Looking for advice (healthy living)

Migrated topic.

I am preparing myself for my first DMT experience, which HOPEFULLY will happen before the years over (aquiring / extracting difficulties). In doing so, I am starting a healthier living and eating situation. I’ve decided to quit smoking, go on a Ketogenic diet and start intermittent fasting. I’m hoping I can get some help and advice in which foods are good to go with and some possible ways to help me with this process.

Any advice on physical well-being is welcome, thank you!
 
Ahoi Chris743, I am not a nutritionist but from my own experience:

+ Eat less, drink plenty of water, "ventilate" yourself daily (go outside and move, all your muscles, fibres, tissue, joints, .. want to be moved and stretched, same as the brain) and give yourself time to sleep/recover!

+ Related to your food question, we modeled a "food pyramid". Simplicity is my way to go, organic, local and mostly unprocessed goodies (veggies, spice, nuts, ..). Take your time to cook healthy and tasty meals daily. It is/you are worth it. Beside of the fun aspect, our diet seems to be a crucial part of our/how we experience!

Greetings from the kitchen, tseuq the cook (not only DMT)

"Let the food be your medicine" sounds pretty reasonable to me.

.. and don't forget the mushies. :love:

Diet and exercise information on the internet are two very dubious areas to sift through. You'll find polarising opinions with varying levels of credibility and all sorts of logical fallacies that sound convincing. So rather than provide you with anything you could find out just by googling, I'd rather suggest you develop your skills in critical thinking and basic scientific evaluation - you don't have to go to too much effort here, just enough to learn how to validate information and spot misinformation.

Thankfully there are a few locations where consistently high quality info is distributed, here are a few you may be interested in:
Examine.com - Quick and easy supplement database. I frequent this site quite a lot.
Strongerbyscience.com - Basic guide on how to perform exercises.
@foundmyfitness - Dr Rhonda Patrick, Ph.D in biomedical science/expert on nutritional health, brain & aging.
@GabrielleMaston - Dietitian & Exercise Physiologist. Masters Public Health. PhD candidate - super obesity.
Precisionnutrition.com - High quality nutritional advice.

All the vest best with your new lifestyle :)

Checked out the first link you posted and I was quite impressed. I drink 3-6 eggs for breakfast with a glass of milk, shot of peanut butter, and a scoop of whey. I can average up to 12 eggs in a single day, so the article on eggs I found here was interesting. Thanks for sharing. Are eggs healthy? - Examine
 
Only my opinion, so please take/leave as such.... but it seems that diets and/or exercise plans fail when theres no goal in mind and/or when theres too many things going on at once...pick a plan that suits your goals and stick to it.....and give yourself enough time to see results before you bail.....also i dont know what your diet looks like now but easing into a new diet bit by bit is always best. Yherell be a lot of changes in body chemisty goin on so its best to not put your body through all that stress at once...lots of good stuff pointed out already and Rock gave you a good head start...Best wishes on your new journey. Peace


Wakinyan i also consume a fairly larger amount of eggs per day...not quite a dozen but ive done it before....on average 4-6/day and i dont drink them anymore. It made me a little uneasy to see in that article that they were doing their trials with 2-6 eggs/week....i feel the sudden urge to call my physician for some labs:?:

Hey, Family: I'm a collegiate trained CPT and Nutrition Specialist for Athletic Performance. I agree that there are TOO MANY sources of information out there, as was stated here already. One thing I did notice from your post was HUGE protein intake. Unless you're trying to be a bodybuilder and put on LOADS OF MASS, you don't need that many eggs or that much protein. You have to figure out what your lean muscle mass is currently and calculate a gram to a gram & a half of protein per LEAN lb of muscle, evenly spread throughout the day. With extra being needed 2 hrs before workout and within 45 minutes after working out to refuel and repair. Every 3-4 hrs the body needs protein for bodily processes and if you don't have a readily available source ( in the stomach or guts) your body will cannibalize its own tissue somewhere. There is loads I could say here, as its my job, but I'll leave you to your research.
~Set a goal, take steps toward it, mark the progress, continue to strive!! Best wishes...
 
I recommend to go into parasites and how to free from them.
For example you can look for Toxoplasma Gondii - The intelligence and power of these little fellows is just mind blowing...literally ;)
 
check out "Allen Carr's Easyway to stop smoking".

brought me from 40 a day to 0 without ANY troubles, it was a miracle!

That's twice this week I've heard his name come up. :thumb_up:
 
Thanks all!! I’m no stranger to diet and exercise but the last 8 months I put on lots of weight and ate terrible after a bad herniated disk, but I’m always looking for new things to try n see what works on me. I’ll definatly take a look at the smoking thing, I have a hard time with quitting forsure.
 
Herniated disc? I got ya covered. I strongly encourage you to read Explain Pain or The Protectometer, depending on the complexity of information you can handle, the former containing slightly more scientific jargon than the later, but both have exactly the same message. They are by David Butler and Lorimer Moseley of the NOI Group here in Australia. They have literally changed the game as it relates to musculoskeletal injuries and persistent pain.
Here's a snippet of what they cover in their books.

I’ve done a Ketogenic diet on and off for over 10 years as a competitive bodybuilder and to optimise physical and mental health, feel free to ask any questions regarding the subject!

Some important information:

-Drink more water ( carbohydrates store water in the body)
-More sodium as it will get flushed out with the water the carbs isn’t storing anymore.
-Electrolytes, especially important the first weeks to avoid “Keto flu” after the initial weeks when you’re Keto adapted continue
to use them daily at a lower dose.
-Magnesium and potassium is very important on Keto.
-Fibre, you need more fibre as you’re omitting carbs which has a lot of fibre, use leafy green vegetables, seeds.
- Get most of your fats from Avocados, cold pressed olive oil, cold pressed avocado oil, cold pressed hemp oil.



As I said in the beginning of the post feel free to ask regarding Keto way of living.

Some words of compassion Chris...
We are in this together!
I will also quit in about a month or two while being on the road. A habit that I strongly see as a part of me and relate strongly to my development from teenage times into the present. 13 years, of which I had not a single day without cigarettes. Never attempted to stop thus far and when I do, I want to do it properly.
Allen Carr has been a blessing for many that attempted, additionally I would recommend to listen and deal a bit with your insights, hence the importance of the psychological phenomena that are related to quitting. When quitting, try to make yourself aware that you are freeing yourself from something that is quite poopy, see actively the act of quitting as a good thing. I know many that quit(ted) smoking and never really stopped longing for it.
I think that tapping the psychological switch from longing/greed, to fuck these cigarettes/this times are over, is quite essential for a prosper and successful attempt in becoming a non-smoker.
Best of success to you! I think of you 😉
