Happy Thanksgiving! Your menu sounds great, especially the skullcap tea (I admit I’m envious because I don’t have any—gave my foraged skullcap away. Will harvest more next year!)

I bought some dried, bulk. The combination with rooibos is good and suntea, gentle steeping, gets less oxalate from the rooibos.

And Happy Thanksgiving to you too! 🥳🙏

I'll have to try that hummus recipe.

If you like apple cake, I like this one - it's mostly apples. https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/mostly-apples-apple-cake-recipe

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving to you too!

It might have been 1 1/2 cups garbanzo beans. Stuff like that is forgiving - make it taste good to you. I miss salt more than garlic.

I also like his Niatonin protocol - 1 or 2 times a week (500mg/20mg) as it is my defensive wall (unvaxxed and determined to stay out of medical situations.) Dmitry is trying his best to get the best for this tragedy but newest is not always best. Appreciate his efforts. Niacin apparently can reduce the glyphosate.

Thanks for your time spent looking at the product description for GPR109A on Pure Bulk. I do buy a few things like Glycine from PureBulk, and think they have good products and prices. Like you, I did find the writeup there on GPR109A questionable, and for some additional reasons. Not only is Dmitry Kats hard to understand in his explanation, I just found the product explanation unnecessarily filled with terms and conditions I've never before encountered, and thus suspect. Further, I don't like the supplemental intake of folic acid for any reason due to the health risks from accumulation of unmetabolized serum folic acid:

Also, Kats seems focused on effects of his product on "energy" and is ignoring the considerable time a body spends, (usually in the early morning before breakfast or other first meal of the day), burning free fatty acids and ketones, such that mitochondrial "energy" is not even a focus while the parasympathetic nervous system is allowing for repair and addition to the pool of mitochondria and other cellular features. I'm wondering if the effect on this every-morning time slot of our existence has been measured by Kats when he formulated his product. I'm allowing that the GPR109A might have a negative effect during the operation of what Dr. Stephen Gundry and Martin Brand call Mitochondrial Uncoupling, when these little organelles only produce heat and additional Mitochondria, and not energy (ATP) at all! Gundry wrote The Keto Code about this process of Uncoupling which is not focused on energy production at all.

Very welcome and thanks for your input. The uncoupling is part of the benefit for removing inflammation - it can be dispersed as heat.

He has seemed a little obsessed on 'optimizing' ratios - it all gets mixed up in the stomach with whatever else is down there at the time or added a little later. Internal chemistry is not super precise like in a test tube is my guess.
