As of June 30, 2023, the 16oz bottle of olive oil, after 10% discount is $366.30. There are 32 tablespoons in 16 fluid ounces. The recommendation is 1 TBS (tablespoon) per day. If I’m doing my math correctly here, $366.30 / 32 = $10.51 per dose, each day. c60 sounds amazing, but this price point seems prohibitive.

I think 1 tsp will do fine for most people. I am taking more because I have a genetic degenerative eye condition.

How do you feel about lyrica ?

I’m taking it for restless leg syndrome… I’ve been taking it for about five years. Now I’ve read that it can cause dementia…what are your thoughts & what else can I do to take care of the uncomfortable feelings, restless leg?

I don't know much about it, never having prescribed it. I would not be taking it, that is all I can say.

All I can say is my wife takes it along with all sorts else. As to whether she has dementia or not I cant say but it certainly along with the rest seems to change personality as it says on the side effects.

I forget if I mentioned it previously, I know I posted it on Steve Kirsch's substack because he takes dorzolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, for glaucoma. But a comment attributed to Ray Peat that carbonic anhydrase inhibitors were beneficial spurred me to look for such studies and I found this one in pubmed from 2016. I think it's a good avenue of research for antiaging, but I'm not sure if it's being pursued.
