    Testosterone and androgens increase, estrogen lowers Taurine

    A big part of the taurine in our body comes from our bodies synthesizing it from the amino acids methionine and cysteine via different enzymes. Peat has often talked about the harmfull effects of those two amnino acids in particular. In contrast, he had more good things to say about the amino...

    Hormonal birth control puts women in chronic stress, by blocking progesterone synthesis

    A truly remarkable study as it exposes so many lies that Big Pharma and its medical accomplices would rather not become public knowledge. Since most hormonal birth control (pills, patches, IUD, injections, etc) contain a combination of an estrogen and a synthetic progestin, it implicates both...

    Low progesterone, not low estrogen, drives night sweats, insomnia of menopause

    Every time I see a study like this I catch myself singing the glorious Queen lyrics "...another one bites the dust". In this case, what bytes the dust is the pernicious myth that estrogen deficiency drives many of the features of menopause - from the more benign symptoms such as insomnia, night...

    Why is male HRT so easy, compared to female HRT?

    Hello everyone. I wanted to ask via a reply to this post: If Estrogen Is So Bad, Why Does It Immediately Help but cannot because of new account restriction, so I'm making this, I hope it's in the right topic. Why is it that a lot of older men just do Testosterone + AI or Testosterone only and...

    Low androgens, not low estrogens, linked to heart disease in aging women

    One of the most pernicious myths medicine created (and has been promoting for the last century) is that menopause is a condition of estrogen "deficiency". Other, similarly pernicious myths are that estradiol is a "female" hormones while testosterone is a "male" hormone. These myths have...

    Vitamin E may prevent, treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by restoring the gut barrier

    This is one of those studies where the most important finding is not directly stated, but implied. Namely, if healing the gut barrier, as the study says, may prevent/treat RA then the condition is most likely tied to the microbiome in our GI tract. More specifically, to the byproducts of the...

    Blocking estrogen (and/or taking DHEA) prevents menopausal obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, etc

    A remarkable study, which for a reasonable person should unilaterally invalidate the mainstream dogma that menopause is a condition of estrogen "deficiency", and that most of the symptoms associated with menopause (of which osteoporosis, infertility, obesity and insulin resistance are among the...

    How to increase estrogen in a safe way? DHEA, boron?

    This might be a strange question on here but I would like to hear your opinions on raising E2 levels in a safe way. I have a joint paint, low libido and not much of energy. All of these problems were probably caused by using Vitaming E, aspirin, AI and then my testing of several transdermal...

    Atherosclerosis linked to high estrogen/cortisol/serotonin, low androgens

    The findings of the study are not surprising, but I wanted to post it on the blog since it is one of the few studies I have seen that examined more than one of the "sickness" mediator levels in a major chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), and found all of them to be elevated...

    Muscular dystrophy may be driven by estrogen

    Aside from implicating estrogen in yet another "mysterious" chronic, incurable condition the study below is also worth considering due to the fact that the cases it looked at were all "hereditary" muscular dystrophy. Why put hereditary in quotes? Well, because as the study makes it quite clear...

    I know that Aromatase Inhibitors (AI) lower estrogen in serum, but how do we lower the overall estrogenic activity if estrogen is a paracrine hormone?

    Is summing estradiol, estrone, and estriol the right way to calculate total estrogen levels in serum?

    I was looking at some old estrogen tests I had done, and noticed the the total estrogens doesn't match with the sum of estradiol and estrone, even if they are measured in the same units. Does anyone know if the total estrogens is supposed to be the arithmetic sum of estradiol, estrone, and...
