That's totally wrong, I ate well for my body chemistry like 14 years pre fasting, I was sick from fin, that's why I fasted. There are people who fasted for cancer etc.... and they didn't cause it themselves.
Sure fasting can help some reset with a bad diet, but I barely had any diet at all pre fasting. I was doing juice feasting weeks pre that. And I was ripped, every year before 2017, for like 7 years in a row. Not perfect diets but pretty good. Fast oxidizers are supposedly not supposed to fast anyways and your experience won't mirror everyone's (in many things).
I am just saying not everyone is religious, I have tried many different diets too. In fact I believe in fasting more than all these things including minerals and all, but yeah it is harder to do in a sense.
There's nothing to believe, I was brain damaged and suicidal and unable to read... or do anything, barely could watch a show, all my posts on here started during and after fasting.
Bad diet doesn't cause severe brain damage or whatever, it was finasteride. yeah it help fat loss and this and that carnivore and is helping activity more but I am not sure if it helping hormones and stuff I can't see, like all the enzymes. That is why minerals are probably better, especially TEI because it gives a program. Better for me, I am sure there are people with issues that carnivore fixes. I will stick it out longer though.
It is true, you cannot fast forever and ever. It is a great tool for many, however it is going to be hard to rely on forever. Fasting helped me get to like 99 percent healed. I was healing things beyond PFS, I just find it hard to believe, that can only be done with TEI. If I did stop that and didn't continue because life got busy, and I was trying to live my life without being concerned about health or PFS, then that is tragic.
I will get TEI again soon. I didn't believe that water fasting could help me until it really was helping me. Without it, I wouldn't have done randro/4andro, treated ADHD again, kept a clean super clean diet, and gotten back to training, working, and studying. Sure there is no magic elixer that works for every single condition/illness and for everyone, and all their chemistries.
I can see some good things about carnivore and some bad things, but it may improve using it longer. Maybe I do that, and get to my bodyfat goals... and then start TEI. AND then, see if I should change my diet.
But see the results on TEI with carnivore, otherwise just change the diet. I am hoping minerals are a lot better than test enanthate and anavar, and I am pretty sure they are, considering they helped sexual health for many months/ 1.5 years or so to come (although I am sure a lot of that was randro/4andro, and herbs, etc the months before 2018 sept and jan 2019).
Maybe TEI will help me rapidly catch up. IF I quit carnivore it may be because I am at some of my fitness goals, it may be because hormones or tei are helping me more.
I do feel like I am lacking vegetables/ fibre digestion wise as well as hormonal / mineral support. Mg, b, enzymes even with an imperfect diet would help digestion a lot for me, cooked spinach/ some veggies too.
But, I will stick it out. There's way less digestion anyways. I know there's many possibilities in life, people literally called me a rockstar in 2019, I was fit, ripped, good looking, and healthy as fuck, possibly healthier than ever again. I only went down in health a bit and didn't treat it because what was I going to do?? I already recovered from PFS and other things, and I didn't feel like explaining, I have to do minerals even though maybe 200 people in western canada will know what the fuck I'm talking about. And I knew asking/ talking to most doctors would be a waste of time, hormonal wise.
I got TRT prescribed because I stayed up and crashed test with sarms, because I thought maybe it would help and I could avoid doing things that reminded of when I was sick but realistically I did tei in good health and enzymes and all anyways, so it isn't something to be feared. Yeah maybe he doesn't look ten-fifteen years younger but I mean this is hugely genetics, self care, and other things. It is mostly for overall health and if it helps people's body chemistry great, if other things are needed, that's fine too. Obviously people respond to things differently, hence why I said YMMV and said that like 100 times in my old posts.
We're on the same team. 11 days is not bad at all for a fast, and I think maybe that could be near the limit for fast 1's. 3 I have talked to here did 10-11 days max, most did 7-8 or less.
Yeah I mean I respond to certain supps amazingly and certain meds amazingly. DEX = 9.5/10 9.9/10 even with near 2 yrs off (cuz of being down mentally not because i am better off without it).
Anavar maybe 6-7 /10 more i am sure with more lifting. test e etc 5-6 /10... but test cream and i never tried but prop probably 8.5-9/10 and 8/10 respectively.
I will get more test cream and experiment with some hormones on carnivore but mostly cut bodyfat and preserve LBM, and then I will do tei. IF at 6-12 weeks things are hella better nice, if it seems I am hurting myself a bit with hormones, or they do nothing, then yeah I will quit that. IF I have a lot of health to catch up on then TEI it is.
I paid EVENBETTERNOW like 400-450 canadian for 2 tests (bad exchange rate, CAD to USD), and I don't see them in the mail, I mean I don't see their testing kit. Not sure.
ALSO my bro worked like 120-140hrs a week like 6 yrs straight in his first residency, he says neurosurgeons and bone surgeons sometimes work even harder, so 150hrs a week, that's not going to be antiaging. I really doubt they work as hard in Aus as they do Canada, but still. Many people would fall apart in Chaffee's profession. He also played rugby professionally pre medicine.
No one is saying and I never said that because these ppl do whatever ev1 does. I cured PSSD with zero help zero forums, as a kid. Lost like 80lbs pre forums and most of PFS on my own but i asked for advice here, I know a lot about health. I'm saying it is kind of silly to argue against people because they are out there. Argue against frauds/scams sure.
My mom looks 20 yrs younger than her age and would even moreso if she had a more restricted diet... I'd probably look young even being unhealthy ish but lean. I did 5 yrs ago, 3 yrs ago and 10 and 12 and 15 yrs ago for the most part. I didn't rite after effexor and rite after PFS. there are people dying that look even younger, it doesn't always mean all that much.
I was just sharing things that I learned. I do agree there are lots of false idols in the alternative health space and traditional health space too. A lot of it is just impossible to know on an individual basis. Data only would help, no one's researching many chronic conditions, and even if they do, a lot of it will be delayed massively and not be useful to us. It's hard to know what to do. I was already really sick before 21-22 and fixed it and maybe detoxing then and regrowing hair at 27 28 from meds and not using certain other meds (for days barely. one day most ADHD medicine. lamictal weeks) in late 20's, maybe TEI would have done that or other minerals however, it is easy to say those don't matter, but what choice is there? I don't think most ppl here went and studied biochem and found out what minerals did what. It is trial and error. The data doesn't exist and if it did, we'd all be 80-100 anyways, so what can you do except try things.
They use data to color HTMA's as pseudoscience anyways. And the "non pseudoscience" is actually pseudoscience, the WEF, ADA, DSM, American Medical societie... have killed millions and millions of people.
Society itself is sick and I was healthier than 99% of people pre 2022 2023. I'm not joking, that was long standing results from this PFS recovery stuff, now not knowing what to do is quite disheartening.
I can tell Saladino looks older, because... his diet changed. The moment he stops training a ton, he will look far older and fatter. WHen he is drinking entire watermelons of sugar, if it works for him good. But it isn't sustainable forever, probably many modes of existence aren't.
Fasting does a lot more than reset just bad diet. EVEN in 8 percent to ten percent bodyfat I still fasted. Helped me ADHD wise and sort thoughts out and organize and was meditative. It works better in better health for me. AND In poor health, it saved me. It was used before there were any studies and is used by mammals. Dogs will instinctively not eat when sick. I used it for flu, depression, insomnia, whatever before. Also there aren't answers people know for each medical thing.
Many diseases can really be seen as just inflammation that manifests differently in individuals.
You can use Fasting for cancers (some types), dimentia, alzheimers, various things that may all be inflammation but not everyone's health issues is just poor diet for them. Seems pretty elusive and no one knows what it is then, which is odd because I was healthy 90% of 20's and 30's with discipline just training an hour or so a day or near it and eating pretty good.
I've heard of Snake Diet, but it doesn't matter. I've known hundreds of ppl that intermittently fast to this day. And lots of fit people that look great for their age. They take care of work and family and life and aren't on youtube, showing their fasting videos. It isn't about belief. I didn't even tell my brother I was water fasting till I was done for fear of people saying it wouldn't work. Pretty sure it was a chain events that finasteride caused, and not bad eating that made me so sick that I had to fast. Considering I was ripped and getting ready to apply to law school the year before that.
Many people are more resistant but if you did hair tests on most people, there would be imbalances for sure. I know you say you don't care about hair tests, but I don't think there's 900 different ways to be healthy. We are all the same species. At the same time there's more than one for sure. General health principles apply to everyone.
If TEI wasn't so annoying and the health space wasn't filled with charletons, I'd probably have continued and mentioned it to more people. It is hard healing in silence/ and not explaining anything to anyone.
But i will get on that soon. I hear you in that people need dif diets at different times (in dif chemistries).
Docs in these respective fields aren't telling ev1 to do it or you're bad. bone docs telling patients to eat a certain way to avoid bone surgery and brain surgeons saying their surgeries don't fix everything and diet would, is a pretty rare site in medicine.
82 year old carnivore. SHE STILL does ranch work.
LARGE NOSE 70 yr old woman carnivore .
No diet will turn someone into Rob Lowe or Jared Leto obviously, but whatever works for you, is good.
PETERSON looks way better on Carnivore than not and people without dimentia by definition have antiaged. People that cured cancer, alzheimers, etc.
NOt saying by any means it's for everyone. I literally said I prefer other diets and like cheese, dairy, some... kefir, spinach, and other stuff. I think med diet and paleo I like most.
I like fasting even better. I looked 22 and strong jacked on coke at 25, I preferred that diet and just getting my school and work done but it isn't sustainable (maybe, probably not).
Can't just do coke forever and die at 99.
I didn't know who Bear/Oseley was until tonight, I looked him up. HE had throat cancer and ate tons of dairy that isn't carnivore anyways. He was sick he probably was stressed and didn't eat perfectly.
These are 4-5 people we are talking about, who cares. I could smoke and not get any blemish most the time, however I took care of my skin 20+ years. That doesn't mean I should smoke the next 20 or 40yrs.
Trust me I'm vain, there's plastic surgeons in my family. I got an abdominoplasty, and whatever... tried fin. GOOD diets aren't good cuz of some person on youtube and they're not bad cuz of someone on youtube either. True magic of a diet shines at 90-200days. I don't even think diet matters as much as time restricted eating for 90% of people. Maybe some need to eat more but I've done one meal or two meals or even three meals in the last 3-6hrs of the day and eating anything, I would feel better than breakfast, lunch and dinner. Literally more work done and better focus, that isn't just cuz it's bad food. It's been like that forever. 99's in grade 12 versus bad grades in grade 10, eating once a day in gr. 12. 90's in finals in university once a day, missing class with issues eating breakfast or lunch.
