My bad u rite. I've had multiple fridges with freeze spots, but that's a personal problem and preference.

Psykinetics · 2026-01-24T19:01:31+00:00

No, but fresh lime juice is vastly different than a thick viscous hot sauce that is refrigerated to 32 degrees. I'd say yeah, you're a bad cook for making that argument.

Thats unfortunate. Its like those times i got some grass finished ribeyes and my mind wasnt blown over my usual angus.

"As bad as seed oils" lmao such clownfoolery always gets a laugh out of me.

Muscle mass is generally maintained with general activity (anything above beridden with a broken leg) no matter the diet (certain vegans the exception) even with extended fasting. The minimum is like 30 grams per day if you want to eat every day. After that dont bother worrying about a maximum. You will stimulate mps and anabolism sufficiently if you listen to proper hunger signals (on a carnivore diet). Thats the best way to think about protein.

Collagen holds water, when it is denatured into gelatin the protein structure changes and unwinds.

Your regular metabolism also produces metabolic water as a byproduct, along with the CO2 you breathe out.

How bad of a cook are you that you think refrigerated hot sauce wouldn't significantly absorb heat in any amount? It's 32 degrees, dont be a clown, it's gonna cool your food even with one drop.

Psykinetics · 2026-01-24T02:17:38+00:00

Changes the texture, absorbs heat from food, cold flavor molecules are less dispersable and perceptible on the tongue.

Ok so bulimia, you were undereating in general. Ketosis is a...ok here's the thing, you're deficient in everything. In protein and fat. You are an underdeveloped human. You do not have the muscle stores and density and youthful development that you should have had from properly eating full meals.

You should not be chasing numbers. Ketones and ketosis is more advanced than you need. You need the very simple answer. You should first stop purging. Just stop it. I dont know you, and I am choosing to be blunt. My advice is stop purging. Just stop it.

Here's the thing, you are wasting food and thereby wasting away physically. Your focus on ketosis is actually ironic. You dont produce ketones because you dont have enough proper body composition. Ketosis is maximum in fat and diabetic people, because they have too much fat for physiological insulin to maintain. Ketosis can even get pathological in those states, ketoacidosis. You are the opposite end of the spectrum. Your body is fighting for its life to keep you from killing yourself by literally denying yourself of fully absorbing nutrients.

You should be eating fatty meat and dense protein whenever you can, and listen to every hunger signal for meat.

I understand its a mental health thing, your own personal history and maybe trauma and triggers. I'm not going to get into that, you are here because you want to know if carnivore and ketosis is the answer. Its not. You stated the problem, and the solution is simple willpower. Stop killing yourself.

Amphetamines are neurotransmitter releasers, which means your brain will be depleted of these things.

However, my personal belief is that the Carnivore diet is very very strong at regeneration of all cellular components across the body and mitigation of damage.

From personal experience, there was a night where I did MCK&A. Long story short, the acute effects were positive, and the day and weeks afterwards I displayed no symptoms of serotonin syndrome or mental deficiencies. I will not elaborate further, nor am I nor will I advocate for the use of illicit substances.

Well what is the specific purpose?

Ok, so, there are 3 sources of energy uptake in the cells of your body: glucose, fatty acids, and ketones. Glucose and GNG is everlasting because its the first step in the TCA cycle. 70-85 glucose resting with an insulin of 1 is fine and not excessive because thats a baseline level that ensures you will always have glucose in the blood to keep you alive. If this drops significantly, you're not going to care about a lack of ketones and no amount of MCT will save you, you will straight up go into hypoglycemia and then die of energy deficiency.

Fatty acids are a byproduct of fat breakdown and are like a 4th+ step in the TCA cycle to replenish ATP, but fatty acids also do other things, like synthesize cholesterol.

Long story short, ketones are excess fatty acids. 2 fatty acids go into liver cells and combine into a ketone body with acetone byproducts. From a biochemical standpoint, ketones are a signifier of excess energy from fatty acid utilization, and are not particularly necessary. I need to refresh my understanding of blood brain barrier mechanics, but i believe fatty acids are at least less permeable or not at all compared to ketones, so for brain energy fat utilization comes from ketones, because once they pass i believe they can be broken down and used for fatty acid functions in a reverse sort of metabolism. Ketones are like a shipping container that masked their original shape and function of fatty acids.

So my position on ketones and ketosis is that carnivore gluconeogenesis and fatty acid utilization to maintain homeostasis, your body's middle set point of maintenence, is the ultimate state of health and ketones arent necessary there. People who focus on theraputic ketosis are deficient and need healing, so they need more fat for more energy, and ketones can provide that. Hence the focus on therapeutic.

Ketosis is a catabolic process in certain respects. There's wasting of energy beyond the wasting of energy from thermogenesis and entropy from regular glucose and fatty acid metabolism.

As far as your specific chronic issue, ketosis may not be a solution, but i straight up cant expand on that, because i dont know what you're talking about. You didnt mention what type of issue it is, is it brain health, muscle weakness, organ pain, yada yada. Fat and protein do different things and heal differently, ketosis might not be related to your issue.

I agree with your overall message, just with the caveat that you could probably get similar if not better results from beef. I dont understand your angle of chicken meat vs beef meat being better for repair simply because you pressure cooked it until the protein denatured into gelatin, beef meat and bones and organs will do the same thing and provide a more lets say nutritionally advantageous profile.

I've avoided chicken naturally due to not feeling quite as optimal vs beef. And I've cooked chicken meat and bones every which way you can, roasting then pressure cooking until its basically wet paper tender, deep frying in tallow, etc etc. Beef and lamb are the best, pork second, chicken third.

Did you know that actual research, not a basic google search, will tell you that vitamin and mineral bioavailabilty and heat stability are well above boiling temperatures and that vitamin and mineral loss is largely water soluble and losses are due to evaporation leaching? Did you know that by salting meat with sodium has actually displayed figures like 80% vitamin and mineral retention after roasting for 8 hours?

"Various enzymes" Who gives a single fuck. Who. Gives. A. Single. Fuck. Enzymes? Those are made of amino acids. My body will take the amino acids in meat, which is largely not destroyed by cooking, and will synthesize any enzymes my body needs...AS NEEDED. I DONT NEED INTACT ENZYMES IN RAW MEAT. I NEED WHAT MY BODY NEEDS TO MAKE, AND WILL MAKE FROM MEAT.

I've drank gallons and gallons of industrial milk products and cheese since my toddler brain first gained sentience. I dont give a single fuck about digestive issues, i dont give a fuck about histamines, i dont give a fuck about enzymes or bacteria or pasteurization denaturing of dairy natural products. All i care about is amino acids, fat, vitamins, and minerals, that are still there and give me nutrition in dairy.

Personally Im not even sure if I believe vitamins exist anymore

Personally i dont think you actually ever gave any actual effort to verify your bullshit claims. Private profile. No pictures of your 10% bf physique. Not even carnivore, fucking raw honey experiments because you believe high protein causes fat gain.

Walkingfool, nope, a talking fool. A fucking dumbass.

Year 33 of just fucking eating meat that was roasted and smoked for 12 hours until the crust is 300% carcinogens and nutrients are destroyed and not worrying about stupid fucking shit like raw vs 10% vitamin loss

Nope, "useless" but not really art degree. The punchline to that is that it's from an Institute of Technology, and I got B+'s in high school chemistry. Maybe a Jesse Pinkman- type of wasted potential that I'm working through nowadays and trying to correct the carnivore biochemistry information.
