I don't know where you heard this, but it is not true. Methylcobalamin is the active form of b12, and I've had it on my shelf for over a year, and it has not gone rancid. Millions of people buy this supplement and it going rancid is not a concern. If so, this had to do more with the storage environment than the compound itself. What can go rancid is oils, and even that is not true in every context. Extractions using supercritical fluids and under nitrogen blankets can greatly enhance the molecular integrity and thus shelf-life. All of these are natural forms of methylated vitamins: the biologically active forms require complex enzymatic reactions All of the biological functions of folic acid are performed by THF and its methylated derivatives. Hence folic acid must first be reduced to THF. This four electron reduction proceeds in two chemical steps both catalyzed by the same enzyme, dihydrofolate reductase. Folic acid is first reduced to dihydrofolate and then to tetrahydrofolate. Each step consumes one molecule of NADPH (biosynthetically derived from vitamin B3) and produces one molecule of NADP. So your body needs to go through multiple steps to turn folate into methyl folate "the active form of folate". If you have a genetic polymorphism then your body cannot convert folate into methyl folate. Technically all methylated vitamins are naturally occurring from: you're taking the same methyl folate the body makes and taking it from a pill. Remember it does not matter what you personally think is natural, your body does that, it recognizes methylfolate from a pill the same as it would if it converted folic acid to methylfolate. You can get L-methylfolate from foods, but remember the quantities will be less and not all of the folate content will be the biologically active form. Methylfolate degrades easily in food so the fresher the better. Not without overdosing on sodium. Keep it simple. No need for fancy salts that you do not even know with precision how many milligrams of minerals are in there. Try to get your minerals from food, and those in which you cannot in appreciable quantities (maybe Magnesium) get a chelated form like Magnesium, Biglycinate, or Magnesium L-threonate. Get them from reputable vendors who conduct in-house and third-party testing with each batch assigned to a lot number where it is tested. A certificate of analysis is available upon request. That way, you know exactly what you're getting. Magnesium Biglycinate is as natural as it gets. It doesn't matter if it is bought from a supplement or consumed in salt: the body does not distinguish them. With a supplement, you know exactly how much is in there. With salt: you do not, and even if you did, you would not reach appreciable quantities. Filtered water removes minerals it does not add them. So if anything you are getting fewer minerals that are needed for detoxification. Not saying you should not drink filtered water though. It does not cover all of them, but methylation, in general, supports endocrine health. Since you mentioned it: sea salt may contain microplastic, which is an endocrine disrupter. This is why I'm telling you to get minerals from supplements. We cannot avoid eating food: so get the highest quality food you can: plug it in chronometer: whatever you are left deficient in: get via supplements from reputable vendors who meet the criteria I listed above. Good luck, wish you the best of health.

As others have said, there are a million reasons why. Start with the basics: Nutrition and Behavior. Proper sleep (avoid blue light or any bright light between 10:00-4:00 am, get sunlight first thing in the morning. You need sunlight to "activate" the Melanopsin cells in your eyes. Upon exposure of the skin to UV rays, urocanic acid (UCA) levels are increased. UCA crosses the blood-brain barrier and enters neurons, converting to glutamate in a multistep metabolic pathway. As a result, glutamate levels increase, and in some glutamatergic synapses, this leads to increased packaging and release of this neurotransmitter. Glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter. You could also have sleep apnea. Magnesium is required for ATP production plug your diet to chronometer and get all your micro-macro nutrients in check. Then start to see if there are things that are making you feel chronically fatigued: toxins, pollutants, allergies, whatever. Then you can start looking deeper if all else fails, such as genetic conditions (don't worry many of these can be fixed rather quickly.) Ken Wilber described his chronic fatigue in this post. The cause of which is an RNase Enzyme deficiency. I find it motivating that he was still meditating and wrote his monstrous book sex, spirituality, ecology. In this period where he was bedridden. Very inspiring.

@Michael569 I read somewhere that Lithium Orotate is not toxic like Lithium carbonate idk if this is true or not. If so, maybe OP can start using it instead. Lithium L-Threonate is supposedly even better than Lithium Orotate.

@Michael569 It is so funny that people's ideas/protocols for detoxing are the exact opposite of what the body actually needs to detox. I suppose the thinking goes, "I eat garbage, so if I stop eating the garbage, my body will detox." I guess..... but have you ever thought of actually not eating garbage and eating nourishing foods and let your body do the work?

@Adodd This is why it is important to buy from companies that conduct in-house and third-party testing. With each lot being tested (sample testing is not enough), and that provide a certificate of analysis upon request. If you do that, then you need not worry about contamination. Supplements have actually greatly improved my health.

Other than the protocols Leo and others have mentioned (DMSA, etc.) I suggest you start to learn about methylation. If you have a genetic polymorphism that impairs methylation (which more than 60% of people have), then you need to support methylation by consuming. Methylated biologically active forms of (Folate, b12, b6, riboflavin) and methyl donors. I use this supplement. (I have no affiliation with the company.) Consume creatine You also need to support the body's endogenous detoxification. The best food for this is broccoli sprouts. Detoxification is a nutrient heavy process. You lose many minerals and vitamins; it is safe to say that if you are low in those nutrients (Mg,Zn, Vit C, Folate, etc. etc.), it will be hard for your body to detox. Make sure u're on top of your micro/macronutrient intake. Sauna bathing has been shown to excrete heavy metals. Go to google scholar and type (sauna heavy metals). You also lose minerals like Mg, Zn, Iodine as well, not just heavy metals. Avoid heavy metals in food, fish, and animal flesh, especially fatty meat has the most. Rice also has a lot of lead.

@SQAAD Normal does not mean ideal. Yes the "normal" range for men is 300 (ng/dL), his was 200 (ng/dL). However, in my opinion, 300 (ng/dL) is low, yes it is normal, but it is also low. Like cholesterol, just because everyone eats cholesterol and thus the normal range is taken to be the idea, the ideal is lower, especially for those prone to heart disease.

@sda I think this really depends on what school/city/neighbourhood you went to. Me personally, I have never witnessed anyone being beaten by a teacher in school. Although many people have- I went to a good school, so I did not see any of that. But yeah, many things changed very rapidly, so I would not be surprised if that changed also. Most of these teachers who beat up kids are boomers who grew up in tough environments. As I said, 75% of the population is 35 and under, so they are not as accepting of these behaviors as people older than them. So naturally, things will change. I actually witnessed a father beating a teacher because the kid told him that the teacher hit him.

I planned a couple of things for my 24th bday, and they didn't happen. So instead, I ended up bickering with my gf, and I was becoming angry/moody, and my heart was closing. I started to read a chapter from the book Untethered Soul called The Path To Unconditional Happiness; it made me feel much better. Then I ingested edibles and listened to Leo's Video Guided Exercises for Realizing You Are God. Before I began, I meditated for 20 mins, became more and more conscious and took out a pen, and started simultaneously listening to Leo's instructions and journaling all my thoughts-very quick writing, almost like conscious writing, where just write what you think without thinking of style or grammar. This was the first time I began to have very weird mystical experiences. The closest I ever came to this was when I took ayahuasca more than a year ago. I was amazed. I felt surges of energy in my body, and I had many realizations that I wrote down. Of course, it was short-lived and not "a full awakening" by any measure. But it was beautiful and amazing nonetheless. Some of the weird/mystical things that happened to me: My perception felt like it was flowing from me to the room, instead of how it usually feels which is perceptions flowing to you. I was just about to write something about the fluidity of consciousness and time. On that same second just before my pen touched the paper Leo say's "This is not time, this is eternal" that was freaky af!! I had a realization of what is nothing but it was not a complete realization My consciousness felt very expansive and for a second I broke the illusion that fluidity = time passing. I kept looking at my phone in which I was watching the video and to me, it seemed like I was holding this high-tech alien device that contained a message from myself in some alternate dimension. I kept seeing Leo as me..... he even kinda looked like me which I have never seen before even while watching Leo on DMT/LSD. I felt like I stumbled upon a random glitch in the matrix where I was directing myself. This made me realize that was what is actually happening, and I am very grateful. I'm just so glad I discovered actualized.org where I would be if not for this material? My bday would've been ruined by the constant stream of negative thought loops. Instead, I used that anger and negativity to go even deeper and purify my psyche. Better than going out with friends and partying, way better. I'm grateful for stumbling upon this work, it has permanently changed how I live my life. "What you seek is seeking you." - Rumi

@Preety_India Not without overdosing on sodium. Salt damages the stomach lining and causes lesions, as well.

Yes, also make sure you get electrolytes like potassium which more than 91% percent of Americans are deficient in. Magnesium which more than 60% of Americans are deficient in. And also sodium. If you eat a lot of salt and processed food, then you do not need sodium. If you are like me, who eats home-cooked clean vegan food, sodium is essential for maintaining the balance of body fluids and keeping muscles and nerves running. It is also essential for neurons to communicate in the brain. You do not need much. Half a teaspoon of salt will do. Go with the least processed salts. Avoid sea salt as it may contain microplastics. Table salt can sometimes contain industrial pollutants

Creatine monohydrate. It is the most well-researched ergogenic compound. Creatine pulls water into your cells to build up muscle. As a result, creatine can cause an increase in weight due to water retention. "The increase in cellular swelling (water retention within the cell) per se appears to have a positive influence on muscle cell growth." https://examine.com/supplements/creatine/ It also has other benefits beyond muscle building, like methylation, cognitive and immune benefits. It is also safe and cheap. I recommend it to everyone, honestly, especially to vegans like me. Creatine is a naturally occurring non-protein compound produced endogenously in humans and other animals.

It is was more along the lines of "I could kill you without blinking an eye." The monk replied, "I could die without blinking an eye."

was it not the video on Zen Devilry ?

@Lucas-fgm Hit me up if you need a tour guide

No. That is false. I'm not a nationalist, so I have no skin in the game. New laws have passed where police officers won't even ask who you are with (if ure out with a girl). People meet up in cafes all the time. Husbands cheating is so common; women too (although less so). No one died or was even imprisoned. Restaurants used to be segregated. Now they are not. Abaya's (traditional Muslim clothing for women) was mandatory, and now it is not. Guardian laws are weakening (although from what I remember, some still exist; I forgot the nuances) . Women could not drive now the can. Female employment is reaching the same levels as male employment. All of this happened in less than 5-6 years. Of course, they don't make out in public or fuck in parks, but still, it is a testament to how fast society can evolve, and it will only keep evolving from here.

Haha - people will fuck everywhere. Don't let anyone fool you. I'm sure Leo has seen a horde of Saudi's in vegas partying like animals. There are parties and drinking and drugs. Keep in mind more than 75% of the population in Saudi is under 30. The youngsters are more liberal than their parents, very much so. Almost all of my friends, even the religious ones, drink, have sex, etc. But many of them hold on to stupid beliefs. It is between orange-blue, the trend is going towards more and more orange. People are materialistic, especially in Saudi. My parents are religious af and they're cool with me having gf, things are changing, society evolves we've had concerts (Imagine dragons, Tyga) for the first time ever last year and everyone was fucked up. Of course, alcohol is not legal so they still do it in the shadows. But this is a huge advancement. And as you expect, the boomers hated it and blamed covid for the moral degeneracy that the culture is experience. People are the same all over the world

thank you for reading.

I think he went to a clinic that Derek established from More Plates More Dates. I can't entirely agree with everything Derek says, especially on diet longevity. Still, he has a lot of comprehensive knowledge and even many anecdotal experiences with pharmacologically influencing hormones when it comes to endocrinology. So PsychedSubstance is in good hands. Derek has vetted a team of doctors to make sure they are not just your average doc who will monitor him to make sure that nothing goes wrong, like permanently shutting down endogenous production. Keep in my mind most people who run into serious problems with steroid/anabolics use the worst kinds like synthetic androgens like Trenbolone acetate, for example, which is neurotoxic. Whilst testosterone can actually be neuroprotective, especially if you do not ingest super-physiological amounts. How it is administered and the frequency plays a huge role in minimizing side effects; if you blast every two weeks, you will run into more problems than someone who takes small doses every few days or so because that will reflect the pulsatile nature of how endogenous androgens work naturally in the body. But yeah, I agree, this should be as a last resort after behavioral/environmental/nutritional strategies fail.

These are my two favorites. Taking high doses of acid whilst listening to them (especially the ultimate structure of reality) has been one of the best experiences. I love Leo's videos on psychedelics: as someone in the comments once said, his style should be called guided contemplation.

I learned a lot from watching this video. First, I felt empathy for this guy. Some people have a genetic polymorphism that makes the methylation process of the body harder. Thus, it makes it harder for these individuals with this polymorphism to detox heavy metals as the body's detoxification process depends upon methylation. What is Methylation and Why Should You Care About it

@Nahm, I wasn't the one who mentioned turquoise CEOs. That was OP. As a side note, I think it is interesting knowing spiral dynamics and living in Saudi Arabia because in the last 5 years a massive and rapid cultural evolution has taken place. It is like I get to witness society moving from blue to orange in such a short time. Religiosity is falling, materialism is rising.

I'm not sure I understand your question.
