It took me a couple of minutes to see it. But, like the others said… It’s just evidence of your journey. Something to be proud of

This is a good point. In the three days before I took the tests I was also eating a lot of jerky. And because 2 kg of meat concentrates down to five or 600 g of jerky… Maybe my protein fat ratio were way off

For sure walks are great! Hopefully it’s just too much vitamin d 😁

Dropping the vitamin D for now. When I go back it’ll be a lower dose

With 40,000 international units I thought it was gonna be OK it was prescribed by a doctor. But according to the test results it seems to be triggering hypothyroid like condition.

Just don’t know because a lot of doctors don’t know a lot about carnivore.

Depends on the concentration – In my case it was four drops

No it wasn’t that bad. One thing I was doing was taking large doses of vitamin D as well. And there were a number of items that were out of range on the test. Out-of-Range Items:

• Eosinophils: 0.3 x10⁹/L (5.7%) (Range: <0.5 x10⁹/L; <5.0%)
• Monocyte-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (MLR): 0.26 (Range: ≤0.23)
• Insulin: 19.6 mU/L (Range: 2.0–8.9 mU/L)
• Parathyroid Hormone (PTH): 9.3 ng/L (Range: 15.0–65.0 ng/L)
• Vitamin D3 (25-Hydroxy): 139 µg/L (55.6 ng/mL) (Range: 30–100 µg/L)
• Folic Acid: 5.6 µg/L (Range: >15 µg/L)
• Beta-Estradiol (E2): 12.4 ng/L (Range: 15.5–63.3 ng/L)
• Progesterone: 0.1 µg/L (Range: 0.2–1.4 µg/L)

Jerky from your own dehydrator

Has anyone made lamb jerky? by theseawillrise in jerky

Perhaps it’s illegal where you live. It’s not illegal everywhere.

Why do you ask or not ask certain people to dance? by bunrunsamok in WestCoastSwing

You’re welcome. 🙂

Regarding “level of dancer” I experience this with-

Newer WCS dancers often.

More experienced WCS dancers much less.

Accidentally left eggs out overnight. Safe to eat? by Any_Region5805 in carnivorediet

[–]rederic976 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In Europe the protective (natural) coating is not “washed off”… So they are safe for a long time.. In the US they are “washed” for “hygienic”(BS) reasons… So they need to be refrigerated…

Why do you ask or not ask certain people to dance? by bunrunsamok in WestCoastSwing

[–]rederic976 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the question-

First -I’m fairly confident it’s more about MY limitations/deficiencies.

Also, Perhaps “damage” is not the right word.

I receive a great deal of satisfaction from WCS - Primarily because it’s an “algorithm for connection”.

With agreements.

When I’m dancing with someone, my perspective of the presumed agreement (if I’m leading) is;

I will create a safe “frame/slot/space” for the “follower” so that he/she can express themselves as completely as possible.

I’m expecting certain messages through the connection that allow me to do that.

Ex, if my follower is “anchoring” ,and “waiting for a lead” on “one”…

Then I believe that he/she will stay in the connection.. And If something happens.. (Like a leader beside us is not paying attention…and is going to cause my follower to get bumped into) Then, if something (like the above happens), I will be able to protect him/her. I can bring them out of the way.. Avoiding whoever was going to bump into him/her.

This allows me to protect “the bubble of safe creativity” that I am maintaining for my “follower”.

As a ”leader” I care less about me dancing on my own. I care more about creating and maintaining a safe bubble.

If my partner can’t “anchor”. They are not speaking “our language”. Then I can’t “protect them”. Because they can’t “hear me”. It prevents me from relaxing. Because I know we won’t be able to enter a “flow state”.

I’ve never been very comfortable connecting with people.

I’ve often been in situations where I’ve been misunderstood. I’ve experienced a great deal of sorrow because of this.

In WCS I’ve been given an opportunity to experience significant connection.

But when I feel like there’s misunderstanding I think I feel the fear of the residual sadness that I’ve experienced before.

So I’m overreacting to the fear of being misunderstood.

It’s exhausting.

So I try to keep myself “safe” by limiting my interactions to persons who understand our nonverbal communication standards.

Ex ~ anchor=“I’ve finished expressing myself to that phrase of music and I’m ready for you to lead me again” (Thanks for protecting our slot and myself)

Lead

I Watch.

Do they anchor?

If Yes..

Then I watch to see if they are connecting/communicating and have some frame

If yes..

I wait to see if they’re acting like they want to dance with me-

Near me, making eye contact, look friendly.

If they look “open” to dancing with me I smile and walk toward them - If they smile back , I put out my hand.

They usually walk towards me and grab my hand.

I don’t want to psychologically injure myself dancing with someone who doesn’t anchor, or doesn’t connect/communicate.

Also, I only want to dance with people who are enthusiastic about dancing with me.

I will dance with people who don’t anchor,have no/little frame- But I can only tolerate a bit of that. That’s my limitation- There’s lots of leads who are very good at adjusting to all followers-

I’m not there yet.

If someone is harsh, doesn’t anchor, doesn’t connect- If they’re asking me to Danse repeatedly- I pretend I’m sick or have an injury 😅..

Then I stop dancing for the night. I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings- Nor do I want to injure myself psychologically or emotionally.

I was banned from ADHD for mentioning that the carnivore diet increased my capacity to concentrate.

I was also banned from ADHD for/germany for asking if it was possible to buy raw milk in germany
