What was the food ? Just interested if it was the classic gluten/dairy/sugar/processed/etc or something specific you would never guess

Thank you, I feel like the relationship between the gut biome and the brain have gotten mighty simplistic in the public’s eye.

Almost like the gut-brain-axis is a thing :P

Interesting, it looks like that product is plant stem cells. I’ll do more research, thanks!

I have to agree with Jadbal here. Frequented routes are usually clean and without loose rock, but that isn't because routes are only established on clean solid rock, it is because routes are cleaned and trafficked. I've seen local clean solid routes have access prohibited by the powers that be and develop lichen and plant life within several years. Least frequented routes are always the dirtiest. Just like a hiking trail that is being "rested for rehabilitation". It really does come down to whether the volume of routes is a significant portion of the ecosystem. I'd imagine in the western portion of the country where the geography is still young and abound with cliffs it'd be less substantial. Over here on the east coast is different, cliffs are few and far between and climbers flock to every square foot of cliff face to get their fix, myself included.

You may want to look into something called EXO|E, I know someone that had severe psoriasis their entire life and they used this and it cleared it right up. It’s still being studied but it works damn well from what I’ve seen personally

As someone who suffered with it badly for a few years, dealing with many doctors for it would also depress you.

Three years ago I weighed 122lbs. Adult male, average height, late-50s. I skipped breakfast and often skipped lunch due to ever-present nausea. Went through antacids like candy. Had IBS, reflux and other issues. Prescribed beta-blockers and domperidone which helped a lot with the nausea but not with the weight loss or appetite.

I'm a "Type A" personality but am not a particularly smart or talented person so I made up for it by working hard and worrying about my efforts. I was successful and was often recognized for my achievements but was ultimately laid off, along with my work friends in the same unit, due to economic reasons after almost 25 years with this organization. Finding work in 2020 with COVID was not possible. Essentially forced to retire. It took a while to adjust to the change in lifestyle but I'm quite fine with it now.

Without the stress of working I've gained 30lbs since being laid off. I can eat more meals and am now at a normal weight for my age and height. I now realize to what degree stress and anxiety were the cause of my digestive and IBS problems. I have a great doctor but I now think she was treating the symptoms and not the cause but I am who I am. I wouldn't have accepted changing my personal work ethic and effort even if it meant affecting my health. I realize now exactly what my personal traits were doing to me. I should have learned to chill and accept less than perfect.

I’d love to see the research that proves that, not just research that suggests it’s possible

I must have missed that memo. Apparently OP missed my comment too because I haven’t seen an apology or retraction on their erroneous claim after I provided up to date BLS data disproving their assertion. I expect nothing less from Reddit.

God, does that mean that if we feed him salad for a week he'll finally ask Robin out again?

>If you buy into the deeper theories with no basis in known reality (i.e. world governments are ultimately controlled by aliens) then your brain is telling your ego that you have more knowledge and power than the 99% of the population ("the sheep") and you are aware, while they are simply not intelligent enough to see, not as intelligent as you.

The irony is these researchers are displaying a similar bias - "we're more knowledgeable than people who believe conspiracy theories".

>It is caused by poor mental health.

It is not. There are many theories about the origins of IBS, and mental health is only one item on a rather long list. It's not even near the top of many lists.

So it's proven that mental symptoms come first is what you're saying?

Not OP, but one of the most triggering foods for me was artificial sugars.

The EPA said it's safe and only Putin loving magats would question the government.

Every single rock face I see is attractive to me, it just depends on how much time I want to spend cleaning a route. Sometimes it's a lot. There are only so many first ascents left on the planet ;)

It's a lot more than 2 in 1000. It's so bad that the CBC infamously wrote "Conspiracy theorists keep being proven right. Here's why that's dangerous."

That required more than a broken clock being right twice a day.

Tuskegee experiments. Lab leak theory. Russiagate.

Then you get the ones in the middle where the theory is an exaggeration.

Bush didn't orchestrate 9/11 but the government did try to cover up the real perpetrator (Prince Bandar).

Comet Pizza wasn't a venue, but we've had multiple sexual predators in very high places exposed since 2017.
