    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    Never noticed anything bad from it so no reason to cut it out

    No. I'm off all full fat dairy atm.

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    Again, my guess is hypertension, gut issues, offending food or supplement possibly.

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    There are many antigenic components to dairy that can affect sensitive people including casein, beta-casomorphins, lactoalbumins, lactoglobulins, etc. Unless one does extensive esoteric testing, one would never know which component. I've have observed no deleterious reactions to raw fermented...

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    Delayed IgG4 food sensitivity testing, while not 100% accurate, can help pinpoint those delayed symptoms. I also test for inflammatory cytokines but haven't seen any of them elevated enough to pinpoint a culprit nor have I observed any untoward reactions to foods. That doesn't mean I don't have...

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    My first entry into alternative health was 40 years ago when the first cytotoxic food allergy tests became available to the public, and since, have taken every food allergy test out there, thus, I am no stranger to food intolerances and sensitivities. I learned about the 4-5 day rotation and...

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    Ok. Now on the raw dairy - I do consume it, however, only cultured (kefir, yogurt) in which the microbes metabolize lactose to lactic acid, leaving virtually no lactose. At least that's what's supposed to happen. It's the milk proteins itself that I am concerned with.

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    hsCRP 2-3. Yes, tried all the diets over the years and nothing seems to move the needle. No known chronic infections, T2D. Only thing I can think of is hypertension which I'm already treating but systolic remains elevated. BP:135-140/70-75. Could also perhaps be gut issues, but that's like...

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    Many years of doing that and more has made zero difference, otherwise wouldn't have to resort to pharma at this point.

    Cialis muscle pain

    I just started on a combination of tadalafil-vardenafil 2.5mg qd. One of the very common side effects is headache (due to the vasodilatory effect). On day 3, I started experiencing intermittent bouts of ice pick headaches on the left temporal side of my skull which only lasted for 10 min. then...

    FINALLY an anti-inflammatory drug protecting against heart attacks and strokes

    Is anyone currently taking it? I have a scrip of 0.6mg. Lipidologist suggested it for reducing hsCRP, the #1 non-specific marker for inflammation, but have been hesitant to start because of some of the side effects, although I suspect it's term and dose-dependent. Low...

    Strange enclomiphene side effect

    Test, don't guess. This is all supposition & means nothing until you actually get blood work done. In my case, enc. raises E2 due to T aromatization.

    Acetic acid 0.6% vs bac water solution for peptides

    How many of you are using acetic acid solution as opposed to bac water for your peptides? Consensus of opinion is that AA provides longer shelf life for IGF peptides. Can't seem to find any actual studies on this.

    Enclomiphene dose

    Until I went with 25mg enclo ED, nothing less moved the needle to optimize androgen levels. But I wonder if my floaters increased despite the lack of reports that enclo causes them unlike clomid. Just getting rid of the estrogenic isomer (zuclo) should be safe enough.

    Too much T3 causing high blood pressure?

    The goal was to optimize TSH. That was the only # that was off. rT3 averages about 15. Feel ok. I just think systolic is a little higher than I'd like (135-140); diastolic in the high 70s. I will report back with my split trial and see if my a.m. systolic reading drops from less T3 from the NDT...

    Too much T3 causing high blood pressure?

    Known side effect of excess T3. So I've been on 162.5mg (2.5 grains) first thing in a.m. on empty stomach. Observing elevated systolic BP, but normal diastolic, normal HR. Although TSH is optimized, I am wondering if the isolated systolic hypertension if from the peak plasma concentration of...

    enclomphiene moving to Test

    What stopped you from going to 25mg and seeing if that would've boosted your levels first before throwing in the towel?

    Enclomiphene citrate 5 week progress and questions.

    64 y/o. I had been trialing enc since July of last year and for the same reasons you state. TRT is also not off the table if I don't see consistent optimization not only in blood work, but in subjective observation. I started at 12.5mg and soon increased to 25mg because I wasn't seeing any...

    BPC/TB for tendonitis/trigger finger

    How old are you? 64 y/o here. No one knows trigger finger better than me at this point. I have had TF surgery on 7 digits to date. I thought I was amongst the minority of men who get this since it mainly affects older women. I haven't known too many lifters who've complained of it, but perhaps...

    TMAO finally conquered

    It's up to you. I just posted my personal results and not everyone will have the same result. But if you're asking me, I would err on the side of caution no matter and avoid the oral forms and get them from food or injections. The bioavailability is so poor with oral anyway which is in addition...

    TMAO finally conquered

    Carnitine for fat oxidation and mitochondrial support. GPC and Citicholine for my PEMT deficiency and cognitive enhancement.

    TMAO finally conquered

    To cut to the quick: Only when I completely eliminated all exogenous oral supplementation of both choline and carnitine and started using injectable forms of both in the last 45 days did my TMAO levels finally normalize. Even cutting back on oral form did little to change my levels. Not only...

    Normal creatine kinase enzymes, but moderately elevated total CK

    The part I cannot understand is how can my CK levels be slightly elevated, but my CK isozenymes are all within range, or in the case of CK-MM which is specific to muscle damage, was low. In other words, if I had muscle injury, my CK-MM would be elevated. My concern now is with doing large...

    Normal creatine kinase enzymes, but moderately elevated total CK

    Thanks, Nelson. Yes, I train 4-5 day/s week, but never had an increase before. I also do carnitine and other nutrient injections and am thinking IM injections may cause a rise as well.

    Normal creatine kinase enzymes, but moderately elevated total CK

    Follow up testing with the following interpretation: Presence of atypical electrophoretic band consistent with macro - CK Type I, 8 % of total CK. Anybody have a clue what the heck this means?

    Whole Milk vs Skimmed Milk: Effect on Cholesterol and Blood Sugar Level

    The best dairy to consume is raw, unpasteurized, full fat, cultured (i.e. yogurt, kefir) and preferably from a non-bovine (non-cow) source (goat, sheep). I get all my dairy from this Amish farm in PA: Raw Milk, Organic & Grassfed Beef | Pasture Raised - HARMONY ACRES

    Normal creatine kinase enzymes, but moderately elevated total CK

    Those more familiar with CK. Results below. Liver and kidney markers all within range. How can totals CK be elevated if the CK enzymes are within range? Perhaps a high protein diet and dehydration from fasting for the test can cause elevated total but normal enzymes? If it was from heavy...

Understanding Your Hormones

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.
