    you need to avoid seed oils (PUFA's)

    @Gman: cooked white with skin. mashed. i think i take them off my list. I had less issues with baked sweet potatoes, but they did not feel good on GI either, just less bloated/foggy. I focus on 'gym' carbs too. i'm not super informed in that carb science, but fructose has a slower muscle pathway...

    you need to avoid seed oils (PUFA's)

    I noticed this too. there is some veggies which give me instant digestive issues, farts, loose stools etc. things like broccoli, some roots, etc. while I eat them somewhat rarely, potatoes give me instant bloating/brain fog and a 3lb weight gain (prob not fat) which persists for 3 days after...

    you need to avoid seed oils (PUFA's)

    you need to avoid seed oils (PUFA's)

    I would be open to the idea, that olive oil, avocados, fish is beneficial. so those 5 studies essentially point to a small benefit of saturated fats vs unsaturated. then the author of the article (not the study) still throws out the claim that pufa's might be beneficial, while linking to a study...

    you need to avoid seed oils (PUFA's)

    there is really no evidence that saturated fat or animal protein is bad. most of those studies typically feed people a SAD diet, full of processed shit, add a steak and then blame the steak for whatever health issues those people have. those 'double placebo controlled studies' are similar to a...

    you need to avoid seed oils (PUFA's)

    exercise more eat less while sounds amazing, it simply does not work. every fat person knows this rule already. most tried. they failed. blame willpower all you want. i embarked on a weight loss journey about 6 months ago. I tried many different approaches. keto, tracking (eat everything)...

    you need to avoid seed oils (PUFA's)

    this is an anecdote but since avoiding nearly all PUFA's about a year ago, I get 0 sunburn. i tan darker, and typically could do 2h in the sun. i can 4-6h now. there is thousands of anecdotes confirming the same. what is the mechanism? highly unstable fats which do oxidize when exposed to UV...

    20mg Cialis daily?!?

    10mg is the sweet spot for me. cialis due to half life levels at 1.6x when taken daily. so you look at a steady level of 32mg when taken daily vs if you would take then once. pretty high. i used to get bad s/x, back pain, sinus issues, but they got much milder. i take 10mg 2-3x a week now

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
