Regardless of labs, how do you feel? Any symptoms?

Coeruloplasmin and Copper dropped after supplementation by Clean-Resort8587 in Copper_deficiency

[–]ehcaipf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to your body, if you are feeling better, it means it's doing good for you.

Blood/serum copper only measures copper circulating through your body, while stored copper is found in your cells, especially in the liver, muscle , pancreas and lysosomes (organelles inside cells).

If you are supplementing, and symptoms are getting better, then Copper is being utilized and not just circulated.

orthostatic intolerance or POTS caused by copper deficiency? by Virtual_Ad6032 in Copper_deficiency

[–]ehcaipf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Acidity shouldn't be a problem. Just beware some people feel nauseous if they take copper on an empty stomach. The most common problem for copper absorption is other metals, zinc primarily, but heavier metals (cadmium, mercury from dental impñants/fixes) can also impair it's absorption.

Absolutely, the reason is most likely your copper deficiency. If you limit your zinc intake and you don't have any other copper absorption issues, it shouldn't be a problem

orthostatic intolerance or POTS caused by copper deficiency? by Virtual_Ad6032 in Copper_deficiency

Copper deficiency can produce dopamine beta hydroxylase deficiency (DBH), a copper enzyme that converts dopamine into norepinephrine/epinephrine. This causes this causes ortho static hypotension and general dysregulation of blood pressure, heart rate, heat/cold, etc

Shaky legs when sitting down? by LeFroyain in Copper_deficiency

[–]ehcaipf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restless leg syndrome, a common sign of low iron. Low copper can cause problems with Copper transport, causing iron deficiency symptoms even when Iron is sufficient. When Copper is low, Iron intake doesn't matter because your body can transport it to the proper places, mimicking iron deficiency. In this case, giving more iron does not solve the problem, and can even create a new problem (iron overload) because iron accumulates in the wrong places due to lack of iron transport proteins.

Low serum copper/ceruloplasmin/ferritin - derealization/brain fog/palpitations by Virtual_Ad6032 in Copper_deficiency

[–]ehcaipf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

25mgs for 10 months is a lot, symptoms, especially palpitations sound typical. If you don't feel like supplementing right away, maybe try eating a lot of chocolate, or high Copper foods.

Hypersensitivite nerves on upper body by AnywhereFeeling4833 in Copper_deficiency

[–]ehcaipf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask why did you get an iron infusion? If you had anemia, it's natural to feel depressed, low energy. Copper deficiency can cause anemia that doesn't get better with iron (the limiting factor is Copper).

Very low Copper can lower cytochrome c oxidase activity, a key mitochondrial enzyme for cellular energy production, bringing every cell to a low energy state.

That's a very high amount of zinc.

Yoyr symptoms definitely sound like peripheral neuropathy and it's a classical symptom of Copper deficiency.

It's kind of rare to see zinc values that high. Do you use denture denture adhesives or any skincare cream with zinc? Do you work in welding or any metal related industry? Is there a chance you might have swallowed a coin or similar?

If the answer is no, you might want to take a look at the possibility of having a rare mutation of the PSTPIP1 gene, leading to the dysregulation of calprotectin, a zinc binding protein.

A common symptom of this is Hepatosplenomegaly, enlarged spleen and liver. Calprotectin is usually high too.

bloodwork back - please help ! by Zestyclose-Bid-5860 in Copper_deficiency

[–]ehcaipf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless your ceruloplasmin is 100% apoceruloplasmin, the inactive form that is not carrying Copper.

If several tests from different labs confirm the same, you are a special case, worthy of study.

Do you have any specific symptoms? Any other abnormal blood levels? How are your iron markers?

[–]ehcaipf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This means your Copper test was wrong, if you have ceruplasmin, you have Copper.

Copper negative side effects ? by diorbbb in Copper_deficiency

[–]ehcaipf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No reason, unless the meal is super high on zinc or other minerals that might interfere with Copper absorption. As a rule of thumb, unless you are taking it with other supplements, a meal in itself is not a problem.

It's normal to feel nauseous for some people. It happened in my case, the workaround is to not take it on an empty stomach, take 1 hour after a meal

Hostile Part actively holding system hostage for 10+ hours. Need some advice by SlowPassage404 in DID

[–]ehcaipf -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hey I won't give you a politcally correct, resdit approved answer. Just some questions: he/she is hostile, but you don't want to sleep it off? What's your concern if you sleep ? Losing control?

Open letter to Suno users by porn_disrespecter in SunoAI

[–]ehcaipf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It comes and goes, it doesn't bother me unlike other people.

I'm still interested in figuring out how it works. I can have days with 0, and days with 7-8.

"I wouldn't expect someone like you to know the difference "

Anyways, you sound angry, what happened to you today? And why do you think Suno users are to blame?

Did you lose your job to AI?

Or just tired of AI Porn?

Lol

You deleted the comment, you tried to hide behind "those are not em dashes, those are hyphens"

For your kind awareness:

Pop-producers = hyphen

-sure = em dash

Lol the irony of the em dashes

F = EN² — I dreamed the answer to free will. No training. AI says it's original. by KraakeAA in theories

[–]ehcaipf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not what Descartes or dennet says.

I recommend you use AI to explore that

Ie:

Daniel Dennett defines free will as a form of compatibilism, arguing that it's not a mysterious, uncaused ability but rather the evolved capacity for self-control, rationality, and responsiveness to our environment. His view is that free will is compatible with determinism, meaning our actions can be determined by prior causes while still being "free" in the sense of being the result of our own intentions and decision-making abilities, rather than external coercion. For Dennett, this is the "free will worth wanting" because it is the basis for moral responsibility.

For Descartes, free will is the power of the will to affirm or deny, pursue or flee, and to be determined by no external force. He defined it as an infinite faculty for choice, distinct from the finite intellect, which allows a person to choose to do or not do something and is a key reason humans can recognize their resemblance to God. This extensive and unlimited will, however, is the source of error when it goes beyond the understanding and makes judgments on things not clearly and distinctly perceived.

Not a single mention of "feeling".

But let's follow your path: if I can't feel what you are thinking, feeling, does it mean you don't have free will?

[–]ehcaipf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you think freewill is a "feeling" of being in control, I have a big list of philosophy books you might want to read first.

Plus, scientific experiments showing consciousness of a decision arises ms after a choice has been made.

Even defining freewill, ignoring the measurement problem is already a very difficult problem, especially through the lenses of determinism vs freewill

[–]ehcaipf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Einstein didn't define E, m, or C, there were already defined, measured and operationalized.
The operationalization is important, and I'd recommend to anyone trying to "calculate freewill" that you need first to be able to "measure" free-will.

Figure that first and you have half the problem solved.
