I have been reading MWD dmso series and purchased some.
I have been using it, randomly.
About once a month I have about a tablespoon in water orally. For all the reported benefits, I think it might be helpful. I do it on the weekends, Saturday morning, because it dies produce the garlic/oyster odor.
I have some eye floaters and have started to put it topical around my eyes after reading about that. I am looking for a new borosilicate glass container to keep it in. I basically do 50 50 mix with distilled water.
Nothing notable on the vision or floaters yet, I have just done it about a week.
I have a few spots on skin that I am putting it on. One mole I have in the past put haidut melonon on and it keeps it under control.
I then decided to do it on my entire face. I have nice skin with small pores, no wrinkles save for a few fine ones starting around eyes (60yrs, so acceptable I guess).
Right around the side of my upper lip though I have an area that I thought I was starting to see aging skin with the pores a little larger. I put dmso on several times at night. I also had just gotten a beef tallow lotion with Manuka, calendula, and niacinamide. The pores are noticeably smaller. The skin more hydrated. I am not sure if it is the dmso, lotion, or combination. But I am thankful.

This product is a recommendation from Tamara Rubin “leadsafemama”. Her testing is saying it is non detect for heavy metal.
I linked to it from her email about the product, so if there is a affiliate code to her, that is not intended.
There are dissenting voices to her work, I am not sure where I fall in beliefs of her or not. Especially after reading the Pierre Kory info on minerals. I am currently trying to figure that out. 🤔 so much info, so little time. I try to defer to Ray Peat abd keep it simple.
My supply of incandescent lights is almost gone.
I cannot do led.
Has anyone found an alternative that is acceptable?
Ray said a bright light first thing you wake up is needed, cited a rabbit study. I am lagging in remembering Peat info- have had some years of little time to keep up.
Ai response to my query:
Ray Peat and Bright Light Therapy
Overview of Bright Light Therapy
Ray Peat emphasizes the benefits of bright light exposure, particularly in the morning. This practice is believed to help regulate various physiological processes, including mood and metabolism. Bright light can suppress melatonin production, which is linked to improved energy levels and mood.Rabbit Study Insights
In studies involving rabbits, it has been observed that exposure to bright light can significantly impact metabolic functions. Specifically, bright light helps restore the activity of cytochrome oxidase, an important enzyme in mitochondrial respiration. This restoration is crucial for energy production and overall cellular health.Benefits of Morning Light Exposure
Regulates Circadian Rhythms: Morning light helps reset the body’s internal clock, promoting better sleep patterns.
Enhances Mood: Exposure to bright light can reduce symptoms of depression and improve overall mood.
Supports Metabolism: Bright light therapy may enhance metabolic rates, contributing to better energy utilization in the body.
In summary, Ray Peat advocates for the use of bright light, especially in the morning, to support metabolic health and improve mood, as evidenced by research including studies on rabbits.I use ruby lux near infrared A bulb in my brooder lights. In morning, and then in winter when I get home from work. They are warm and feel good. But I am thinking I maybe need a different bright brooder light that is full spectrum in morning for what Ray Peat was talking about.
What light bulbs are you using for incandescent and brooder?
I love the Midwestern Doctor info. It seems to be old school, the same as Ray Peat was.
For salt I use diamond Krystal kosher salt and Maldon sea salt. Years ago atom bergstrom recommended diamond Krystal, saying it was very pure. If “leadsafemama” info is legit and accurate, both of these salts test Clean. The diamond Krystal website says it has less sodium by volume.
“Diamond Crystal® kosher salt was developed over 130 years ago using a craft evaporation process that creates unique hollow, multifaceted salt crystals. Unlike other kosher salts, Diamond Crystal® does not use additives nor mechanical compaction and it’s still crafted in the same facility it was originally crafted. It even contains 53% less sodium by volume compared to table salt”
There is a documentary , Fantastic Fungi.
Also a documentary, Fantastic Fungi
For fascinating fungi info look for interviews with Paul Stamets, here is a blog post on lions mane.
