Eating meat, supplementing with creatine, and consuming choline sources like egg yolks, liver, or meat can optimize methylation. Checking homocysteine levels and monitoring overall well-being are key indicators of effectiveness. Creatine is mainly stored in muscles, but also present in the heart, brain, and testicles. Vegetarian muscles have lower creatine levels than omnivores, suggesting a potential need for more creatine. Research supports creatine's benefits, challenging the notion of plant-based diets being superior for health. Intentional diet choices, including vegan or vegetarian diets, are respected, but many individuals returning to meat cite health issues. Creatine supplementation protocols involve saturating the body with creatine, costing minimal daily expense. Experimenting with creatine is beneficial, especially when adjusting protein intake. Carbohydrate inclusion (around 125-150g/day) has shown hormonal benefits, with sources playing a crucial role. Personal experiments with carbohydrate intake may vary in outcomes but are vital for optimal health.
On today’s podcast, Paul shares some new things he’s been experimenting with lately including eating more heart, supplementing with creatine, attempting to incorporate white rice as a carb source, and most excitingly, the launch of his new company: Lineage.
