How much does muscle matter for energy expenditure and fat loss

Nice article. I never heard much of this topic and it's very insteresting. So how to optimize your hormones and neurotransmitters ? That is what "peating" is suppose to do I guess.

Thanks man. Yeah exactly. Proper calories and macros, hitting your micros, calcium to phosphorus, gelatin, no gut irritation, lots of carbs, etc,

mate I was getting 5k IU vitamin A from diet only like whole milk liver. 10k IU d3 from supplements of cholecalciferol. im literally getting significantly more energy, appetite, from stopping the D3 entirely. it seems supplemental D will deplete A even if you get a good amount A. if its dietary A, it doesnt seem to work the same as supplemental.

literally everything mentioned here seems to be correct, in that thread and article. ill have to go a few months without D3 to really confirm for sure. but it is crazy. im wondering how much of the issues people are having here are due to fat soluble supplements. there was a time when D3 helped me, and that was when I had been using a daily multi for several years with 5000IU A and only 400IU D3, then when I added 5k IU D3 i got benefits. but now, when the 5k IU of A is entirely diet based, D3 doesnt work the same. I could do a lower dose D3, but considering the changes that have occurred in just a few days, I think i'd rather just not have D entirely for some time.
