New registrants: if you try to register you will get a message that we are not accepting new members. Due to the limitations of this forum software which is not designed to deal with incessant CIA harrassment, we have no alternative but to disable automatic registration, and then we can't change this automatic message. Your account needs to be created by admin before you can post in the forums. Because otherwise, almost all registrants are CIA sock puppets. To get a forum account you need to send a brief presentation email to loohanforum at gee mail dot com, also suggesting a user name. Then we can enable you manually. But before you even do that, take a look around the forum and my site and decide whether you REALLY WANT to join/post, before you jack us around. Most seemingly genuine people who apply fail to even ever log in once to change their password after we go through the work of creating a membership for them. Then we must quickly delete their account again lest the CIA has intercepted their temporary password. And of the few who do change their password, most still never post. Maybe they realize we are too weird for them, I don't know. They get real quiet, never to be heard from again.

GLOSSARY: Sometimes unusual terminology or abbreviations are used that with some luck you might find defined here.

Mercola disinfo?

Mercola is an interesting CIA cyborg. He still has a certain partial credibilty even to me because he does seem to put out a lot of truth and even often promotes actual humans and their theories.
But he also promotes the CIA's Ray Peat
https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Ray_Peat
stuff. Which is perhaps partly true, but probably only a fraction. Sorry, no white sugar, aspirin, and steroids for me.

Now he's promoting a CIA RC with more startling non-conformist notions. From his newsletter:

The Case for Eating Lots of Starchy Foods
This is one interview you'll want to listen to from start to finish - possibly even more than once - if you want to really understand what's behind your health issues, and why about 95% of Americans are metabolically unfit. Pull up a chair and get ready to have your diet beliefs challenged to the core.

Reductive Stress — The Hidden Culprit of Chronic Disease
https://articles.mercola.com/sites/arti … tress.aspx

Sorry, i USED to eat lots of starch. After i gave up grains, i ate a lot of starchy veggies. I even grew parsnips. But over time i gradually lost appetite for much starch.
A year or 2 ago i bought some organic parsnips. They tasted OK but the extreme starchiness was now repugnant to me, and i couldn't eat them.

Re: Mercola disinfo?

Well i just listend to a 1.5 hour Mercola vid
Oxalates — The Hidden Dangers in 'Healthy' Foods – Interview With Sally K. Norton
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Evgi9EcyIwE
only because i am a big fan of Sally Norton.
I did not WATCH it and don't know if i missed any juicy hand signs.
He seems so sincere, warm, idealistic, principled etc. but this is a CIA cyborg and renowned huckster. And it's hard to know when the truth fades out and the disinfo starts.
He claims that if one's gut is truly healed, starch becomes the ideal food, and the gut organisms can handle much more oxalate, maybe as much as 1 gm per day. And he's coming out with a super probiotic product to help heal the gut to enable this.

Oddly for all his seeming intelligence, around 1:06 he makes a really dumb statement that any 7th-grader (or less) should recognize: he says that even in a pressure cooker water boils at 212 F. (Sally can be forgiven for not catching it in such a fast-paced interview.)
But
https://durathermfluids.com/pdf/techpap … -point.pdf
says that at 12 psi and 16 psi water boils at 242 and 252 F, respectively. And wikipedia says

Most pressure cookers have a cooking (operating) pressure setting between 0.8–1 bar (11.6–15 psi) (gauge) so the pressure cooker operates at 1.8 to 2.0 bar (absolute). The standard cooking pressure of 15 psi gauge was determined by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1917.

Moreover, he is partnering with ATHENA

a CIA business with only CIA RC Leadership.
