#gelatin #spirulina have a #zinc imbalance

12.19: summary:
. I'm trying for a more paleo diet,
so my plant-based protein sources
have moved from legumes to spirulina;
while my animal-based protein includes gelatin
in order to balance the eggs, whey, and meat .
. I found this diet was too high in copper
relative to its natural supplies of zinc,
so I studied the available supplements
and decided on a glycinate chelate .

11.9: web.cook/hup/when is it needed?:
intro:
. in studying when huperzine (hup) is needed,
I'm wondering if the reason for it (confusion, forgetful)
was because I was depressed,
or otherwise in some condition that would be
assisted by the cheaper tryptophan .
. hup is an acetycholinesterase inhibitor;
so, is depression related to acetycholinesterase excess
or other causes of acetylcholine deficits ?
12.18: conclusion:
. there needs to be a balance between
dopaminergics and cholinergics;
increasing both equally
leads to good cognitive function;
and, there are several pitfalls
that are degrading one or the other,
including drugs and infections .
. the need for acetylcholinesterase inhibitor
is often due to low-grade infections
within the prostate or teeth,
that are leaking into the blood .

Collective Unconscious vs Godhead

12.18: news.relig/god/Collective Unconscious vs Godhead:

NeuroSoup`Collective Unconscious vs. Godhead
. this video talks about levels of tripping,
first there are mere hallucinations,
then telepathy and oneness with things .
. entering the Collective Unconscious
will give you an appreciation for all religions
by experiencing their languages
and getting an understanding of their symbolisms .
. finally there is the Godhead experience
which couldn't be explained
but from the sum of the video
the point of the title is that
sometimes the god itself is confused with
things the god merely provides
such as Collective Unconscious,
and synchronized messaging for telepathy .

in another video god is explained:

#quackwatch mineral supps deemed useless

/#quackwatch mineral supps deemed useless:
editorial by a medical journal:

"Fortmann et al reviewed trial evidence to update
the usa's Preeventive Services Task Force recommendation
on the efficacy of vitamin supplements
for primary prevention in community-dwelling adults
with no nutritional deficiencies .
[ and no mineral deficiencies -- notice that .]
. after reviewing 3 trials of multivitamin supplements
and 24 trials of single or paired vitamins
that randomly assigned more than 400,000 participants,
the authors concluded that there was no
clear evidence of a beneficial effect
of supplements on all-cause mortality,
cardiovascular disease, or cancer ."
". the only supplements not gaining in popularity
are beta-carotene (some uses increased lung cancer)
and vitamin E (some uses increased all-causes mortality)."
"... mineral supplements are ineffective for
preventing mortality or morbidity
due to major chronic diseases."

. since most cancers happen to the elderly,
cancer could be considered to be
"morbidity due to major chronic diseases";
so, the editor of this journal
seems to be asserting that
mineral supplementation would prevent no cancers .

you want my wot?!

11.4: pos.cyb/net.mywot/you want my wot?!
. after I found out I really need to
integrate mywot into chrome browser
in order to post reviews of sites;
I was not so sure I felt safe
having them read my every link;
and, with malware so good at cracking any site,
what is the purpose of a service like mywot
that pretends today's safe site
is likely to be tomorrow's safe site ?
12.15:
. simply trust who you have to;
and have separate virtual machines
for each level of trust;
eg, have at least these levels:
# banks,
# the pit for everyone else .
. when I want to use my bank,
I restart my chromebook
to have its verified boot flush the malware .
