    Deprenyl – Peatarian-Safe?

    Has anyone asked Ray Peat his opinion about this drug? Would he think it is safe for long term usage? Do you think it is safe, and good to use as a nootropic?

    Lanosterol - Liquid Lanosterol For Lab/R&D

    I guess most people on the forum who have heard of lanosterol know it in the context of treating cataracts. Lanosterol - Wikipedia There is a company out there who used to sell lanosterol as eye drops and it is insanely expensive - $100 for a meager 10mg lanosterol. Anyways, lanosterol is...

    Ritanserin - Serotonin Antagonist For R&D Use Only

    As promised, I finally got around to releasing the unicorn of the anti-serotonin world - i.e. the chemical known as ritanserin. It does not have a trade name as it is a research/lab chemical only and was never submitted for approval by the FDA. However, research with ritanserin is thriving and...

    Vitamin D Is Dopaminergic And Decreases Obesity And Addiction Behaviors

    Over the last few years, I have posted studies on the forum showing that the vitamin E, A, and K all have dopaminergic activity that contributes to their positive effects on metabolism and health. This study discovered that vitamin D is another potent dopamine agonist, and that its dopaminergic...

    Prolactin As A Causative Agent In Prostate Cancer

    Just wanted to post this, given the almost perfect correlation between prolactin and expression of estrogen "receptors" in tissues. If prolactin is a causative agent in prostate cancer, than the current idea of treating prostate cancer with estrogen is laughable. I also posted a study showing...

    Aspirin Is Dopaminergic; Additive Effects With Caffeine

    It is a well established fact that caffeine is dopaminergic in effect even though it does not bind directly to any dopamine "receptors". It looks like aspirin is also dopaminergic. As you can see from the study, using aspirin alone required doses equivalent do 5g - 6g in a human. However, in a...

    Vitamin A is dopaminergic and reduces prolactin in humans

    In theory, anything that reduces prolactin will likely also reduce estrogen and vice versa. So, since vitamin A is anti-estrogenic I wondered if there is evidence that vitamin A will lower prolactin and/or increase dopamine. Below is some evidence that vitamin A is indeed dopaminergic and lowers...
