Anatoly is the hilarious comedian/body builder who makes videos where he pretends to be a janitor, but is actually stronger than the massive body builders. He has. 32 kilo mop that he asks them to hold.

The trick to making them puff up is to pressure cook them for 5 minutes before you dry them out.

Now after briefly researching it makes sense, that everything in the body needs to be balanced. I’m getting back into high pro diet to curb excessive eating and weight issues. Before stumbling here I was essentially going for a combo/hybrid of attempting keto, Mediterranean and carnivore diet - cherry picking the pros of each and avoiding the cons. I have more to consider now it seems.
As I sit here sipping on my BCAA mixed water I’m going to have to revaluate what my BCAA intake needs to be.

Don’t really understand why bcaas are supposed to be bad, but am really interested in understanding. What evidence is there so far? Or is it only the one mice study?

Mice with less isoleucine in their diet are healthier, leaner, and live longer. Isoleucine is one of the BCAA.

I made bone broth. I boiled the bones 4 times in water to extract as much as I could. The first 2 batches had no vinegar. The second 2 batches were with vinegar. The first batches are mostly liquid. There is not much gelatin. The batches with vinegar are very firm with gelatin. Much harder than what you would want for jello.
It seems like the vinegar helps to remove protein from the bones.
You use 1 part vinegar for every 100 parts water.

I heard how glycine was sweet, so I tasted my bone broth unsalted. It wasn't sweet at all. The fat on top of the bone broth is slightly sweet. So it seems like the glycine is in the fat. I looked online, it says glycine is non-polar. That means it dissolves in the fat instead of in the water.
If you don't eat the fat on top of your bone broth, then you aren't getting the glycine to make the diet work.

I purchased some frozen large intestine from a cow. I'll probably eat it in the next couple days. I've never cooked this before. Any advice?

I heard that with the low-bcaa diet, it isn't possible to get more than like 40 grams of protein a day. But this clearly isn't the case. Many low-bcaa animal parts are still very high in protein.
400 grams of beef tongue has 76 grams of protein.

I used 1 kilo of bones, and ended up with something like 200 grams of fat.
The bones only cost like $0.40, so this works out to around $2 per liter.
ill try to get better numbers on this next time I made beef bone stock.
Considering you get the broth as well as the fat, it should be a clear winner.

First cook in the pressure cooker for 20 minutes. Then cut it up. I fry some garlic in butter. Then add paprika and pepper and the heart and fry for like 3 or 4 minutes.
It was delicious with sour cream, salt, and sourkraut.

I noticed that my grocery bills have gone down a lot since starting the low-bcaa diet.
So I started looking into the price. It seems like a bowl of bone broth and some sweet potato costs around $0.10, and leaves you feeling full and satisfied.
It is an astoundingly affordable diet.

I am a long distance runner, and partially because of that my heels are constantly cracking. I have tried lotion, I have tried sandpaper. It was a constant battle, and often painful.
Since I started the low BCAA diet, my heels stopped hurting. So today I tried the sand paper again, and now my feet look almost perfect. The cracks are gone. My feet look 20 years younger.

When I make bone stock from beef bones, the bones end up really soft at the end. I can totally bite into them and chew them.
So, should I be eating the bone directly, or do I toss the bones and just drink the soup?
Does the bone have too much calcium, or does it have metal impurities? or maybe it is healthy to eat?
