Ejaculation Pro-Metabolic, NoFap Retention Unnatural

[RenaissanceMan]

Anyone else notice how they get an urge to eat immediately after blowing a huge load on a girl

Usually crave steak, chicken, rice or dark chocolate and whole milk

I believe orgasm increases metabolic requirements, hence the elevated appetite

Semen retention and NoFap pursuits are unnatural mechanisms of dealing with a hypothyroid state that cannot handle the energetic demands of orgasm

Monks pursue abstinence by manipulating the energetic consequences of their diet

They avoid red meat, dairy, etc. for a reason

This is also probably why they shave their heads from the jump, as their subpar nutrition would eventually cause hair loss

100% agreed.
Just craved marmelade with milk after sex with a girl,that's when food tastes better too.

Increasing metabolic requirements does not equate to being pro-metabolic.

NoFap is definitely very Anti-Peat, viewing the signals your body is telling you as some demonic traps trying to lead you astray, instead of them being corrective instructions guiding you towards wholeness.

All I know is too much ejaculating gives me pain in penis , makes my frequent urination worse, if I'm ejaculating everyday then everytime I do something there is just no sensation so it's just not pleasurable anymore and it makes my hard flaccid worse and makes my flaccid penis shrink up more .

You made a post a few weeks ago about how semen retention was the ultimate metabolic tool....

Ironically in Eastern Europe the monks live by the opposite rule, do Not cut your hair, do Not cut your beard, do Not shave mainly.
Or just take a look a Greek priests, which are not monks, but heavy beards are common.

I would assume your are talking about Buddhist monks which shave their heads and beards.
Considering how far from real world experience many are here I think that should be specified.

It raises energetic requirements for sure. But it is not a metabolic booster.
I always crave juice and fruits after sex, or a piece of cheese or dark chocolate.

The problem isn't too much ejaculation, the problem is internet porn.

Rastafarians and Native Americans, among others, consider hair very important. The bible tells a story about Samson having his power in his hair/locks. Many people think Jesus had/has long hair/locks and a beard. The rationale being that hairs are an extension of the nervous system and important antennas to cosmic rays, making us more energetic and aware of subtle energies in our surroundings etc. I tend to think hairs are to us something like what leaves are to trees.
Cutting my hair, any hair in the body definitely makes me feel more mentally weak, less confident, less calm and collected.

I think NoFappers are right about one thing: it's very bad to throw the powerful seed of life away. But if you do NoFap you're body eventually gets rid of it anyway, wet dreams etc.

This. Nofap is benefical to those who masturbates and edges (Edging is even worse) to porn. It is either nonbenefical oR harmful to those who do 2-3 times porn free, edging free masturbation.

I would argue that there is a difference between lust and what you are used to. Most of your "urges" are nothing more than routine pleasures. Similar to playing games

I would assume there’s also a vicious cycle situation here where unhealthy people are the ones having to resort to porn because indicators of poor health such as poor weight/skin/hair are preventing them from attracting a mate. And it becomes a downward spiral where the body handles the orgasm poorly, causing worse health, further diminishing romantic prospects and increasing their dependence on internet porn. While the healthy people never get into that in the first place and only reap benefits from sex and connection.

Agreed. I have experienced this vicious cycle myself.

How to cure the nose stuffiness, mucus drip in throat, red/dry eyes, brain fog, fatigue, nightmares I always have for 2-3 days after ejaculating?

When I had a cold it went away so it seems orgasms activate some dormant autoimmune Histamine mast cell issues in me thus I need to abstain to stay functional

But outside of the post orgasmic illness syndrome ejaculations have pro-appetite/relaxation/calmness effect you mentioned and when I abstain too long my erectins are less hard/veiny although the internal thickness increases

Also after an ejaculation if I get erect again my penis feels sort of stretch-ily calcified as if the skin is pulling tighter around the muscle and when I had no POIS symptoms when ejaculating during the cold I DID NOT have that feeling AND I felt MORE PLEASURE in MIDDLE DEEPER AREA OF PENIS as if something had unclogged

My TSH has always been 2.1-3.0 and I had those white flakes on scalp as a child, my mom says my doctor said its from some allergies-as a kid I would get rashes and liquid greenish poop from milk, nowadays it just bloats me and makes my tummy expanded in a bad way but not as bad as in childhood

I tried tons of supplements - all Peaty stuff except T3, DHEA, Pregnenolone, Cyproheptadine so maybe some of those might work

My cortisol is elevated too and I believe stress hormones increase my heart rate by 20-30 as when I take Ashwagandha it goes down from 100 to like 80

Idk what to do with all of this info but I know there is some imbalance causing my POIS

If orgasming after taking Niacin flush the cognitive symptoms seem to not appear and muscle stiffness too and Ashwagandha stops POIS induced muscle tightness too

But only a cold was ever able to turn OFF ALL POIS SYMPTOMS

I have been trying to cure it for 2 years now - have tried like 30 supplements, been eating Peaty, low PUFA, nothing ever made any impact on my POIS symptoms

What about being above average looking in many stats but having mental/internal blockages giving shyness/social anxiety/social cue reading issues/etc. due to Asperger's and such?

After Ejaculation I also crave a lot of food - usually a big cup of salted orange juice

With that being said - I am not sure if I view frequent ejaculation as a good thing - I feel the need to rest and "Recover" after this event - my theory is it is taxing on the body (maybe like the energy spent on conflict or energy spent chasing women, etc.) and that requirements are demanded to replace nutrients that are spent on this process

I find it more difficult to stay motivated and get stuff done and don't have the energy to chase women than when I haven't ejaculated for some time - I just feel like staying at home and eating to "recover" - I think this is a good discussion to have but just based on "feel" I don't think frequently ejaculating is a good thing on the body - I think it is worth spending it on women, but find it pointless spending it on masturbation - I view it as maybe the equivalent of wasting energy fighting with a crackhead or street bum - there is nothing to gain from it except wasting away more energy that could be spent on a more valuable process

Can you take a look at the message I sent you

Exactly. OP READ THIS and make sure you understand what is being said.
