    Injecting Test Cypionate 2X Weekly

    Studies on fish oil

    Vince, good post. I can 100% attest that this has worked for me. I am 35 and have been taking 4-5 grams of fish oil per day for year and my lipids have greatly improved. My triglycerides have been cut by 40%. Cholesterol will naturally raise with high fish oil supplementation.

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.
