Preparing the Body - Diet to favor cerebral activity

The article initially covers the misinformation and disinformation regarding macronutrients in the pharma-industry. It is highly recommended to read.

Sugar is public enemy #1

Sugar (especially refined) is the worst thing to eat because it is a poison to your body.

It is a simple carbohydrate that is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, causing a spike in blood sugar levels. This can lead to a number of health problems, including:

• Weight gain: Sugar is a high-calorie food that can contribute to weight gain if it is consumed in excess.


• Type 2 diabetes: Sugar can increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes by causing insulin resistance. Insulin is a hormone that helps the body use glucose for energy. When you eat sugar, your body produces insulin to help lower your blood sugar levels. However, if you eat too much sugar, your body can become resistant to insulin, which can lead to type 2 diabetes.


• Heart disease: Sugar can increase your risk of developing heart disease by raising your blood pressure abnormally and bad cholesterol levels.


• Stroke: Sugar can increase your risk of having a stroke by damaging the blood vessels in your brain.


• Cancer: Sugar can increase your risk of developing cancer by promoting the growth of cancer cells.


• Tooth decay: Sugar is a major cause of tooth decay. When you eat sugar, the bacteria in your mouth feed on it and produce acids that can damage your teeth. This can also rarely result in decay of nerves in the mouth and worse consequences.

The worst part about sugar (and also many "anti-depressants" - more on them later) is instant gratification.

It is like putting a band-aid on a deep wound and telling that it'll heal. It will not.
Sugar intake triggers the release of dopamine - the 'feel good hormone'.

However, the sudden increase in blood-sugar levels are coupled with insulin, which decreases the amount of blood-sugar level, that dips down the already dropping dopamine level.

Continuous cycles of this leads to what's called the "Dopamine Baseline Level" increasing more than decreasing. This causes your body to get used to high levels of dopamine - which is directly related to happiness, motivation, desire for hard work, and good mental health.

Therefore, in a nutshell, the greater the sugar (high dopamine) intake, the more that the baseline bloats, so the tasks that felt rewarding are now way less rewarding. As a result, you now want more sweets to feel good than earlier, you want more 'junk food' to feel good than earlier, and so on.

The graph below tries to illustrate how it works.

(cis, unsaturated) Fats are good for you

Now that the sugar is our of our way, we are already very healthy. Now its time to gain healthy energy instead of the unhealthy one that sugar gives.

Benefits of unsaturated fats

• Improving brain function: Unsaturated fats are essential for brain development and function.


• They can help to improve memory, learning, and mood. They are directly responsible for the cognitive speed of your brain as they enhance the transmission of electric signals among neurons.


• Reducing the risk of cancer: Unsaturated fats have been shown to reduce the risk of some types of cancer, such as breast cancer and colon cancer.


• Improving bone health: Unsaturated fats can help to improve bone health by increasing the absorption of calcium.

Essential fatty acids (EFAs) like 'Omega 3', 'Omega 6' are crucial for cognitive (thinking, learning, remembering, logical analysis) functions of the brain.

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids that are important for brain development and function, and they have been shown to protect against cognitive decline.

Omega-6 fatty acids are essential fatty acids that are important for the production of hormones and other signaling molecules.

Cholestrol is bad for you!!.......................right..?

One of the biggest lies we've been told is that cholestrol is bad for you. You might've heard doctors say that it clogs your arteries and that you should avoid cholestrol at all costs.

Let me list the things cholesterol is actual responsible for.

1. Sex hormones - Testosterone (& derivatives) and Estrogen (& derivatives)


2. Reduces various types of Cancers


3. Protects brain from internal damage


4. Essential for many bodily functions, including other hormones' production and cell growth


5. Decreasing inflammation (especially the one caused by bad (shit) seed oils and our dear poison - Sugar)

Critical Note

When you eat a lot of carbohydrates (explaination coming up), the fats you eat are stored in the body as reserve energy, which realistically, in today's day and age, we don't need.

This localisation of fats (near gut and face in males, near thighs and over the time near mammary glands in females) is often indicated by low LDL (chemical that transports cholesterol and fat around) yet high cholestrol; that is, there's fat being moved around the blood but is not used, thus it often gets clogged in the arteries and bulks up as what we know as fats, in front of the belly.

Because doctors are trained by schools affiliated with Big Pharma (we'll talk about in a bit), their immediate reaction to this is to decrease fats and increase carbs (carbohydrates) in your diet.

Your body prefers burning carbohydrates because carbohydrates (including sugars) have high energy density than proteins and need less power to break down than fats. However, the energy gained from burning the carbohydrates is unclean energy and the side products are often bad for you.

When you start eating even more carbohydrates and decrease the amount of fat, all you're doing is keeping the old fat in its place and adding more fat to the pile, all while burning more dirty energy.

However, what the big pharma (+ google) does not tell you is that the best way to get rid of body fat and the cholestrol clog in your arteries, is decrease the amount of carbohydrates you eat drastically.

This stops the body from 1. Burning dirty energy, and 2. Start using up the fat reserve and start moving the cholestrol and fats with the help of LDL.

As we talked about fats being more energy dense and cleaner than carbohydrates, your body now burns fats without feeling heavily lathargic. This also unclogs the arteries because now your body is in a state of burning fats for energy and it needs as much fats as it can to burn and give you energy.

Some people unfortunately, are born with really rare genetic mutation where they can not digest healthy plant-based cholestrols/oils (sitosterol/Beta-sitosterol) from sources like Avocado and Olive and end up clogging it up in the arteries. Again, this is SUPER RARE and you probably do not have it unless you had to go to a doctor and the doctor said that to you.

"Food Pyramid" - the most successful business campaign

After what was said earlier about fats being essential and the only way to not have body fat and feel lathargic while also having a sane functioning non-brain-foggy focused mind is to drastically decrease the carbohydrate intake and increase the (healthy) fat intake, have a very close look to the pyramid.

What does it say?

Mostly eat carbohydrates.

Eat really less amounts of fats.

Eat less salt (more on that below).

Big Pharma's Deception

If this wasn't enough, lets look at how the "normal levels" of certain things in our blood have changed in just 40 years.

I have people running after me telling me that all of this is alright and that even if they (organisations) are affiliated with pharmaceutical companies, they wouldn't lie.

They said the same thing about our privacy btw. Yet here we are.

Preparing the body

Now that we have understood the reality of the necessary macronutrients and how we should not blindly let a company control our health, lets look at how do we successfully implement it

Lets go through how you can improve your diet step-by-step:

1. Cutting out the Sugar.


2. Calculating BMI


3. Blood test [CBC/Cholestrol/Blood-sugar/Sex-hormone]


4. Fulfilling your body's needs


5. Exercise and Yoga


6. Further steps
