    Do you regret having a child?

    All things considered, if you could go back in time, would you still choose to have offspring?

    Why did Ray choose not to have a child?

    I think this is an important topic, and I think, as a biologist and thinker, he may have interesting thoughts about having offspring. Has anyone asked Ray Peat about his choice of not having a child, and his thoughts on having offspring in general?

    PUFA are remarkably estrogenic, toxic to the ovaries

    One of the few studies that looks into the issue of whether the xenoestrogenic burden we are exposed to 24x7 in Western countries is due entirely to synthetic, industrial chemicals or if there is more to the story. Well, there is definitely more to the story, and the additional evidence we have...

    Sexual activity and stress levels (HPA activity) may determine longevity

    The study below tried to tease out the main factors affecting the longevity of the legendary naked mole rat - the animal with longest lifespan in its genus, and the sole mammal known to be virtually immune to developing cancer.

    Fertility Depends On Metabollism (ATP), Not Age

    As many of you know, there are 2 fundamental dogmas in reproductive medicine. One is that every woman is born with a fixed number of eggs and those cannot be replenished. The second one is that there is a biological fertility clock in every woman that inexorably ticks, and if the female does not...

    Early Life On Earth Developed For Optimal Reproduction, Not Competition

    One of the mainstream tenets of neo-Dariwinism is the never-ending competition of all life forms for resources and procreation. This tenet is so pervasive, it affects virtually all aspects of social, business and scientific activity in modern societies. However, the study below shows that early...

    Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) Reduces Lipofuscin, May Extend Lifespan

    There are few reliable treatments of the so-called "age spots" officially known as lipofuscin. Ray has written about the role of iron, PUFA and estrogen in the formation of this skin pigment and has suggested that vitamin E may be one possible treatment. Now we can add vitamin B2 to the list of...
