Some say, that space and time are simply two sides of the same coin.

That's what I think too.

Much easier said than done, for millions of people.
Granted, I have made tremendous progress since being diagnosed in 2010. I've lost over 80 lbs, recovered from being fatigued all of the time, gained metabolism and newfound energy to want to do things, etc. But it has not been easy.
There can be other complications to people's health that will greatly impact a low-carb diet, no matter how amazing that may be. I still appreciate you sharing that for others to know, in any case.

> supplementation of serine and glycine can help avoid neuropathy
I ran the study through chatGPT and this is its answer:
> The study suggests that supplementation of serine and glycine can help to avoid diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The study also suggests that a STT, similar to an oral glucose tolerance test, could identify patients who are particularly susceptible to sensory neuropathy and that normalizing circulating serine levels via dietary supplementation could delay the onset and progression of sensory neuropathy in diabetic mice. However, it is important to note that this is a study conducted in mice and more research is needed to confirm these findings in humans. Additionally, the study raises several key questions that still need to be addressed.
To tackle that last point about several key questions, I asked chatGPT to elaborate further:
> provide 5 examples of the key questions raised
> Why does serine and glycine deprivation suppress hepatic fatty acid synthesis and gene expression in the liver?
> What are the exact mechanisms by which diverse sphingolipid species contribute to neuropathy?
> How can the neurotoxic dyslipidaemia be managed?
> What are the diverse genetic changes that influence circulating serine and glycine?
> How does diabetes-induced rewired hepatic metabolism influence deficiencies in serine and glycine?
I am not a scientist, doctor, or whatnot, but I think it is fascinating if using chatGPT to analyse this kind of information may prove helpful in some way. Diabetes is incredibly debilitating and I hope we can solve it in our lifetimes, so anything one can do to foster further research, discussion, and all that is welcome, imho.

Reply to Eli5: When listening to music with headphones, how are some sounds only on the left or the right earphone? by JustTransportation51
Modern audio recordings are recorded in stereo (having a left and right channel). The headphones replicate these sounds appropriately.

If it goes down in price you would call to buy it at the lower price, not put. No?
