Why insulin resistance is the key to healing long covid and chronic illnesses (and why psychedelics work)

This information is strictly speculative and based on my own experiences. This does not mean that it will be the same for you. Treat this information as strictly educational and
The vagus nerve is so important to glucose metabolism. I talk about this a lot. You can suppress a lot of symptoms and feel so much better by going on a low-carb diet, but this is
Back to 90% health after my recent reinfection exploration (tldr: healed severe LC with scorch protocol, willfully reinfected for science and treating again, but now with all the
This blood test comes 5 months after my last one. Within the last 5 months, I have performed two 5-day dry fasts and ten 36-hour dry fasts.
I am aggressively updating it and adding more information under the Simplified and Condensed Scorch Protocol 2024. If you're not subbed, here's the sneak peek
Simplified and Condensed Scorch Protocol 2024You’ve probably just stumbled upon dry fasting. Or you’ve finally tried everything and are close to giving up. Welcome desperation
Too long fasts when in a very high cholesterol situation can lead to gallstones. Switching to a higher carb diet without bringing down cholesterol levels can be even worse, quicker.
Stimulants are addictive and build tolerance. You need to consider this when thinking about how and why you use caffeine.
When you start a dry fast you can expect that your digestive system will be shutting down very quickly. The easiest way to look at it is that it shuts down 3x faster than on a water fast.
When you are severely sick with a chronic illness, it's like you're trapped in quicksand.
I had a messy section about schenikov vs filinov that i updated, just a heads
On the one hand, it is an opportunity to cleanse the body, get rid of a number of serious diseases, strengthen the immune system and make the body more perfect. On the other hand, this event is associated with certain, sometimes considerable, risks.
People have been talking about this idea that the internet is kind of dead for about 20 years now, and it's starting to feel really true.
Bile Acid biosynthesis in liver and intestinal reabsorption were suppressed under fasting status, whereas refeeding ameliorated the decrease in biosynthesis and reabsorption of BAs due to fasting.
Amazing discussion about dehydration and remission from seizures. I hope this article resonates with you and reaches some people who need it. Dehydration is such an unexplored, but potentially powerful option for so many diseases.
Yet, the participants in the aforementioned study demonstrated normal blood pressure, heart rate, and hemoglobin oxygen saturation, safe values in serum creatinine, urea, K+, Na+, and glucose, a moderate increase in serum osmolality and a substantial increase in glomerular filtration rate.
You can see that by pairing both nutrient deprivation (starvation) and higher sodium levels (hypertonic stress) you get more autophagy expression, however, there seems to be a maximum limit of autophagy at a given time. A threshold and limiting reagent.
You'll notice that a lot of synergies come into play when mixing fasting and psilocybin - Showing us that these insights were long known in ancient Greece, and are attributed to many of the most well respected philosophers.
I keep chatting with people who have not seen the updated protocol in months. I wanted to let you know that it is constantly evolving and being fleshed out more, trying to answer
The deeper you go into a fast, the more sustained and larger stem cell regeneration effects. However, the deeper you go into a fast, the more stress you apply to the body, and it becomes critical to balance it properly. Also the longer you fast the more you activate your quiescent stem cell pool.
While gluconeogenesis can provide glucose during periods of low carbohydrate intake, it may not be sufficient to meet the high energy and substrate demands of stem cells during active regeneration.
When we fast, our body turns to stored fat for energy, a process known as fat oxidation. This isn't just about energy; it's also about water production.
Glycine, a non-essential amino acid, has been studied for its various roles in the body, including its involvement in the process of autophagy, the body's way of cleaning out damaged cells and cell components to make way for new, healthier ones.
