  1. I'm watching it due to the recommendations in this topic and so far it's great man thanks.
  2. Cool man, very creative.
  3. California too or not?
  4. You can look it up once you get tired from only meat or whatever. I tried it and it felt pretty non/minimal-inflammatory for the gut.
  5. There are positives and negatives to everything. People fear getting ruled by leaders and want more freedom and they fear that their self determination is in danger which i can understand. These fears are valid imo, fears are so easily exploited by populist leaders though, they lied about the NHS numbers etc. and probably about a lot of other things too. Brexit has more negatives to it ultimately imo because the EU will obviously never be perfect but it's a great project which has contributed a lot to peace in Europe and it would be better if the UK was on board. On the other hand Brexit can be a wake up call for the EU to become better and more relatable.
  6. I'd be a bit scared about that too. @Village have you ever tried the lectin free diet?
  7. Why is this turning into a carnivore vs vegan thing? Why do extremists tend to take over discussions? We need a strong center not these extremes
  8. It has to taste decent at least for me, those crickets were unfortunately not really edible for me at that point. I do eat some "meat alternatives" sometimes like quorn which isn't bad at all taste wise. i'd also try lab meat if it's tested and "safe" thnx btw, will check it out.
  9. Tried insects, they had a really bad aftertaste, maybe it was just that certain product which was bad. I'll try them again.
  10. This technique seems good, stay very aware when you get cravings, observe the cravings, still indulge in eating what you crave but stay very aware while doing it.
  11. In a way nothing stays the same and most things can't be conserved for a very long time probably and we can't really go back to the past so strict conservatives are mostly on a losing post I think it's weird that conservatives generally aren't really fighting for a better environment, because preserving/conserving a better environment/nature should be a very high priority if you want to be conservative about your country. For Western Europe the demographics in some countries changed very fast in the past few decades and still are. Imo probably too fast and I don't know if it's sustainable in the long run, maybe it is though. So i can understand why conservatives want to slow down immigration etc. in some places. Even if it stems from fear. In a glorious future there are no borders and it will be great but we're not there yet and won't for quite a long time. Don't know about SD and that's what came to mind
  12. ^ eh probly not, i've already read enough about food sensitivities and diets in general imo on the internets, reddit, articles etc. was just wondering about your experience but it's cool back to the arguments boysss
  13. Can you elaborate a little bit on what you had to elimante and what are staples in your diet? I'm interested because i have some gut issues too sometimes.
  14. Yup Dr. Gundry. How long have you been on the meat diet until your gut healed?
  15. I've seen some videos where Leo said we shouldn't overestimate how evolved he is etc. etc.
  16. Are you judging Trump and his supporters, right wingers, conspiracy theorists etc. Or are you kind and compassionate to them without judging? Or is this just about the forum?
  17. yea it's "weird" i also tried happy asian woman and happy woman. When you just type in happy woman you can see quite some happy white women alone.
  18. 6 days in, feeling alright Funny thing is when i fasted before (spring, last year etc.)the obsession with food got huge during the fast most of the time. Was watching cooking/eating shows all the time, walking around the city looking at menus from restaurants in which i haven't been etc. This time during the fast i never once watched any food shows etc.
  19. Right now i'm fasting since about 65 hours only water and tea, i'm shooting for 5-7 days. Did it the first time about 2 years ago and got into it because for some gut health and other health issues in general. I think it's at least good to give the gut a break once in a while. I've also tried different diets for health like vegetarian, fodmap, carnivore, lectin free diet etc. It's also nice in a time in which almost everything like food etc. is available in abundance, to just say alright i won't eat for 6 days and after that i'll appreciate it again even more. Fasting has been done for thousands of years for health and spiritual reasons and apparently it has some real health benefits.
  20. + some meat like 5 times a month, eggs, goat cheese etc. is what blue zones eat according to google
  21. Just the normal youtube video episodes but as podcasts. Because i generally prefer to listen to the stuff when i'm out and about and not watch the videos. (Also i haven't listened to that many, still new)
  22. Nobody else? Sad I've heard there are benefits meditating in a group setting.
  23. There seem to be already quite a few "carnivores" around, people who only eat meat. I've seen the story of Mikhaila Peterson, Jordan Petersons daughter. She apparently had a very bad auto immune disease since she was a child and depression and fatigue. Had already replaced joints at a young age because of it and when she dropped all food besides meat it got apparently much better and she could even drop the anti depressants etc. Because apparently all other food irritates her gut and body to the extreme and is very inflammatory. If you're really sick and desperate then you feel better it's a blessing of course. But i think it's a bit dangerous how she advocates the diet and tells people to "just try it" Because the amounts of meat consumed if 50% of the population would be only eating meat would be immense. Also we don't really know about the long term health implications of that diet, of course people on the carnivore diet always have some examples of people who have been living on it for a long time. Jordan Peterson was on the diet, but he still had to take a lot of benzos, got addicted and doesn't feel good right now i think. I've tried the diet too for health reasons, i'm always trying different diets. I wonder if some people on the carnivore diet ever tried the lectin free diet? Which is another diet that is minimally stressful for the gut and intestines.
