I bought anerobically fermented bean (usually they are aerobicly fermented) from Brooklyn coffee roasters. Different taste for sure...like old banana peels. But not entirely unpleasant.
Hmmm I wonder if those taste different than this other brand I found that uses some sort of enzyme fermentation method

My posts are a pretty exhaustive list that one can learn a lot about food and health
If youāre not familiar with the āFrench Paradoxā it is essentially a āparadoxā where experts are dumbfounded that French people seem to skirt death relating to heart disease given the amount of saturated fats they consume (Among other things like smoking and consistent drinking (not binge drinking))
I like Saifedeanās take on experts who come across something that flies in the face of their claims, they just write it off as a āparadoxā.
Iām sure there are a few things going on here, but above all else Iām sure thereās probably just something to be said about how protective against heart disease the consumption of saturated fats are.
Many other countries (France, Germany, Japan, Korea, etc.,) are much heavier smokers than The U.S., but they seem to have far less incidences of heart disease as well.

Are you saying that fermented coffee brewed or fermented beans have this effect?
In this case I was referring to fermented beans that are then brewed.
There is also coffee kombucha which would be more like already brewed coffee being fermented, which should still yield a similar effect, but my guess is it would have a different taste and also the method by which you make kombucha there would be alcohol produced by the ferment. Like 0.05% so itās generally not considered an alcoholic beverage.

I may have stumbled upon something that cracks this coffee conundrum wide open.
As I have previously mentioned the fermentation process of plants makes them edible for humans because the fermentation process āpre-digestsā the components of the food (starches, sugars, **plant toxins**, maybe some other stuff) making the the plants more easily digestible for humans.
This is the mechanism that makes sourdough bread less glutenous than regular bread. The sourdough culture is eating the gluten.
As I was sipping on some kombucha (fermented tea) this morning I was thinking about how thereās less caffeine and less sugar in it because of this fermentation process. (Caffeine is a natural-occurring insecticide that is eaten up by the fermentation process)
Then I thought, āI wonder if thereās fermented coffee?ā
Lo-and-behold, fermented coffee is a thing and it contains 90% less caffeine than a regular cup of coffee making it more easily digestible. Because of this it removes a lot of the bitterness from the flavor as well making the taste more pleasant when consumed black.
That said, I liken coffee to one of those bullshit green smoothies, where itās just a highly potent plant-toxin juice that you couldnāt possibly get a similar dosage from by simply eating the actual vegetable - or coffee beans in this case (Yes, one of the earliest ways coffee was consumed was chewing the beans with animal fat. I think it was the Mesai? or some other African tribe).
That said, I imagine that the probiotics are damaged in the actual brewing of the coffee, but the caffeine content is reduced which still makes it more easily digestible and not so bitter.
Maybe if you cold brew the beans you can maintain the probiotic benefits? I donāt know I literally just thought of this and spent like 30 minutes looking into it.
Be well, my friends!

It was common for slaves to have worn clothes of linen woven with wool.
The people who made their clothes knew exactly what they were doing.
Despite these being typically quality soft fabrics that get softer with time, they were described as extremely uncomfortable.

In our modernity, the type of fabric you wear can be the difference between sickness and health.

Polyester is the seed oil of fabrics.
Labels with either of these should illicit a knee-jerk reaction of extreme disgust.

Why do I wear Birkenstocks to the gym?
Alexander the Great wasnāt wearing some fuckinā Hokkas when he was conquering Persia and terraforming the earth.
He was between bare feet and wearing the Leonidas 7ās which were presumably some pure leather sandals.

Easy gut nourishing breakfast:
Crack a raw egg into a mug. Scramble it with a fork.
Heat up some bone broth to a steaming hot temperature and pour it over the egg. Scramble it again.
Add a some cultured raw spring grass butter and some Real Salt.

I wore contacts from Junior Year of High School to Junior Year of Uni. Within that time I remember my eyesight getting slightly worse each year. Then it stopped when I switched back to glasses.
I have a theory that you can improve your eyesight naturally and glasses effectively handicap that process. But with contacts the microplastics absorbing directly into my eyeball probably degraded my vision more quickly.
