Microdosing Psychedelics & Gluten Free Vs. Low-FODMAP

• Once again… if you have gut issues with grains, it’s usually more about “FODMAPs” than it is about gluten: “Gluten restriction in irritable bowel syndrome, yes or no?: a GRADE-assessed systematic review and meta-analysis”…06:01
• Guess what? That expensive parasite cleansing system that you are using might have something called Mimosa pudica in it. Basically, this ingredient makes a bunch of long mucus threads wind up in the toilet (which look like rope worms but aren’t): What Are Rope Worms? Are They Even Real?…14:47
• How cardio might actually help you grow muscle: “Can cardio (eventually) make you bigger?”…22:24
• There is “compelling theoretical evidence to suggest prolonged and repeated micro-dosing may cause valvular heart disease (VHD), and only weak survey evidence that it provides the benefits microdosers typically seek, such as enhanced cognition, or relief from depression and anxiety”: “Safety First: Potential Heart Health Risks of Microdosing” — risk is particularly associated with repeated microdosing over several years, attributed to the strong binding affinity of microdoses like LSD or psilocybin to the serotonin 2B receptor (5-HT2B)…29:55
• Why you’re waking up at 3 am (and how to sleep through the night more consistently): “Why Do I Wake Up at 3 am?” — or, for a less scientific approach, here are all the “spiritual” reasons you might wake up at certain times during the night: “Spiritual Meaning of Waking Up at 1 AM, 2 AM, 3 AM, 4 AM, and 5 AM”…38:35
