get out the vote!

No! Don’t vote for who you actually want. WTF is wrong with you?

Fun.

Annualized, that could easily become a few hundred thousand. In 2 years over a billion.

Basic exponential growth is concerning.

response in a forum puts people off

I don’t care. I can’t fix stupid. I can explain things. I can’t understand them for you.

People that make claims without evidence will have them dismissed for exactly that reason. If that’s putting you off, then kiss off.

The reference is my formal education in the subject matter. I’m honestly quite certain this person needs an education more than a paper that without such an education they’d fail to comprehend.

It’s a search engine for scientific literature.

I’m set off? 😂

It’s very difficult to prove a negative. There’s tons of papers out there with weak evidence and poor methodologies and very low citations claiming various non-ionizing EM are bad. The problem is the lack of reproducibility. You can look up meta-analysis on this, if you like.

Well shit, now you’re in a list.

My big thing was cook your vegetables and limit fruit intake, especially because he prizes over ripe and high fructose fruit.

He’d basically would leave fruit out to rot, covered in fruit flies, and then he would still eat that shit. I got him to put that shit in a bowl and cover it with a towel.

He would complain though. The flies need to eat, too.

So he would throw compostable material around his yard… Which arrested pests, naturally. Then there was the rats in the walls and ceilings… But the rent was cheap!

I’m not sure what you’re asking for… Bluetooth is extremely low power. An order of magnitude from consumer WiFi. Which itself is far less than cellular signals, which are far weaker than broadcast (radio and TV.)

He seemed to like fruit the riper it got. His favorite bananas would be brown and mush (he called it ‘like candy, so good.’). I tried it. Tasted funky and fermented, like ethanol(and other fuesal alcohols). I think he might have been getting lowkey drunk/buzzed off overly ripe fermented fruit, which would definitely provoke some mad squirts.

But then again this guy didn’t believe in germ theory. I showed him microscopic media of bacteria and viruses and fungi, even white blood cells doing what they do best (seek and destroy invaders!) He claimed it was all fake news/CGI/AI… We even made kombucha (I taught him how.) Which he enjoyed… Which I guess it’s just magic to him and not basic fermentation…

Proof by identity. If you don’t conform your betrayal is confirmed…

Cardiometabolic function isn’t the same as metabolic syndrome. Cardiometabolic function would be like a spectrum or perhaps a map. Metabolic syndrome would be the section of spectrum(say red in the rainbow) or area on the map (like a swamp) that designates the “danger zone.”

Here the term “optimal” is used and that’s around 7 percent as having optimal cardiometabolic function. That doesn’t instantly mean 93 percent are impaired. The other classes are **intermediate, which is half of people, ** and lastly poor which was ~44 percent.

Fat can be oxidized for ATP via β-oxidation (look up FAO or catabolism, or see above links.) Fat → fatty acids → β-oxidation → acetyl-CoA + electron carriers → electron transport chain → ATP.

Example: Palmitic acid, a 16-carbon fatty acid, undergoes 7 rounds of β-oxidation producing 8 acetyl-CoA total. After everything runs through the Krebs cycle and electron transport chain, you end up with roughly 106 ATP. Which is a huge amount compared with glucose(1 glucose is about 30 ATP.)

You aren’t making much sense though. It’s like if you took endocrine physiology and smashed it into a story about a single villain.

Weight gain is typically merely about CICO, barring rare genetic disorders. With an unimpaired metabolism, if you eat excess calories you will gain weight. No hormonal imbalance necessary. This is basic energy expenditure(Calories Out) to calories consumed(Calories In, thus CICO.)

Actual metabolic syndrome afflicts 30-40 percent of Americans. Not anywhere near 96 percent. Some people are just fat and diet and exercise will absolutely work metabolically to control their weight. Some people lack of willpower. Gastric bypass again proves that with caloric reduction their metabolism, in most cases, is fully capable of sustaining weight loss.

Cancer metabolism is also flexible. It does not exclusively depend on glucose and is not “starved” by removing carbs. Fats and amino acids are fair game for many cancers. Gluconeogenesis alone creates sufficient glucose to feed cancer.

4x is quite an exaggeration…

The WHO(and basically the global consensus) minimum suggestion is 0.8 g/kg(so 96g for a 120kg male, while the statistically average 90kg male eats 96g/day instead of only 72g). They further suggest 1.2-1.6 g/kg is the optimal range for recreationally active people. This is beyond biological “requirements.” Also, 0.8 g/kg is still a conservative value that’s probably greater than most under 40s actually need, however tracer studies have suggested 0.9-1.0 g/kg on average(which considers factors beyond MPS) and even more for elderly.

Used to be able to have Bluetooth that could work past two blocks. Turns out thaf was NOT good for the body.

Class 1 Bluetooth devices can reach around 100 meters under ideal unobstructed line-of-sight.

There’s no scientific study to suggest Bluetooth radio frequencies are harmful. They’re very low power and it’s non-ionizing radiation.

Smoking(Polonium and lead, and thousands of carcinogens), UV exposure(sun), radon exposure(usually in homes), and air pollution are all significantly more dangerous than radio frequencies.

Radio frequencies can absolutely microwave (heat) you under specific circumstances. Like at AM/FM and DTV antenna power levels, sure, but only if you’re climbing one of the towers, then sure they can cook you inside-out(with many megawatts of RF energy)… But by the time it gets to even 1 km the power is so low it’s harmless(about a million times weaker than just one meter away, so 1 km away a 1 megawatt antenna would have only 1 watt of energy). Bluetooth class 1 devices top out at 100 milliwatts and consumer-grade WiFi tops out at 1 watt. It would kind of like being afraid of a full moon giving you a sunburn… It’s just not going to happen.

We used to be room mates years ago. He(his dad) owned the house, but he was basically the property manager (we paid rent to him and his dad let him keep the money.) We (other room mates) didn’t really care for the guy(he didn’t really work, besides the occasional side hustle, like doordash). His brother also lived there and didn’t work or pay rent. His brother was fairly normal, albeit a gamer addict(slept during day, gamed all night, likely to maximally avoid the fruitarian). We both liked to cook, so we bonded over that. It was weird because he’d project his mental illness onto his brother and suggest his bro needs professional help. And of course this wasn’t unique to his brother. Then I would suggest something like, “you act like your brother sometimes have you ever considered professional help,” he would go full denial mode.

If he managed to have a poop that would stink then he would then water fast. He’d fast for so long eventually black tarry stool happens. Influencers teach dumdums this is proof your body is detoxing … In reality it’s basically just your stomach digesting itself, and it smells extremely foul. And it’s medically concerning… But to dumdums that’s success I guess?

Hydrogen peroxide isn’t an effective degreaser or solvent or surfactant… It’s a good disinfectant…

Gojo or otherwise citrus cleaner or chemical degreaser would be the logical choices with a soft bristle brush. Dish soap is probably better than most bar soaps. Mineral oil or baby oil might help loosen things up.

After that maybe try topical hydrocortisone or diclofenac for inflammation.

I have a friend that’s a “fruitarian” (he’s been convinced that humans are frugivores by the influencers.) He says he loves pooping, which he says he does about 6 movements a day.

I’ve tried to explain that we’re omnivores and high fruit diets are clinically proven to not be healthy long-term… Dude is skin and bones (he’s literally wasting) and won’t listen. He’ll eat some veggies, but only raw. He avoids anything cooked in anyway because ‘cooking stuff creates toxins and causes disease/cancer and other animals don’t cook their food.’

Nutritional science suggests 9-12 servings of fruits and vegetables daily, but the limit for fruit is 4-5 servings (while there’s no drawback to additional vegetables, but it’s also not significantly (statistically) healthier). Fructose does funny things to metabolism for reasons we don’t fully understand (many claim it acts like a hormone), but the fiber seems to help, though. Juices should be highly limited and basically treated as refined sugar. Science also strongly suggests properly cooking foods…

Eating lots of(or exclusively) raw fruit will most likely result in poorly/partially digested diarrhea, roughly apple sauce consistency and generally still looks more like food than poo(which describes my fruitarian friend’s BMs, which he doesn’t find problematic, apparently he considers it a feature and not a bug – short intestinal transit time is point of pride for him, for some reasons, basically… he thinks if his poop stays in him too long it becomes toxic, so he thinks a normal healthy stool is toxic).

Long term risks include severe nutrient deficiencies that may carry with them permanent physiological damage. Yet he still isn’t convinced by the numerous clinical studies on this … Then again, he also thinks WiFi is unhealthy for some asinine/dubious reasons so he turns off his router at night so it doesn’t disturb his sleep (his roommates plug it right back in, lol.)

He used to eat normally and supported Bernie Sanders. Now he’s technically a raw vegan(he calls himself/humans in general frugivores) and believes so much dumb shit(anti vac, no longer respects trans pronouns, etc), and obviously he started supporting MAGA/Trump, so we don’t talk much anymore.

The problem with realizing that you have cognitive impairments is that you have cognitive impairments. It’s a vicious cycle I’ve sadly seen in multiple raw vegans. The longer they do it, the crazier(delusional, disordered) they get. Like my fruitarian friend doing weeks long water fasts as well… He looks like someone with severe anorexia/bulimia. But oh boy does he pack it in! And within hours it’s squirting out the other end. He’s one of those people that don’t fully close the bathroom door. So everyone can hear the squirts and splashes! Still less annoying than being lectured to about eating healthy by someone as clueless as they are confident… Plus his ‘shit’ doesn’t really stink, as it’s not digested. Another point of pride for him.

We’ve evolved to eat cooked food. Please cook your vegetables, people. Salads are fine but most of our veggies will be very much more digestible and nutritious after being cooked! Some ruffage/raw plants are beneficial, though. Other animals need to chew chud basically all day to meet basic nutritional needs from vegetation. We have cooking, and it’s awesome.

Elimination diet starting with low fodmap foods. Keep a food journal as well. Very effective when paired with an exercise routine as you’ll get a good idea of what foods are bogging you down vs finding ‘clean’ foods.

Developing stamina and endurance with routine cardio is probably the best thing for day to day energy levels. I suggest trying for a solid hour of sustained cardio, whether that’s walking, cycling, running, rowing, or gym equipment like a cross trainer… And remember all it takes is a week off to start losing stamina, so it really needs commitment and consistency.

Just in general digestive-wise, you may benefit from a postprandial walk. Sometimes called a fart walk. XD
