@pluto perhaps the Aztec forefathers would worship our European beet as a divine plant same as we do for Maca its just the scarcity and not so widespread growth that makes it rare I guess.

Excellent observation ! Pains me to see everybody walking around and sitting hunch-backed all the time for hours..the epidemy of our times.

great set of advices and recommendations, thanks for sharing

Glad you found something that fits , just careful with falling victim to marketing, most of their recommended products are their own branded ones so keep your mind open

I've heard same benefits could be achieved with Celery Juice and Beet Juice and Arginine rich foods due to massive contribution of Nitric Oxide production as a side effect of the protein metabolism in them. All prob better than popular drugs

Cleansing is more of maintenance and even katabolic/breaking down state where gaining muscle is more anabolic / building state. In order to build muscle you need to be in caloric surplus and eat regularly..that would be 3 meals a day at least and couple snacks. + to gain you need to be in positive nitrogen balance meaning protein intake > protein output because building of muscle is one of the lowest priorities for your body and it needs to take care of building basic protein-based elements like hormones, ensymes, blood cells, immune cells etc etc... Building muscle on OMAD will mean stuffing yourself with gigantic amounts of food in one go which is not good for the metabolism imo...but it can definitely be done and people have gained muscle going OMAD. Your body is getting mixed signals if you starve for 23 hours and it may not necessarily support the anabolic state that you want. I think for you the most rational thing would be to start eating regularly and maybe try to track your meal intake in something like cronometer.com. To gain muscle focus on at least 1.5g of protein per kg of bodyweight and most of all you need to hit those muscle hard physically. If you are relatively new to gym and will have sufficient caloric intake and good stress put on body, you will see gains coming in pretty fast the first year. Make sure to figure out the diet before you go in supplementing any powders or capsules. Don't be afraid of carbohydrates but instead of the starchy ones (flour, white potatoes, white rice) get in and complex sources of carbs from wholefoods (sweet potato, wholegrains, beans, legumes, chickpeas) and also fruits and vegetables. Good luck !!

What is your goal? Is it to gain muscle or to cleanse/detox?

@now is forever not what I would have suggested at all. If your adrenals are down you want to consider a herbal adrenal formula. Corticosteroids will mess you up. Eating a lot of raw foods rich in vitamin C and B rebuild adrenals not drugs.

You can be enlightened as much as you want but as long as you live in this carbon-based shell called "the body" you will feel pain and everything that this meaty package comes with. Conscious or not, you can not bypass the pain that the surgery would otherwise cause you which would make it impossible to accurately operate on you. Your physical body (yes I know it does not exist) is still made from neurons and those can easily get numbed down by chemistry.

@Leo Gura what are some examples paranormal abilities then? cause it seems like all of them are kinda "materialistic" in a sense.

Have to disagree on that, dreams are definitelly not always peaceful. Sometimes I'm glad to have woken up from that shit Don't think that transcending your ego and fully awakening is the same as the levelof conciousness you are at when sleeping. You still have full control when you are enlightened. And even enlightened people can have wet dreams and nightmares.

@Serotoninluv wow didn't know that. That's pretty damn impressive !!

@Charlotte do you know your current blood pressure? Perhaps your adrenal glands need support as cortisol is key hormone that puts down chronic inflammation.

seems like Zen-Devil in the making

This is deep !!

Worse than regular coke. Sweeteners trick your body into thinking it is getting a real glucose, your insulin goes up, your blood sugar goes down and you end up hypoglycaemic and hungrier than before --> studies show that people actually gain weight on sweetened sugar-free drinks for this reason. Also they think because they had "diet" coke they can get in extra calories which usually contributes to the weight gain. And finally most sweeteners are neurotoxins so thats not ideal.

Everyone you meet in your life or listen to can help you grow. Even the most obnoxious person on the train who shouts at everybody, farts and refuses to pay for a ticket will teach you compassion, patience and understanding.

nutritionfacts.org are excelent source of nutritional studies as @dvdas pointed out. I personally don't eat any animal products if I don't have to but I would not push plant based diet on anyone who hasn't studied nutrition a little bit to avoid potential pitfalls such as lack of B12 , D, missing Omega 3 or Omega 6 dominance, lack of Zinc, calcium etc.. But to answer your question 1-2 a week should be safe as long as your liver is healthy and can detoxify the heavy metal load so make sure to get a variety of fruits, veggies, wholegrains and legumes to supply liver detoxification But as @bejapuskas said don't take anyone's word for it and do some research yourself.

damn! I mean...ofcourse after some time the excitement and horniness goes away in the relationship and reason comes back in play but there should be a spark of enjoyable sex every now and then?

Which one was this....I want to know for ...ehm ..scientific purposes.

well done young Padawan, you are learning to channel your feelings and let them pass through instead of jumping on the fury wagon and releasing hell. Most people in this victim-driven country would lash out on all the employees and even post it on social media.

Perhaps you are looking to deal with Yellow/ Turquoise problem in an Orange matter? Medications and doctors will not be able to solve an existential crisis. It is also possible that your retreat took you way above your current level of Spiral and you need to come back because you jumped 1-2 stages ahead. A concious lifecoach or a therapist might be able to help you out instead of sedating you. You need someone to talk to who will not think you are crazy but who will see what is going on there on much deeper level.

Instead of her becoming interested in you, why don't YOU become more interested in her. I mean seriously interested. Not in a psychopathic tendency by asking her about her periods and used underwear but paying extreme attention to what she is saying, learning all about her, asking questions. Most of all this has to be genuine, she will know if you are faking your interest to get into her panties, Most women have a nose for fake-ass dudes and those that don't you don't want to be around anyway. Everybody loves to talk about themselves so just shut up and listen. She will love you for it if you give her the attention that nobody ever has. And you can practice this with random women at work, when on public transport even with your friend females so that you get accustomed to 100% eye contact, get more awareness of your body language, tone of voice and the ability to listen with your whole body.

Why bother waking up, eating and brushing your teeth then, lets just all start raping eachother and stealing stuff from shops. I'm finding these comments to be completely useless for most people even if it bears the existential truth.
