Began 'peating' in December.
AST - 48 (0-40) (was in 20's in November)
ALT - 66 (00-44) (was in 20's November)
Trigs - 334 (0-149) was in lower 100's in November)
Iron, Serum - 211 (38-169)
Iron, Saturation - 62 (15-55)
Transferrin Saturation, Calculated - 62 (<50)
CRP - .42 (0-3) (phew)
Ferritin - 119 (30-400)
It looks like iron overload but ferritin is good. Liver enzymes are up. Trigs are outrageously high but other lipids look fine (LDL at 108, HDL low at 40 however). I feel like I am following Peat's and this forums strategies pretty good and yet seeing weird results like these. Not posting this to bash on Peat because I think the guy is a genius but just confused in where I have gone wrong. I am feeling pretty good for the most part. Below I will list medications, supplements, diet and lifestyle. Age 26 Male.
Meds/supplements:
-on TRT (testosterone came back at a modest ~700)
-NDT, 3 grains, spread throughout day. I need to cut back and plan on doing so immediately. My TSH is completely suppressed but more importantly my FT3 is way over the range at 5.3 and RT3 is high at 19.
-vitamin A 10,000iu, every other day
-vitamin D 5,000iu, every day
-Thiamine 300mg, every day
-B-complex 100, every day
-Magnesium complex every night
Diet:
-oatmeal every morning with fruit, milk, coconut oil and chocolate (semi-sweet)
-I eat a good amount of beef every day it seems (try to pair it with gelatin when I can)
-I eat a couple eggs pretty much every day
-I eat at chipotle a good bit (try to go low pufa as possible)
-other random, low pufa meals made at home
-Peat approved fruit though I do still eat bananas
-Lots of 1% milk and lots of coffee
-A good amount of orange juice and coke, though I try to drink that with meals
-Hagen Daz (however you spell that) ice cream 5 nights a week on average
Lifestyle:
-I drink maybe one night a week, usually beer in large amounts. Not the best thing for health but gotta live.
-Pushups and other body weight training every day
-Cardio - either basketball, tennis or soccer - 3/4 days a week
-Married, try to have sex every night but erections have been poor lately despite being on a good TRT protocol in numbers
