AdLucem

  Aside from my perceived dissonance of the term "biohacking", I will reluctantly continue using it, until I find a better one. Lately I have explored the avenue of the cardiovascular component of health, longevity and cognition. In doing this, things I have modulated are, what type of fats I use in my foods and in what quantities. I have also thought about post prandial lipemia responses and how to mitigate or optimise this. But doing this in an investigative manner. I don't assume it is entirely bad, but it may well be given certain contexts. So this is an open endpoint for me as of yet. I have paid some attention to the postprandial state, in energy, well being, cognitive performance. In a way I have not concerned myself so much with the glycemic response, and ketones, fasting or postprandial. Although this is important and central biomarkers of metabolism. My concern has been more to focus on cardiovascular fitness, blood flow etc. I have therefor chosen to somewhat r...

I could easily eat two if I don't watch   it.    Macadamia nuts, by themselves, are great. A good amount of monounsaturated fats, low in carbs, low in amino acids (Good to perserve semi fasted state, in smaller quantities).  They are even included in the food product Prolon (at least as it was formulated 2020),  the fasting mimicking product created from the research on fasting mimicking, from Walter Longos research.  Macadamia nuts works well as a ketogenic food. But as those of us aware calories of certain foods, it gets pretty obvious that it is easier to overeat on fats than on protein or carbs on a ketogenic diet. But now to the point. In excess, macadamia nuts take up too much space of your days nutrition. Moderation is important. S...
