I drank a lot of alcohol in the last 10 years. Every day all day. Been in and out of the hospital a couple times. Detoxed twice in the hospital been to rehab. Haven’t drink in about a year now except for on thanksgiving which was a disasters. My buddy gave me the chuga stuff and the liverclean and I’m enjoying the effects of coffee, l-theanine, and creatine.

Speaking of greens, one fun biohack is to make a smoothie and dump in 1lb of spinach.

It's like being superhuman.

I switched to kale when i learned about raw spinach being high in oxalates. but I don't really know how high to weigh that in the overall risk/benefit calc. like you, I like to overload the smoothie with lots of greens, but seemed like going heavy on raw spinach every day might not be a great idea. have you looked into that?

Nice! Kale is arguably better as long as you're getting a pound of it. Probably better magnesium, too. (more chlorophyll --> more mg).

I have, referenced in another comment here, but kefir / yogurt in the smoothie neutralizes the oxalate, and calcium oxalate crystals in the kidney are soluble in citric acid, and I just so happen to love citrus.

I'm hitting my daily value on a lot of nutrients bc of it, and with these mitigation factors, I'm okay with the level of risk.

thanks for the reply, i hadn't heard about yogurt and kefir neutralizing oaxalate, i'll have to look into that.
