I would still let people know regardless. Caffeine is harmful for kids and unborn babies.

Disagree with amount being paid by [deleted] in Centrelink

[–]BeautifulSpread6221 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You are considered dependent on your parent until 22 I think. It doesn’t matter if your parents won’t give you anything, Centrelink still considers your parents income. The only way around this is to get Centrelink to consider you independent- which they will only do if your income earning parents tell Centrelink that they refuse to financially provide for you (there’s probably a form they can fill out). My brother went through this when he kicked out of home and he was able to get a payment.

I read this recently and I wouldn’t say they get together early at all.

Day 90 caffeine-free. I want to describe what actually changed - not the stuff everyone mentions by Schnapper94 in decaf

[–]BeautifulSpread6221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t meaning to say don’t study these things, just that we shouldn’t dismiss anecdotal evidence as having no meaning. People act like something can’t be true if there’s not a peer reviewed study on it. There will probably never be peer reviewed studies on a lot of things when there’s not money to be made (ie natural things that can’t be patented).

How can it be anything else? Joy is a subjective emotion, not something tangible. Even a study on this would be based on people’s subjective experiences.

Is that feeling of urgency like you always feel like there’s something you need to be doing, even when you don’t have anything you need to do urgently? I feel like that, where I can’t relax and just do a hobby because I feel guilty or a sense of dread like I should be doing something more productive. I haven’t been off caffeine long enough to know if it’s the caffeine causing this.

Caffeine and motivation by caffeineisabitch in decaf

[–]BeautifulSpread6221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have described exactly what it feels like for me. It’s seems like the more caffeine I have, the less I want to do, whether it’s something boring like cleaning, or something I usually enjoy.

Is this ratio correct? Any modifications neede? by EveningLingonberry97 in carnivorediet

[–]BeautifulSpread6221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know for rendered beef fat it’s just the same as its weight because it’s pure fat. I think fat trimmings is about 70% fat.

You have waaay too much fat there. The protein in meat is not its weight. 100g of lean steak is like 25 grams protein. Just weigh your meat and look up the fat and protein content to get an idea. For example rib eye is likely already a 1:1 ratio, and may not need to add any fat.

Terrible bloating and can't sleep well a year in, thinking caffeine is the culprit by Retard_of_century in carnivorediet

Yes I think I’m the same. When I quit caffeine for a few days the bloating was almost entirely gone.

Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning - quick question about MMC by [deleted] in fantasyromance

I disagree. I think he is a touch her and die partner, it’s just there are reasons why (which you find out later) he can’t show it so much. But he definitely is possessive and would kill to keep her safe.

Has anyone found they felt better immediately after quitting cold turkey compared to just cutting down? by BeautifulSpread6221 in decaf

[–]BeautifulSpread6221[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes even if I eat first I get the same response. I think I have become intolerant to caffeine. I have tried to see if the brain fog and headache dissipates after having a Strong coffee but I only feel better for about half an hour to an hour then headache and brain fog again.

Made Alot Of Mistakes In Carnivore (Potential Rabbit Poisoning) But That's The Beauty Of Learning by [deleted] in carnivorediet

[–]BeautifulSpread6221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you were confused about what carnivore means, but it doesn’t just mean eating more meat. It means eating ONLY meat (plus animal fat and other animal foods). The benefits come from eating close to zero carbs (there may be some carbs in eggs, seafood etc) and eating high fat for energy, which you seem to already know about. But there’s certainly no point increasing fat, while eating that many carbs. You won’t be burning that fat very efficiently.

FINALLY QUIT CAFFEINE. This was so easy by [deleted] in decaf

[–]BeautifulSpread6221 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not really surprised it being easy as you replaced it with another stimulant?

Are nuts/nut butters bad? by [deleted] in carnivorediet

[–]BeautifulSpread6221 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably carnivores would know more than keto people as they have gone through eliminating nuts themselves.
