I wonder why do you think that? According to the website, unfiltered tap water is not really bad. Am I missing something?

dombesz | 1 year ago | on: Bacteria (and their metabolites) and depression

You probably have gut dysbiosis causing inflamation of your gut and inflamation leads to depression like symptoms. This doesn’t mean you have to eat keto all the time, but rather that you should take probiotics to restore your gut flora. This way, you can continue eating a balanced diet without allowing that specific bacteria to become overpopulated. The best for me was using Lactobacyllus subtilis HU-58 alongside low-fodmap diet. The low fodmap diet is a shorter period of 1 month, then it needs to continue with the RENEW diet for 3-6months to 1 year. This whole period needs to be supplimented with hu58.

Sorry for the bad formatting, apparently I cannot edit my comment on HN anymore.

  1. Go to System Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> App Shortcuts
  2. Click the small (+) button under the shortcuts table
  3. Choose/Type the following values in the modal:
    - Application: All Applications
    - Menu Title: Zoom
    - Keyboard shortcut: Command + Shift + M (My preferred shortcut)
  4. Click Save.
  5. Voila, now you are able to maximize any window, and pressing it again it goes back to its original size. A cool trick is that now if you hover the green (+) button on the top of any page you will be able to access that shortcut from there as well. It sits just under the "Enter Full Screen" menu option.

Apparently, this was an existing feature on older macOs-es. I used it a lot, but it has been removed as a default setting like ~8 years ago. But luckily you can still add this shortcut to macOs, this is the first thing I do when I get a fresh install:

1. Go to System Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> App Shortcuts 2. Click the small (+) button under the shortcuts table. 3. Choose/Type the following values in the modal: - Application: All Applications - Menu Title: Zoom - Keyboard shortcut: Command + Shift + M (My preferred shortcut) 4. Click Save. 5.

dombesz | 2 years ago | on: New work helps to explain how chronic stress can inflame the gut

The main problem is with stress + gut issues, it's a downward spiraling feedback loop. Stress causes gut irritation, gut irritation makes you more stressed. I suggest going to a gastroenterolog, that knows about gut flora restoration. Basically you'll get a Low-FODMAP diet for a month, then RENEW diet for ~1 year, but you will also get a bunch of special probiotics, mostly based on Bacillus Subtilis.

During this time the negative feedback loop is being broken, the gut will have a chance to recover and the symptoms should improve/disappear.

I am slowly finishing this diet and I have to say that apart from a few ups and downs, it helped me tremendously. I have much more energy during the day, less oily skin and hair, smoother skin on my face, and consistent stool.

dombesz | 3 years ago | on: Australia gives world-first approval for fecal transplants to restore gut health

I suggest you to find a good gastroenterologist who is familiar with gut flora restoration treatments. My dad had this reflux issue for ~10 years, and we are both on a 1 year low fodmap diet combined with probiotics treatment. I have to say this is the best improvement that happened in our lives. I was bloated and had digestion issues from a young age that followed me, but now that is gone. No bloating, and no digestion issues at all. Doc says, the gut new gut flora will get strong within 1 year and then we can resume eating everything.

dombesz | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: Longevity for your parents, what to do?

My granddad was a teacher through his life, going ~20km every day by bike for 40 years, in rain and even in the winter. When he became retired, he started physical work of farming crops, making hay for his cows for the winter. He lived for 92 years, while he was still able to walk around and take care of himself on the basic level. He got also a type 2 diabetes around his 80's, but wasn't prescribed metformin. I strongly believe the physical work in his retirement gave him the strength to be in a good shape in his late years.

It’s metal, because usually the predator’s livers can be really toxic. Humans only eat the liver of vegetarian animals, and eating the liver of a carnivore animal could result in death.

dombesz | 4 years ago | on: Omicron evades Moderna vaccine too, study suggests, but boosters help

100% agree with you. If it turns out that it’s so much less deadly than the other strains, we should definitely be positive about it and stop the fear mongering. But all you can hear these days, is that how so much contagious Omicron is, without mentioning the chance of being a lot less harmful. This biased representation in the news turns me into being a skeptic of all the media outlets, regardless of their political agenda.

On the good side, even the inventor of mRna vaccines, Karikó Katalin says that Omicron could end the pandemic if it proves to be less harmful.[1]

dombesz | 4 years ago | on: Lack of sunlight makes our cells store more fat (2018)

You are already adapted to the climate of Sweden, meaning you have a lighter skin and your body uses sunlight more efficiently, because it's scarce. This is epigenetics in action. This could be problematic for people who originate from a more sunnier climate and have moved closer to the poles in the hemisphere, or to people who don't go outside. Their body expects more sunlight, however they get less, which could trigger more fat storage.

Yeah, the majority of Dacia models doesn't even come with an air conditioning by default. It's extra, but you know what, I like the idea that it can be left out :)

dombesz | 5 years ago | on: New coronavirus losing potency, top Italian doctor says

I wrote down the reason why the virus is “getting” weaker. There is no explanation of the phenomena in the article, the doctor just talks about what he experiences without an explanation. Social distancing alone wouldn’t help us, we also need the herd immunity, otherwise the virus would just flare up randomly the second we ease the restrictions. The mechanism I mentioned helps us to achieve herd immunity with time. I don’t understand why is that getting downvoted... Meanwhile I found the article: https://www.tillett.info/2020/04/05/a-solution-to-covid-19/

dombesz | 5 years ago | on: New coronavirus losing potency, top Italian doctor says

Not exactly, there was a series of articles from a virologist here on HN (cant find it), the idea is that he wanted to infect people with the less deadly corona versions so we all gain immunity. This would prevent a lot of casualities. This idea also works the same way in nature, as in the less deadly virus can spread more, because it produces milder symptoms and even no symptoms. This means you are more likely to catch a milder version, which leads to the fact that the virus becomes less dangerous, as deadlier strains will fade out quicker. This does not mean we need to let go the social distancing at all, but on the other hand we have to reach herdimmunity at some point, preferrably without too much casualities.
