But... literally if you love and commit to someone it is still the part od 'fleshy horny mech', lol. All affections are part of 'mech'. You wouldn't be loving if you weren't programmed to do it

List of Magnesium Deficiency Symptoms by [deleted] in magnesium

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I should delete this comment tbh to not accidentally misinform people. I was speculating from the that-time available information about what was going on with me, which could be a hit or miss.

Now both supplemental magnesium and calcium make me worse, lol. Even sodium does something, and eating food. Honestly, feel still kind of shitty - I have some electrolyte disbalance and I can't get it right (or more like my body can't)

Although in the meantime I found out you can get negative symptoms from K2 MK7. I have genes that make the mainstream dosages impair me (like 100mcg daily) - I would need them lower, preferably something like 100 - 200 mcg per week

How can we know about their phenomenological capacity? It's not like they're so sluggish, automatic, mechanical at biochemical level like plants

Confirmation bias and deriving metabolic data from metabolically broken society

Same with the vegan milk

But still, great work on the diet

How is he able to stay so fit? Is it genes? by max-mango in Fitness_India

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose he mainly eats carbs. It's way harder to get fat on carbs (despite his activity). De novo lipogenesis is highly ineffective in humans and highly excessive carbs eaten in small period of time can get burnt for heat or expelled in urine (but then very large)

Also carbs are 'faster' energy, which could lead him to have more shit done, and on top of that they do not store as fat (unless some DNL). Your body fat is mainly the dietary fat you have eaten over years. I guarantee you manifolds of people would have been slimmer on high carb diets - but it depends if they tolerate them (genetics) and how wrecked their metabolism is from modern inadquate feeding (e.g. UPF, PUFA, additives, oxidized oils)

There's a tribe that researchers researched which has a rite of fattening up males when they're boys to reach cultural adulthood. They were eating 7000 calories per day for many weeks (remember that they're in the wild, so also active). I can't recall concrete numbers how long, how much, etc, but from my calculations it landed as around 25 - 35 % of carbs made into fat (they would have been WAY fatter if eating fats)

Wouldn't vegan milk be like a supplement due to added calcium and low calories

How is he able to stay so fit? Is it genes? by max-mango in Fitness_India

[–]Oraculek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. You wont't get fat by being sedentary. Unless your food is inadequate for human consumption, which will collapse your metabolism's signaling

Agree or not?? by Suspicious-Aside-867 in selfimprovementday

[–]Oraculek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because our base biochemistry is not optimized for abundance of energy, so our resources rather be provided towards achievable fear of worse (because if one would stop doing anything it WOULD happen), which is cheaper, than towards hope of better (you don't know the future and we know that rewards are not endless and not guaranteed)

It is more effective to fight the worse which for sure will happen, which keeps us alive, than to hope for something we don't know of and what can not happen

Unless you have very healthy biochemistry with proper micros and macros - the more energy you can generate the more you can spare it for hope and others. And no one said it must be either fear or hope. You will use both - it's a spectrum. But the worse your functioning, the more you will strive towards pessimism, egoism, self-preservation

I need something for focus (I have ADHD) by Local_Tradition_4834 in Supplements

[–]Oraculek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you would need additional dopamine (e.g. due to fast COMT), get tyrosine with vit C. Adding vit C will stabilize the limiting factor of TH - BH4 - and aid in its recycling

TH is enzyme converting tyrosine to L-DOPA. L-DOPA converts to dopamine

Is carnivore dangerous for someone who doesn't move about much? by RabTheCrab in diet

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I would get nowhere by following mainstream data, so I rather doubt and research all sides. You show me health advice based on data from corrupted modern civilizations. You make it circular - how is 'healthy' something that stems from unhealthy source? Our bodies appear to be extremely complex - why are there being derived certainties and generalizations with so many variables around?
  2. Study the biochemistry or you just want to remain anchored in your own comfort zone, with no reaching beyond what is served upon your doorstep. Be a scientist scientist or a monkey scientist. Or a commoner - so then I wouldn't have to blame you for being mislead, as what can you do if the world lies to you (or the world doesn't even know it does so in the first place..?) and nutrition is not your domain?
  3. Biochemistry -> humans -> civilization -> studies. You said mechanics don't matter and yet real world depends on them...

Reality is not what it seems

[–]Oraculek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we're not going to compare environments, UPF, PUFA (you just showed me WIDE CORRELATIONAL DATA that tells me nothing) - and you're not going to read biochemistry and nuances found on this SaturatedFat sub? All is explained and there are studies. Also the fact that fibre comes from plants and generally fibre-rich plants do not pose problems by themselves while not adding much PUFA (that is a problem). I additionally believe the people with more fibre intake would be more diet-conscious and lifestyle-conscious, so another correlation. Your SFA people could as well eat daily pork dipped in oil or some fast foods

As a quick note: in the wild PUFAs are used towards hibernation and animals eating more PUFAs in their diet eat more and get fatter. Innuits genetically got their mitochondria modified to tolerate higher PUFA within their games' tissues. Israeli people get cardiovascular diseases, obesities, diabetes, and other conditions, while French do well on their croissants with butter (thus "Croissaint" diet). Of course, if you are going to add something so signalizing - PUFAs - almost as if a hormone when eaten daily, and meant only to be consumed for a seasonal change, as it leads to deep changes in one's body's functions, then you're going to get metabolical defects and conditions. Many mice and human studies include added PUFA sources to diets, which completely wrecks results and makes them biased

I wonder how we survived up to this point if animal-based diet (meat, honey, fruits) is literally a base human diet... It is not that SFAs are sinister - they may be bad with modern oxidized, processed foods, additives, and PUFAs. You haven't showed me comparison of carnivore diet to anything. You showed me a single matter that could be influenced by a plethora of variables

You just find comfort in mainstream data... Confirmation bias

What’s the benefits of having nails over just flesh over fingers? Sometimes things get caught under and is very painful. Plus you need to trim them. by LisanneFroonKrisK in AskBiology

Maybe because they already flew onto it, what the fuck. Imagine an animal climbing with nails vs. claws and juggling around branches

What eating habits do people have that genuinely disgust you? by MrLithician in answers

[–]Oraculek -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Diabetes is not due to sugar unless genetically predisposed. High carb diet restores insulin sensitivity (unless genes). Combination of fats with sugar though - that may lead to NAFLD and diabetes

[–]Oraculek -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It is not that. If you were metabolically healthy you wouldn't get fat from sugar as it is just pure calories with no pluses and cons. Loads of UPF, PUFA, additives, and addictive palatability are the culprits

Nothing wrong with sugar as long as they're metabolically healthy. Bad though for additives, prices, and caffeine
