Making your own sauerkraut is one of the best ways to accomplish this and also address gut health. Much better homemade as store bought can have most of the beneficial bacteria cooked out of it.
[How to make Sauerkraut 101](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=at8xumffvgc) - Off Grid with Doug and Stacy
A medium size head of cabbage in a 32oz wide mouth jar takes about 1-1.5TBSP of Redmond's sea salt for me (just need to make sure there's no iodine, pink salt also should work, and as she says in the video, you can taste it to make sure it's just the right amount of saltiness), kept in a jar for 14-20 days and then in the fridge. You can test it at various days to get it however strong you want it.
Also nice to have sauerkraut glass weights, along with a masher stick and fermentation lids that let the air out so you don't have to open them daily.
This makes strong fermented cabbage, only take 1 spoonful at a time starting off, it gives a feeling kind of like alcohol but different. One of my best anti-depressants.

Just FYI, most nicer grocery stores do sell live culture sauerkraut, usually on a cooler shelf somewhere. It's really really expensive though, around $1/oz.
If you aren't sure if you like sauerkraut, you could try that once before buying a fermentation crock, weights, jars, etc.

I've bought that stuff before and it's still not the same. I say go straight for the homemade, cabbage is cheap and all you need is a single Mason jar, I've never bothered with crocks or other special equipment.
Instead of weights I use something like a shot glass under the lid of the jar that presses down and keeps all of the cabbage below the liquid when I close it.

Is there literally anything backing up this 'anti-estrogen foods' nonsense beyond "some cheap, totally anonymous website told me exactly what I wanted to hear"?

I wrote a comment response to a study about Indole-3-carbinol, which is what they're talking about.
Turns out that shit is in most common vegetables and this is just a other weirdo post that boils down to "if you aren't insane, just like, eat fresh healthy stuff". Which is honestly what every single schizo diet post on here boils down to.
I genuinely think we have a lot of people who gave themselves brain worms over diet obsessions. I picture some of them in a restaurant finding something in their meal has tofu in it and then threatening to beat up the manager because they think their dick will catch fire if they breathe the estrogenated tofu fumes.
Then they go home and blow their super manly high testosterone load into a rag, alone.
> Then they go home and blow their super manly high testosterone load into a rag, alone.
See, that’s why you should be on one of conpros schizo diets. If you were, you wouldn’t be blowing your load into the rag alone, you’d be blowing it through the rag, and into your hand where you can then eat it for the extra protein for the subsequent sick gains brah.

>Indole-3-carbinol is formed from a substance called glucobrassicin found in vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, collards, cauliflower, kale, mustard greens, turnips, and rutabagas.
Oh. I see. It's *this* again: Someone acts like they discovered the Fountain of Youth and then it turns out what you're losing your shit about is just "eat normal healthy stuff". So no you don't need to chug your sauerkraut smoothies. Just like... Eat green veggies. Which of you actually needed to be told that?
And I dunno I guess I'm secure enough in my masculinity to not be in mind-bending stress that my testicles are going to dry out and fall off unless I keep my precious bodily fluids pure.
You people treating your kitchen like it's a pharmacy are insane and you need to recognize that there's a line that you need to draw between making an effort to just do right, and obsession. Much like how both bodybuilding and working out both involve the gym, but one of those is for people with weird body image hangups who end up chugging chemical cocktails and look like bloated tryhards.
It's weird how I kind of totally agree with you, but also disagree.
> just "eat normal healthy stuff"
I mean, yeah. That really is what any good diet boils down to, particularly when softened into a manageable and sustainable form. Carnivore is kinda cool and all, but it's seriously easier to just eat steak with butter and broccoli. Cook at home with reasonable quality ingredients and you're eating healthy. I bet a diet of "Don't eat anything that comes out of a box" would perform great.
There are a lot of things that have a core of truth, like "compound X in food Y has proven to do Z", but realistically, Z is influenced by so many environmental factors and bio-feedback mechanisms that no amount of eating Y will change the game dramatically. So just, you know, eat your vegetables.
>You people treating your kitchen like it's a pharmacy are insane
That's where you begin to mislead, though. What we eat is important, so much more important than we think. For pretty much any problem you're struggling with in your body, mental or physical, the kitchen should be the first place you look. The solution may be simpler than we think (eat home cooked meat and vegetables) but thinking critically about the most effective tools for improving health isn't unreasonable or a waste of time. Especially when the ultimate prescriptions end up being things like "here's a tasty way to cook beef liver." I just sense some mistargeted derision.
I dunno, maybe we're in agreement, and just using different tone.
The issue I have is that this place loves to cherry-pick "the science". Science it doesn't like is "jew science". Science it does like is "the truth". What doesn't help is when a lot of that is coming from some incredibly shady sources and some laughable websites that I honestly can't believe people are taking seriously.
For example, OP claimed cabbage 'reduces estrogen levels by 50%'. No, it doesn't. That's completely fucking made-up. Nothing anyone can show anywhere would even begin to suggest that that's true.
But more to the point, the whole diet thing really does border on a religious-like lunacy, *and I'm probably being unfair to others about this*, but there absolutely have been some of the more schizo members of this forum sharing things that are creepy and weird.
On the more innocent side of things there's the crazy 'alchemy' stuff. Where they'll "believe science" when it comes to complex molecules and how they interact chemically with your body, and it's sharply contrasted with the belief that modern medicine is 100% fake and that you can cure everything by rubbing fermented goat shit on your infected wound... weird "way of the ancients" shit.
This goes further to the more insidious side of things, where you'll see people posting fucking voodoo garbage about aligning chakras and how drinking your own semen will boost your testosterone and unlock your mind. I really wish I saved that post (I definitely did comment on it if you cared to spend a fucking hour trying to find it) to prove it was real, but you do see posts like them pop up. One dude posted his 'health guide' and it got to the front page and it had a ton of health advice and hidden inside it was straight up drinking your own urine and semen.
This drives the question to me of what the point of it is. Health is a spectrum, but the not-very-secret part is that staying on the "healthy" side of that spectrum is incredibly fucking easy. Eat right, don't overeat, go the fuck outside and sweat and get some sun. God damn that right there is going to keep you at a healthy weight and mind. But that gets you to like 90% 'healthy'.
Where it veers into crazy-land are the people who have, like, internalized the idea of 'goyslop' so hard that they are in endless pursuit of that "100% healthy" ideal, and are probably actually harming themselves in some way to achieve it, and for what? You probably won't actually feel any better. You're definitely going to die, and you probably aren't going to live much longer than you would've anyway, since longevity past 80 is nearly entirely genetics.
It doesn't take much to begin doing shit like colon cleanses from there.
That's why I used bodybuilding as an example. Bodybuilding is incredibly *unhealthy*. It looks healthy. You look like a fucking adonis. But guess what, there's a reason why hardcore bodybuilders are nearly all dead by 60. Even if they wanted to be 'natural', I've definitely got one firsthand story of a guy who got badly injured and couldn't work out, lost his physique while his back was healing, and then was so upset about the amount of work he lost, he started juicing to 'make up for it', and he turned into a swollen mutant. Look at people like Steve Jobs. He was in pursuit of the '100% healthy' and he functionally killed himself with his stupid diet, because he didn't fall for "jew science".
So, I think "90% healthy" is where happiness lies. You aren't pushing yourself so hard that you're incapable of enjoying life, and good food is part of that. You end up doing stupid gay shit like eating raw livers.
**EDIT:** Also, am I the only one who gets a weird creepy feeling that there's an unspoken obsession with cum and the testicles in some of this. Like some of these dudes who are... *really*... into 'boosting T' are also going shopping for special underwear to air out their balls so they can blow huge loads and that's their metric of 'manliness', which I alluded to with the comment earlier about jerking off into a rag.
I dunno, it's some kind of 'vibe' I get, especially with the overblown horror at the thought of a phytoestrogen being in their food.

if you poke a hole in the bottom of a medicine bottle and add a small bit of tubing looped over (so the "top" of the tubing is pointed downward) and then poke it throught he lid of a regular lid, you can make a simple "bubbler" which allows trapped fermentation gases to escape without letting air in. just fill the medicine bottle with water and make sure the water doesn't travel up the tubing and out (which can be a bit trick sometimes).

Also, do you know if this recipe is any good for other kinds of pickling? I tend to crave pickles in the summertime (better than gatorade when you're dehydrated if you ask me)
Pickles usually have vinegar and sugar as well, so you want to look up the ratios for a vinegar brine.
It's super simple you just dissolve the sugar and salt in warm water and add the vinegar. Then add whatever it is you want pickled to the jar and and pour the pickle brine over it.
If you're fermenting pickles, the bacterial culture should make the vinegar itself as a byproduct of it's metabolism (that's why you use salt brine, it helps to encourage the bacteria you *want* like L. Plankstron and not the ones that will kill you horribly like E. Coli, lol).
you can certainly just soak pickles in a vinegar/sugar brine for a few weeks if that's what you want, but traditionally, the salt brine and maybe some spices were enough.
Oh good, it does include peppers (my general rule when it comes to spicy food: if you don't regret eating it the next morning ont he toilet, it's not hot enough)

Cabbage is like lettuce, but Aryan
our german ancestors have been eating saurkraut since the iron age, and they are amongst the healthiest of the european races for a reason.
that hamburger though looks atrocious, i dunno what kind of burger he was making but these days i'm punching my wallet for some quality Wagyu burgers (they're expensive but BOY they are GOOOOOOOOOD)
and on the rest of the weekend i just eat onions and mushrooms from the farmers market (they're relatively cheap and nutrious, packed with testosterone as well)
1 year ago9 points(+0/-0/+9Score on mirror)1 child
Its healthy because of both. the fermentation just brakes it down and allows your body to get more nutrients from it with less digestive effort but cabbage alone is surprisingly nutritious
Red cabbage is better and im not sure if white cabbage has the chemical in it which op is talking about. I thought it was just in red cabbage

technically you can if you forgo all the useless shit you buy in the jewpermarket
though i agree for a middle class guy its virtually impossible to eat this daily, maybe once or twice a week with a side of sauted mushrooms and peas
and i'd have that and still buy all the "excessive" foodstuffs like high quality barrel-aged wine and italian sparkling mineral soda (san-pellgrino/perrier) which comes in glass bottles (haven't drank from plastic in ages)
it is REALLY expensive to avoid goy-feed these days, but proper nutrition is the one thing i'd never skimp over.

In Europe "Soda" just means sparkling water
In america Soda means "sugary carbonated goy syrup beverage"
though i agree with you on (((Nestle))) unfortunately they literally own ALL the beverage companies (like they have competing brands who are owned by the same kikes)
if you're really and i mean REALLY hate those kikes there is a [Georgian brand](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nabeglavi#Product) of PREMIUM sparkling water called Nabeglavi
tastiest sparkling water i've ever had and it wasn't even expensive, but its extremely uncommon to find and if you're in the USA... **good fucking luck**.

Yeah I used to spend a bunch of money on alcohol. I slowed my drinking to very occasional and it fixed that. For fizzy drinks, get a sodastream and the gear to fill the bottles from co2 tanks you can get at the welding supply. Fizzy drinks for years, and you can put in whatever flavor you want, no bullshit ingredients.

>soda stream
I cheat and add dry ice directly to the bottles (sodastream bottles have a pressure release of some sort in them that keeps them from bursting. You can reuse old soda bottles or use glass bottles if necessary, but make sure you don't add too much dry ice unless you wanna clean up a mess/dig chunks of glass/plastic out of your flesh.) I throw the bottles into a pre-chilled cooler after adding the dry ice and cover it with a blanket for safety while it works its magic, then put them int he fridge after im sure they aren't little soda bombs, lol.
i was extremely doubtful until i actually read the ingredients list
https://www.heb.com/product-detail/sodastream-kombucha-concentrate-passionfruit-mandarin-16-9-oz/5538006
though your average (((sodastream))) ingredients do contain surgar or corn syrup if not picked the "healthier" option
https://www.heb.com/product-detail/sodastream-ginger-ale-drink-mix-14-8-oz/5538027
in the end of the day its still unnatural ultra processed crap, i'd rather just make jugs of ice-tea at home

Oh I don't buy their mixes, I mean add your own to pure water and carbonate. Like a touch of juice or ginger or whatever. The device can carbonate anything.
Take the fat out, and you're left with just beef. So things like wagyu burgers make no sense to me. You can create your own wagyu burgers by adding tallow to regular beef.
Save your money and buy angus or something like that
Just buy 73 27 from a tube. If you are wanting thin, well done burgers it turns out the best. If you want thicker burgers that are medium rare, go for like a 87/13 that was ground in the store and dont work it much. If you want a thicker burger that is fully cooked, go for 80/20 that was ground in the store and dont work it much
I read somewhere that eating parsley with eggs (especially boiled) is a sort of -one-two punch to boosting testosterone. Supposedly, the parsley has chemicals that help your fellas convert the cholesterol in the eggs into testosterone.
I've been doing a pork/mushroom/cabbage stew in my crockpot lately. It's super simple and makes a week's worth of dinners for one for all of a few minutes of prep work. Recipe:
~1.5lb chopped pork (other meats also work)
1lb chopped/sliced mushrooms of choice
1lb chopped onion
2lb shredded cabbage
1 large can condensed cream of mushroom soup (thickener/umami booster)
1 box chicken stock
2 tbsp italian or bavarian seasoning
1tbsp black pepper
1tbsp salt
If you're feeling extra lazy you can just buy everything pre-chopped, dump it in the crock, give it a stir, and let it cook on low overnight. I would suggest adding the cabbage last and after the stir because it takes up a lot of space but cooks down nicely.
Oh for sure. This is 100% a "there is no excuse not to eat healthy" recipe. I find it makes it a lot harder to justify doing a goyslop run when you have a batch of this cooked up and ready to reheat and eat.
Half a head red cabbage, one red onion, one apple, hand full of dried fruit; Blueberries, sultanas, raisins, currents - or your choice really, big desert spoon of jam, I prefer a tartish jam like Quince, equivalent spoon of honey, dash of red wine vinegar and just enough water to keep it sticking to the pot (about 1 cup).
Shred and slice the cabbage, onion and apple, chunk size is up to you I prefer a nice fine shred.
In saucepan, preferably heavy bottom, melt butter, sauté the onion until clear, add in the cabbage, sauté with onion until wilted, add in apple, repeat again, about 5 minutes total. Add in the other ingredients, except the water and mix through, season with salt and pepper, add water, cover with lid, reduce heat to medium low and simmer in pot turning occasionally until everything is red and sweet - about 30 minutes although you can leave it on a low heat or slow cooker for up to an hour with no issues.
Best served with fatty/savory meats like roasted pork belly, lamb chops, or chicken/veal schnitzel, the sweetness of the fruit and onion impart an amazing flavour to the cabbage with also gives a fantastic colour and cuts through that fatty richness of your meat.
Cheap as fuck to make in bulk and will keep in the fridge all week, I haven't tried freezing it yet as I generally eat it within the week of making.
I assume the making of a more brine like cooking process with more vinegar and salt would allow for some level of canning in a Fowlers/Ball jar.

A medium size head of cabbage in a 32oz wide mouth jar takes about 1-1.5TBSP of Redmond's sea salt for me (just need to make sure there's no iodine, pink salt also should work, and as she says in the video, you can taste it to make sure it's just the right amount of saltiness), kept in a jar for 14-20 days and then in the fridge. You can test it at various days to get it however strong you want it.
Also nice to have sauerkraut glass weights, along with a masher stick and fermentation lids that let the air out so you don't have to open them daily.
This makes strong fermented cabbage, only take 1 spoonful at a time starting off, it gives a feeling kind of like alcohol but different. One of my best anti-depressants.
**The gut is the 2nd brain and this is it's best medicine, the jew fears the home cabbage fermenter**
You can use this same method to ferment almost any vegetable with great results, just look up a fermentation brine chart.
