- 00:02:35 - How does Ray Peat spend most of the day? Mostly reading and some painting.
- 00:04:40 - Relationship of sickness etc. with fear, emotional stress etc? A sick or extremely old person will often lose control of their emotions. A fairly moderate emotional shock can linger for a long time (PTSD etc.) in an unhealthy state.
- 00:06:20 - Connection with the lungs? The brain is an extreme example of what's going on in every kind of cell. The lung surface cells secrete mucus and various smaller molecules, irritation intensifies that activity and energy helps to bring it back to its resting state.
- 00:09:05 - When you show symptoms, is the body actually healing rather than being sick? A strong and healthy organism can heal a slight wound without inflammation and without leaving a scar.
- 00:11:10 - Talk about "cases" and "positive test". How does this test even work? Even the CDC didn't know what they were testing, because they were mixing up [PCR test and antibody test].
- 00:12:40 - Can the tests even distinguish between different viruses? To a certain extent, but it's often a false positive. Other pieces of RNA can be amplified and the PCR tests are measuring the presence of a certain kind of RNA. Somewhere between 35-80% of people test positive but have no symptoms at all, so what does a positive test even mean? A positive test usually is meaningless. Corona viruses change so quickly and there are so many of them, that you don't know for sure what the test was standardized on.
- 00:18:25 - Is there any evidence that this new corona virus is different or stronger or unique? Very little evidence. Some studies on people in California and cruise ships showed that it's very similar to the standard flu. The death rate is in the range of the annual flu virus.
- 00:19:30 - Could the PCR tests react to something in the body like exosomes? The DNA is full of stuff that looks like RNA viruses. It's possible that stored in this immense amount of DNA, there are some overlapping bits of RNA. Under stress we put out exosomes. They are in the same size range and structural composition than this type of virus. Under stress they are repair particles that help to repair injured cells. The stress that turns the exosomes on, happens to be the stress that the viruses use to activate their own synthesis and secretion
- 00:23:00 - So is it possible that people under stress (lockdowns etc.) produce exosomes that could show up as virus load? Any stress can increase exosome production. But very few people study the exosome system. It was denied as contrary to the basic dogma of genetics and molecular biology (dogma: information goes only from DNA to RNA to protein). Especially as it relates to immunity, because it opens up the area of doubt for the antibody-vaccine theory for example. It would melt away into nothing.
- 00:25:45 - Circulating viruses can't exists except in a higher organism and originate from a higher organism. Under stress organism create exosomes, some of them get emitted into the environment and they spread information between organisms. But the genetic dogma makes people resistant to looking into this sharing of information between organisms.
- 00:30:00 - Do we always feel symptoms when we share exosomes? No, not at all. A sick, stressed, unhappy, malnourished population is going to have trouble adapting.
- 00:32:00 - Is the mortality rate of this virus more severe than other? The figures show that it's a pretty normal year when you look at mortality. In [the fall of 2019] there was great drop in mortality according to CDC data. In the first week of April there was suddenly this spike in excess mortality that accounted for the drop before that date.
- 00:35:10 - Who is running the show here? WHO? CDC? Both of them; they are tightly integrated with the pharmaceutical industry. And not only with them. [In the fall of 2019] the Fed put out $6 trillion into the economy and there was a big wave of resignations of CEO's of the biggest companies, before anyone talked about a virus. So they had inside news. Bill Gates was one of the motivators in creating a "play" in how they would respond to a corona virus pandemic it.
- 00:38:30 - 00:45:00 - commercials etc.
- 00:45:15 - When Peat was getting his PhD in 1972, did he have an idea on were to go with all of this? In 1970 he sketched out about five ideas, that he thought would be the standard by the 1990s. The supporting evidence has been very heavy in that direction. But the power of the pharmaceutical industry is so great, that despite all the developments, they were able to stigmatize any evidence that contradicted their dogmas. For example, journals recommended to treat Covid patients with nitric oxide. Inflammation anywhere (especially in the lungs) creates nitric oxide, nitric oxide creates inflammation and tissue damage. At the same time they are denying good treatments.
- 00:51:00 - What is the basic difference in Peat's view in how the body works and the mainstream view? For example, the cell is structured all the way down to the atomic level, water is organized in the healthy living state. The disorganization of the cell, starting with the water, can be measured. You can see the effects of aging, stress or estrogen excess as changes in the water structure. Cell energy exists in the form of structure
- 00:52:30 - 5G and other electromagnetic fields disrupt the structure of water in the body? Russian scientists studied this effect and even in 1968 there were a lot of studies on electromagnetic fields and water structure, that were unavailable and unknown in US science.
- 00:57:50 - If the basic structure is denied by science, will we never get to the truth of the effects of emf? Part of that denial is to say that everything that happens inside the cell, is like actions that would happen in a test tube, and that it's the membrane that acts like the test tube. They think that something that happens to a (dead) cell in a test tube explains what happens in the cell inside the body. The denial to study dangers of emf applies to every part of the medical pharmaceutical industries. They are all denying the meaning of structure in the cell.
- 01:00:00 - How did Dr. Peat get onto this so early? He would listen to politicians and thought that they were lying all the time. It made him suspicious, especially when politics and medicine get connected. He asked some famous biochemists whether they shouldn't study biochemistry inside cells rather than in a test tube, and they just laughed and ridiculed him.
- 01:01:35 - Is it necessary to cycle progesterone if you use it topically and is it the same for males? For topical effects, like a sprain or burn, you don't have to cycle it.
- 01:03:20 - What to do to make the thyroid function more normally (already using medication)? Conversion [from T4 to T3] needs glucose and selenium. Women have a weaker conversion because of higher estrogen levels. A few doses of progesterone can help the liver and shift the balance, which will also stabilize blood sugar.
- 01:05:10 - What to take for cold sores and what causes them? Almost always a herpes virus. Systemic stress (pituitary activation) is behind the nerve. Energy dips, gets the nerve excited, and the excitation of the nerve gives the virus the chance to reproduce and get to the skin. Keep thyroid hormone up, so that blood sugar is stable. Topical aspirin (with alcohol) can help to minimize the outbreak.
- 01:07:25 - Vitamin D during a pandemic? It overlaps with progesterone in its cell-protective, stabilizing actions. It improves immunity against viruses. Along with progesterone it's considered one of the neurosteroids, for brain-protective effects.
- 01:08:45 - What could cause a sudden drop in blood pressure for a minute or two? Digestive issues can be behind it. A surge of toxins from the intestine, for example. Low thyroid people are more likely to experience that.
- 01:10:30 - What’s the physiological dosage of T4 (still has hypothyroid symptoms)? T4 isn't the active thyroid hormone, it's a precursor. It's more often in women, but the conversion can be bad in men, too. Prolonged stress hormones will cause a conversion to Reverse T3 rather than T3. Better use a combination of T4 and T3.
- 01:15:30 - Leg cramps at night? Possibly dehydration. The pH of the blood changes if you're suddenly dehydrated. Milk is a good bed time snack, because it lowers stress hormones.
- 01:16:35 - Is there a natural soap without PUFA? Soaps based on coconut and olive oil. PUFAs make the soap go rancid quickly.
- 01:17:20 - Is coconut oil good to consume in general? If it's well refined. Some people are very allergic to coconut. If it has a coconut odor, you have to look out for allergy symptoms. It helps to counter the toxic effect of PUFAs
- 01:18:40 - What's the physiologic role of nor-epinephrine and nor-adrenaline? They are the same thing. The Nor- is the type that nerves, other than adrenal glands, form.
- 01:19:30 - 50-year old woman, slightly overweight, menopausal. Wakes up every night at 3 AM and has trouble getting back tom sleep. Any thoughts? It's OK to just wake up and have a snack. When the liver gets inefficient from PUFAs, estrogen, hypothyroidism etc., it becomes less efficient in storing glycogen for the night.
- 01:20:15 - How to get rid of varicose veins? Progesterone lotion? It can help. Getting the ratio of estrogen/progesterone in favor of progesterone is important. Veins are just a symptom of an imbalance.
- 01:21:45 - A snack with butter and maple syrup is putting the listener back to sleep. What is this telling him? The maple syrup comes with good minerals (potassium), that helps the sugar to work. The sugar is kept in the stomach and intestine longer when there is butter with it.
- 01:22:45 - Natural foods and supplements for hair regrowth in male pattern baldness? It requires changing your whole health. Hair loss tends to coincide with circulatory problems. Get Vitamin D, thyroid, progesterone and DHEA up. Cortisol, aldosterone and PTH are very destructive to hair follicle, blood vessels and heart. Lower those stress-related hormones (including prolactin).
- 01:24:30 - What is behind graying of hair? The melanin in the brain is deficient in Parkinson's disease. And excess of iron competes against copper, and copper is the enzyme that makes the dark pigment. Too much iron disturbs that process. If you put a copper penny in a bottle with water, aspirin and a little vinegar, you can make a copper solution. If you put that on white hair, you can reverse the color. You can eat more oysters as a strong source of copper.
- 01:30:50 - Are those who had a lot of vaccines in the past hopeless of ever recovering to good health? It makes it more urgent, that these people start to do things right and start to question recommendations of the medical industry.
- 01:32:40 - Does Peat believe that homosexuals are born that way? If a pregnant woman is subjected to extreme stress, that causes extreme changes, including sexual preference. Everything that happens to the pregnant mother is shaping the whole system of mental functions, emotions, physical shape, rate of metabolism etc. of the unborn child.
- 01:34:25 - How does Peat feel about abortion? It's better to control your conception. But sometimes there's no system for properly sustaining the pregnancy in a healthy way. It's never a good thing in any sense, but it's a proper thing if you can avoid worse things.
- 01:35:15 - When does the soul come into the body? It's there before the body. There a continuity of soul.
- 01:35:40 - What's the advice you would give someone, maybe 50 years younger? Stay alert is the main thing. Times are going to get worse.
- 01:36:45 - Sauerkraut juice for internal scarring? It tastes nice. The salt can be a protective, relaxing factor.
- 01:37:25 - How to get rid of (stomach) ulcers? Stress predisposes the stomach to poor immunity. A properly working digestive system is sterile. It depends on good nutrition and good thyroid function.
- 01:38:25 - Is it true that we have less stomach acid as we age? Stress hormones increase and energy hormones decrease with age. Thyroid becomes less effective. All of the energizing, anti-inflammatory things offset the aging process.
- 01:41:10 - Is it possible that a safe and effective vaccine for Covid-19 could be available in the future? No. Has there ever been a safe and effective vaccine? The whole process of safety-testing is fraudulent. They don't use placebos in the control group and compare toxins to toxins.
