FireInABottle

The new series at Fire In A Bottle has begun!! This is my attempt at tying together the threads. PUFA, oxygen, the Cambrian explosion, antioxidants. Copepods. Starting in my back yard. fireinabottle.net/the-whistle-pi…

@TuckerGoodrich @sudas1891 @Leo_Abstract @exfatloss @KetoCarnivore @MeTheAngryCat @603_4me @siobhan_huggins This is actually the idea. Torpor = increased D6D and SCD1. PUFA goes down and MUFA goes up. I don’t see how this connects to oxidative risk. Body temp drops to near freezing, oxygen levels are controlled/low. Not much oxidative risk.

@sudas1891 @Leo_Abstract @exfatloss @KetoCarnivore @MeTheAngryCat @603_4me @siobhan_huggins @fire_bottle His idea about torpor is wrong, unfortunately. Mammals that live in tropical areas that hibernate actually lower PUFA, as you would expect from the oxidative risk. Including the one primate.

@TuckerGoodrich @Leo_Abstract @exfatloss @MeTheAngryCat @siobhan_huggins How about you state your hypothesis before we find out?

This seems as good a place as any to plug Usredoxlabs.com

@exfatloss @kattakastali @dPeeri @siobhan_huggins @trikomes It’ll be very niche until it’s not.

@fire_bottle @kattakastali @dPeeri @siobhan_huggins @trikomes If I just mail you food items and you send me a bunch of numbers and I publish those numbers, hardly your fault is it? Similar to me publishing my OmegaQuant results.

Lady eats sardines with "olive oil" (🤣), halves ketones

@exfatloss @kattakastali @dPeeri @siobhan_huggins @trikomes Yeah. I think that’s right.

@fire_bottle @kattakastali @dPeeri @siobhan_huggins @trikomes Soon! Can't wait haha. Can we just make a public DB of test results for random commercial products, or is that somehow legally risky?

@exfatloss @kattakastali @dPeeri @siobhan_huggins @trikomes I’m probably 2-3 months out. Coming soon.

@kattakastali @dPeeri @siobhan_huggins @trikomes interesting. Seems these people are basically claiming that the 2010 UC Davis study on olive oil is fraudulent and sponsored by Californian olive oil producers. We need an independent lab to test these things. Why is that so hard? @fire_bottle

Amazing!! The next generation.

@RealOilRspctr @SeedOilDsrspctr Congratulations!!!

Celebrating 19 years married today ❤️

@HandyGingerGal @Corbienest It’s not a dude. But it’s very dark. Where does the negativity come from? Her or him? It’s unclear.

@Corbienest I think that's a dude

I try to be as unpleasant and difficult to converse with as possible rather than enjoying the company of the man I agreed to go to dinner with 🥴

@KetoCarnivore @caloriesproper2 Not that I’m trying to suggest that CICO is important or real. I actually don’t think it’s relevant. I believe that resistance to electron flow determines everything.

Ballsy, I guess. I'm sure clinical experience does bring home what works and what doesn't in the practical world. MDs may have more exposure to falsification of theories. But it's not a full protection. One of his talks that I've seen goes through a set of head-smacking ways his patients have misunderstood how to do a low carb diet, unwittingly sabotaging themselves. This probably contributes to (or reflects) a belief that a large part of the problem is compliance and people "not doing it right". And it's a real problem, no doubt. But by the same token, knowing that can and does happen masks data that might reveal important exceptions to preferred theories. The guys who insist that caloric restriction must lead to fat loss will always interpret failures as lying or miscalculation and therefore cannot ever have their ideas falsified.

I've seen Eric Westman talk a few times He says, unsarcastically, that PhD scientists are incapable of studying obesity and that should be left to "real" doctors like himself (MDs) He says this at diabetes conferences where the majority of attendees are PhD obesity researchers

@KetoCarnivore @caloriesproper2 I doubt that clinical experience really brings home the issues. Like: clinician told me to eat this meal plan. I got super hungry and binged on ice cream. Did I report the binge to the clinician?

Whoah!! Bobcat caught on camera mid-day in the open. This is my family’s place, my nephew installed these cams. Pretty cool, we caught a bobcat in the open in the daylight with what appears to be a squirrel in mouth. This is North Country, New York.

@exfatloss I’d be curious what you thought of this Brad guys schema for modeling what happened in the lab. How we represent what happened and how we assign meaning while still keeping it simple.

@fire_bottle Weird it says brad in the name

I think you’re on to something here, Ash! It’s time that food testing left the world of corporate customers and became more accessible to consumers. Both from a convenience and cost standpoint but also from a “how to interpret this data” standpoint.

@exfatloss I mean, some guy named Brad is interested in lab software and redox. It’s got nothing to do with me. Obvs.

@exfatloss There are a lot of Brads.

@exfatloss It seemed like you were suggesting that if we could find some lab space…. 🤔 😉

@fire_bottle We are?

@exfatloss If people who actually know how to program things and are interested in the state of reproducible science (nightmare), here is an interesting project one could check out (IDK who this US Redox Labs is, it just looks like an interesting project): github.com/brad-usredoxla…

@fire_bottle If only we knew someone with a lab

@MickOKeeffe The white people moved to the suburbs.

Truly astonishing figures, this should be big warning for Europe. US in 1950 vs now. New York - 90% white, now 30% LA - 94% white, now 37% Detroit - 84% white, now 10% Chicago - 86% white, now 29% Philadelphia - 80% white, now 36% Baltimore - 76% white, now 27%
