circadian walk
going on a 20 to 40 minute walk between the times of 6:30am and 9:30 am every single day
rotational movement
moving the body especially repetitive rotational movements like twisting at the torso, open up fascia which is everything. tight fascia constricts bloodflow. no blood no life.
good digestion
avoid foods that make you feel bad, and avoid PUFA as a rule. ray peats food rule: perceive think act
scalp massage
10 minutes minimum everyday. studies show a scalp massage massively lowers cortisol and blood pressure.

ive been peating for 6 years and im not gonna even mention any of the 200 supplements ive bought because none of them are close to being as beneficial as the things listed above... maybe except aspirin 80mg.

once you hit 25 stop caring about gym optimization and more about these things. i know you youngbluds just wanna mog but the greatest mog is feeling good in your body all the time. :redpill: everyone around you sick and hypothyroid so good health is the easiest mog

why avoid PUFA
 
why avoid PUFA
PUFA blocks thyroid function at every step of the chain. Peat explained that unsaturated fat first hits you in the gut — it blocks the digestive proteolytic enzymes, impairing protein digestion, and when it reaches the thyroid gland it inhibits the proteolytic enzyme needed to form thyroid hormone. It doesn't stop there. Circulating in the blood, it keeps thyroid hormones from being transported on blood proteins, and when it gets into the cells it blocks thyroid's action to stimulate respiration — then the polyunsaturated fat degrades and produces reactive oxidative fragments that are toxic to cells.


PUFA is estrogenic — without any estrogen present. Circulating polyunsaturated fatty acids intensify estrogen actions: they release estrogen from binding proteins, making it more active, and activate estrogen receptors and imitate the actions of estrogen. Dinkov adds that PUFA is estrogenic in nature and stimulates the synthesis of cortisol, putting you in a chronic stress reaction.


PUFA is responsible for the bulk of inflammatory disease. Dinkov puts it plainly: PUFA is a central theme in the metabolic theory — very little good can be said about them, and they're responsible for about 80%, if not more, of any inflammatory reaction you may have.


It oxidizes inside your body even when it arrives fresh. Peat described a vivid experiment — he put a rubber tube into a bottle of corn oil and watched it respire almost as fast as living tissue, sucking water up as it oxidized. The lesson: they're very prone to oxidation and going rancid — even if they are not rancid before you eat them, they will go rancid inside your body. Fish oil is much more unstable oxidatively than even ordinary corn oil. And there's no workaround: even if you eat the most perfectly fresh PUFA, by the time it reaches your stomach it's deteriorating, and when it gets into the tissue it's farther along.


Burning PUFA blows holes in your mitochondria. When you burn polyunsaturated fatty acids, you blow holes in the side of your mitochondria — it's a major, major problem. The broader consequence: we are constantly subjecting our bodies to an unprecedented, uncontrollable amount of oxidative stress, and it just destroys life. Dinkov explains the mechanism: PUFA increases reactive oxygen species (ROS), a sign of decreased activity of the electron transport chain complexes — electrons build up with nowhere to go and attack molecular oxygen inside the cell, creating superoxide anions and hydroxyl radicals.


The peroxidation byproducts are implicated in Alzheimer's, diabetes, and kidney failure. All of these PUFA peroxidation byproducts are fairly toxic — studies in recent years have shown several are implicated in Alzheimer's, kidney failure, and diabetes.


PUFA accumulates across your lifetime and mirrors your metabolic decline. In the 20s, when growth slows down greatly, the rate of accumulation of PUFA in the tissues accelerates, so that by middle age people have a very high content of tissue PUFA, which increases further into old age. Peat saw this as a near-perfect inverse relationship: as that lifelong accumulation of PUFA continues, the metabolic rate is like a mirror image of the PUFA concentration — the baby has very high calorie consumption and heat production, but by middle and old age heat production and caloric requirements are much, much lower, so you tend to get fat unless you sharply reduce calorie intake.


It ends in a cold, demented brain. The brain starts assimilating PUFA and forming cholesterol esters that accumulate, ultimately slowing metabolism — so that by the age of 30 or 40 it is causing aging symptoms to set in, progressing with the onset of a cold brain, Alzheimer's disease, and dementia, as the cholesterol ester content of the brain becomes extreme and blocks metabolism progressively. Peat was specific about the mechanism: the degenerating, demented brain has a very high level of polyunsaturated esters of cholesterol, lowering the free cholesterol in the brain and impairing all of the metabolic processes that free cholesterol should participate in.


PUFA in skin accelerates aging under sunlight. In one experiment, dermatologists shaved rabbits and exposed their skin to sunlight — one group fed a diet high in polyunsaturated fats, the other only saturated fats. The skin of PUFA-fed rabbits wrinkled and aged very quickly under ultraviolet light, while the saturated-fat rabbits' skin did not react.


PUFA drives the fat tissue of obese people. Dinkov notes that if you take a sample from the fatty tissue of a very obese person, it is predominantly composed of PUFA and MUFA — with MUFA being about 80% or more of the composition and PUFA the remaining 18–20%. Multiple studies across multiple ethnicities all show the same thing.


Saturated fats are the antidote. Dinkov explains the contrast simply: saturated fats have no double bonds and are very stable to oxidation — not subject to radical attack — which is proven by the fact that coconut oil, close to fully saturated, can sit out in the open even under intense sunlight for two or three years without going rancid. And anything that PUFA can do in terms of negative effects, saturated fats can reverse.
