I think it's considered "minimally processed", no more processed than cheese or bread, really. It and soy milk are traditional East Asian foods. Personally I find it a lot easier to digest than just simple cooked beans, lentils, and a lot of cooked foods (including the ones that are considered super healthy because they're high in many micronutrients, but also are high in oxalates) I relied a lot on hemp hearts when I was doing micronutrient min-maxing, particularly for the mag, zinc, and even iron. pros: also easy to digest. cons: a bit too easy to digest, at times. (In one end and out the other.) solution: pair it with something harder and slower to digest.

Other than supplements, here are some top contenders (though it might not be to your taste). Small fish with the bone in, like sardines (shown below) or even canned salmon (with the bone): Black sesame seeds. Grind or crush it or else you're wasting your time. You can blend it into a milk (or milk alternative) and it's pretty good! Or alternatively, you can make a spread from grinding it in a coffee grinder and adding a bit of sweetener of whatever kind, a splash of vanilla extract (optional), and a bit of oil or water to get the paste to the right consistency. IMO these are the easiest and tastiest ways to eat it. In East Asian culture we use this in our regular food, especially sweets and sweet drinks. To me it just tastes good, healthy or not, but I'm not sure if non-Asian people like it. Black sesame is also an important food in TCM and Ayurvedic medicine, for whatever it's worth. Another possible option: blackstrap molasses -- it might taste a bit strong if you're not used to it, and also I haven't personally figured out a way to use it consistently in actual food and not something you down by itself. Still it's always a combination of foods and even then it can be hard to meet the DRV without supplementation. If you have specific calorie and macro requirements to meet though (e.g. high protein with a limited number of calories), this is where I think it actually starts to get impossible. Keep in mind RDV is just a guideline anyway, it never accounts for the absorbability of specific foods and food groups.

Who cares about these recommendations; nobody has ever died or had problems because they didn't eat a lot of calcium all the time.

Post #59 I have strayed from the path.

Body builders... and a lot more than that... (though I would almost never take health advice from them, especially since health is not so often their concern anyway) RIP my stomach. I actually think 750g sounds very doable in comparison. Can and should I do that though? No, it's still too much dairy and straight up would not agree with me. Greens that are supposedly low in oxalate but high in calcium: kale, bok choy, turnip greens, mustard greens, etc. pros: much higher calcium absorption (like 40-50% vs. about 5%) cons: might be bitter and not tasty, speaking as someone who was forced to eat lots of green leafy vegetables growing up lol.

I tried to show up to my own show once. Only to discover there was no space for me, so I left. -
Stating any kind of year at all. Because we have this silly standard of basing it relative to an event we're not even sure really happened. As if Jesus gets sacrificed on the cross and people are suddenly like "Alright, we can start calling this year 0 A.D. and then start counting up instead of this silly B.C. business where we've been counting the years backwards this whole time.

You guys try to be dominant lol?

Oof. I wanted to see the best in him, I guess. Not a fan of people who cut corners and freely claim authority though.

@Breakingthewall It's pointing to impermanence and meaninglessness It's not necessarily a denial of current physical reality but it simultaneously is also. It's a denial of its permanence and meaning. Like a mirage or illusion, it ultimately lacks in reality regardless of the period of time in which it seems to be real. It's not to be logically understood because it's real and simultaneously unreal. -
Have one mask myself. Picked it up in Jamaica in 2012. It's a souvenir, not a ritual mask. It represents the start of my transformation. It was the start where I changed my life around. That's me with the creator Joel. Taken near James Bond beach, het had his little hut and made souvenirs.

It's a great show 👍

I have been digging in the archives: https://www.actualized.org/insights/leos-mask-collection-01 https://www.actualized.org/insights/tibetan-ritual-mask https://www.actualized.org/insights/winiama-bat-mask https://www.actualized.org/insights/ancient-egyptian-mask BTW: @Leo Gura I have seen the request before for adopting a search system for the blog section, I would like to add for future posts maybe work with tags (#topic). This can help improve grouping of subjects.

There's a lot of options too if you don't prefer to go to a gym or can't! (Time, energy, and money is an issue for a lot of people.) I myself could go to the gym, but I don't prefer to be watched or interact with people and would rather keep that energy to myself. For me, the gym is not a social place. Plus, I could just stay at home and work out, and not think twice about throwing on some ugly clothes and making ugly faces under high exertion. Outside the house, I mostly only swim and do certain calisthenics/ classical gymnastics conditioning that I can't do at home (mostly in a public park/ school yard), and occasionally lately I go for a run even though I HATED it growing up. I swim seriously though. At home: I do a lot of yoga, and these days I also cross train classical gymnastics conditioning (which replaced what mat pilates used to do, because it does all that and much more) and classical ballet barre. I find it especially important to address areas that are weak and tight (sometimes both), especially as a hypermobile person. Like many girls, I did some of both growing up, so it's not exactly new to me. For heavy resistance training, I mainly focus on heavy kettlebells, I also use very heavy resistance bands, (and have the equipment that goes with it). These days I'm not using barbells and dumbbells as much. Lately I also do a lot of steel club-style training, and I finally just started heavy steel mace. It's so much fun! I used to do traditional Chinese martial arts as a teenager and I've always been a heavy weapons kind of girl. (I'm yearning to return to a martial arts studio though. Maybe next year or the year after, ideally.) Mostly I train for power, power endurance, and specific skills. Most of my equipment doesn't take up that much space other the very basic bench and power rack situation and the deadlift bar. Other non-gym options which are relatively space and cost efficient: various calisthenics/ gymnastics equipment (pull up bar, gymnastics rings, dip bar, those cheapo sliders you can get for like 10 bucks), suspension trainer, jump rope (a staple in the kickboxing/ boxing community). You can get those mini stair steppers or walking pads if you just want to increase your step count and don't want to step outside. Or if you want to step outside and try something different, put some weights in a backpack and go rucking (just make sure that the weight isn't awkwardly distributed at the bottom of the bag and it's helpful to have the supportive strap around the chest/ upper core, which is especially important the more time you wear the backpack and the more weight you put in it). Honestly you can probably get away with using a non-rucking backpack for up to 30 or 40 pounds as long as it is made with robust enough fabric. If you want machines or to barbell squat or bench a lot of weight, honestly yea, you will probably have to go to a gym that has a power cage and whatever other equipment you need if you can't build a proper garage gym. But then you'd need to go to a proper gym (usually a specialist one). A lot of public gyms don't actually have that equipment anyway. Like, both of the community gyms near me have a smith machine but not a power rack.

@Zigzag Idiot

Hehe. Everyone got so quiet when i brought up HPV. Its like HIV I guess
-
😂

just a male whore.

@LordFall seems like I freaked you out. It's no big deal. ITs HPV. but you shoul be aware of this paticular infection becuase it does apparently hit lots of people. But its worse for a woman, especially if they are 40 plus - it could turn cancerous. For guys it usually just goes away, and girls too. Just wanted you to be aware.

What are you? A soothsayer?
