Fat is your fuel, so look there first.

Me thinks, fat like others have stated, but do consider your electrolyte intake.

"Everything tastes better with butter" That should be a T-shirt...

What is a CAC? And should I care?

A cheat day is really just old programming being stuck inside of our brains. It's part of our conditioning. We've been trained to consume. Somehow we think its a treat, to have a day where we can put toxins in our body. It's no different than drugs, or the booze. Dopamine flows through your system, you think of times when you had a delicious German chocolate cake... good times. It's addiction. You'll always be an ex addict. I am not saying, don't have cheat days. Not saying it's gonna kill you. But know what it is, at least. My wife brought Ding Dongs in the house. I did not eat them. But I leered at them. Maybe just one? If it was actual food you'd never think like that. Nutrition and entertainment should not be conflated. There can be both, of course, again, at least know what it is that you're doing. Hot take, probably.

That Bruce Lee quote was the inspiration for me. It's a martial arts mindset that since has taken off. But back then, martial arts was also much like religion, dogmatic. You simply could not mix martial arts. As for fruits and herbs, vegetables, use them as you need them, yes. But the time to have bowls of greens and fruits is over for me. Less is more when it comes to that.

That's how I viewed my first one, with a welding helmet lol.

Nuts are somewhat of a crutch. Yes, high in fat, and protein (somewhat), but also full of starches (inflammatory). They just can't beat eggs (pun intended). If any nuts, almonds, just a handful. It's so easy to overdo nuts, and it becomes a snack, and a comfort food. Then consider the ingredients when you talk about roasted, salted, etc.

It's not a conspiracy. At least, not anymore. There's plenty of evidence and observations that most doctors do not have your health at their number one priority. Neither do dentists. It has become a money making industry, and yes, they are evil. Simple as that. Read the book Metabolical by Robert Lustig. This you will not regret. And yes, do not let your diet become your religion. A dogmatic approach, or striving for perfection will have you fail. Do what works for you.

It's all about breaking barriers which have been shaped by lies and deception. You realize you are on your own. That even your doctor may not know what he is talking about. The LDL cholesterol stuff, fiber, etc. Unfortunately, we are on our own. I've had a lot of inflammation disappear overnight. But I do also believe, there are some great vegetables and fruits out there that are anti-inflammatory, cancer fighting super foods. The main thing is, I believe, really remaining in keto, for one. Eat as much animal based food as you can. But if you feel like you wants a little bit of carrots (good for the kidneys) or broccoli (good for the brain), then do so. Just do so in smaller amounts, and you may find you get the benefits, without the oxalates, toxins, and carb overload. I was full on carnivore for about 60 to 90 days. But have since then introduced some plant based foods as well. I'd say I am on a carnivore based, anti-inflammation diet. 95% of what I eat is still animal based food. Probably even more. No sugar, no trans fats, no seed oils, no processed foods, I don't see how one could go wrong with this approach? Eliminate, adapt, and adopt. Make it your own diet, use all the good stuff.

Yeah me too. Twice for me now I was lucky enough to witness something as awe-inspiring as a total eclipse of the sun. Last time was in Europe back in '99.

I don't even know why it is illegal? McDonalds is legal! So it can't be for health reasons.

The meaning of the word "conspiracy theory" has changed over time. It is now used mainly to discourage people from critical thinking/lateral thinking. It's meant to deter questions. The covid era, I think, has really accelerated that. What we do know is that we've been lied to. About many of things. We need to do our own thinking, that is more important then handing that over to another entity. More important than being wrong and learning from it. But we read headlines only and repeat this as truth. Do your own thinking, have your own thoughts, but do research, think logically, and don't be married to your findings, be open to change it. I always say to my son, have an opinion, but know WHY you have it, and welcome scrutiny and question. That way your opinions and views will become strong and solid.

Absolutely, if you get your bloodwork done and commit to post cycle therapy, etc. Again I have absolutely nothing against the use. If women can go and get a BBL, then we should have our option open as well.

I'll remember that when I'm tempted to use them! I'll use it as a selling point to my wife lol.
