D. Well, this new study shows that...

    Repair Of Pancreatic Beta-Cells

    Repair of Pancreatic β-Cells: A Relevant Phenomenon in EarlyIDDM Most studies dealing with the pathogenesis of IDDM have emphasized the immune assault against β-cells. In this perspective, we review the data that suggest that the β-cell destruction of IDDM depends on a balance between β-cell...

    Gelatin Can Exarcerbate A Protein Insufficiency

    Hydrolyzed collagen (gelatin) decreases food efficiency and the bioavailability of high-quality protein in rats "Gelatin and collagen hydrolysate have been shown to improve skin hydration, transepidermal water loss, elasticity, and skin barrier dysfunction 7, 8. Furthermore, they have been used...

    Inhibiting Serotonin During Protein Feeding Doubles Maximum Lifespan

    This study is actually on the effects of a high protein diet on brain neurotransmitters and lifespan. It was done in fruit flies but the serotonin in those fruit flies are essentially the same in humans. So, the results should hold. One of the big takeaways from the study is the explanation of...

    Meals Rich In Carbohydrates, But Poor In Protein May Increase Serotonin In The Brain

    Confused about serotonin OK, so from what I've gathered so far, RP is not a fan of serotonin, and believes estrogen dominance has alot to do with high serotonin and high histamine. But then as I'm reading his article I find this: "A large carbohydrate meal increases the ratio of tryptophan to...

    Why Do We Even Look At The Kcal In Protein?

    Had a new coaching client ask me today "How much energy should I be using from protein a day?" which got me thinking. The answer should be none. Protein is awesome and does a lot of really important things but it is always just a fall back as an energy source for when there is not enough...

    Well Rounded Protein Intake?

    So I haven't looked into protein in depth before so maybe someone with more knowledge can help me. If you have milk, potatoes (a few times a week) and collagen/gelatin powder (1-2 tbspn a day) - is this well rounded adequate protein intake from a peat perspective? I have a low heart rate...

    Taurine Dramatically Improves Protein Utilization From Food

    The study was on babies, which I think makes it even more relevant given that babies cannot handle protein very well similarly to sick/aging people. Babies that were breast-fed ingested about 1g/kg protein daily had normal protein utilization. This could be due both to either the fact that they...

    Casein Vs Whey Vs Milk Protein Concentrate Vs Other Proteins

    I would like to include more protein in my diet. I tend to believe that a lower methionine intake in the diet is possibly healthier than a higher methionine intake. I consume adequate amounts of glycine / proline via daily gelatin / broths / soups, and I really enjoy the convenience of protein...
