So I came across this video for “milk soup”, a recipe from an 18th century doctor who specialized in weight loss.
The milk soup itself is interesting. It’s like a “healthy” version of Cinnamon Toast Crunch made with high quality ingredients. And this was considered a weight loss food...
Hey I started a new log with dnp instead of aspirin. Aspirin helps you lose water weight and tolerate a caloric deficit better.
But it doesn't work like dnp. My source is under dosed but the dnp numbers I put up will be as if it wasn't. So when I take 500 mg it's 250 mg. Undosed to hell I know...
This principle applies to me involuntarily and because I try to be very in tune with my body, it's more of an instinct than an actual decision.
When I try to calorically restrict my body determines what calories are sufficient and it will drive me next to insane to ignore it.
Same with food...
Very interesting study on Sodium Butyrate and weight loss/inflammation.
The researchers fed mice a high fat diet(HFD) and gave some of them Sodium butyrate (I think it was 5% of the diet) as a supplement.
Not only did the butyrate +HFD-mice weigh less (~20%) than the HFD-mice, they weighed...
For instance, If one had started to lose weight, would estrogen stored in fat release estrogen into the system and one would have symptoms of high estrogen, such as hot flashes?
After reading more of Ray's articles I was thinking maybe this new thyroid med (compounded, extended release) is...
Hi everyone! Wondering if some of you may be able to shed some light on a pattern I seem to go through. I’ve struggled with weight my whole life, but particularly after having kids. The only time I was really thin was when I was running 3-5kms a day. After discovering peat a while ago I’ve...
I have been taking 5 aspirins in the morning and 2 aspirins every 2 hours with vitamin C 1 gram for 5 days so far.
I went from 228 to 223. Lost a pound a day.
I'm on a 500-1000 calorie deficit to accomplish this.
It's like dnp but with less side effects and it's lighter then caffeine is on...
Hey people,
Had surgeries recently, therefore will have to stay passive for some time.
Do you have tips on how to preserve muscle mass during a period of about 2-3 weeks of no exercise, where I can't even do calisthenic exercises, such as lunges, squats, push-ups & etc?
The only thing I can...

I’ve been familiar with Ray Peat for awhile but my mental health has been very bad since the beginning of 2020 up until now. I eat all the “peat” foods, followed by binge eating junk filled with pufa, and alcohol consumption to escape. Im cutting out alcohol and processed foods. I’m finally...

Hey there all,
Names Harry - First-time thread-er but long time reader...god I enjoy this stuff and would have been posting much much earlier were it not for my two mad kiddies! - little spare time to put it mildly!
Anyway - for now - I have been doing a lot of reading lately on Tryptophan and...
Just ran across this TEDx vid on YouTube. It started out sounding like it could be a very Peat-like explanation to fat loss. However, the final take was “move more, eat less and breath”. Are there nuggets to take away from this? He says the #1 question he gets is “can we just sit around and...
I’ve seen a lot of talk here about using refined table sugar and pop to help increase sugar intake. Not only does this advice go against repeated long term human RCTs, but it just doesn’t make sense when there are much better options such as fruit, fruit juice, and honey.
Adding sucrose to the...
I wanted to share this amazing gut protocol that I have been on for the last few months (results below)
I am in a unique position as a type 1 diabetic in that my pancreas produces little to no insulin on its own. This gives me an insight into what supplements and herbs do to insulin needs in...
So, I know many people have been looking for more stories and understandings of weight loss through these ideas. I’ll share mine and take it for what’s worth.
6 years ago I was doing the following:
Paleo
Fasting
High Lactic Acid Weight Lifting
Consumed under 2000 calories a day
Extremely low...
I've said that I am against fast weight loss, and I am.
So I wanted to update you.
I was at 170 for a long time, a US size 32 or 34 waist, then in my middle age creeped up a bit. I was following low carb most of that time
Then I started a Peat-inspired diet. By then I was more at 190, and I...
I am sure by now everybody has heard of the much-heralded approach of the so-called "personalized medicine" - a world in which every person will be treated uniquely based on the complete analysis of their genome/DNA. From specific drugs and dosage, to interventions like radiation, diet and...
