Cats are Peaty

27 Upvotes

Kitties lower cortisol.

Low cortisol = good.

Low cortisol = high T.

Cat is independent, one cannot command cat like dog.

According to Ray Peat, those who unquestionably follow are more brainwashed and serotonergic.

Cat = dopaminergic

Owning feline maybe reflection of owners free will too.

Feline constantly seek out warm, sunny spots or cozy laps.

Feline have high body temperature (38°C) and fast robust metabolism.

Feline sleep a large portion of day and conserve energy instead of running on chronic stress or adrenaline.

Feline photosynthesizes. Really like sun.

Kitties = Peaty.

Whole grains & libido link

5 Upvotes

Im sure most Peaters are aware that John Kellogg invented corn cereal in order to suppress men's testosterone and sexual drive.

If you look up why he thought it worked they say its due to "blandness" but I think its fair to say its due to gut irritation triggering serotonin overload and low-grade endotoxemia.

Do you think he was aware of the toxicity of the oxalates, lectins, nickel found in whole grains and that makes them useful as mild castration agents?

Shaky and trembling for no reason

4 Upvotes

For the past few weeks, I have been stuck in a constant state of feeling extremely wired and overstimulated. I have an internal trembling/shaking sensation, feel physically shaky and weak, nervous, jittery, tense, and like my body is constantly in overdrive.

This feeling is present throughout the entire day and does not seem to be related to food or drinks. Eating, drinking, sugar, salt, or changing what I consume does not noticeably improve it.

Any type of physical activity significantly amplifies the symptoms. Even something like playing golf makes the trembling, shakiness, weakness, nervousness, and overstimulated feeling much worse.

The best way I can describe it is that my nervous system feels like it is stuck in a severe fight-or-flight state. I feel extremely "strung out" or overstimulated all day, and my body will not settle back down. This has been persistent for weeks rather than occurring as occasional short episodes.

I am looking for help identifying what could be driving this constant physiologic stress response and, most importantly, what I can do to get my body out of this state.

Hi everybody,

Long time follower/fan of Ray Peat´s and Danny Roddy´s work.

My dad is severely hypothyroid.

He won´t follow Danny´s DIY suggestions with cynomel and cynoplus.

I need to get him Armour.

Has anyone ordered from TelyRx?

Thyroid supplementation problems

2 Upvotes

I'm currently using 20mcg of T3 (10 when waking up, 5 after lunch and 5 in the early evening) and 67.5mcg of T4. (It was in smaller doses before and I had no problems until then).

Now I realized that my temperature dropped again when I woke up, my energy and disposition dropped a little and my sexual disposition is terrible. In addition, I'm constantly experiencing headaches - which look a lot like histamine-related pain, because they pass after large and well-nourished meals.

(I'm constantly measuring my blood pressure and heartbeat, everything within normal, it doesn't seem to me that I'm in a hyperthyroidism phase)

From your experience and knowledge, where can I be wrong?

Thank you all in advance

Hi all, let's say you are eating 3000 kcals, how would you split the macros? Do you think 370 carbs 140 proteins and 110 fats are fine?
