Fear of losing money.https://t.co/2eQWGVVvgp

Gambled with the moon and won.https://t.co/y15gtoeP96

@stahura @ZPostFacto @sama I used game theory to predict energy balance in gut and figured out how to heal myself by directly operating on lipid function. I wanted to remember the whole chess board again like in my childhood so I could compete with him. I ain't afraid of nothin. https://t.co/GhSuKvhJA4

Risk tolerance is modifiable.https://t.co/HBb9TNv8Ly

Fear vs Curiosity an the impact of metabolic function (driven by lipid signaling) on the desire to explore vs hunker down.https://t.co/RGl6MdUPjG

A little birdy told me to speak to the big yud.https://t.co/Lb4IopHRHGhttps://t.co/4L2CdAo1yA https://t.co/Q4mK0LKHkl


Moon? What do you mean moon?Ah I mean the important serine/threonine kinase and it's role in mTOR associated risk tolerance changes we see in bipolar disorders.https://t.co/6svMYDZA4D https://t.co/SAQ7veDom1


I speak funny. The words don't work right some times. So I realized when I was talking about the moon. I was talking about mTOR. Serine = Selene.https://t.co/LeKrTsrycthttps://t.co/H5OF2EGcnI

Quite the gamble."The daily dietary intake of garlic and its derived-products as an adjuvant therapy may improve side effects and toxicity of the main therapeutic drugs with reducing the used dose."https://t.co/J3lwsZhzPAhttps://t.co/hBgwOOQXcr https://t.co/qRY5snXy5R


But I won. It was a good bet.https://t.co/k7eWBTl8BD

I got stronger by fixing cysteine.I got healthier by eating the moon.I got happier by fixing my gut.But because of my dysphasia?You probably think I'm a loon.https://t.co/jL4QeRnDRs

Oh look, Glutathione (and by proxy, cystine supplementation) does improve "Isometric Strength"They used same style hand dynamometer I did.> "Maximal isometric strength and fatigue index were also assessed using an electronic handgrip dynamometer."https://t.co/liJbPfflJG

Look, I get it. We're not birds.But we can learn a lot from learning how metabolic function tied to gut bacteria seems to manipulate how animals decide to take risks. https://t.co/bz2Kb9NdDB

But you're right. I'm crazy about the moon.I'm not loon-y. I'm a lunatic.Easily confused.https://t.co/2BpdmXbLud

"Effect of supplemental dietary zinc on the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway in skeletal muscle and liver [...] Zn may contribute to the initiation of protein synthesis as a signaling molecule in vivo."https://t.co/oHiCgDsxWIhttps://t.co/JY8wWXZKM4

"Spontaneous cleavage of proteins at serine and threonine is facilitated by zinc[...] The presence of zinc may therefore significantly affect the long-term stability of cellular proteins."https://t.co/JNz2bNCov8Zinc is a moon agent, a lunatic.https://t.co/uwYzUMSrj1

Fix your gut, lmao. I figured out how to hit mTOR back in march 2020.https://t.co/rh6Yw6kr0I

So while everyone else is dosing up on Malaria drugs and synthetic antibiotics, I'll be drinking Kombucha, and eating zinc heavy foods. https://t.co/wpUPoGh1MQ and helping my gut bacteria produce erythromycin naturally instead of just killing everything off and getting psychosis.

And I just kept running.https://t.co/2srJBLw2tB

I fixed my gut. My gut diversity is literally maxed out on the Viome test I took. I have to find another way to measure it.https://t.co/F6PVzwmNOt

I took another Viome test on January 7th. Compared to my first one it's huge!It seems after a year I now have so much microbe diversity that it is 100% compared to low and average before.Similar for my "Biofilm, Chemotaxis, and Virulence Pathways" improved. https://t.co/VLT4ks4HVD

Our western diet makes us eat like a hibernating bear trying to prepare for winter. And our lived environment is one of sedentary torpor.https://t.co/Z95bEvWyX4

The entirety of western civ is sitting in air conditioned artifical caves, staring at low powered light boxes, and eating carbohydrates. Screaming at each other about how we need cheaper antibiotics. Scratching our heads about why we are sick and stressed.https://t.co/HPLFIDsN05

I encoded this idea in a song."Let's be r(evolution)ary"https://t.co/hD80TL6UsF

I have no idea what I'm dong.https://t.co/QfGy3USKTQ

Just so happens, I wanted to fix my sleep schedule. I was reading about a rare theory on human hibernation, and it reminded me about the serotonin/micochondrial metabolic stuff I learned about w/ my autism studies.Maybe we can do it via our microbiome?https://t.co/uS2COYNNjv

I'm just obsessed with this stuff, that's all.https://t.co/rWvokBLZRi

Fixing microbiome improved autism symptoms, even 2 years later. Study size of 18, all children, using FMT. They're going to try it in adults next.The question you have to ask: why does one dose not work like under C Diff? I suspect this is metabolic.https://t.co/TnA2rlmjwj https://t.co/CFOb6PIvCf


You can maybe get this without FMT, but it requires diet change and some aggressive fasting to kickstart your liver's metabolic signaling.https://t.co/LVyDF2LZKW

I fixed my autism symptoms by pretending I had metabolic issues associated with diabetes type II, of which gut microbiome was just one aspect. I suspect you can shortcut around the whole needing to eat poop for 3 months straight if you boostrap your metabolism via fast. But N=1.

"Thrombin is a serine protease that plays critical roles in both blood clot formation and anticoagulation."https://t.co/litmKxScRf

@ultimape whats your take on this: https://t.co/OhTGMvIsOg it seems like it lines up nicely with some things ive heard from you but it takes the position that things like fiber supplementation is like a bandaid solution maybe? i read it like a week ago so i forget lol

@dschorno Difference between wolves & bears is wolves keep eating meat & fat over winter, so they don't need to hibernate. I am taking that strat this year."Organ meat is the first to be eaten. Except in rare cases, all significant pieces of muscles are eaten." https://t.co/6YpHIYzsY8

@dschorno Yep, bones and hide also. Bones are mostly collagen, so is most organ tissue. Liver is a good source of vitamin A and is basically a vitamin-B shot. Can perhaps emulate this with with Nutritional Yeast + plants high in vitamin A, like the one in my header image.

@dschorno If you want to shock the liver into doing things to AhR to control lipids, then look into fasting's impact in this space."Activation of Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Dissociates Fatty Liver from Insulin Resistance by Inducing FGF21"https://t.co/IDJUz39iufhttps://t.co/V4nxJTvUH1

@dschorno There's something neat going on in a tightly knit metabolic loop that responds to cold-stress.I haven't' found the smoking gun yet.https://t.co/uG1UUqZEL9 https://t.co/cCvCY0fvsC


@dschorno Does the animal burn fat for warmth, or hibernate?Does the bird fly south for the winter, or does it stay put?https://t.co/4EK8dbmdN0

@dschorno We've got the thing backwards.https://t.co/cvIGzCebAh

I've got an itch to scratch.TRPM8 seems to play a role in our response to skin irritation.Cold makes me itch well before any of my skin has a chance to experience dryness. I suspect folk wisdom has the causal chain reversed.https://t.co/BwmDLSWUKU https://t.co/FZQgu8IqN4


@dschorno The liver is at the center of my family's pain disorder involved with TRP receptor signaling role for chronic pain.Hard to ask a bear how it feels to hibernate, but I bet it's miserable.https://t.co/hbg7qBJ6en
