Hi everyone,
Great to be here! I'm a 30yr old male living in southern Ontario. I've been following the forums for a while and I just decided today to jump in. I discovered Ray Peat about two months ago after stumbling through paleo/ WAP diets and a lot of supplements that were only somewhat useful. I have to admit, at first I thought Peat was crazy or just another health blogger with an agenda but I decided to keep reading when it occurred to me that I couldn't buy anything from him even if I wanted to. After doing some research and reading his articles it became clear that Peat is the genuine article. A real "beautiful mind" type, humble genius. Now after a few months of reading and peating, I'm very much encouraged and inspired.
My fiance thought I was crazy at first but - after all the high protein, zero-sugar diets we've tried - she was pretty game when I started making home made jello and came home with 3 quarts of haagen dazs every time I went to the grocery store. Now we're thriving on a peatarian diet. I look and feel better than ever and I can't remember the last time I had a migraine. Her asthma is greatly improved with the help of NIR light every night. The more we research and experiment, the more I think Peat is really on to something here. At this point I'm interested in moving on to reading the works of other scientists who may fall into the same vein as RP. I'm thinking Gilbert Ling or Gerald Pollack. If anyone has any suggestions then I'd love to hear them :)
Anyway, I'm excited about joining this community and I look forward to chatting with you all in the future!
