@exfatloss It’s just the PUFAs, simple as

2 weeks into ex150salmon and not only have I not reached my previous low weight, I also got a (mild) sunburn lol. Fish is a psyop? I keep discovering this..

@aliceisplaying tool calls seem totally broken right now is why

quick question why does opus 4.8 in claude code try to read the same file 10 times in a row

@t_NYC just shoulder check them hard

@whatisaging Aspirin has always immediately induced tinnitus in me unfortunately

When I take a supplement that causes me actual damage, my ears start buzzing and rumbling in minutes. Tinnitus is a sign of oxidative stress. DOES: Silica from horsetail Valerian root extract High dose choline High dose apolactoferrin DOESN'T: Boron Selenium High dose dextrose

@dantefofante Do you think this would be true of @sportdrink too?

I went 26 years with no cavities. Clean diet. Occasional soda. 1 coffee per day. Solid oral hygiene. Then I bought an AquaTrue reverse osmosis filter and started spamming LMNT to remineralize. Got into endurance sports around the same time so I was basically sipping LMNT water all day. Felt great. Workouts were solid. 6-12 months go by between dentist visits and here I find out I've got 3 cavities. No apparent changes in diet or routine. I was shocked. So I did some mental excavation. Looking back LMNT was basically the only thing that changed. Didn't know the science, didn't read the literature, just went off gut instinct because it was the only thing that I realized I changed. I just stopped drinking it all day long. Time skip. I can say with certainty that my teeth look better than they have in a long time and I forgot I even made this change before reading this post. Of course, I still don't know if this was the issue. I never will. I still drink LMNT because I like it. Makes runs good. Now I just treat it like a supplement not a water replacement. This of course means nothing, just my story with it, but maybe its worth thinking about if you're someone who lives on or frequently enjoys electrolyte powders.

@punishedfounder @theoutgoingco Im starting to think a small amount of caffeine right before bed helps sleep. Something about caffeine providing energy and sleep requiring energy or something

first time I had one of these bad boys was at 10pm because I was out of water slept like a baby despite the caffeine (???) second time was before meeting up with a girl and I yapped for hours and it tastes great gud drink @theoutgoingco

@ChestnutEmperor @blockhead4000 You mean XXY

@blockhead4000 Looks like yyx

@powderhnd @gregmushen I used Chrome tools to save .HAR files that showed each API interaction, then told Claude Code to infer the GWT API boundary iteratively, writing raw API calls in Typescript. I can possibly open source this but I’m a bit worried Cronometer wouldn’t approve of this

@DrQuateMD @gregmushen How do you do it with chronometer?

This has been my favorite way of logging food so far. Just frictionless. I just pushed a big update yesterday. So it can keep rough track of your kitchen inventory and manage shopping lists. Link in comments.

@EvolutionistJe1 @Will_of_Europa Short chain fatty acids.

@Will_of_Europa SCFAs?

So excess sodium dried my intestines out for years, beans kept transit time low and kept guts hydrated. Remove beans and guts dry up. Remove excess sodium and guts no longer dry up. High amounts of PUFAs in cell membranes can't be replaced unless there is sufficient SCFAs to take their place. So fibermaxxing was indeed an incorrect modality.

@shunyaekam @BreatheLesss They literally don’t know what T3 is

@BreatheLesss i had to explain to my doctor how t4 is converted into t3 and gave up

It is fascinating that even the average person intuitively understands that they'll either have to completely accept the cookie cutter prescription of their doctor or they'll have to do some social engineer to get the attention any complex issue deserves. "Oh yes yes my uncle is a doctor and he said xyz could be interesting to try for this"

@blockhead4000 You can just ask for no sauce and it’ll be healthier than 90% of the other gooble gubble garbage you can get at any other takeout place.

Every burger place puts gloopy gup-gup sneed sauce bullshit all over their food now its disgusting

@exfatloss Another few months/years, and you might even be able to try CICO again. (I recently discovered that I *can* CICO, despite genuinely not believing in it as a concept. I think my metabolism just works rather well.)

Best refeed in a long time. I'm on day 3 and I still get pretty long-lasting satiety from swampy & sugary foods like home made cookies, croissant burgers, chocolate, beef sticks, or pasta. Previously, I'd get massive hyperphagia by day 2 at the latest. Not sure if it's the extra ACV, the fact I ate salmon for 5 days prior, or I'm just slowly coming in at a reasonable linoleic acid % in my body fat. I strongly suspect this is what a healthy metabolism always works like.

@lowmegatron I used to get hangnails constantly. When I quit seed oils last year, they disappeared and never came back. They recur if I have too many cheat meals in a row, then disappear again.

@learnmyhelpless @fire_bottle Is it as serotonergic as banana? As radioactive?

I’m trying this out. Insane macros. 0g fat, 3g protein, the rest is mostly starch. No heavy metals like in cassava or slow motility from glass noodles (which can be desirable for some)

@exfatloss Salmon is back? Right before summer? Don’t get burned!

Just about the best evidence for settling points in fat loss. Ad-lib heavy cream intake. If you believe in "muh cAroliEs" after seeing this, I don't know what to tell you.

my most unpopular opinions is that lightbulbs should explode when they go out, like just shoot glass shrapnel everywhere

Dear Flight Attendants, No eggnog? Just say so. NO NEED FOR THAT LOOK
