Carnivore Questions
I'm contemplating going carnivore in January. I have a hard time meeting my protein goal and I want to try Arnold's exercise routine which is not going to be effective without plenty of protein. I'm sure I can do google research and learn some stuff, but I know there are people on here who do carnivore, and I'm interested…

Keto and migraines - my reflections
I starting having migraines the year I turned 30 (monthly during menstruation), and they drastically increased in frequency the year I turned 35 (5 days a week every week). I started doing keto for migraine control last year. Almost immediately I stopped having migraines, including the monthly hormone triggered ones, but I…

Leangains Advice
I'm 5 weeks into Leangains, and starting to have a lot of trouble adhering to this plan...I want to stay on it because it seems to be working, my arms look more defined, my ribs are starting to show so it does look like body fat is reducing (measurements are tomorrow, so hard data is forthcoming). However, I am so hungry…

only 3 pounds - pics (I hope)

Boron Experiment Results
I don't remember who initially recommended a boron supplement to me, but whoever it was - thank you so much!!! Several years ago my mildly nagging carpal tunnel took a huge turn for the worst. Which meant that whenever I overdid things with work or sewing or weight lifting or pushups I was in agony for days while my body…

What about fish?
In the China Study they grouped "meats other than fish" as a separate category. This is the group where so many of the statistics pointing to a negative health impact from meat originated. So, what about fish? It was sort of glossed over in FOK. Has anyone found or researched any data regarding negative health impact from…

Cake?
I need a vegan cake recipe - does anyone have one? I'm good with using earth balance instead of butter, and almond milk instead of milk, but I'm at a loss for what to do instead of eggs? I tried ground flax seed, it didn't set up right, it was burnt on the edges any soggy in the middle. Is there another substitute that…
