Anyway, if you try it, please report back. Other ideas for convenient very high heat cooking? Please report back. Other ideas for degrading glycoalkaloids while not messing up "potatosis"? Pls report back.

[2] maybe google around (non-trivial) for credible biological/health effects of non-ionizing high freq emf

addendum: maybe good to supplement with vitamin C if trying this. that'd probably be the first thing to go? ymmv, I am not a doctor, etc., etc., etc.
personally I'm trying salmon, vegetables, and potatoes vs only potatoes. and also i'm currently only doing every 3 days, atm.

this might also be sort of a way to get at "what is the active ingredient" generally
if super-nuked potatoes DON'T cause weight loss, it's probably a delicate, complex compound
if super-nuked potatoes DO still cause weight loss, it's probably something simple like potassium

it would be so insanely dumb (but also awesome) if it was literally just potassium like jfc

there are a few hints of potassium making a difference (and we link to one study in the post) — we're not sure if straight supplementation would do it because of bioavailability, but it's something we're looking into

we were optimistic about it at first but we talked to a specialist who said we should be more cautious, again see discussion in the post for more detail

we want to read up on this a lot more before anyone does like a potassium challenge trial

real vitamin C cures scurvy hours over here, hypothetically
it would be almost disappointingly simple
all this work and it was just potassium the whole time!???
