Help me interpret my Blood tests (Symptoms after meals, panic attacks & more)
Hello there lovely people, as I mentioned in my first post on this forum, for about three years I have been having some symptoms that at times have been quite severe. At first my symptoms were simply and only skin issues on my hands, ankles and feet for about two years. Since I didn't get to...- Can

Negative childhood experiences accelerate aging/disease in humans
I am posting this study mostly as a counterexample to all the drivel coming out of gerontology research circles. Namely, the dogma is that biological aging is overwhelmingly influenced/determined by genes and cannot really be retarded (pun intended) or accelerated by the environment. This dogma...- haidut

IdeaLabs Service - Steroid Analysis (hair and/or (toe)nail)
Note (5/27/2022): This launch is Part I of a two-part service - steroid analysis in hair or nails. While we have confirmed our ability to analyze steroids in both types of samples, nail steroid analysis is still in its scientific infancy and there are very few publications on the topic. As such... -
SHBG may be a good test for liver (metabolic) health
A very good study, which probably runs counter to the "mantra" most bodybuilders adhere to - i.e. they would say one must keep their SHBG low in order to increase levels of "free" steroids since, the claim goes, only free steroids are active and capable of influencing cells. If SHBG is high, the...- haidut

Upregulated serotonin synthesis may be a biomarker for breast cancer

Elevated ESR And HCG Levels Are Strong Predictors Of Impending Cancer Diagnosis

While Estradiol Falls, Estrone Rises With Age And Is Much More Relevant For Estrogen-driven Diseases

However, for some reason the medical industry is obsessed with estradiol and since...- haidut

A Lab Test For Endotoxin Exposure, And Its Role In HIV/AIDS
While I was researching some other topics related to the article on statins and TLR4 that I posted last week, I stumbled upon a biomarker called "soluble CD14" or sCD14 for short.

High Norepinephrine Can Be Used To Diagnose Fibromyalgia

Biomarkers Of Muscle And Liver Insulin Resistance

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Linked To High Serotonin

Changes In Thiamine Levels May Be The First Sign Of Type I Diabetes
The study is focusing on the fashionable topic of "microbiome analysis", which is most likely a fad that won't lead to any breakthrough cures.
