A furry on an animal-ful diet

Thanks for stopping by 🐟

I'm a 22 y/o who is really passionate about health.

My entry to valuing good health has come about very early in my childhood. My parents are notably athletic and their unusual enthusiasm for nutrition and sport has been both scarring and healing. I could only begin to fathom about how unique it was and thereafter what has it changed in the course of my life.

I have been rock climbing for the better part of my life, starting climbing on rope at 4 years of age. A couple years later, I was rock climbing in nature.

The work of the other parent, a well regarded pharmaceutical co. senior official, resulted in me trying lots of food. The sweets I was not allowed though kids around me were having, have made me miserable at the time.

After long periods of preparing quinoa, lintels and buckwheat, my nearly vegan, vegetarian diet with lots of soy protein, is now replaced by an almost flawless carnivore diet.

Feel free to approach :3

A little teaser. Lower T, higher bet

As promised in my last post, I have taken regiments to stay keto and lower T. Shockingly it is made doable with new science. Lipid raft science.

To give background, T is made from cholesterol and while things we thought were harmful, saturated fat, animal cholesterol (classic example is the vilified egg and bacon, of whom egg has been shown to be indifferent to cholesterol levels in the blood after consumption!!).

However, many people are gauging their eyes to new discoveries regarding life itself. The new emerging data shows living cells (human cells perhaps in particular) have varying functions in swaths of surface area around their membrane. While it was widely agreed different components: keys, tunnels - locks and receptors, all surround the cells; we can definitively say heterogeneous areas called lipid rafts, fatty splotches encapsulating our cell, allow functions like interfacing our (the hormone) Vitamin D, Estrogens and possibly countless other fatty bits and pieces to exclusively function and contribute. In fact, this mechanism is so vital to my interest, in that, according to Biology PhD Anthony G Jay, sex hormones are by definition made from fat! And this is where cholesterol comes in! While cholesterol itself is a fatty substance that participates in the raft goodness, a foreign bad actor, Phyto Sterol or "Plant cholesterol" presumably takes place of our good friend. Have a look at how similar the the two are!

These fibrous buggers stay long in the body and are thought to take place of healthy cholesterol in lipid rafts as well as put the breaks on *drumroll*

Creation of Testosterone!!!

- and disturbing the behavior of lipid rafts ... Of course.

So my plan was simple. Make a controlled measure with a similarly fat adapted keto diet, including all food I had previously consumed (minus the red meat, but I'll circle back as to why soon), just adding leafy greens and fruit! I didn't even limit the amount of veggies and greens I would include. My choice was *8* high expense Mediterranean Keto Diet cook book recipes (Nick Norwitz being a co-author) and the cooking was delightful.

Avocados, peppers, kilos upon kilos of European imported cheese and olives, and kilos of Cauliflower! All this, not to spoil but SHBG was . . . where there was smoke there became fire I'll just say. After that week and a day or two I fasted and my diet has now consisted of the majestic parts of carnivorou (incl fish, sea food and dairy as before). And to top it all of Boron and Zinc are in full show.

So to summarize, I have tested for low T, whether or not related to the diet, the upcoming post will reveal what the intervention is possibly controlling!

Also my E2 is like eww, high. So femboy odour is still fishy :3

This 'Safe' Supplement Can Damage Your Brain | Dr. Josef Witt-Doerring

Ashwagandha is marketed as a safe, natural solution for stress, anxiety, low testosterone, and brain fog. But what if it’s not as harmless as you think? In this video, I explain why ashwagandha can act just like a psychiatric drug, altering brain chemistry and hormones in powerful ways. I cover how ashwagandha affects neurotransmitters and the endocrine system, and how it can cause emotional blunting, mood instability, and persistent sexual dysfunction. I’ll also talk about a growing group of people reporting long-term damage from this supplement- something now being called “Ashwagandha Syndrome.”

Benzodiazepines are a class of medications that slow down activity in your brain and nervous system. They're most often used for treating anxiety and related ...

Benzodiazepines, colloquially known as "benzos", are a class of central nervous system depressant drugs whose core chemical structure is the fusion of a benzene ring and a diazepine ring. They are prescribed to treat conditions such as anxiety disorders, insomnia, and seizures.

[carnifur]

Should I be worried? I have had prescribed a low dose SSRI before but barely took it. Now after over a year of Ashwaganda (root 400mg) and in the past three months on over a gram of it, per day. I am not sure I can necessarily relate with most of these described symptoms on it. I do not know if I will have withdrawal symptoms though. 🙄

[carnifur]

Tbf after some almost two weeks, I barely feel a single change in my mood having cut the Ashwaganda dose to full stop. I guess sleep could be a little better but beside that, all is well.

I recommend others to probably use Ashwagandha monthly or in lower doses for a mere couple of days at a time. It did make me calmer I have to admit

Boron time!!!

All my wishes culminated, I have a year worth of 10mg Boron and have access to the SHBG, E2, Free T blood tests. I am really excited to finally commence a huuuuuuge T boost with simple lifestyle intervention first. I was thinking making myself a salad of some sort and I had a low carb cake (kept my total carb through the whole day under 50 grams!!!), just to get all the anti-nutrients to deplete me of as much relative testosterone increase as I can with the upcoming dairy free carnivore intervention.

Also exciting is the prospect of increasing my exercise load, what is also said to increase my T. I would always come to the gym and either warm up very carelessly, lift some weights or climb some routes with varying success (though better than the average person) and then go back. I am going to add a Sauna regiment, take a pre-structured plan and go from there. I was considering doing infrared but the cost and whatever local havoc there is with foreign packages arriving I decided I can keep my morning and evening sunbathing routine in check, and get similar benefits, seeing how I am barely in my twenties :)

Would love to share what others experience.

Up until now

I haven't been fully on carnivore for longer periods at a time exceeding 60 hours. I am going to get my blood work checked incl hormones minerals and vitamins and go full T.

I was thinking, zinc no longer being washed by anti nutrients and fiber, I could finally get my Testosterone boosted. For about 3 weeks I have been also intermittent fasting with 2 meals between 07:30am - 04:00pm, so an 8.5 hour feeding window. Some people go with less but I will see how I feel. And I will start cycling my Ashwaganda with a new Boron suppl. I have been taking 1290 mg of the root powder in pills in the last afternoon meal. My cycling of Boron will look like: 3 weeks of Boron Glycinate 10mg + Ashwaganda 430 mg. And according to the "PMID 8875519" study, the men from a wide variety of ages, boosted, on average, their T by 2 times with 459 micro moles of Zinc (30 mg if I did my calc right)

So while Stanfield's multivitamin has a small amount of Boron and Zinc, a 25mg suppl I found online should also help.

So that's my journey I.g

here is what I look like on Keto (carn + avocados + handful of fruits and saturated-fat-rich nuts)

Yo! What's got you on carnivore? Anthro / Furry art yay or ney?

Hey there!

Well, I’ve struggled in the past with some health problems and tried many different diets like Vegan, vegetarian, keto and gluten free. Unfortunately, none of these left me feeling my best. I learned about carnivore a few years ago after fervently searching for something to cure angular cheilitis naturally. I was sure it was an internal problem as opposed to external, so I tried it out hoping it would help. Long story short, it did and I decided to switch for good. So far, I feel great!

While I sometimes admire other peoples abilities to draw furry/anthro art, I could never achieve it because I can’t really draw other animals that well. Horses and regular old humans are my thing. (Although I find anime girls with cat ears to be cute, but you didn’t hear that from me! Lol)

Thanks for asking! I didn’t think many people on Tumblr knew about or were on carnivore. I hope this answers your questions!

Just Started this Diet #carnivore #diet #weightloss #HealthyLiving

[carnifur]

Honestly though, this is such an admirable mentality. I was under the impression #tallow was less valuable than #cocunut oil as it produces less Aldehydes and LOPs but turns out tallow is much better for the hormonal balance and brain function because plant fats like CO have Phytosterols which fight for the same receptors and functions of an important Hormone precursor, Cholesterol, they end up damaging our brain cell' lipid rafts and impair creation of hormones!
