Over the last year I've fixed a ton of health issues by Dr. Peat's work that I've been having: eczema, chronic coughing, insomnia, low temperatures, hair loss, arthritis, erectile dysfunction, among others.
I seem to be stuck 40 lbs overweight though I eat a strictly Peat friendly diet based on Dairy and Fruit (I was fat before Peat), with occasional cuts of meat and/or stocks.
My lab results were all OK or great except for high triglycerides and an enlarged thyroid. I am on thyroid meds and my temperatures always at 98.4 in the morning and get to 99 or more for most of the day even if I forget to take thyroid, and I have a raging libido. I am never cold. I am never hungry, and my calories each day are between 2800 and 3400 (I am also 6 foot 6 and 34 years old, so I have a higher calorie requirement than smaller people).
I have tried the recommended ways to lose weight. Specifically I cut calories for three weeks but that didn't work, and then did a very low fat (less than 4g a day) for 30 days, and tried it again on two other occasions for two weeks, and I didn't lose any weight at all and it made me feel really, really lousy. Eating moderate fat (butter and coconut oil) keeps me feeling better and temps and pulse higher, and I don't have to eat as many calories, but I still don't lose any weight. Moderate activity doesn't help either and increasing various supplements like niacinamide or cascara doesn't help, nor did increasing fruit intake where I tried to eat a ton more fruit to rev up my metabolism. I take K2, B1, Niacinamide, liver, Vit. E., copper, and pregnenolone (for the last month). I have a suspicion that it has something to do with my high triglycerides, and Peat says that isn't harmful as long as they're saturated, but I can't help but think there's a connection there and I don't know how to fix it.
