Health “Biohacks” | The poor, misunderstood calorie

Now that we’re being honest after the last article on light hygiene… there are things I know are very healthy but don’t do them because they don’t mesh with my lifestyle. Sometimes if I think they’re important, I make them mesh.

[Patron link]

Such is life.

These are some of the things I’m currently doing; an update of sorts.

Here are some more tips that may not have robust support from randomized clinical crossover trials, but my gut still seems to think they’re good. And low cost, not time-intensive, and importantly: relatively convenient.

Joint health

Oysters

Liver

I have about a dozen more of these on deck but would like to hear from you. Requests? Feedback on these? Questions? Fire away! Leave a comment.

Most sleep drugs are absolute shit.

Check EEG studies on Ambien or any of the “Z-drugs.”

They look identical to EEG studies on alcohol. When they work (not for everyone), they knock you out.

Not help you sleep.

5x greater intake of seed oils. Place your bets!?

What do you think would happen if people were put on different diets under strictly controlled conditions, 16.5 vs 3.1 g seed oils/1000 kcal per day. Ad lib.

They’d start eating more and gain a ton of fat. Right? (See here for pictures of sample meals)

Rebranding GLP-1Ra & SGLT2i as “CIM”   O_o

Context: I’ve been a follower of and advocate for low carb diets for over 20 years. For many reasons. But this new gen of ketards is setting us back decades.

[Patreon link]

Rant warning.

First story is about the majestic GLP-1Ra (eg, semaglutide and tirzepatide). They act in the brain to suppress appetite very effectively. People report an inability to “clean their plates” like they used to. They eat less and lose fat. Clear victory for…..

Seed oils. | The poor, misunderstood calorie

You asked for it. I’ve written about linoleic acid many times going back about a decade, long before the “seed oil” fiasco. 

[Patreon link]

Eg, Molested fats, and inflammatory, trans, or linoleate.

Also, of relevance: Marijuana (see below)

Older theories were that it induced a pro-inflammatory environment (or anti-anti-inflammatory), but one of my main conclusions was where it was found. What foods?

As a percentage of what’s actually consumed providing the bulk linoleic acid, it’s snacks, donuts,,, empty calories. So was it the inflammatory or trans fat aspect that causes metabolic problems, or is it confounded? 

Adiposink revisited?

More fapping fat-trapping? Or the all new pull model of obesity?

Canagliflozin, semaglutide, and tirzepatide OH MY

New players (from oldest to newest). All work. Now it comes down to a cost:benefit analysis.

[Patron link]

Not “costs” as in risks or side effects, and mechanisms aside, but literal price. In other words, people who haven’t reached their goal body fat with keto & resistance training and have other options available

Canagliflozin is a SGLT-2 inhibitor, so you pee out glucose (kinda mimics a low carb diet, minimally, but has beneficial metabolic effects).

Next up: semaglutide, tirzepatide, and a cost:benefit analysis.
