ANECDOTE

Microdosing Retatrutide For Appetite Control

  • Ben describes microdosing retatrutide (about 0.25 mg/week) to suppress appetite with fewer side effects than full doses.
  • He sources it from a vetted company and mixes it into bacteriostatic water for subcutaneous microdoses.
ADVICE

Prefer Protein-Enriched Processed Options

  • Choose protein-enriched ultra-processed foods to reduce calorie intake and increase metabolic rate when you must eat processed options.
  • Look for high-protein bars, liquid protein shakes, Greek yogurt, jerky, or tuna packets as better gas-station choices.
INSIGHT

Wild Diet Rapidly Shifts The Microbiome

  • A six-week all-wild-food experiment produced large, rapid shifts in the gut microbiome and increased microbial diversity.
  • Some ancient bacteria spiked and persisted, but full hunter-gatherer microbiome restoration likely requires longer changes.
