[QUOTE="madman, post: 275979, member: 13851"] [U][B]Background:[/B][/U] [B]- 34yo male ([U]5ft9 & 132lbs[/U] /180cm & 60kg) - never been a vegetarian. [U]I eat mostly animal food[/U], no sugar, no gluten. Severe chronic illness since 2013: - extreme tissue fatigue/weakness - super-easily injured - unable to heal injuries - high noradrenaline - high dopamine - sympathetic hyperactive NS (Disautonomia) - negative for Lyme, autoimmune illness, etc....[/B] [I][B]*I have some other diagnosis, but they explain 10% of the severity of my symptoms. I'm tired of searching for the cause of my health problems.[/B][/I] [B][I][U]I want to start TRT and maybe Nandrolone, so I can get stronger and be able to drive a car and live a more normal life[/U].[/I][/B] Just to be clear no AAS would be a testosterone substitution. The main reason testosterone is used for replacement therapy over nandrolone let alone any other AAS is that testosterone drugs provide a hormone that is already produced in the body. More importantly, its metabolites estradiol and DHT are needed in healthy amounts to experience the full spectrum of testosterone-beneficial effects on (cardiovascular health, brain health, libido, erectile function, bone health, tendon health, immune system, lipids, and body composition). [I][B]*Natural testosterone is viewed as the best androgen for substitution in hypogonadal men. The reason behind the selection is that [/B][/I][U][B][I]testosterone can be converted to DHT and E2, thus developing the full spectrum of testosterone activities in long-term substitution[/I][/B][/U] [B][I]*Preparations of [U]native testosterone or its esters[/U] (aromatizable T) should be used for TTh[/I][/B] Yes, having healthy FT levels will have a significant impact on your physical/mental health but if you want to improve your overall health then adding some muscle mass and increasing your strength is where it's at. Hate to burst your bubble here but you would need to get your diet in check let alone a sound training protocol to take advantage of the anabolic properties of T let alone ND. You weigh a buck35 and there is no way you are going to pack on any size following a keto let alone a carnivore-based diet. Meeting your daily protein requirements, consuming healthy fats, especially the EFAs, and taking in enough calories which should include an ample amount of starchy carbs is where it's at if your goal is to add muscle mass/increase strength. Again forget getting caught upon the ND as you need to be more concerned with having a healthy FT level. [/QUOTE]
