    See, now that is information I can use. I have no issues finding chicken feet as I live in a suburb of Vancouver that is about 70% Chinese so there are lots of Chinese markets near my home. I can get anything I want and most things I don't want How long do the wings and/or feet have to cook to break down enough to be usable?

    I'm in the middle of a physical renaissance so I appreciate your input.

      Well on average about 2-3 hours. But the slower you can cook it meaner lower heat and longer always the better health wise. This is one of the misconceptions of meat being carcinogenic. That could be said about anything where extremely high temperatures are used to cook the product. Boiled meat is hardly carcinogenic that is providing that the meat has been raised on is natural diet which is grass making it much higher in omega 3 along with conjugated linoleic acid which actually prevents cancer and it would also have to be raised without the use of hormones and antibiotics. But it becomes very easy to manipulate information and only tell half the story.

      Same goes for chickens they don’t eat a diet of grains no bird does. Supplemental grain I guess would be okay depending on where that grain is coming from and as long as it is not GMO meaning the pesticide glyphosate is built into the seed. I have several friends that have farms and the chickens eat grass, bugs, worms and will peck at the carcass of a dead animal the result is that once again the omega 3 ratio is much more in line with what you should be consuming. I can tell the difference in one of those eggs and even an organic egg purchased from Whole Foods instantly, the fact is there is no comparison.

      With this being said I would find out where the chicken is coming from as it does matter. Everything you see being done with food whether it’s GMO, pasteurization, radiation etc has only to do with money and hardly anything to do with health. I mean for God sake I have to purchase almonds from a small farmer in California and just have them shipped as you can’t buy them raw in the store. Just our government working with big processors to help them make more money by making processing easier, shelf life longer all the while pushing the small guys that are actually doing the right thing out of business as it becomes harder to compete. All in the name of your health at least that is what they would like you to believe.

      So how does a dumbed down population figure it all out with spending an extraordinary amount of time researching. The fact is they don’t and just pick one of the top ten diseases on the list that people die an early death from and you will suddenly realize it could have been avoided if the money didn’t matter as much.

        There is probably no reliable way to find out where these chicken feet come from but I'm sure they didn't go out of their way to find farm raised birds. Thanks for your input. I find this all very interesting and the more I learn the more I enjoy. I can say that over the past few months I have changed a lot of the easy things that I consume. Cutting out sugars, natural fructose, breads, etc. and my has transformed my physique (along with specific weight routines) faster than it ever before in my life. What I have learned about bread alone is shocking and has lead me to a much more satisfying diet without gluten wrecking havoc in my stomach! Anyway, I could talk about this all day. Thanks again.

          No problem I’m happy to help and could also talk about it all day.
          One quick thought. Factory farmers at some point in time realized they could feed their cattle cheap grain and double or triple their bodyweight by the time they were ready for market, substantially increasing their income. The big food processors figured out the same thing they could feed cheap grain in various combinations of flavors and textures, trademark their product and make sh*tloads of money. Only problem is it’s not real food or at least anything that a human should be consuming and tripling ones want is not something most are looking to do.

          Good luck with your program and here is one tip that can make a huge difference. If you can lose your fear of cholesterol and the sun you could easily double or triple your testosterone levels naturally. You will be leaner, stronger and happier and it will cost you practically nothing and that’s the problem, it’s free.

          I have found that when I feel really good I’m happier and I always feel really good. Sometimes my passion is misunderstood.

            Hi Topcat...!

            The hair is coming along nicely. Question, did the transplanted beard hairs fall out after the procedure?

            Doesn't look like it to me viewing the previous photos, looks like their getting progressively longer.

            Your chin looks like nothing was done, really incredible, if the macro shots don't show anything worth mentioning as far as scaring, it certainly must look great from a short distance away too.

            Same with your hair, being a little thin in macro (naturally), I bet it looks great from a short distance away compared to prior the procedure. Do you plan on going back for another pass?

            I hear you regarding you are what you eat, after being diagnosed with diabetes long ago I been watching exactly what I consume for several years, you're certainly right, eating good nutritious food and working out makes all the difference in the world, not only for the body, but the hair as well.

            Wholefoods is where we shop too, they don't have every product I want, but they do have the largest selection of great-nutritious food compared to the chain-stores selling the chemical ridden garbage. Eating the proper food and getting jacked, insulin isn't necessary.

            Best of luck to you my friend...!

              Hi Dale thank you. To be honest I really can’t tell if most of the beard hair fell out or not as there is just too much hair there now compared to when I first started. But what I have noticed and this is only from the picture as I don’t check the mirror is that hairs are starting to sprout already.

              And yes these pictures are extremely close under very bright light or daylight. In person in looks much better.

                    Now your talking, nor do I eat bread, Homemade Whole Wheat on occasion if I can find someone to make it, I get lazy at times after working too much, thank God for Wholefoods.....

                    When I see so many young men losing their hair it has often made me wonder if the garbage many consume has a long lasting effect. Reading your post about normal nutrition, believe me, I've been doing the same things for years now, its mind-boggling the affect it has on the body, mind and soul.

                    Have a good one Topcat.

                      Firstly I should say congrats on achieving the physique you have no doubt you've worked very hard for it, that kind of physique compliments a bald head look very well as most of us know and your repair work is an obvious improvement, could I just ask out of interest, if it weren't for the scarring which you speak of would you have just shaved your head and gone with that look? I mean if you could turn the clock back would you just shave it instead of the surgery route?

                        Kayman yes absolutely as I have found that my head suits that look when it’s shaved for fue. If anything I would do exactly what I have stated many times I would have a mature hairline established using fue to frame the face, keep it short and leave the crown bald. In my opinion that is a good look and very safe.

                          Okay since we got on the subject I thought I would take a picture of what real gelatin from real animal bones should look like. It’s seasoned only with Celtic Sea Salt and it is absolutely delicious. It can be eaten cold or reheated and served as a soup.

                          I can give so many reasons why this is beneficial outside of hair and skin. Imagine having to go through the pain of having back surgery due to deteriorated discs. Real food like this prevents that from happening but you will never hear about it from a doctor. He works only for the hospital which wants to see some back surgeries coming in or the pharmaceutical companies who want to see some prescriptions written. Plus a doctor doesn’t even know about it as the curriculum he studies is determined by those who are really in control. It’s really kind of sad in a way that they spend all their time on their education only to find out they have to work within a controlled system or they lose their license. That to me is not a real doctor but this is what we have so we basically need to research for ourselves.

                            Highlander because you are always infinitely better off eating real food regardless of what those selling pills and powders would try and have you believe.

                            Protein is normally always tied up with fat and carbs are normally always tied up with fiber and there is a reason for it. Once you start straying from real food than health issues can easily arise.

                            Real broth contains all the vitamins, minerals, and trace minerals in a form that is very easily absorbed by the body. It also contains the chondrotin sulphates and glucosamines as they were meant to be consumed. Nobody can patent or trademark real food so that becomes a real problem for those only interested in making more money.

                              Regarding a question I have been asked about the beard hair not falling out and continuing to grow. Initially I wrote that to be honest I really can’t tell as there is just too much hair there. My wife commented on my hair for some reason yesterday, about how it’s really coming in which made me laugh a little as I explained to her it has only been 8 weeks the hair will not start growing in until at least 12 weeks. But I must admit that my hair looks so much better even at this early point and the goal of this last procedure was to be able to style my hair my towards the side and not down towards my forehead. This was all to achieve a more natural looking appearance, well I have that right now so maybe many of those hairs stayed.

                              What I do know is that if you look at the recipient area you will see hairs coming in already. So yes when I do see postings regarding Acell and early growth at the 3 month mark it does make me laugh. Early growth compared to what?

                                Hey Topcat.....yes indeed they are coming in already, should be a good sign regarding the final outcome.

                                I too had some early growth without any special potions injected.

                                Oh...that bone soup looks Delicious too........lol

                                Have a good day my friend....!
