    Lipolysis / FFA Drive Breast Cancer By Promoting Estrogen Signalling

    The evidence for the fat-loving nature of cancer just keeps on accumulating. During the last podcast with Danny and Ray, I mentioned that in cancer cells the enzyme fatty acid synthase (FAS) is actually part of the estrogen receptor (ER) complex. As such, anything that increases the...

    Muscles & Health: Overview, Theories, Development, Etc

    So it seems some here have attacked Peat's general ideologies in respect to "muscle gainz" in a way -- i.e. some here discredit him because "his diet" doesn't necessarily encourage significant muscle growth in all (although I'd say here that almost no "diet" per se does this magically for...

    Male Sexual Function Does NOT Require Estrogen

    It is a "sacred" mantra in the medical and sports worlds - i.e. "estrogen is crucial for males, without it they won't have any sex life". This mantra is also part of the justification given for the currently ongoing COVID-19 clinical trials with males receiving estrogen in the hope it will...

    Estrogen And Histamine, Not HPV, Drive Cervical Cancer

    A few months ago, I did a post about a study which made the bold claim that estrogen instead of HPV is the actual cause of the (often deadly) cervical cancer. According to that study, HPV infection is at best permissive and at worst simply an (largely innocent) bystander. A statement like this...

    Tapering Off Letrozole

    Alright, so I've been using letro for the past few weeks to reduce some gyno I had developed a few years back, and to great avail. Problem is, the moment I start tapering I seem to get a rebound which also seems to be causing the gyno to return. I've had to go back to 2.5mg a day again just...

    Long Chins, Big Ears, Long/narrow Faces = GH, Estrogen?

    I notice some feature mix ups and combinations. Guys with stronger jaws (not sure about women though) tend to have larger ears, but there are guys with big ears and longer chins (downward protruding more than forward) that lack the same jaw types and facial broadness. Since the effects of GH...

    Tribulus Terrestris (TT) Increases Estrogen?

    I have never been able to fully understand yet Tribulus Terrestris. As @haidut explained and proved here, Tribulus Terrestris could increase DHT, decrease prolactin and increase dopamine, all of which are antagonist to estrogen (at least as far as I know). Despite that, there's numerous...

    How To Make Sure You Detox Estrogen Effectively

    Estrogen is detoxed through the liver. It gets conjugated with glucuronic acid which makes it easier to eliminate from the body. However, there is an enzyme in the body that re-activates the detoxed estrogen. I wrote a short article discussing how to inhibit that enzyme to allow proper estrogen...

    I know that the fat content of the meat is more estrogenic when a cow is fed grain, but is the milk also even though the cow has 7 stomachs, rumen, etc?

    Estrogen, Not Androgens, May Be The Cause Of Baldness

    A quick post about a study calling into question yet another dogma in medicine - i.e. that the "evil" androgens (especially DHT) are the causes of men losing their hair and getting prostate cancer.

    Anti-histamines May Prevent, Treat Melanoma

    About 2 years ago I did a post discussing the hypothesis that melanoma is an endocrine tumor, similar to breast cancer - i.e. driven by estrogen.
