Call for an Home Made Test with Food

[Somic67]

Hi everyone.

I wish to involve voluntaries for an Home Made Test.

It is based on this personal experience: every time i eat liver for dinner (alone or with a few light vegetables - es. cucumber - never had for breakfast or lunch) after digestion i feel better that after any other food for the entire night (until the next morning pill and the breakfast).

I know that liver (and entrails in general ) are s called super foods (it has B vitamins, good fats, all amino acids easily absorbable) but I'm curious to know someone else experience.

Who wants to try, pls share here your outcome or let us know if any food makes you feel better than any other

Beef liver?

[Somic67 in reply to laglag]

yes, but also goat and chicken worked well

Do you experience a reduction in tremors or other symptoms?

[Somic67 in reply to Hidden]

while OFF: more energy and general well being; easier to move and better movement control. (I never had tremors)

Perhaps you're deficient in a nutrient that liver provides for you to feel the noticeable benefit - could be copper, b12/b9 (more bioavailable), heme iron, etc. Eating liver improves your liver functions, so you should definitely keep up your continual consumption as long as you enjoy the taste and notice benefits. Try to get organic liver or calf liver to avoid accumulated toxins. I enjoy liver occasionally but my taste buds tell me I had enough when I overdo it. You might also want to try an active B formulations to see if it has a similar effect, such as PE B-Complex Plus.

Might be the choline. Note that choline consumption is associated with increased risk of certain cancers (e.g., prostate); and there's a theoretical risk of cardiovascular disease due to TMAO production, but see:

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/285...

That said, I take a CDP-choline supplement since I am more worried about neurodegeneration than cancer or CVD (and I don't have a prostate and I eat a very low sodium diet). I may switch to alpha GPC.

Hi Rhyothemis

On the base of your input above I've done some research on choline and CDP-Choline and this is what have found

thank you again and regards,

(now the job is to convince my neuro to go for it)

I had forgotten why I had chosen CDP-choline and that video was the reason - thanks so much for the reminder.

She discusses Lactobacillus casei Shirota & I recently started taking a shot of Yakult each day, though my constipation is pretty much fixed by eating teff porridge. I still use miralax also (which by itself doesn't do much). I think the Yakult might help a little bit with sleep and anxiety, too - but just a bit. I stated taking Yakult since a small study found it reduced the rate of respiratory tract infection.

How much CDP-choline do you take?

do you get any benefit from taking CDP-choline?

thanks for any reply

[Rhyothemis in reply to Somic67]

250 mg on empty stomach in am

Don't know if it specifically is helping

I just go by the guide lines my grandmother passed down,from a time when you decided on your meals and planned weeks ahead.

Liver eat every two to three weeks . Organ meats: heart, liver kidney etc , are very high in important nutrients but should be considered as delicacies and not over consumed. If you are getting extra energy from liver try beef heart , We always stay away from tripe.

[Somic67 in reply to GymBag]

thank you for the remark.

i agree with your grandmother (grown, i guess, when the meds were rare and health was a 80% family care, not delegated for "profit")

as for vit B1 there is an upper limit for every food given by our body condition, how much and how often and the quality of food.

Too much can be bad as too few.
