It doesn't matter. Salt is sodium chloride (NaCl). Himalayan salt is usually not iodinated, which is probably the only difference.

It is biologically impossible to be allergic to iodine. Allergies are due to the other part of the iodine contrast mediums, not iodine itself.

Woah, just discovered this thanks to you. Any episode recommendations?

I never actually understood why allergy to iodine contrast mediums was interpreted as an allergy to iodine itself.

Told my dad I loved him 3 hours before he died. Do it.

It feels like everybody has pre-diabetes (re dubbed insulin resistance) these days.

Didn't even know what seitan was. Looks disgusting ngl.

The situation at the EU border reminds me a lot of the barbarian invasions which destroyed Rome.

All of these people IRL represent the typical Kamala voter probably.

Also, no way in hell does that skinny black dude deadlift 500lbs.

It is completely immoral to force any individual to commit group murder.

One piece probably radicalized me the most in my youth lmao.

But how will the unproductive wellfare class influence policy?

I remember reading that all those years ago. Bitcoiners should adopt the same attitude when it comes to the state instead of simping for ETFs.

Since I was a dumb communist, I would have recommended the Gulag Archipelago.

Unnecessary and also not in line with our ancestral physiology. It was much more common to not have food than it was to not have water. I don't think dry fasts are worth it unless you are after bragging rights.

I think people today are more open to a nuclear holocaust. People I used to think were rational peace loving folk are foaming at the mouth when I mention I want peace in Ukraine and in the Middle East.

People who endorse wars have no fucking idea what they are talking about. War is an evil perpetrated by people with vested interests. These people keep pushing us into killing each other instead of allowing us to focus our anger at them.

The purer and harder the liquor, the better.

It's still literally poison lol.

Imagine the worst piece of shit person you can. Imagine this person stacked up on water bottles and medical supplies while they were on sale and spent his time waiting for a disaster to happen.

Disaster strikes. Who's there? Why, it's the evil price gouger looking to secure a profit, selling his wares at a 500% markup. People will have to spend more money to secure scarce resources now.

Is this evil? Well, consider FEMA for a second. Government agencies ensure supplies always come in late. They are not interested in profit, they are interested in ticking boxes.

Real economics describes reality. Keynesians will have you believe it is possible to cast illusions. Such an approach always leads to tragedy.

“It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest. We address ourselves not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities, but of their advantages” -A. Smith

And communism is the synthesis, comrade.

Can you prove you are not a vampire?

So... we're fucked either way? I thought using my own node with whirlpool would mitigate the problem. And when sw got shut down, I thought I was clever for using jam (joinmarket), lol.

What's the best alternative then? Using lightning, like submarine swaps?

1. Egoxenous cholesterol does not affect endogenous cholesterol production. ~90% of cholesterol is produced in the liver, so if you increase your dietary intake, the liver will just produce less. Cholesterol is very, very important and its production is dictated by very old genes.

2. Sugar is bad, m'kay.

3. Sugar and carbs might as well be used as synonyms. I think this is part of a language game where ignorant people will say that carbs aren't the problem, but sugar is. All carbs except fibre, which is completely useless by itself, gets broken down into monosaccharides, most commonly glucose, which is then metabolized by the body.

4. Seed oils are pure poison.

5. So just drink raw milk 😉

Honestly, though, if you aren't actively doing resistance training, milk probably shouldn't be in your diet anyway due to relatively high carbs. It's a quick source of complete protein, however. Plant protein is not complete protein, though, so I see no reason for ever drinking a plant "milk" product, unless for the taste.

I'll just say that the definition for hypertension gets updated to lower and lower values every ~15 years or so. Used to be that a systolic BP of over 140 was considered hypertensive and an indication to treat, but now...

The AHA, which is probably the most corrupt health organization in America, has decided that a BP over 130 is hypertensive and should be treated. As a rule, it is probably best to ignore what the AHA has to say, since it is more of a marketing arm of pharmaceutical companies than a real medical organization. I would treat all the medical doctors working for them as prostitutes.

You shouldn't trust anyone, ever. The average health podcaster has no idea what they are talking about, yet they are quite confident in their (lack of) knowledge.

Probably easy for me to talk since I am a doctor, so I can smell the bullshit, but any person owes it to themselves to verify information. People should get comfortable using pubmed and get educated on how to verify medical information.

1. Always search for RCTs and Systematic reviews of RCTs, observational studies CANNOT establish a causal link.

2. Always make sure to read the proposed effect size. If the RR of an observational study is 1.2, just ignore it and continue living your life (that's the correlation between LDL and heart disease btw). Anything under 2 is simply not worth your time.

3. Always check who funded and authored the study. I ignore any nutritional study, no matter its supposed quality, published by Loma Linda university because those people have a religious goal with promoting vegetarianism.

4. Don't trust any new drug studies, always wait for at least ~7years before taking any new drug seriously. 7 years is the average time it takes to recall a dangerous drug from the market.

5. Be very skeptical about large effect claims and surrogate markers. I don't care if a diabetic drug improves glycemic control if people die more frequently while taking it or if the mortality rate remains the same.

I recommend reading Malcolm Kendrick's book "Doctoring Data" and "Deadly Medicines and Organised Crime" by P. Gotzsche to learn more.

It is essential for the person to understand that medical research and medicine in general has been completely corrupted by pharmaceutical companies and governmental regulators. It is better to assume deception while reading a research study than honesty.

Wasn't Rumble banned in Brazil last year?

What changed my mind was that I used to be fat, but then out of desperation I wanted to try out carnivore (I really, really never liked vegetables).

I have a biomedical background, so I was programmed to hate keto, for no good reason. I also repeatedly did the calorie counting thing, succeeded only once before yo-yoing back to obesity.

See, what they don't tell you about calorie counting is that it is a miserable existence. Sure, starting out with an 1800 kcal goal will make you lose weight, but in a month that will go down to 1600, then I had to maintain a 1300 kcal intake just to not gain weight. Our bodies really, really dislike losing stored fat, especially if insulin constantly remains high due to ultraprocessed garbage food they give us.

Pizza is probably the worst junk food a human could eat. It is both high in carbs and fat (never mix the two), but is relatively low in protein.

It is also made with harmful seed oils.

I hope in the future we will have many smaller states and people will be able to choose where they want to be taxed. I think it will be pretty obvious which system actually works better.

In my personal experience, most socialist simply can't understand economic thinking. They do not understand working for profit or how it can have a positive impact on society, they need to micromanage everything. Socialism is the ultimate act of intellectual masturbation.

It is still your fundamental right and legal arguments can be made based on its guarantee in the Bill of rights. The people in Europe probably believe their rights come from the state, as opposed to being only guaranteed by the state.

The state has been trying to subvert and circumvent your rights since the very beginning. An argument could be made that even your income tax is unconstitutional, yet it's still there.

There is no more compelling an argument for a 2A than the state of the European Union countries (+UK), Venezuela and Brazil. Our governments have become tyrannical. We are now openly discussing how to censor speech in order to save democracy. The status quo is being maintained by the people with a vested interest in maintaining the power structure.

i.e. our politicians need to learn to fear their people again, it seems.

Good, I thought cheap #sats were over and done with.

"Mastercard's card does have fees, including a €1.6 issuance fee, €1 monthly maintenance fee, and a 0.95% transaction fee. "
