Or you could get a conductometer and measure the purity yourself.

More or less immediately, as far as I can remember. I used polarizers from an old LCD display.

I guess it would work with one filter as well.

I once made glasses that made me see polarization. It made plant leaves look beautiful.

I think the more important question is, if even insects can be this smart with their tiny brains, what the hell are our huge brains for?

Why? It seems to be the only theory that actually fits the evidence, unlike SENS and similar nonsense.

That's nonsense. Please get tested by a real doctor.

As far as my knowledge goes, that seems to be completely made up.

Those are the signs of deficiency, not overdose. What made you think you suffered from copper overload?
Re:Copper is key in burning fat

Nonsense. It only happens after prolonged massive intakes (A man who intentionally took 60mg/day for a year and 30mg for several years before that is one of the few examples found in literature.) and the signs are liver and kidney failure. It's completely unrealistic you could get that much from anything resembling normal food, vegan or otherwise.

Getting too much copper is virtually impossible unless you have a rare genetic disorder. The excess copper is excreted in bile. The defficiency on the other hand is widespread, it doesn't show in the blood tests and the symptoms are both vague and insidious. (Chiefly a constant lack of energy, brain fog and incurable anemia)

This "project" specifically. It conflates ɾ and t and it ignores most non-english IPA letters.

It only works for English. Any other language seems to get mangled into English-like syllables.

Stop spreading misinformation. 65% is well within historical norms. People commonly ate that much or more, oils and meat used to be expensive.

"the body can synthesize glucose" is a horribly misleading statement. The body can create glucose only by destroying protein and the amount it can create is limited by the buildup of toxic waste the process leaves behind. It's absolutely not the same thing as the body synthesizing vitamin A from carotene. You will be much better off eating carbohydrates, and 45% may be still too little.
