Anything that is \"Inflammatory\"<\/strong>\u00a0is nevertheless ~ a signal yet to be interpreted. \u00a0Though in \"What\"<\/strong> contexts, from \"whose\"<\/strong> perspective, and \"How\"<\/strong>\u00a0in terms of methodology ~ all these may yet \"best\" remain as an individual Self-Enquiry. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

DISCLAIMER
\nYou are reading someone else\u2019s in-depth account\/s of nutritional & life intervention\/s spanning across ONE YEAR; covering everything from nutrition, psychology, supplementation and fitness training. All intertwined into both socio-economical and self-scientific (explorative) perspective. This is NOT a light reading.<\/em><\/h6>\n

1 \/ 4<\/h1>\n

Coming to terms with the \"What\".
\nParanoia + Apprehension = Total Loss of Self Authenticity.<\/h3>\n
\"Trip

Trip to memory lane ~ LDN. \"Other\" prescriptions not shown.<\/p><\/div>\n

Recalling many years ago (before Keto), various unexplainable inflammations from gut all the way to the spine persisted weeks to months on end. Under several practitioners' convictions (back then when I was earning \"comfortable\" income) suspected me I had severe fibromyalgia<\/strong>. Then consequently ~\u00a0Anklyosing Spondilytis\u00a0<\/strong>due to my genetic \"BLA-27\" <\/strong>propensity. I sincerely believed back then, my authenticity of \"health\" is in \"good hands\".<\/p>\n

Consequently, we\u00a0all knew what the \"solutions<\/strong>\" were. Nexiums, PPI inhibitors, Low Dose Naltrexones, \u00a0more \"checkups\" and and more \"recorrections\".<\/p>\n

I feared that my life was no longer mine, authenticated<\/strong><\/em>. But to be instead \"serviced\"<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0by someone else's.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yet many years later \u00a0living life completely against the grain, through all these years of self-experiments as frownful and appalling they may be ~ I no longer faced any of the above horrific pains besides my eventual L4\/5\/S1 degeneration. Each time this happens, my trust in N=1 self experimentation amounts greatly into surviving episodes I thought were not possible. CKD+IF 18 to 20 hours of fasting. \u00a0Alternate Day Fast + PSMF<\/a> + <1500 per day<\/a> starvation calories. Recently surpassing the lowest glucose reading in my own personal history ~ just shy off one figure point close to death<\/a> (supposedly). All these ~ I felt -\u00a0were over and done with.<\/em><\/p>\n

This realisation taught me, despite I am no doctor nor \"decorated\" with abbreviations ~ that\u00a0paranoia<\/strong>\u00a0can indeed be forgotten or surpassed. Yet also somehow it remains indirectly\u00a0reminding<\/strong>\u00a0~ at times most inconvenient, and\/or unexpected.<\/p>\n

Here is for \"What's\" ~ it's worth.<\/h4>\n

The body is a beautiful mosaic. Comprising of numerous self-compensatory \"chaos\" to withstand all biases of inputs. I'd call it homeostatic chaos. Whatever it does, it does so \"reasonably\" self-compensated. \u00a0Yet prescriptions are prescribed for a reason. Overriding everything else; for \"just one\" purpose only. Kill the culprit, and \"stay\" that way.<\/p>\n

Let me first disclaim I am not entirely against \"drugs\". There are many, often masquerading as \"supplements\" that admittedly, though only in my own N=1 perspective years thus far ~ do remain essential to compensate the stress of IF, Keto, and\/or CKD included.<\/p>\n
