I will be 66 soon and my life is ruined. My first symptoms started after a car crash in 1998. It has been a steady decline but much worse with my aging process and degenerative spine disease.
Pls put the medical terms on the screen when speaker says them. It helps ppl understand if they didnt understand the word but they could also look it up because the spelling it on the screen.
My close eyesight is getting much worse. I can't read things close up any more and must use a magnifying glass, I feel it is computers and the phone which are responsible. To confirm, if I wear plus 1 glasses for reading will that help to correct the issue ? Thanks in advance Tim
If i eat mostly animal based foods, i feel great and can maintain a healthy weight, if i eat mostly plant based foods i suffer from gastrointestinal issues, poor mental health and weight gains, Something tells me that im carnivor.
A great JOB, TODD. No easy. Refractive change, -1 Diopters to +0.5 Diopters. All objectively measured. That's from 20/50 To 20/20. All scientific engineering. I prefer the words PREVENT MYOPIA, or preserving 20/20, after you get there! Kudos Todd!
There's issues with keto and even mercola has been connecting to information from Ray Peat forums , by the way of a guy called Haidut (haidut DOT me for his site).... Where they found that actually sugar metabolism has it's benefits and best to keep fat calories below 20%
I consider myself very lucky. I was placed on an elimination diet nearly 35 years ago and I'm still on it. Carnivore forever. 😅 I'm seventy-two now and still very happy.
Interesting to listen to this talk nine years later, knowing alot more now about low carb, and in particular about the Randle Cycle, which explains the 10%,10%,80% . Either low carb or low fat will work, but, which is more optimal? Obviously, which ever one coincides with my paycheck! Big pharmacy funds very, very few low carb diet benefits. Medicated does not equal healthy.
I am so glad she also did mention post-covid after a certain medical intervention given over the last few years, unfortunately, this has been seen in me./cfs too its just not talked about. I have met more than a few m.e. patients who got m.e. after some type of va........ this was over 20 years ago
How about the fact that a century ago there were no cars, no trains, no air conditioning, no sir and soil pollutants, no fertilizer & pesticides, no gem seeds and so on.
I have C282Yx2. It caused my liver Cirrhosis. I found out after 10 years of several doctors and misdiagnosis because of a 23andme genetic test. It has saved my life but I'm not out of the woods yet. My ferritin is over 3,000 and my iron saturation is 105. Iron panels should be standard with lab tests.
I have to disagree about "it's hard to stay in this restricted state". Ummm no, actually it's really not. It's like finally realizing just how stupid smoking is - once that reality crystalizes in your brain - done.
It is highly individual, granted. Yes I was a very heavy smoker for ~20 years, and was able finally to quit, after several attempts, by following the ideas discussed by Jean Paul Sartre - which I very loosely hinted at in my response. I've since been able to use the same approach against other issues: most importantly how to adjust my WOE in response to tackling diabetes.
Todd is correct, if you can still read 20/50 on your Snellen. This would typically be about a -1.5 Diopter "prescription". I obviously do not trust it. Clearing your Snellen from 20/60 to about 20/40 (pass the DMV) Would take a year. Very few people have the technical interest and motivation, to even attempt to do it. You should have a goal that reasonable and possible.
Have you had the blood test for MTHFR? Im now giving myself B vitamin injections. I may have misspelled it. Its a genetic mutation that prevents you from absorbing B vitamins in food.
So glad that you feel so much better now, Jennifer, after all you went through! You are a brave individual that also helps so many other people with same or similar issues.
No, Nasha... you do NOT need to recommend a " husband-ectomy ". Promote a " wife-ectomy" and all the medical problems will be cured. 77% of divorces are initiated and caused by the wives, after years of harassing their husbands. Little wonder women complain now on social media " I can't find a husband ". Of course Not. Men are not interested in women demanding " commitment from a man " ... only so, in 2 years she can file for a " husband-ectomy ", steal the children, demand alimony, take the house, and grab all the Child Support she can. ... No, Nasha, change the advice in your speeches. Ross, Toronto, Canada
