How do you increase your IQ / overall intelligence?

First step: be an educated cis straight white man.

Stay away from booze. Eat healthy, and the company you surround yourself should be intelligent and thought provoking.
It also helps to understand what your strengths are.

At the end of the day, IQ is a bad way to test intelligence now days. I spent 7 years getting my level 3 welding inspection certification. And could tell you everything there is to the welding world.
Just like a doctor would know jack shit about welding I know jack shit about in depth medical procedures and terminology.

well for one stop coming here. It only reinforces negative impact mental habits coming here. But you can do a few basic things to expand your intellect like;

-Spend more time outside working with your hands
-Take up an art form
-Write more
-Engage in social actives that increase the amount of people and ideas you are exposed to.

Essentially new stimuli are the base you want to build off of. If it's a new skill, a new experience, seeing things from a different point of view, or exposing yourself to new people and ideas, it will benefit your brains pattern analysis and recognition capabilities.

At the end of the day consider this though; IQ is an old, antiquated unit of measurement from ~100 years ago when we knew extremely little facts about how the brain and intellect work, and instead supplanted truth with some very unscientific things.

>IQ is genetic
No, IQ is a score based on a test that can and has been trained for successfully. Potential intelligence (total neurons and brain arrangement) is genetic. IQ cannot accurately measure that.

This to, I’ve noticed he more I come to b the shittier my mental health gets. And yeah even just literally sitting out in the grass on a nice day makes you feel better

Piracetam
Ketosis
Curcumin
Modafinil
Choline
Intermittent Fasting
Broccoli lots of it
Play Chess, Sudoku etc... Daily every hour
Meditation
Cold Showers
NOFAP (mandatory)
Coconut Water for Electrolytes
Lear something completely unrelated to your profession
Coffee
Read
Zinc supplement
YouTube vids and Reddit helps (inb4whatever)
Avoid Aspartame
Avoid bad Carbs
Eat lots of dark chocolate (stress is bad for brain)
Lear another language Amigo te hará muy bien ya que pensaras de manera holistica y divergente!

This post really shows how low your intelligence is

Iq tests were designed to determine retardation

They can't accurate measure IQs over 110

you still can't even spell learn though

Get some noopept and some choline(alpha gpc is a good one.) Your brain will actually grow more neural connections on it. Just be careful you don't already have brain tumors, as it will make them grow as well, but the odds of those are low. I also recommend stacking caffeine with L-theanine and reading and writing as much as you can. Good luck user.

Define intelligence. IQ is mostly a measure of a person's problem solving skills.

>Relative scoring based on current norms cannot be measured post a certain level.
I think you tested positive for retardation.

sounds like intelligence friendo

Jeopardy level autism does not necessarily equate to high IQ. There is a difference.

Ketosis, if prolonged is very very bad for your body and your brain.
Prolonged abstinence from any form of sexual release is bad for your mental health (stress) which is bad for your intelligence. Reduction from obsessive daily fapping is beneficial but full nofap is toxic to a healthy mind if you don't have a squeeze to sling one up.

Literally everything else in this list is gold. Well done. This will help anyone reach their peak. It won't increase your maximum but it will help you reach it.

Genetics definitely parts a part, but for the average person experience with logic and puzzles at a young age while your mind is still elastic plays a much bigger role in your cognitive development where IQ is concerned. Unless, you were born full on retard or something similar.

You cant nigga. Its pretty overrated tho to be smart. I'm a middle of the line guy, and most dumb people I know are happier than the smart ones.

Be wise, not intelligent.

Explain. All powerful uber intellectual.

IQ tests have been proven to mean jack shit.

Getting off of Yea Forums would be a good start

IQ is a bad measure of intelligence.

If you want to get smarter faster, improve your learning methodologies.

If you want to learn only what's important, believe everything is about improving your likelihood of survival:
You require food, water, housing, sleep, work.
Look for ways to improve these fields for yourself and others.

Bro you LEARNED welding. That doesn't prove anything about your IQ. Someone with a higher IQ could learn the same thing in way less time. Learning a trade does not increase your IQ

IQ tests focus on simple black and white problems. Not real world ones.

> Fedora Chan Board

I achieved the highest level of education in the welding world. Hence why it takes 7 years idiot.

Study. Study literally anything and or everything you can.

If you're doing keto and are tired and thirsty a lot, you have acidified your blood and need to stop. It can lead to seizures, comas and death if accelerated (i.e. you start throwing up) but if you're even on the edge of ketoacidosis you're dampening brain function. Sorry but if your blood is even remotely acidified then those lovely ketones your liver is making because your brain is demanding a fuel it can actually use? Not all of them will make it to the brain. Additionally it is scientifically unanimous that all-cause mortality is significantly higher in patients in ketosis. Your brain wants glucose, it works best with glucose, ketosis is a short-term solution for burning fat or dealing with the problems of diabetes, NOT a long term dietary plan.

I have an IQ in the ranges of 16-170 on estimate. IQ tests don't work. Intelligence has 3 areas. Knowledge, ability to focus, and speed in which you accomplish mentally taxing tasks. I have wrote a few little pieces on this that I will now connect back to back.

2.8) On the mind, intelligence, improving intelligence and mental longevity:
First of all, let me get mental longevity out of the way. If your diet and physical exercise are strong,
combined with permenantly pushing to gain more and more knowledge, and to learn and improve your
cognitive function, you will achieve maximum mental longevity. That being said, allow me to introduce you
to intelligence.
Intelligence and smart are very cryptic words. They are some of those types of words that in order to teach the
definition of, you must say a variety of other similar words and slowly paint the image of what these words mean.
This is because they don't have a definitive definition. And so here is a rough explanation using various terms to
explain what they mean. Intelligence governs things like your knowledge, your ability to think, your cognitive function,
your spacial awareness, your creative and innovative abilities etc. So if I was to try to give you the knowledge of this
word, I would say one's intelligence is determined by the success in which they perform anything at all, related to the
use of the brain. That being said, there are many many areas in which someone can be smart and to lack in an area,
is not to be unintelligent. And so I will now go on to explain my theory on intelligence as well as why I dislike IQ tests, followed by a second
lesson on how to actually improve your intelligence, which as I said is also the way to also maintain it, and finally a technique
that allows for you to dominate in life that is related to intelligence.

My theory on intelligence:
Most believe that intelligence is genetic. This is most definitely true, however I would argue that to say those who have succeeded in
intelligence based endevours have done so due to them having superior, natural, genetic intelligence, is to speak mistruth. To
become the worlds greatest runner, is very simple. Yes, it requries technique, but once the basic level of technique has been developed,
it is simply a matter of which man has the best genetics to run as fast as possible. This makes olympic sprinting a sport that is almost
entirely determined by genetics. However, it is this way because of it's low ceiling of skill. The mind on the otherhand, is so absolutely
infinitely vast that I believe genetics cannot even compare with such a huge amount of possiblities when it comes to thinking and learning.
There is so much knowledge that can be learned, that it dwarfs genetic ability and makes your choices in life far more influencial in your
day to day intelligence than your genetics ever could.I believe that every man almost every man on earth can become a genius, and a good
portion of men on earth can become world-class levels of genius like various famous people throughout history, renowned for their intellect.

And what does that prove about your IQ?

Next one is apparently too long to post sorry. but this is the end of it.
And so to finalize, here is how to increase intelligence, not including the majority of this book:
1) Perform specific activities aimed at improving intelligence, ex: playing chess, taking a test, playing instruments
2) Read a lot
3) Think hard about things, focus and activate the brain a lot
4) Learn about as much knowledge as possible
5) Attempt to become smart. Those who actually try to become smart are always those who will be smart.

intelligence can't be measured .

see also : computational theory of equivalence .

if you want to be smarter , any stimulant drug will have this effect .

that includes lsd , although it will simultaneously make you useless .

PS. I was never genius as a child. I always disected how I thought about things from young but I was never impressive from a youngster. I did however become so after my early teen years once I began educating myself. Here's another piece on intelligence too from another chapter.
The intelligence investment:
You work on your strength to become stronger, correct? You run to become faster, right? You attempt to become
healthy by eating "healthy" meals, don't you? No you don't. What you do, is you prioritize learning. If you're smart, you
can learn how to become strong. If you're educated, you can learn how to diet for peak performance and health. If
you're intelligent, you can do ANYTHING. If you're intelligent, you can figure out the best way of becoming more
intelligent. Now that you've figured that out, and become more intelligent, you're now even more intelligent and can
further learn of better methods to become more intelligent. Learning compounds on itself. And then you can transfer it
to other areas of life. Knowledge is not power, knowledge is our ALL. Power is one thing, but to dedicate a life to
learning is to succeed at EVERYTHING. Not only will learning give you the ability to better learn whatever is needed to
do a certain thing, but just being smarter will make you more successful when flirting with the opposite sex, or when
trying to out-smart someone in a debate, or even when just trying to make friends and win socially.
I've developed many skills to high levels in my short time on earth. The reason I am so
proficient in many areas, is because the only thing I truly prioritized in my life is seeking knowledge and that
knowledge has allowed me to succeed in many areas by understanding the best method in which to improve at them.

any field that has a "highest level of education" is , by definition , shit .

blacks are white problems in the real world .

stfu faggot. nobody cares.

OP wants to know how to increase IQ. I increased my IQ. So OP cares. And thus, to conclude, eat shit faggot nerd.

no he's right. I've taken two tests, 147 and 164. They were slightly different tests but truth is when the tested is smarter than the test-maker then its no longer obvious if quicker-to-the-answer is a sign of intellegence.

i'll also say that above 130, interpersonal skills and how many redpills you've taken is far more important to reaching your life-potential than IQ.

IQ is fixed , idiot .

that's like trying to change the number of eggs in a dozen . if you take 2 IQ tests and get different scores , it doesn't mean your IQ changed . it means you're demonstrating the error in your measurement .

I'm a doctor who took up welding and tbh welding is pretty fucking hard. lots of variables. under appreciated as fuck.

>Intelligence and smart are very cryptic words. They are some of those types of words that in order to teach the
>definition of, you must say a variety of other similar words and slowly paint the image of what these words mean.
>This is because they don't have a definitive definition.

yay someone who understands how words work. This is a bigger super-power than high iq any day :3

yeah but being a doctor is not as hard as inventing a welding apparatus .

Oh you mean the way penis size is fixed? Yet you can take HGH, IGF-1 and DHT? Or how muscle size is fixed yet you can take testosterone or bodybuilding? IQ is by no means fixed. In fact, it is one of the most manipulable things about a person. If you know the information neccessary to answer a question and you can focus hard enough to do so, you can answer it.

better results the younger you start: read, learn an instrument, learn another language, do different and new things constantly. Physical health also has a factor. Sounds simplistic, but that is it. just don't let your brain stagnate. It literally becomes a hardened mass.(alzheimers/dementia)

"is to speak mistruth"

oh but you're still a faggot :)

Pretty high I guess?
It doesnt matter tho. Intelligence is embraced, applied and displayed in many different ways. Not just solving puzzles and math equations on a piece of paper to gain a score.

i agree. inventing is the harder than learning. welding is much harder than applying medicine. computers are diagnosing these days better than doctors...

do you living in Germany? :)

What is a cup? You'd describe it as an object used to fill with a liquid or something similar correct? It has a basic, obvious definition.
What is intelligence? Uhh, well it's success in spacial awareness, ability to focus, the amount of information someone knows, etc etc. All many completely different things. This is why I say this. Obviously to describe a word you have to say other words, but I'm saying that there is no obvious definition because intelligence isn't a thing, so you simply say many other things and get an idea of what it is.

Yes. It's to speak mistruth. That's correct. I'm guessing you think that doesn't, or that it's an error. Possibly you think this because you don't understand.

Welding isn't hard. But it requires high amounts of skill to apply it to more complex welds.
Theres a whole new level once you get behind the theory tho.

haha i feel sorry for you if your penis size is fixed .

i assume that means you can't get hard .
it figures .

>The tested is smarter than the test maker
Still irrelevant as the metrics are relative. If you answer with average speed and get an average number correct you will score 100. It doesn't matter how much smarter than the test maker you are. If you score a better time and score than literally every other human on earth (if every human took an IQ test and was an adult) then you'd be in the top 1/7,125,000,000. With 16 standard deviations from a 100 median you'll have a maximum, if you are THE best scorer IN THE WORLD, you will be smarter than any test maker, but anyone with an understanding of statistics will be able to tell you your IQ is just over 200, which you would be able to confirm. IQ IS RELATIVE.

Well, I'll tell you how to decrease an IQ.

Instill negative beliefs in a person. Make them feel unwanted, imperfect, and broken. Let their self-doubt and insecurities plauge their mind and lower their IQ almost instantly.

Shame critical thinking and increase the value of humor. Or, shame critical thinking and give value to sparing people's feelings over having the right answer to a question or a dilemma. This takes away the incentives of excercizing one's intelligence and it gives preference and value to stupidity and repression or the holding back of humanity.

Give value to normalcy and comfort weakness and stupidity. Basically, look at the intelligence bell-curve and give a comfort treat to the lower end, reward the middle where most people fall on in this IQ bell-curve, and thrust an over-bearing burden upon the higher end so as to hold them responsible for keeping the pace with the hoi poi who wants to progress as little as possible in reality. And this makes sense because society is mostly composed of that middle section on the IQ bell-curve so of course they will set up things so that they are on the receiving ends of rewards. And the lower IQ is comforted and cared for because shaming stupidity would put the pressure on people to be responsible adults. And people want to be taken seriously when struggling and take stupidity as a sign of status. Buying 50k diamond rings or pouring 50k of champagne into the toilet are practically the same thing in a sense. And people dream of doing one of these things.

Make it people's dream to do as little thinking as possible. Make it their dream to have a doctor, a plumber, an electrician, and a "personal coach" on their contacts list so that they can be pampered and cared for while never having to solve a problem through serious thinking.

This guy is full of shit. You can't reach ketoacidosis just from changing your diet. You need to have a pancreas problem. Look up dietary ketosis and ketoacidosis. The rest of way you're saying is correct but it is impossible to acidify your blood from eating low carbs

Where are my Nootropic bros

Well fuck you then

>Intelligence

retard

Absolutne bullshit. Parents forced me to play the piano when I was a kiddo. Meanwhile, my friend from a broken home with unemployed alcoholic parents didn't play shit.
I'd say I'm just a bit above average whereas he's a fucking genius. The guy always had best scores in math tests, maxed out his SATs, played chess and shit. It's all genetics.

And not to mention playing instruments requires good dexterity, not everyone has that ability. Although you can improve, like learning to write with both hands.

Give way and value to emotional outbursts. Is a crying mother advocating in favor and prohibition while a social scientist shows a positive correlation between prohibition and violence? Give preference to the mother's testimony because she is a mother and because she is crying. Don't let facts, statistics, and critical thinking take the lead in terms of judgement.

Give value to hard thinking instead of smart thinking. Want to learn some new school material or a decent education to prepare you for life? Well, get the hardest material because it "feels" like it might show you the most or get the easiest material because it "feels" like you know the most but never find a reasonable middle-ground where you are constantly growing at a steady pace. Be like most people. Give any new endeavour one hard try before giving up while refusing to accept any fault on your part or questioning the method. Just give up. Never question the method and take no fault for yourself while avoiding any new angles on the subject, while avoiding any modifications to your own attitude or the material presented and assume that life is always split into total perfection or total imperfection because teachers trained you like a dog to see a check-mark or a X as right or wrong without admitting the nuances that make a real difference in life. Although to be fair, teachers did start giving partial credit for partially correct answers as of lately as far as I am aware of. However, this seems to be a rather recent occurrence and it shows in which direction the wind is blowing. Not everything is an X or a check mark.

Holy shit which pseduo scientific cult tought you this newage bullshit...

It's been studied using twins. Although it's not very solid, the more then 50% of your intelligence in inherited from parents. How much above 50? nobody's completely sure. Try not to worry about it, because essentially past early childhood there's not much that can be done. As long as you're average or above, you'll do fine and can contribute meaningfully to the world in one manner or another. IQ fucked my motivation during adolescence, don't let the same thing happen yourself user.

Most of the time I'm thirsty but supposedly is because my body is breaking fat and go to the bathroom like 20 times per day and I'm smelly as fuck I have bad breath mostly and I've read this happens when you are losing weight through Ketosis and I'm losing weight but sometimes I eat carbs and I feel tired WHEN I EAT CARBS because my body switch from Keto to Glucose and supposedly my body is trying to save as much energy as possible to stop burning more fat, so is like I switch from keto to carbs everyday still I've been doing this for over a year, when I'm on full keto I feel happy, my mind is clear and energetic but when I switch to carbs the story change.

>It is impossible to acidify your blood by forcing your body to produce exclusively an acidic glucose substitute for your brain.
You are wrong, and that is why no dietician will ever recommend a ketotic diet as more than a temporary one.

green texting 2 words and calling him retarded? what point are you even trying to make?

> contribute to the world
Kek. First of all get rich and happy, then worry about 'the world'.

Because when you switch back to carbs your body goes into 'now we're safe we can afford to crash a little' mode, where it tries to recuperate from the damages done to your circulatory and nervous system by a ketotic diet.

any source on the girl?

Finally, give thousands of dollars per hour to women like these here pictured and charge thousands of dollars every few months to college students hoping to graduate and create meds to cure the crotch-rot and HIV that so many of these women get. This steers society away from education, advancement, and progress while guiding it towards and eventual catastrophe.

Do this, And you will have a dumb society on a collective level or a dumb person on an individual level.

Do the opposite, study, appreciate education, give value to critical thinking, shame impulsiveness and stupid thinking, expect to do your own thinking in life and prepare for it, expect and think according to nuances and not absolutes, and live life with the intent to stay ahead of the pack without holding back for the lower common denominator and you will have a greater incentive towards intelligence and away from stupidity. But of course, you will be surrounded by people who are dumber than you and that feels alot worse than being a dumb person who is surrounded by doctors to heal him, officers to protect him, and bosses to lead to him. Having people to look up to feels a lot better than being held down by the stupidity of others so enjoy being having your cake but being unable to eat it either way.
