One Radio Network, October 19th 2020 with Dr. Ray Peat

This was a fascinating show. There was a lot to unpack here, so if you have the time, take the 2 hours and listen to the full interview.

Dr. Peat talks about energy and structure, climate change, COVID, thyroid, bone broth, serotonin and much more...

-Energy and Structure in relation to the world today.
-How is good deep soil developed? Possibilities that were generated just by streaming of energy from the sun, being absorbed by the earth, in this stream of energy, there were substances like chlorophyll developed that were able to a capture the energy.

-Chlorophyll (acting like an antenna) captures energy/sun in a way that it removes Hydrogen from H20 and attach it to Co2, creating sugar. Following that idea that a certain structure tunes into the streaming energy, all powered by the sun, some by internal nuclear energy in the Earth, but this streaming energy such as red light -If you have right structure it will tune in and use this energy to build a new substance.
-This substance can run through another structure, in an animal, so that the energy put in from sun light, can be drawn out, just as much energy as plant it put in, to be utilized to create structures in the animal. As H returns to O2 forming water...

You start with H20 and Co2 it creates structures of plants and animals and all of ecology.

-How does this affect today's world?

-What has been going on for 100's of years, is people have been extracting TOO MUCH energy, destroying the structure, deforesting the continents, letting soil dry up and blow away, so that these stored structures and energies are being depleted.
-Most of West coast has been deforested, the old massive trees (pine, red woods, sequoia), and these trees use to store huge amounts of water and energy. With them gone, the moderating influence is lost.
-A result is the summers are very hot and the winters get colder. You get destabilizing weather.
-The deforestation is the main climate changer.
-People do not realize how important the massive living wood of a forest is during winter, when there is not much energy being captured from the sun
-If you look at Co2 concentration in N. hemisphere, it rises to a peak in spring time, as leaves flourish under the summer sun, the Co2 decreases by 4%
-A big part of the rise of Co2 during winter is coming from the trunks of trees. This is a metabolizing effect, like an animal, as these trunks turn into lumber they stop refreshing the Co2 put into the air. They also fail to humidity as they are using the energy.
-As we continue to deforest, expect warmer summers and cooler winters. Unless we spend the next 100 years reforesting.
-One benefit is since TOTAL Co2 is higher, this will help stimulate regeneration.
-These deforestation can affect weather through out the entire world
-Up until 1976 everyone was predicting the next "ice age", then after the 3-mile island nuclear incident, people were starting to realize the negative affects of nuclear energy.
-An article from the pentagon started the "planet warming" fear by saying burning fossil fuels and coal was creating a warmer planet, shifting people's energy away from nuclear energy. The pentagon depends on nuclear energy to make bombs.
-Since then no talk of the "ice age". It is ALL about the planet warming.
-Sun studying experts still think we may hit a mini ice age within 10-20 years

-What is up with corona virus?
-Look at warnings from Gates, Rockefeller, World Economic forum-- These meetings were about lock down and "educating" them on how bad it was going to be(creating fear) if a novel virus spread. This information was published to all world leaders.
-The contributing countries KNEW what to do when such a virus hit. Leaders were told to be VERY scared.
-Information was extremely exaggerated to create fear
-If they had been testing 5 years ago, like they are now, they would find similar mortality with people dying WITH a corona virus
-Essentially the only thing that has happened is a "fear" epidemic. Fear alone can make people sick
-There are some documentation that some hospitals added CV after death, to receive additional payments
-The high mortality is a result more due to treatment than CV.
-One doctor in Italy treated patients with low O2, while another doctor in Germany treated patients by venting right away. The Italian doctor had no deaths, the German doctor had 60% deaths.
-One used a scientific treatment, one used a "panic" treatment.
-PCR Tests do not show a novel, active virus. It just amplifies any trace of nucleic acid that resembles those in the virus. -Nobody EVER proved that the original sample was actually present in infected people
-50% of cases they could not confirm a pathogen, they may have died from "stress" induced pneumonia, which happens in old people..
-As far as connections between deaths and CONFIRMED COVID deaths, nothing is different than any other winter
-Exosomes DNA/protein/RNA--sharing of genetic information through out all of us. Virus has similar structure as exosomes. --Exosomes can be confused for a virus
-A Positive test should NEVER mean a positive "case". But, this is how we are measuring things...A positive case should be a sick person, not a positive test.
-Rising number of cases is a result with increasing testing.
-We have an epidemic of testing...

Questions...
-Broda Barnes discussed connection of thyroid and health. Used temperature to figure out hypothyroidism
-Cynoplus-T3/T4 1:4 ratio.
-Cynomel-T3
-Armour thyroid is good. Cynoplus is what Dr. Peat uses.
-Cynoplus is based on old armor thyroid, your body sees it as the same as a natural thyroid
-Oxygen TEST: Hypothyroid would use small amount of air.
- If persons was Hyper they would use air in 1/2 the time. You use more air if increased metabolism
-In reduced energy state, one has edema, increased BP, increased fat, and a colder body
-Big Pharma found that T4 was just as good as natural thyroid based on healthy young men (no women)--this is why medical doctors recommend Synthroid/levothyroxine/thyroxine over T4/T3.
-This was an inaccurate way to establish how thyroid works best
-Female have several times the issues with low thyroid due to estrogen blocking thyroid secretion.
-At some point medical people started testing iodine for thyroid function
-All of the women taking a good glandular were shifted to synthetic T4--creating hypothyroid again. In this group, the blood tests showed very few women were deficient in protein bound iodine, thus, the doctors said they were fine.
-This created the illusion of who is actually hypothyroid based on blood labs. From these measures only 5% of people tested for hypothyroidism, even thought the number was much higher.
-They soon found that iodine is irrelevant to understanding a healthy thyroid
-Medical world started to use TSH and created a number of what is healthy based on belief that 95% of the population is fine. Thus, the TSH "healthy" range are much higher than they should be.
-Dr. Peat has never seen anyone healthy that is 2 or higher on this scale.
-Healthy people should have a TSH below 1
-Too much T3 can create hyperthyroid -which is Stressful.
-Women are MOST likely to be deficient in T3, due to estrogen
-1/10 of 25mg tablet will give you an increase in 02.
-Women have the majority of migraines.--vasodilation is one of issues. Constricting arteries can help migraines. Serotonin increasing drugs can help because serotonin can constrict arteries, the problem is it also interferes with T3 and constricts the veins. It can stop pain, but it doesn't solve problems.
-Serotonin is actually high in migraine sufferers, as well as histamine.
-Thyroid supplements help as well as progesterone
-Skipping meals/low BS and/or intestinal issues can trigger headaches.
-Daily carrot salad helps to avoid headaches. Also decreases surges of histamine and serotonin. 95% of serotonin is make in gut, the lungs detoxify it. If you have a lung issue the burden on lungs to detoxify it increases. Serotonin recirculates.
-Giving people an antibiotic can get rid of headaches, due to cleaning out gut. carrot salad is a natural antibiotic
-When thyroid is low, digestion is slow, estrogen excreted by liver recirculates, increasing serotonin, blocking progesterone, increasing headaches. Carrot salad helps get rid of estrogen
-Any vinegar can work along with coconut oil or EVOO
-Coconut oil can activate thyroid function. Adding 1 T /day helped Ray lose 10 lbs.
-Smoked oysters are safe once a month. A can every day may be an issue.
-Best things for Type2 diabetes: Check cortisol. Metabolic syndrome very similar to Type 2 Diabetes. Make sure thyroid and digestion is good. Avoid PUFA since it blocks thyroid.
-What to do about hair falling out? Low thyroid. Thus, you lose Na and Ca. Consume high intake Ca to Ph, this will lower PTH, this will protect bones and hair. PTH inhibits mitochondria function.
-Also Vitamin D is needed for healthy hair follicules
-Idea of managing forest by getting rid of undergrowth is it viable? Indians used to manage forest this way. By the time we tried this, the forest had dried out, yet the forest are not the way they use to be. If you let them burn it burns the old trees and not just the undergrowth. Everything gets destroyed.
-What is up with panic attacks and anxiety? Anxiety increases with an inability to use glucose and a rise in lactic acid.
-Anxiety increases as thyroid function goes down. As thyroid goes down, you produce more lactic acid and less Co2. -Co2 suppressed excitatory nerves.
-Breathing very fast/hyperventilation will increase panic attack
-To help take slow deep breaths, bag breathing and taking baking soda
-Bone broth. If you boil a bone containing marrow for too long, it will make toxins, oxidized iron and make things taste bad. Use smaller nobi bones instead. ie oxtails
-Blood donations are good to help lower iron and getting rid of stress induced exosomes.
-How much pregnenolone in organ meats? adrenal glands and gonads are only glands with enough pregnenolone to make a difference--several mg per glands.
-Progesterone can stop male patterned baldness when used topically. Along with a HIGH Ca diet and thyroid.
-Sunlight will degrade vitamin e.
-Progest-e is safe at room temperature
-High albumin in blood usually means dehydration.
-Lipomas in animals and humans is a hormone imbalance--PTH and thyroid are main things. Check Ca to Ph --add cottage cheese, milk, or egg shells to animals diets. Dogs should be eating raw bones or dairy.
-Also adding some salt can help. Too much phosphate can lead to fatty and fibrous tumors.
-Why do people recommend Fish oil and Omega 3? It is all based on advertising.
-Used to be seed oils--market for paints made from these seed oils disappeared due to petroleum. Thus, they needed a new market. They were sold on the account that they lower cholesterol.
-PUFAs are associated with inflammation of arteries, degeneration of tissues and interfering with thyroid.
-Takes about 50 years for science to overcome advertising. WE are just reaching the time when people are starting to question the safety of these oils.
-Cod liver oil is only protective due to the very safe Vitamin A and D--not the PUFA oil. A tablespoon of CLO a day could contribute to degenerative issues.
-avoid BIG fish, as they have more toxic heavy metals--ie tuna. Sole and cod are lower in heavy metals because they are smaller.
-You should eat fish or shellfish at least 1 x a week for the trace minerals
