Have you heard of the NMR Lipid Panel? Check out this link: http://www.lipoprofile.com/nmr-lipoprofile-test/patients This panel goes a little deeper than a regular lipid panel

Original article link: http://defymedical.com/resources/health-articles/113-food-guidelines-for-optimal-health Here are some tips to keep yourself in optimal health as you age. Never skip meals: skipping meals will force your body into starvation mode and cause your metabolism to...

Hey Tom, it all depends on the reason for your lipid issues. Taking all of the supplements will improve your cholesterol from different angles as each one works differently. I have seen lipids improve with just omega-3 supplentation and/or just niacin (along with diet modifications). So I...

Hey Joe, if you want to save money you can order any blood test directly from Defy Medical. They will send you to a Labcorp close to your home. The cost for Estradiol Sensitive is $30. Here is a price list for other commonly ordered hormone tests...

Hey Chris- CALM injections do work, however they are not too practical to take regularly. I usually take 2ML using a 5/8" needle and within roughly 5 min after injection you feel "heavy" and relaxed. As with all injectable nutrients the efficacy depends on how you metabolize the nutrients...

Prostate cancer is a rare occurrence, I would consider prostatitis or another type of inflammation first. Prostatitis is a more common issue and coincidentally we have been seeing more men who have it lately. Your doctor should be able to diagnose prostatitis, or at least rule out anything...

Hi Joe I would not be concerned with a total testosterone of 1052. I assume you were concerned because it may be flagged as too high on your lab reference ranges, but keep in mind those reference ranges are skewed. They are based upon the mean demographic of patients who complete that specific...

Jeff, if you request a "lipoderm" based cream from the compounding pharmacy, which is a very common carrier, you should not require a moisturizer as lipoderm will not dry your skin like alcohol based gels.

Absorption with topical hormones can vary greatly between patients, and there is no identifiable factor (that I know of) to predict this. The rule of thumb among pharmacists is roughly 10% of the applied topical dosage actually absorbs transdermally (in a perfect situation). This means if you...

This article was written in 2004 at a time when HCG was being used as a mono-therapy for TRT. Most "Anti-Aging" clinics at the time, including Cenegenics, did not have a comprehensive understanding of TRT and primarily prescribed HCG by itself for treatment of low testosterone. Of course this...

I agree, its too soon to establish the correlation between your T injections and your symptoms. Believe it or not, your symptoms could be prostatitis which is very common in men (see Nelsons post above). These types of symptoms can also occur as a result of "referred pain" from a lower back...

It is liposomal which allows the hormone to enter the cell with being altered without a C-17 alkaloid. I am curious to see if has a timed release or will need to be dosed BID to keep levels stable.

Not to answer for Shaun but I believe Empower does compound both alcohol and HRT base cream. One suggestion is to combine both the alcohol based gel and the HRT cream base into a hybrid Gel/Cream. The blend doesn't dry to fast as does the gel, and it also shouldn't leave a residue like the...

I found these blogs on our website discussing testing and customization, the first article contains a Genova brochure for their comprehensive nutritional testing: http://defymedical.com/resources/health-articles/62-customize-your-vitamin-regimen-with-nutritional-testing...

We provide Genova lab testing, a company which has an array of testing panels which analyze vitamins, amino-acids, food allergies, and other specialty testing. Samples are taken via urine, blood, and/or saliva. You would receive a test kit in the mail which would be taken to a local lab for...

One of the pharmacies we use, APS meds, had a bad batch of labels which faded easily. It sounds like you received one of these bottles. The pharmacy should be responsible for sending you appropriate replacement labels, however I will ask the nurse to forward you a copy of your prescription so...

Very interesting. I have not heard of this peptide but am familiar with nootropic medications (smart drugs). Noopept appears to be a Piracetam analogue, or at least similar in effect as Piracetam. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piracetam. Piracetam has been used for anti-aging in the US for...

I forgot to mention that it is still good to supplement the oral NAC in between (and during) especially if you have a higher level of toxicity and/or low GSH levels due to illness etc. It will help maintain levels.

You can definitely inject GSH subq, I personally take it this way (or IV) as I also don't like taking so many IM injections. 1ML daily SC for 30-90 days will work. Just be aware that GSH can be slightly irritating at the injection site so you may experience a little bruising and soreness...

Glutathione is best administered via injection. It absorbs very poorly when administered orally, only a small fraction would be bio-available. Im not too familiar with the inhalers. Glutathione is very fragile so it must be stored in the fridge and used within the listed shelf-life (usually...

You can get a sperm test at Labcorp, in some areas, pretty cheap. That is a great way to gauge production and response to therapy. Like Nelson stated hcg mimics LH so it will suppress gonadotropins in labs, but the hcg is indeed stimulating your testicles. You just have to understand if they are...

Are you still taking the pain medication? This is important to know prior to the next step. If you are not currently on opioids and NOT primary, you can temporarily come off TRT using a more aggressive stimulation protocol, typically tailored to the individual using at least one or a combo of...

You can try HCG then clomiphene stimulation to see if you can jump start your system. The majority of cases end up needed one of those medications long term to maintain as levels fall back to baseline upon cessation. The only time levels stay elevated is when the cause of HH is due to...
