Start with 1-4 weeks of just sunrise and sunset exposure at 5-15 minutes if the ectoderm and neuroectoderm are that severely atrophied.

Then introduce 5 min midday sun exposure, and gradually build from there. Including O3 PUFA (DHA specifically), vitamin A, copper, magnesium, riboflavin, zinc, and taurine as well.

Estrogen in itself is pro-GABA and neuroprotective. Estrogen dominance or, more accurately, the imbalance between hormones, metabolites, and neurosteroids is anti-GABA or excitatory. A handful of the estrone metabolites is more specifically anti-GABA. Serotonin is both inhibitory and excitatory depending on receptor and subreceptor unit site binding, typically tending towards more inhibitory, or pro-GABA. Hence why increasing it is effective in cases of obsessive-compulsive disorder and anxiety.

Not quite. Just like your research, “hormone of darkness” is quite outdated.

Melatonin is produced in the mitochondria by infrared light. What time of day is infrared light present naturally? Oh, that’s right, daytime. Catch up on the latest research.

Missing how POMC and melanin are destroyed by artificial light and nnEMF.

It’s not just sunlight avoidance, sunscreen, and glasses/contacts.

That’s the true root cause to skin cancers. And it’s not just past sunset either. It’s causing harm any time of day, just moreso past sunset.

Even spending time inside with windows closed can make one blue light toxic.

This has been researched and common knowledge since the 1970s - 1980s. Not really so common anymore, of course. It’s not as profitable as a lifetime pharmaceutical prescription.

This is another major reason why I recommend investing in term insurance if you choose to ignore circadian rhythm and light environment. Disturbed circadian rhythm of the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system: relevant to nocturnal hypertension and renal damage link.springer.com/article/10.100…

There seems to be a deep misunderstanding of what occurs with glucose metabolism while consuming a ketogenic or low carb diet that I’ve seen floating around the Ray Peat community. The claim I’ve seen going around goes as you begin to break down your muscles directly into amino acids, which is what stimulates gluconeogenesis to produce glucose, and that this occurs regardless of caloric intake or dietary composition.

This is not remotely true if you are eating sufficient protein at a caloric maintenance or surplus (fed state), even when exercising when net protein balance is impacted most in this context vs at rest.

Completely changed my diet, lifestyle, environment, and relationships with myself and those around me. Utilized herbs, supplements, and various compounds along the way to support those processes and changes.

Quit all drugs, quit all inflammatory foods and “foods”, quit all drug-like relationships. Began spending my time learning more about my interests, eating a whole food diet at a nutritional surplus to resolve extensive deficiencies and supplemented gaps along the way, started to surround myself with people who actually wanted what’s best for me and didn’t just see me as stupid or not worth their time.

The most difficult aspect was likely changing my own conscious outlook on myself and my own life, finding gratitude and value in my experiences and self. Lots of deep shadow work, delving into the darkest emotions I had suppressed for most of my life head-on, and processing them effectively, then accepting.

I don’t really remember how depression feels anymore. I recall the memories, but it feels like a different person experienced those memories now.
This took a couple years, gradually making more and more progress. Figuring out the ins and outs.

Chronic social isolation was the final obstacle I had to overcome, so I moved cross country to be closer to those I had grown closest to. Perhaps the most profound effect on my mental health, where I had otherwise tried to biohack my way out of that biochemistry. Nothing beats positive relationships with those you feel comfortable and safe to be around.

Great way to induce insulin resistance and elevate total/LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, among a handful of other detrimental symptoms.

The much better option would be increasing potassium and magnesium intake in relation to sodium.

Particularly 2:1 potassium to sodium intake in diet.

Creativity is actually a degenerated serotonergic, dopamine-dysregulated brain state. Well, think about it.

Artificial lighting, circadian dysregulation, and blocking the sunlight all contribute to dopamine dysregulation globally throughout the body, but especially in the eyes and brain.

Various common antibiotics also wipe out Oxalobacter formigenes and other bacteria that metabolize oxalates.

I believe artificial blue light and nnEMF have a similar effect due to the depth of penetration of those wavelengths and their effect-coupling to vitamins A + D cycling.

The last time I wore sunscreen was in 2017.

AZ summer, 110-120 degrees that day. On the river, tubing. Applied sunscreen full body. Ate mushrooms so didn’t feel my body literally being cooked alive. Got home that evening with sun poisoning and pictures below. ImageImageImageImage

The window of his truck suppressed red and infrared light spectrum that offsets DNA damage from UV light spectrum exposure while letting in all of the blue Long hours on the road (melatonin suppression which offsets UV light DNA damage) and likely often poor diet (lacking constituents and micronutrients that do the same) as well.

They both go hand-in-hand, there is no one better than the other.

Nutrition is required to fuel energy metabolism, exercise promotes better energy utilization from macronutrients consumed.

They are intrinsically linked. Most of those who prioritize nutrition over all else have little muscle mass and some amount of fat mass.

Other way around, you should be eating a BAB (Big Ass Breakfast) with low to no carbohydrates, focus on protein and fats.

Moderate lunch. Small dinner. Carbohydrates best when UV light is present outside. Leptin status and digestion is dysregulated if you get tired after a large meal.

Otherwise quite solid advice in this thread.

Free glutamates included to all ultra processed and fast foods is one of THE primary drivers of food addiction and hyper palatability at its core. More names on labels than monosodium glutamate.

Orthophosphate seems to be an additive included to municipal tap water to inhibit the corrosion, and consequent accumulation in water, of lead pipes. Excessive phosphorus can certainly be an issue if you end up consuming the tap water without filtering for whatever reason (most filters should account for phosphates), but can be countered by sufficient calcium intake in the diet.

I was just having this thought myself. I used to see this world as a hell prison, a purgatory.

I believe news and social media promotes this perspective very strongly, and intentionally. When you step away from it all, you really do begin to see the beauty and vibrancy in this world again.

More sun at sunrise and sunset while grounded barefoot to bare earth, minimize or eliminate blue light and nnEMF exposure, zero tolerance for both after sunset, more seafood and shellfish for DHA + iodine, spring/mineral water over RO, eliminate sources of fluoride as well The blue light and nnEMF issues dehydrate you on a cellular level. No amount of water or electrolytes will hydrate you until this is addressed.
