Increasing Adrenaline Sensitivity

[Nina]

The things i came up with are: fasting, cold showers, exercise(?) calorie restriction and stress (any kind)

What else?

So in the end you want your adrenaline level to be lower? I thought that stress increases cortisol and adrenaline and that decreases receptors

Adrenaline receptors increase - adrenaline gets more sensitive so body needs less to do the same job.

Yes, stress increases adrenaline so lowers receptors and after stress stops you have still low receptors so adrenaline will be higher than before stress to compensate those low receptors, right?

The opposite

The opposite

Isn't it that way that insensitive adrenaline means high adrenaline plus low receptors. I do not see how high levels of adrenaline during period of stress could lower the baseline so make receptors more sensitive

Im confused now lol

See below (from this thread Gbol's PFS Theory (quotes)), I think a better title of this thread would be "increasing adrenaline sensitivity"though.

I don't want my cortisol high or low.
Your cortisol is high since you are resistant to cortisol . TO cure this you either turn off cortisol , or you put pressure on it.

fasting does exactly that. Puts pressure on it. So after you come off of the fast, your base level of cortisol will be down . And numbers of the cortisol receptors will be increased. and during stressful times you will need less cortisol

When you eat sugar all the time. Adrenaline receptors and cortisol receptors will be low. And then during times of stress, you will need a lot more of these hormones produced to do the same job. This is how you get constant high levels of cortisol. and also adrenaline insensitivity ( SLOW OXIDIZERS)

NO one needs to push cortisol levels higher. That just makes no sense. You need to keep pressure on cortisol from time to time. Since there is no way you can run solely on sugar from food. That is just a huge misconception. People are easily stressed these days and will require cortisol and adrenaline at all times, and if they just sit and eat. They will have panic attacks later on. I am 100% sure of it.

But also you don't want to put pressure off the cortisol too much, since that will cause cortisol resistance later on.

Fasting is amazing in resetting your receptors. After the fast all your hormones will be lower, since the number of the receptors will be higher.

Now think about what Peat recs, to take hormones. Pregnenolones, DHEA, progesterones. After this you will be hooked on them for ever and will need more and more and more.

And if you ever decide to come off you will be so bad it is not even funny.

Since your body will be insensitive to all of them and you will require higher production , but people could not produce them in a first place , that is the whole reason they took them

Fasting is amazing in this respect. You get so much younger

Peat has this backwards. when you sit and eat sugar all day , that is when you retain pufa. And that is when your cortisol and adrenaline get insensitive and then all of sudden it catches up with you, since you retained all this pufa and now your cortisol and adrenaline are not doing their job and you start using pufa for energy . THIS IS HOW IT HAPPENS

Active people don't have pufa stored. PUFA is burned first.

Fasting does amazing things for people. 1) it burns out all the pufa in 30 days that people retained by eating sugars all the time. 2) it makes cortisol and adrenaline sensitive again, so after you finish fasting you won't be retaining pufas again.

Peat has it backwards.

Oh right yeah thats what i was looking for
