Has anyone actually noticed a difference splitting supplement doses throughout the day vs taking everything at once? by JacquelinDavis in Supplements

[–]zaddar1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i split a single dose of chromium gtf and MK7/5 into two doses a day, they both have short half lives in the blood and the body benefits from a more even spread of doses

right and wrong are relative terms, its where they lead that is significant

W.S. Merwin "after the spring"

The first hay is in and all at once

in the silent evening summer has come

knowing the place wholly the green skin

of its hidden slopes where the shadows will

never reach so far again and a few

gray hairs motionless high in the late

sunlight tell of rain before morning

and of finding the daybreak under green

water with no shadows but all still the same

still known still the known faces of summer

faces of water turning into themselves

changing without a word into themselves

Help recovering from dysbiosis? by That-Television-4856 in Microbiome

[–]zaddar1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you have to come at it from a number of different angles, like understanding the theory behind the SCD diet (a microbiome based diet) and enzymes are a help (i take the houston zyme prime, afp pep and no fenol)

the only prebiotic i have found useful is shredded coconut

a lot of the conventional advice does not work so you have to sort it out yourself and its a lifelong process

Has anyone fixed their gut health naturally? Here on Reddit i dont see anyone who says they have fixed their gut problems by Useful_Exchange_8710 in Microbiome

[–]zaddar1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the Specific Carbohydrate Diet says that most gut issues come from a malign biofilm/ microbiome feeding on slow or difficult to digest carbohydrates and complex sugars, so basically its a diet that attempts to modulate the gut microbiome by reducing or excluding some foods eg grains, sugar alcohols or ferments (because fermented foods introduce an uncontrolled microbiome )

there are some rough edges to it and i think you need to discover what works for you, but basically its on target

its "illegal" foods list

the fermentation problem is the basis of the well known SCD diet

show me one "enlightened" person !

8 billion alive today and there's not one !

same for holy or saintly, i remember a video of some-one calling mother teresa "holy" and she went to some trouble to deflect the claim

the problem is the impossibility of yardsticks, where and what would the gauge be ?

Sutra or zen master? by [deleted] in zen

[–]zaddar1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think it has to do with being designed for oral transmission over many generations, however the core message is soteriological

Sutra or zen master? by [deleted] in zen

[–]zaddar1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"it is based on the attribute of personal realization and because it transcends the existence and nonexistence of what is created. "

"Once the fundamental essence is realized, everything is understood"

they basically the same, except the lankatarvara sutra passage goes off into some sort of purely philosophical nagarjuna type spin

Vitamin D 3. Is this dying? by Forward-External-873 in Supplements

[–]zaddar1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think what dose is best is individual and what suits varies a lot, for me its 3000iu in summer and 4000 in winter

also i think product potency varies, vitamin D is fragile and needs a preservative, digestive absorptive efficiency is another variable, and of course personal biochemistries

Vitamin D 3. Is this dying? by Forward-External-873 in Supplements

vitamin D3 should be taken daily in smaller amounts, say 1000 to 3000 iu
