I saw a new reblog game and came RUSHING in! 1. "I think I dreamed you to life." // 3. "Thank you for choosing me." // AND most importantly! 14. "My heart is fit to bursting!" - C
*shaking* tysm anon. i am in love with you now <3
1. What's your OC F/O's origin story? Did anything in particular inspire you to base their personality/looks off of? Please tell us basic facts about them that you think are important for us to better get to know them!
So, Maxwell was actually made for an RP!! I stumbled upon the Dead Dove RP side of tumblr, and wanted to try out some plots! Thus, Maxwell was made!! It was about a corrupt priest!! I roleplayed with him for awhile before exploring his character outside of RP! Once I did, I fell in love!!!! I will not lie, his inspiration lies with Claude Frollo from Hunchback of Notre Dame and Hannibal Lecter from NBC Hannibal.
Some basic facts...hmm. He has a major god complex and is Self-righteous. He can be grumpy at times when not in "character" (his words on his job), but can be really kind when you gain his trust. Hs's also super passionate abt the things he cares abt!!! He could write for hours on a sermon and still not he done!
3. How yould you define your relationship with your OC F/O? How did this relationship start?
Spiritual, for sure. We met in his church, when I asked for guidance. I had lost my beliefs and any sight of my purpose. He raised me up from my lowest point to find joy again. I truly believe in him as my savior; id never be where i am without him. i see him as my soulbond.
we were both pretty stubbourn on the confession part. it's a debate between the two of us who confessed first (it was totally me). we were hesitant at first, and then fell head- in with one another. and i couldn't have asked for it to go any other way.
14. Gush Pass! Gush about your OC F/O!
oh wow. my brain gets overwhelmed (/pos) with how much i want to say about him, but i will try my best for it not to be gibberish!!
I am. So in love. With Maxwell. I'm sitting here eating some cake and thinking about him and my heart is FLUTTERING. I still feel like im a little school girl with a crush. Hes just....so amazing. I feel so at ease with him, like the world is finally slowing down. I am so grateful, every day, to have met him.
i have done nothing but improve since i's met him. he constantly encourages me and makes me feel worth it. i wish i could truly explain how much i love him, but words are simply not enough. he makes me forget my insecurities and encourages me to improve. being with him forever is simply not long enough.

hi, i just found your art and i love it! may i ask a stupid question? did you go to art school or did you teach yourself?? if self taught, do you have any advice? im a self taught artist and i want to get better lmao. i just love how beautiful your work is, very inspiring!
Thank you!! and it’s not stupid! I didn’t go to art school or anything (I did take the elective art classes late in middle school and in early hs too but I’d been drawing since before then and I took those as a requirement to be able to take painting, which I never ended up doing though) so I’d consider myself self taught.
Ok this ended up being long so hopefully it’s not super overwhelming but I hope it helps!
so what has helped me a lot has been thinking about my subject in a 3D sense, I usually try to understand why whatever I’m drawing is structured the way it is. So usually w my portraits I’ll think about the skull underneath or I’ll think about parts you can’t see (like an ear or a nostril if they’re turned slightly etc) on the reference image and it helps me make sense of what I’m seeing.
also drawing parts in relation to another helps a Lot, so I’d line up like the edge of an eye to the corner of the mouth and draw a bunch of lines connecting parts like that to make sure everything is properly distanced and that helps a lot with keeping proper proportions! (you can still do this with non portraits though, looking at negative space is a game changer)
starting sketches w vague shapes and then slowly going more into detail also helps and it’s less daunting than thinking your first few marks need to already be accurate and defined.
for the mental part of it I think understanding every time you draw it doesn’t have to be a Piece will help put the pressure off and it allows u to not be worried about mistakes. (It also makes room for experimentation) Also I used to be very caught up in being upset how my art style isn’t as good as other people’s but realizing no one’s art will ever look like anyone else’s (even if they’re copying) helped me value my work and see it as it’s own entity that doesn’t need to be critically compared to anyone else’s, that’s also just not how it works anyway. that also allowed me to grow quicker when I was able to push mental barriers like that away and work on what I enjoy about making art.
Also artblock is a thing that happens to everyone, I either accept I’m gonna make stuff I don’t like for a while or if I straight up have no inspiration then I need to distract myself in the meantime. Getting into a new or revisiting an old medium does help let you think differently about your art and could help you get out of artblock too though. also drawing a lot of whatever you like does so much for improvement bc then it’s just lots of practice so don’t feel weird ab being obsessed w something or like going through a phase bc it all helps you improve anyway plus you’re spending time on stuff you enjoy too.
Ok ik this ended up being a lot lol but these are some things i feel like have been very important to me as an artist, a lot of these are things I actively use or have to remind myself of still. I also didn’t wanna just be vague like ‘keep going, practice a lot! Don’t compare urself!’ etc. so I hope this was useful & feel free to ask more if you have any questions later too!

Hi moni! I was wondering if I can get a free love reading please? I want to know what are TB's (cancer sun, libra moon, gemini venus) thoughs about me? What are their true intentions? I am a scorpio sun and moon, sag venus and pisces rising. Thank you so much - HS 💞
Hi, love! How are you?
What are TB’s thoughts about you? Ten Wands (reversed), Queen of Swords (reversed), Queen of Cups, Nine of Pentacles, Page of Swords, Six of Cups.
The cards announce TB thinks of having a type of "reconciliation" with you. I don't know if you have distanced or your relationship has gone through some discussion in the past, but TB has in mind to reconnect with you and remember the past with you. TB sees you as an intelligent person, but who can be carried away by your emotions and not use your reasoning correctly. The excessive use of your emotions makes TB see you as a fragile person although you may be trying to hide it. Also, TB thinks that your feelings make you see things the wrong way. Therefore, if you have both had a misunderstanding, TB thinks it was caused by your feelings and that excessive need you have to use your emotions instead of your mind. On the other hand, TB sees you as a person who can easily be fooled by having a very good heart. Sometimes you are too good and people take advantage of it. Resentment also shows up in their thoughts, as TB envisions you as a recognizable person (although I’m not surprised, as it is a particular feature of Scorpios). So having a relationship with you is difficult for TB, although this doesn’t stop TB from continuing to think of you, since TB feels protected and cared for with you.
As I said before, TB knows you have a kind heart and your honesty will always be present in your conversations. Also, you are very intuitive and TB has realized this. You are the perfect person when TB needs advice or emotional support, you also teach them a lot and always with love and kindness. Besides, TB defines you as a very intelligent person and very quick when it comes to answering or solving any problem, although sometimes you can be too impulsive or lose yourself in your own thoughts. Also, you have to be careful with how you say things, since sometimes you can be too intense and do damage inadvertently. TB can have certain problems making decisions, especially those related to your love life, so certain words can confuse you more. However, TB knows that you bring them abundance and they will never lack anything by your side. For TB you are a successful person in their objectives, since you get everything you set out to do.
You carry too great an emotional charge that you could undo at any time if you wanted to. Sometimes TB can see you as an unnecessary victim. It’s as if TB thinks you become the victim or the martyr when you aren’t, but it isn’t a constant thought, but on some specific occasions, since they can see you as a person who runs away from some responsibilities you have.
What are their true intentions? Nine of Cups, Six of Swords, The Emperor, The Justice, The Sun, Page of Wands, Seven of Wands.
TB intends to change your relationship. TB needs to make certain changes in your relationship, although they know those changes they want to make have a “price”. TB must sacrifice certain things inherent in them to achieve that happiness sought in your relationship. TB wants to put effort into improving your connection, since they know your relationship is worth keeping. They not only want to keep your relationship, but they want to strengthen your bond and make your relationship stronger than it is right now. On the other hand, TB knows if they put effort into improving your relationship, the reward they will receive in the future will be great and will bring much happiness to their life.
TB may have a romantic interest in you. This romantic feeling may exist today or awaken in the near future. TB wants to become a stable person in your life, since you are to them. TB's feelings for you (regardless of what kind of feeling it is) are serious and sincere. The love, the affection, TB has towards you is sincere and TB wants you to notice it and be aware of it.
I don't know if you have had any conflicts or problems in the past, but TB intends to deliver justice. TB may feel that someone outside of your relationship has been unfair or simply some aspect of your relationship doesn’t seem fair or balanced to both of you, so TB will act to change this. I have a feeling it may be linked to the involvement in the relationship you may have, since the cards end up talking about feelings. Especially with The Justice and The Sun together they talk about reciprocated love and a desired formal relationship on the part of TB. Therefore, if you have romantic intentions with TB, my cards tell you it’s possible. Finally, one of the two will step forward and talk about their feelings, although it’s possible that it’s TB who is gaining strength and they are launching to conquer your heart.
Good luck, love!

In vitro Assessment of Biofield Energy Treated DMEM on Thermogenesis Using Myoblasts Cell Line (C2C12)- Juniper Publishers
Tumblr media
Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction lead to various serious disorders, which are considered as one of the important components related with the aging, such as type-2 diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of Consciousness Energy Healing based DMEM medium on murine myoblasts (C2C12) cells to evaluate the mitochondrial mass content using 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) dye assay. The test item (DMEM medium) was divided into two parts, one part received Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Dahryn Trivedi and was labeled as the Biofield Energy Treated DMEM group, while the other part did not receive any kind of Treatment and denoted as the untreated DMEM group. The level of mitochondrial mass content was assessed using 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) dye method. Cell viability of the test items using MTT assay showed 72.32% and 125.32% viable cells in the untreated DMEM and Biofield Energy Treated DMEM groups, respectively suggested a safe and nontoxic profile of the test items. Besides, the mitochondrial mass content in terms of Fluorescence Unit (FU) was significantly (p≤0.05) increased by 81.78% in the Biofield Energy Treated DMEM group compared to the untreated DMEM group. Overall, the experimental data suggested that the Consciousness Energy Healing Based DMEM showed a significant improvement of mitochondrial mass content and results in better thermogenesis with respect to naive DMEM. Thus, an increased level of NAO dye accumulation in muscle cells indicated increased mitochondrial mass content and hence, better thermogenesis. In the present study, results demonstrated that an increased mitochondrial mass content in the cells when treated with The Trivedi Effect®. This indicates that the test sample has the potential to improve thermogenesis, which can be used against various metabolic diseases, such as insulin resistance, type-2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases, etc.

Introduction
Mitochondria (also known as power generator of the cell) produce most of the vital energy required for the cellular function through oxidative phosphorylation involved in electron transport and ATP synthesis. They produce ATP through the process of cellular respiration mainly aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen. Number and amount of mitochondria in a cell be governed by the energy requirement of the cell [1]. For example, the muscle cells have found comparatively more number of mitochondria since, they need to produce energy to move the body. On the other hand, red blood cells carry oxygen to other cells, do not need to produce energy as compared with the muscle cells. Mitochondria are the powerhouse in the cell, which produce energy from basic components. They undergo fusion, fission, transport, and degradation, all of the process is vital to maintain a healthy mitochondrial population [1]. However, the mitochondrial biogenesis process is involved an increased and controlled mitochondrial mass with number that helped to produce greater production of ATP as a response to greater energy expenditure [2]. Physiologic, metabolic, and pathologic changes along with morphological and functional adaptability are the vital factor to regulate the process of mitochondrial biogenesis. In addition, proteins and transcription factors, upstream regulatory proteins and secondary mechanisms are also involved in the biogenesis process, which also stabilizes the new mitochondrial DNA [3].
Mitochondrial biogenesis regulates and control various therapeutic interference in wide number of diseases such as metabolic syndrome, neurodegenerative disorders, sarcopenia, cardiac pathophysiology and physiological processes like aging [4]. Nonyl-acridine orange (NAO) is a non-fluorescent dye that converts into fluorescent dye in the presence of oxidative species [5]. NAO assay is one of the gold standard assays to detect the mitochondrial mass alteration, which is a metachromatic dye that binds to cardiolipin, an inner mitochondrial membrane lipid, regardless of the energetic state of the cell. Therefore, mitochondrial mass of the cells could be estimated by studying accumulation of the fluorescent dye in the mitochondria. Furthermore, an alternative therapies such as nuclear gene was reported to regulate total mitochondrial mass in response to mitochondrial dysfunction [6]. In order to improve the mitochondrial mass content via thermogenesis process, some alternative treatment approach without any associated side-effect is needed.
Biofield Energy Healing is a categorized as one of the Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) accepted worldwide for the various treatment. Biofield Energy Therapy was accepted by National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM). Biofield Energy Healing is one of the emerging frontier in medicine, which has been increased in order to promote wellness by uncovering the root cause of diseases with universal solutions. CAM therapies have shown various significant clinical benefits. Over the past few decades, many energy healing practices have been reported a significant outcomes in various clinical and non-clinical fields. The effects of the CAM therapies have great potential, which include external qigong, Johrei, Reiki, therapeutic touch, yoga, Qi Gong, polarity therapy, Tai Chi, pranic healing, deep breathing, chiropractic/osteopathic manipulation, guided imagery, meditation, massage, homeopathy, hypnotherapy, progressive relaxation, acupressure, acupuncture, special diets, relaxation techniques, Rolfing structural integration, healing touch, movement therapy, pilates, mindfulness, Ayurvedic medicine, traditional Chinese herbs and medicines in biological systems both In vitro and in vivo [7]. Every living organisms possess some kind of unique energy known as Biofield Energy, which is infinite, para-dimensional and electromagnetic field surrounding the human body. Biofield (Putative Energy Fields) based Energy Healing Therapies have been reported to have significant outcomes against various disease conditions. Biofield Energy Healing Treatment (The Trivedi Effect®) contain a putative bioenergy, which is channeled by a renowned practitioner from a distance. Biofield Energy Healing as a CAM showed a significant results in biological studies [8]. However, the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), well-defined Biofield Therapies in the subcategory of Energy Therapies [9]. The Trivedi Effect®- Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment has been reported with significant revolution in the physicochemical properties of metals, chemicals, ceramics and polymers [10- 12], improved agricultural crop yield, productivity, and quality [13,14], transformed antimicrobial characteristics [15–17], biotechnology [18,19], improved bioavailability [20–22], skin health [23, 24], nutraceuticals [25,26], cancer research [27,28], bone health [29–31], human health and wellness. On the basis of outstanding benefits of Biofield Energy Treatment, the present study was aimed to evaluate the impact of the Biofield Energy Treatment (The Trivedi Effect®) on DMEM as test sample to alter the mitochondrial mass content on thermogenesis using NAO dye staining using standard in vitro assay in murine myoblasts (C2C12) cells.
Material and Methods
Chemicals and reagents
Fetal bovine serum (FBS) and Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM) were purchased from Life Technology, USA. Antibiotics solution (penicillin-streptomycin) were procured from HiMedia, India, and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was purchased from Sigma, USA. All the other chemicals used in this experiment were analytical grade procured from India.
Cell culture
C2C12 (murine myoblasts) was used as a test system in the present study. The C2C12 cell line was maintained in DMEM growth medium for routine culture supplemented with 10% FBS. Growth conditions were maintained at 37°C, 5% CO2, and 95% humidity and subcultured by trypsinisation followed by splitting the cell suspension into fresh flasks and supplementing with fresh cell growth medium. Before initiation of the experiment, cells were incubated in DMEM+2% horse serum (HS) for 3 days to allow the cells to differentiate into myotubes.
Experimental design
The experimental groups consisted of group 1 (G-I) with untreated DMEM and group 2 (G-II) included the Biofield Energy Treated DMEM.
Consciousness energy healing treatment strategies
The test item, DMEM was divided into two parts. One part of the test item was treated with the Biofield Energy by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Dahryn Trivedi remotely for ~5 minutes and coded as the Biofield Energy Treated DMEM, while the second part did not receive any sort of treatment and denoted as the untreated DMEM group. Biofield Energy Healer was located in the USA, while the test items were located in the research laboratory of Dabur Research Foundation, New Delhi, India. This Biofield Energy Treatment was administered through Healer’s unique Energy Transmission process to the test sample under laboratory conditions. Dahryn Trivedi in this study never visited the laboratory in person, nor had any contact with the test item (DMEM). Further, the untreated DMEM group was treated with a “sham” healer for comparative purposes. The “sham” healer did not have any knowledge about the Biofield Energy Treatment. After that, the Biofield Energy Treated and untreated samples were kept in similar sealed conditions for experimental study.
Assessment of cell viability using MTT assay
The cell viability was performed by MTT assay in C2C12 cell line. The cells were counted and plated in 96-well plates at the density corresponding to 10 X 103 cells/well/180μL of cell growth medium (DMEM+2% HS). The above cells were incubated overnight under growth conditions and allowed the cell recovery and exponential growth, which were subjected to serum stripping or starvation. The cells were treated with the Untreated and Biofield Energy Treated test item. The cells in the above plate(s) were incubated for 24 to 72 hours in a CO2 incubator at 37°C, 5% CO2, and 95% humidity. Following incubation, the plates were taken out and 20μL of 5 mg/mL of MTT solution were added to all the wells followed by additional incubation for 3 hours at 37°C. The supernatant was aspirated and 150μL of DMSO was added to each well to dissolve formazan crystals. The absorbance of each well was read at 540nm using Synergy HT microplate reader, Bio Tek, USA [29]. The percentage cytotoxicity at each tested concentrations of the test items were calculated using the following equation (1):
%cytotoxicity = (1− X / R)*100………..(1)
Where, X = Absorbance of the Biofield Treated cells; R = Absorbance of untreated cells
The percentage cell viability corresponding to each treatment was obtained using the following equation (2):
% Cell Viability = (100- % Cytotoxicity)………(2)
The concentrations exhibiting ≥70% cell viability was considered as non-cytotoxic.
Assessment of mitochondrial content
For the assessment of mitochondrial mass, the cells were counted using an hemocytometer and plated at 4500 cells/well in dark walled 96-well plates in DMEM supplemented with 2% HS. The cells were incubated overnight under standard growth conditions to allow the cell recovery and exponential growth, which were treated by the test items in different groups followed by incubation with the test items for 72 hours. After incubation with the test items, mitochondrial content was determined by 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) dye. 50nM dye was added to each well and the cells were incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C and 5%CO2. After 30 minutes of incubation, media was discarded and cells were washed with phosphate buffer saline (PBS). 150μL of PBS was added to each well and fluorescence was read at 485/20 excitation, 528/20 emission filter using synergy HT microplate reader. The percentage increase in mitochondrial content was calculated using following equation
Where, FU denotes Fluorescence unit
Statistical analysis
All the values were represented as Mean ± SEM (standard error of mean) of three independent experiments. The statistical analysis was performed using Sigma Plot statistical software (v11.0). For two groups comparison student’s t-test was used. Statistically significant values were set at the level of p≤0.05.
Results and Discussion
Cell viability using MTT assay
Cell viability data of the untreated and Biofield Energy Treated DMEM groups in C2C12 cells using MTT assay is shown in Figure 1. The percentage of cell viability in the untreated DMEM group was 72.32%, while it was 125.32% in the Biofield Energy Treated DMEM group (Figure 1). Overall, data suggest that all the test samples were found safe against the tested C2C12 cells, which were used for the estimation of mitochondrial mass content, which indicate extend of thermogenesis.
Extend of mitochondrial mass content in C2C12 cells
Mitochondrial mass content or biogenesis showed a significant effects against various metabolic diseases. The increased cell capacity to control and maintain the cell metabolism, signal transduction, and regulation of mitochondrial ROS production [2]. Alteration or decrease in the mitochondrial biogenesis are related with the mitochondrial dysfunction and mitochondrial oxidative stress, which leads to various diseases [32]. Mitochondrial mass content results in the improved production of ATP as a response to greater energy expenditure [33]. Various factors such as physical exercise, nutritional factors, etc. reported to have an improved mitochondrial mass content, which results in greater glucose uptake by muscles, along with an increased metabolic enzymes level for glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation and ultimately a greater mitochondrial metabolic capacity [34]. Aging process leads to decrease level of mitochondrial mass content and results in various diseases such as enhanced aging, insulin resistance, type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, etc. [35]. The experiment was conducted to study the influence of Biofield Energy Healing Treatment on mitochondrial content in C2C12 cells using NAO dye assay. The results of mitochondrial mass content in terms of increase number of fluorescence unit (FU) among different groups in C2C12 cells using NAO dye assay are presented in Figure 2. The untreated DMEM group showed 272.3 ± 12.14 FU. Besides, the Biofield Energy Treated DMEM group showed 81.78% increase the level of mitochondrial mass in terms of FU, compared to the untreated DMEM group (Figure 2).
Thus, the data suggested that the Consciousness Energy Blessed DMEM showed a significant improvement of thermogenesis, which results in mitochondrial mass content. This phenomenon can be significantly used against various metabolic diseases, such as insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Overall, the Biofield Energy Healing Treatment (The Trivedi Effect®) has the significant capacity to improve the overall Quality of life with an improved thermogenesis and mitochondrial content.
Conclusion
MTT data showed a significant cell viability with ranges from 72.32% to 125.32% in different test item groups, which indicated that the test items were safe and non-toxic in nature. Correspondingly, The Trivedi Effect® showed a significant change in mitochondrial mass among different groups. The Biofield Energy Treated DMEM group demonstrated significant increase in the mitochondrial mass by 81.78% as compared to the untreated DMEM group. Thus, Biofield Energy Healing based DMEM can be significantly used to improve the energy level, endurance, body energy, which can be utilized against many diseases such aging, diabetes, cancer, depression, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, aging, and physical strength. The Biofield Energy Treated (The Trivedi Effect®) DMEM were found to have a significant impact on thermogenesis, which might significantly improve the mitochondrial content in muscle cells. Therefore, the Consciousness Energy Healing based DMEM might be a suitable alternative media for cell growth. It can be useful for the management of various disorders such as Lupus, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Fibromyalgia, Addison Disease, Hashimoto Thyroiditis, Celiac Disease (gluten-sensitive enteropathy), Multiple Sclerosis, Dermatomyositis, Graves’ Disease, Myasthenia Gravis, Pernicious Anemia, Aplastic Anemia, Scleroderma, Psoriasis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Reactive Arthritis, Diabetes, Sjogren Syndrome, Crohn’s Disease, Vasculitis, Vitiligo, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Alopecia Areata, as well as inflammatory disorders such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Asthma, Ulcerative Colitis, Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, Atherosclerosis, Dermatitis, Hepatitis, and Diverticulitis. Further, the Biofield Energy Healing Treatment can also be used in the prevention of immune-mediated tissue damage in cases of organ transplants (for example heart transplants, kidney transplants and liver transplants), for anti-aging, stress prevention and management, and in the improvement of overall health and Quality of Life.

Questions to my Former Self w/ RIshabh Prakash @rishabhprakash8
In the running world we have various types of runners. Theoretically speaking we all work really hard as runners. In the context of personality type, i grativate as coach both introverted and extroverted ahtetles. In this particular case, where the mixture of hard work, talent and personality is what we find in Rishabh Prakash from Burlington High School now a freshmen attending Cornell University. Over the past two years I have started to develop a rapport with this amazing talent and better human being. Honesty is the best policy he is missed this year. However we are going to check in with Burly's Finest. 
Info:
DATG: First & Last name: ?
 Rishabh Prakash 
Social Media Instagram: rishabh_prakash_ 
Twitter: RishabhPrakash8 
Facebook: 
Age: 18 
HS Graduated & year graduated: Burlington High School Class of 2019
 College: Cornell University 
Events: Distance and XC PR’s: 
Mile: 4:14.88 
2 Mile: 9:08.02 
5K: 14:46.89 
8K (XC): 24:22.30 
10K: 30:10.5 
DATG: How are you man ? How are things at Cornell ? I’m doing great man! Things at Cornell are going great! It’s been an adjustment getting used to college but I think I’ve finally gotten into a nice routine and I’m having the time of my life. 
DATG: What's your major ? Computer Science and I’m hopefully trying to minor in Business 
DATG: Seems like yesterday watching you crush it here in Massachusetts, you had an amazing high school career. Where there any lows if so when ? It is inevitable that every great runner has some lows in their career, and a runner is defined by not only by their successes but also by how they have bounced back from their lows. For me, the biggest low in my high school career was senior year indoors around All States. I was amidst my best season of running and thought that I was poised to have a great run in the two mile, and thought that if I could stick with Ryan Oosting for the majority of the race, I could break 9 and make the race one to remember. There was a lot of hype around that race and I definitely let that pressure get to me. Unfortunately, I got sick a few days before the race, and despite that tried to put myself in the race and consequently died hard to something like a twelfth place finish and a very shitty time. I was very down on myself for almost a week after that race, but was able to get over my sickness and use my disappointment/frustration as motivation to run well at Nationals two weeks later. 
DATG: When did you start to believe that you were in the best runners in the area ? State Coaches my junior year was definitely a turning point in my running career where I realized that I truly was one of the best runners in the area. I led that race nearly gun to tape (before being outkicked in the last 150 lol) and ran 4:24, which was a massive PR for me at the time. I beat a lot of talented runners in that race and it really showed me what I could achieve in my high school career. 
DATG: Is their preference in favorite season or track event ? In Massachusetts, and Eastern Mass especially, we’re definitely spoiled in that we get to run at either BU or Reggie, two of the best indoor tracks in the country, for nearly every meet, so there was always an opportunity to run fast. So during high school, indoor was definitely my favorite season, and I don’t see that changing in college. Event wise, I thought I was a miler junior year and then moved up to race the two mile consistently senior year. In college I think I’ll be a 3k/5k runner, but I honestly love to race anything from the 4x400 to the 10K and just race in general, and think my versatility and range is what makes me a good runner. 
DATG: How is Upstate NYC treating you ? Gets cold and alot of snow ? How is that working out for you ? So far, the weather has not been that much different from home in MA, but we haven’t really hit peak winter yet so I can’t judge. If anything it’s just a few degrees colder than MA and snows more frequently, but the weather is pretty manageable for someone born and raised in the Northeast. The trails in Ithaca are amazing though so when the ground wasn’t covered in snow during XC season I was able to hit nearly all my mileage on soft surfaces with scenic views which was really nice. 
DATG: Go to Cereal: Lucky Charms or Froot Loops 
DATG: Biggest adjustment in College so far ? From Academics to Athletics ? Freshman year in college is really all about adjustments, and how well you can adjust is a huge determinant in your success both academically and athletically. Being a student athlete at an academically intensive school like Cornell has been far from easy. The workload is exponentially higher than high school, and time management is very key to ensuring you are successful. For a decent amount of my first semester, it felt like my life was really just doing schoolwork with running being my only break from that grind, but I have slowly started to have more time for myself. Athletically, running itself doesn’t change other than a slight increase in volume. The biggest change from high school has been the emphasis on all the little supplemental things, such as post run lifts, hurdle mobility, and recovery, that we do every day that adds to the length of practices, but are vital to staying healthy. 
DATG: Funfact you know I am gamer. Are you ? We have a Nintendo Switch set up in my dorm so I play a lot of Super Smash Bros Ultimate with my roommates and teammates. 
DATG: Favorite High School moment ? Third Place and All American in the Two Mile at Nationals. Being an All American was a goal that I had for so long so to be able to finally achieve that was surreal. 
Team wise, winning State Relays indoors my senior year was my most memorable moment. We had a tough couple of losses in dual meets leading up to Relays that decreased our confidence as a team, and injuries and other factors really left our team shorthanded. Despite the adversity, we exceeded our expectations in multiple events and were able to defend our Relays title. I think if you ask Coach Carr to tell you his favorite meet throughout my four years, he would pick that Relays meet - it’s the happiest I’ve ever seen him. 
DATG: Your taking a road trip and you can only play 3 albums what albums are there ? 
1. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, since every road trip needs Kanye and that is 
undoubtedly Kanye’s best album 2. Big Bootie Mixes #1-#16. If you don’t know what Big Bootie Mixes are, they’re basically 
one our long mixes that top pop hits of the past 6-8 months, plus a few rap and rock throwbacks, but remixed to be up-tempo with EDM beats in the background and quite a few bass drops. They’re great for warmups and road trips, and playing all 16 would get you through 16 hours of driving. 3. A present day rap album, maybe today something like Astroworld or Drip Harder. 
DATG: Your School alumni Paul Hogan had an amazing career Post High School at Umass Lowell, has he mentored you or provided guidance along your journey ? Paul has been a huge mentor through high school and I’m sure he will continue to be one through college. More than anything, he has served as an example to look up to, and a runner that I can strive to be like. I remember freshman/sophomore year in high school when everyone would talk about Paul’s greatness, and thinking to myself “I wanna be like that.” And as I got faster and realized that his records were actually attainable, I would look at the school record board every day and it would motivate me to try to break his records. Seeing Paul’s success as an NCAA All American, and now as a pro runner for BAA, is something that will definitely motivate me throughout college. 
DATG: How is the Culture on the Cornell team ? I would say that our positive and supportive team culture is our strongest aspect and will be one of the primary reasons behind our success in future years. It was also one of the main things that drew me to Cornell during the recruiting process. We all hold each other accountable towards our own goals and push each other to be better versions of ourselves, while working our 
asses off every day at practice. At the same time, we are all best friends and have tons of fun outside of practice together. 
DATG: If you could play another sport what would it be and why ? Probably soccer. I played soccer growing up until high school and it was always my favorite sport until I started running. I’m also a huge basketball fan and can give any of my teammates the work in 1 v. 1, so either soccer or basketball. 
DATG: How was it to be coached and trained by my main Coach Matt Carr ? It is something I am very grateful for - to have had the opportunity to be coached by one of the best coaches in MA. Aside from writing killer workouts and training plans that contributed to my improvement, he definitely brought the best out of me as an athlete and truly made me believe that I could be the best. One of the biggest takeaways I will take from Coach Carr is in regards to goal setting, in that he would always say “if you achieve all the goals you set for yourself, then your goals were too damn easy.” Aside from that, practice was a blast every day with Carr’s sarcastic humor and memeable personality. 
DATG: How was your first XC season in College ? Any Highlights ? Overall, it went pretty solid. There were ups and downs but as a whole, it was a great first season. My first big invite, Paul Short, was a huge surprise in that I ran 24:22 for 8K (way faster than I expected to run) and placed really high. From there, I had a terrible race at Pre-Nats where I DNF’d, and a not as bad but still kind of terrible race at Heps. A lot of things like nervousness, bad fueling before the race, and stress from school, contributed to those shitty races, but I was able to improve on those things and run 30:10 at Northeast Regionals, and our team finished 9th running all sophomores and freshmen (with one junior) so our future and room for improvement definitely look bright.
DATG: What are your short term and long term goals ? Short Term: Run 4:08 for the Mile and 8:10 for 3K indoors, and score at Heps (Indoor), and hopefully sub 14:20 for 5K Outdoors. Long Term: Break 4 in the Mile and 8 in the 3K, win Heps as an Individual and as a Team, make NCAA’s as an individual 
DATG: I noticed that Prakash family isn't done yet with running ? Baby Bro is on the come up huh ? Introduced him here first and last name so the audience can check for him ? Do you believe he has learned anything from you 
Rithikh Prakash. Remember the name. He actually just broke 5 (4:55) in his first indoor mile a few days ago, so he’s definitely got a bright future. I definitely hope he has learned a good amount from me, just being at my meets and seeing me run the past four years. More than 
anything, I just want him to have fun with the sport of running during these early years and not feel pressured to run crazy fast, and eventually pave his own legacy. 
DATG: If we had an ability to go back in time and you could have a conversation with Freshman Rishabh who is entering his first track season what would you share with him that you think he could benefit from ? I would tell Freshman Rishabh to just have more fun with it. Running is such a mentally taxing sport, so if you are always dialed in 24/7 and focused on running fast in every single race, the sport becomes less fun and you go into races feeling more pressure and nerves than necessary. There are hundreds of opportunities to race, and every shitty race has the potential to be followed by a great race. I feel like I was too dialed in too early on, and would tell my younger self to just chill out a little bit more and have more fun with running, because it truly is an amazing sport with amazing people! Other than that, I would tell freshman Rishabh to keep working hard, and to stay patient. I was a bit of a late bloomer and would get down on myself early on when I saw freshmen and sophomores running crazy fast, wondering what I could do to be like that, but the truth is, all I could have done was stayed patient and let myself mature while putting in the work. So - have fun with it and stay patient and improvement will come! 
DATG: You know I need that Cornell Hoodie or Beanie ? Size Large thank you kindly. Gotchu! 
DATG: What can I do to make the podcast better ? Just keep grinding out content man! You also have a lot of outreach in MA, and I’m sure a lot of other runners would do Q&A’s like this. I think the public would love to read more content like this. 
Looking forward to seeing you crush at the IVY Championships

Dear Mark: Iron Followup
Last week’s post on iron levels got a big response and garnered a ton of questions from you guys. Today, I’m going to clarify a few things and answer as many questions as I can. First, do iron and ferritin levels mean different things for men and women? If so, how do those differences manifest? What about premenopausal women vs postmenopausal women? Second, what do we make of the fact that ferritin is also increased in times of inflammation? Is there a way to distinguish between elevated ferritin caused by inflammation and elevated ferritin caused by high iron? Third, is desiccated liver a good option for liver haters? And finally, I share some exciting plague news.
Let’s go:
Emma wrote:
I’d love to see more info on iron levels as they relate to men and women differently. I recently had an iron infusion for low ferretin, not thinking much would change I actually experienced so many positive effects I didn’t even know were coming my way. I’m less cold, no more afternoon fatigue, less hair falling out, no more random palpitations, improved restless leg syndrome and the number one big change is it improved anxiety levels – in fact my anxiety is now gone. The last two are due to a connection between iron and dopamine. I learnt that children with mental health issues are often treated for low ferretin where possible, elevating levels to around 100 showing positive results (would love to see literature on this), for me my ferretin went from 20 to 130 and its changed my life, at 31 I haven’t felt this good in years. Yay iron!
That’s awesome to hear. Yes, it’s important to stress the very basic essentiality of iron. Without it, we truly cannot produce energy. And since energy is the currency for everything that happens in the body, an iron deficiency makes everything start to fall apart.
As for gender and iron, there’s a lot to discuss.
A good portion of women with hemochromatosis never actually express it phenotypically, meaning their lab tests don’t show evidence of dysregulated iron metabolism or storage. According to one study of hemochromatosis homozygotes (people who inherited the mutation from both of their parents), being a woman makes it 16x more likely that your hereditary hemochromatosis won’t actually present as iron overload.
Another study found that among mostly-age-matched men (42 years) and women (39 years) with hemochromatosis, 78% of the men had iron overload while just 36% of the women had it. Iron overload was defined as transferrin saturation over 52% combined with ferritin levels of 300 ng/mL for men and 200 ng/mL for women.
High iron levels are more of an issue for postmenopausal women than premenopausal women. The latter group regularly sheds blood through menstruation, and if anything, they’re at a higher risk of low iron. Plus, estrogen is a key regulator of iron metabolism. As menopause sets in and estrogen diminishes, that regulation suffers.
For instance:
In postmenopausal Korean women, high ferritin levels predict metabolic syndrome and subclinical atherosclerosis.
High ferritin predicts metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal but not premenopausal women.
In premenopausal Korean women, higher ferritin levels predict better bone mineral density; menopause nullifies this relationship.
Remember that ferritin is actually a measurable protein bound to iron, so testing a ferritin level is technically an indirect way to measure iron. Why is this important? Another characteristic of ferritin (the protein) is that it is an ACUTE PHASE REACTANT. This means that ferritin levels can fluctuate with illnesses and other inflammatory states in the body that drive up a ferritin value that is not related to an actual iron level fluctuation. Don’t get ferritin checked when you are sick with a cold or other illness.
This is a great point.
Ferritin is marker of long term iron storage, but it’s also an acute phase reactant that up regulates in response to inflammation or oxidative stress.
If you want to be really careful, you should get a HS-CRP test—that measures your overall inflammatory status. If CRP is elevated, ferritin can be elevated without saying anything about your iron status.
Come to think of it, if elevated ferritin can be a marker of inflammation and oxidative stress, the inflammation could be responsible for some of the negative health effects linked to high ferritin. Or, if having too much iron in the body can increase oxidative damage, it may be that high iron levels are increasing inflammation which in turn increases ferritin even further. Biology gets messy. Lots of feedback loops. However, the fact that many studies cited in the previous iron post that use blood donation to treat high ferritin have positive results indicates that for most people, ferritin can be, in most situations, an accurate estimation of your iron status.
To make sure it’s an iron problem, get a transferrin saturation test as well. That indicates the amount of iron you’re absorbing, with below 20% being low and over 45% being high. People with high ferritin and high transferrin saturation do have high iron levels. People whose ferritin is artificially enhanced by inflammation will have normal transferrin saturation levels.
I have one last question on this. You say “Don’t stop eating liver every week.” If you can’t stand the taste of liver, what do you think about taking liver capsules made from grass-fed New Zealand beef every day instead?
That’s a great option. Go for it.
People should generally aim for 4-8 ounces of fresh liver a week. Note the amount of desiccated liver in your capsules and multiply by 3 to get the fresh liver equivalent, then take enough each day (or all at once) to hit 4-8 ounces over the week. I hear good things about this one.
Mark, Thank you for your article on HH. I carry the gene but have been managing my iron levels through phlebotomies. I am full Keto, meat and all and have found my iron levels have not been effected by going Keto. Early detection is the key and ongoing monitoring. Bring on the plague!!!
You joke about that now, but there’s a startup that’s breeding heritage rat fleas that produce a mild strain of the plague that evades the attention of the immune system and proliferates throughout the body to keep iron levels in check without killing you. I’m an early investor, have a couple swarms installed in my condo, and (knock on wood) so far have avoided anything worse than a sore throat and maybe a mild open sore or two. There’s actually a big rift forming between the techs who want to keep the fleas heritage and those who want to go ahead with CRISPR and engineer them. One variant has had a deer tick gene inserted that adds an anesthetic compound to the flea’s saliva. That way you can have a personal swarm on you and never feel any bites or itches.
I’m not sure about CRISPR just yet, but I gotta say it’s pretty nice to be covered in fleas and not feel the bites. Time will tell.
Ok, I’m joking.
That’s it for today, folks. I hope I’ve answered some of your concerns, and if not, let me know down below. Thanks for reading!

High iron levels are more of an issue for postmenopausal women than premenopausal women. The latter group regularly sheds blood through menstruation, and if anything, they’re at a higher risk of low iron. Plus, estrogen is a key regulator of iron metabolism. As menopause sets in and estrogen diminishes, that regulation suffers.
For instance:
In postmenopausal Korean women, high ferritin levels predict metabolic syndrome and subclinical atherosclerosis.
High ferritin predicts metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal but not premenopausal women.
In premenopausal Korean women, higher ferritin levels predict better bone mineral density; menopause nullifies this relationship.
Remember that ferritin is actually a measurable protein bound to iron, so testing a ferritin level is technically an indirect way to measure iron. Why is this important? Another characteristic of ferritin (the protein) is that it is an ACUTE PHASE REACTANT. This means that ferritin levels can fluctuate with illnesses and other inflammatory states in the body that drive up a ferritin value that is not related to an actual iron level fluctuation. Don’t get ferritin checked when you are sick with a cold or other illness.
This is a great point.
Ferritin is marker of long term iron storage, but it’s also an acute phase reactant that up regulates in response to inflammation or oxidative stress.
If you want to be really careful, you should get a HS-CRP test—that measures your overall inflammatory status. If CRP is elevated, ferritin can be elevated without saying anything about your iron status.
Come to think of it, if elevated ferritin can be a marker of inflammation and oxidative stress, the inflammation could be responsible for some of the negative health effects linked to high ferritin. Or, if having too much iron in the body can increase oxidative damage, it may be that high iron levels are increasing inflammation which in turn increases ferritin even further. Biology gets messy. Lots of feedback loops. However, the fact that many studies cited in the previous iron post that use blood donation to treat high ferritin have positive results indicates that for most people, ferritin can be, in most situations, an accurate estimation of your iron status.
To make sure it’s an iron problem, get a transferrin saturation test as well. That indicates the amount of iron you’re absorbing, with below 20% being low and over 45% being high. People with high ferritin and high transferrin saturation do have high iron levels. People whose ferritin is artificially enhanced by inflammation will have normal transferrin saturation levels.
I have one last question on this. You say “Don’t stop eating liver every week.” If you can’t stand the taste of liver, what do you think about taking liver capsules made from grass-fed New Zealand beef every day instead?
That’s a great option. Go for it.
People should generally aim for 4-8 ounces of fresh liver a week. Note the amount of desiccated liver in your capsules and multiply by 3 to get the fresh liver equivalent, then take enough each day (or all at once) to hit 4-8 ounces over the week. I hear good things about this one.
Mark, Thank you for your article on HH. I carry the gene but have been managing my iron levels through phlebotomies. I am full Keto, meat and all and have found my iron levels have not been effected by going Keto. Early detection is the key and ongoing monitoring. Bring on the plague!!!
You joke about that now, but there’s a startup that’s breeding heritage rat fleas that produce a mild strain of the plague that evades the attention of the immune system and proliferates throughout the body to keep iron levels in check without killing you. I’m an early investor, have a couple swarms installed in my condo, and (knock on wood) so far have avoided anything worse than a sore throat and maybe a mild open sore or two. There’s actually a big rift forming between the techs who want to keep the fleas heritage and those who want to go ahead with CRISPR and engineer them. One variant has had a deer tick gene inserted that adds an anesthetic compound to the flea’s saliva. That way you can have a personal swarm on you and never feel any bites or itches.
I’m not sure about CRISPR just yet, but I gotta say it’s pretty nice to be covered in fleas and not feel the bites. Time will tell.
Ok, I’m joking.
That’s it for today, folks. I hope I’ve answered some of your concerns, and if not, let me know down below. Thanks for reading!

Dear Mark: Iron Followup
Last week’s post on iron levels got a big response and garnered a ton of questions from you guys. Today, I’m going to clarify a few things and answer as many questions as I can. First, do iron and ferritin levels mean different things for men and women? If so, how do those differences manifest? What about premenopausal women vs postmenopausal women? Second, what do we make of the fact that ferritin is also increased in times of inflammation? Is there a way to distinguish between elevated ferritin caused by inflammation and elevated ferritin caused by high iron? Third, is desiccated liver a good option for liver haters? And finally, I share some exciting plague news.
Let’s go:

I’d love to see more info on iron levels as they relate to men and women differently. I recently had an iron infusion for low ferretin, not thinking much would change I actually experienced so many positive effects I didn’t even know were coming my way. I’m less cold, no more afternoon fatigue, less hair falling out, no more random palpitations, improved restless leg syndrome and the number one big change is it improved anxiety levels – in fact my anxiety is now gone. The last two are due to a connection between iron and dopamine. I learnt that children with mental health issues are often treated for low ferretin where possible, elevating levels to around 100 showing positive results (would love to see literature on this), for me my ferretin went from 20 to 130 and its changed my life, at 31 I haven’t felt this good in years. Yay iron!
That’s awesome to hear. Yes, it’s important to stress the very basic essentiality of iron. Without it, we truly cannot produce energy. And since energy is the currency for everything that happens in the body, an iron deficiency makes everything start to fall apart.
As for gender and iron, there’s a lot to discuss.
A good portion of women with hemochromatosis never actually express it phenotypically, meaning their lab tests don’t show evidence of dysregulated iron metabolism or storage. According to one study of hemochromatosis homozygotes (people who inherited the mutation from both of their parents), being a woman makes it 16x more likely that your hereditary hemochromatosis won’t actually present as iron overload.
Another study found that among mostly-age-matched men (42 years) and women (39 years) with hemochromatosis, 78% of the men had iron overload while just 36% of the women had it.
