Sup my Sunlight Samurai! Are you still getting lots of sunlight? Have you noticed any T and libido-boosting benefits since upping your sunlight exposure?

Probably best to assume sunlight brightness is optimal for circadian rhythm still, (faster effects at that brightness?), but studies have shown light from standard lightbulbs give significant effects on circadian rhythm still, especially if around 500 lux which looks to give full effects in...
I recenty listened to an Andrew Huberman podcast, where he mentioned sunlight exposure (especially in the morning) as beeing very good for your hormonal state.
I found this study in his podcast notes.
They irradiated mice with UVB light, that was equivalent to about 20-25 minutes of midday sun...
Living in the north and looking out my window today at 3 PM and it being nearly pitch black outside really made me think: how is this sustainable? Vitamin D supplements just raise the number on my labs but do absolutely nothing to me compared to sunlight. Obviously Vitamin D isn't the only thing...
This is really one thing most men can benefit more from.

Despite the massive censorship all over the Internet, there have been plenty of articles and studies on vitamin D and its role in COVID-19. Several studies reported that at least 9 in 10 of hospitalized patients have severe vitamin D deficiency. In addition, a few small studies demonstrated that...
Some time ago I posted about avoiding sunlight being as bad for systemic health as smoking a pack of cigarettes a day. The study below corroborates that view, but with a focus on colon cancer risk and vitamin D. Namely, avoiding sunlight exposure results in much lower vitamin D, which is...
At noontime, when the sun's out in full force, where there's not even a shadow as the sun is directly above, I would go out and get my fill of sunshine and the vitamin D benefits of it. This is usually where the UV index is highest, and where I get the most vitamin D produced in the shortest...
Hi guys,
I haven't been writing a lot of articles lately since I've got a lot on my plate atm. Soon I'll start writing more again, but in the meanwhile, I'm relatively active on my YT channel.
I thought I'd share this vid about stress management since keeping stress at bay is one of the most...
Pulling the ripcord on this one just a tad early considering the next package of information/ experience/practice I've accrued has come to another stopping point.
Here are some recent pictures as things continue to improve daily:

It's known that many have associated the feeling of warmth with comfort -- and plenty even associate this pleasant warmth/sense of well being with or after supplementing thyroid.
I have found a liking to "manual" heating methods, however, such as hot showers and heating devices/external...
Hi all,
Not only can dopamine levels be an issue, but also dopamine sensitivity. Often times there can be a dopamine hypo-sensitivity, so I've written an article on how to increase dopamine receptors.

A great study that corroborates my recent post on avoiding sunlight being as bad for health as smoking a pack of cigarettes a day. After all, without sunlight there won't be much vitamin D synthesis and supplementation is not effective for many people due to variety of factors including excess...
As most readers of this blog know, the current recommendations of the American Dermatology Association (ADA) call for pretty much no sun exposure of any skin areas unless those areas have been "protected" by sunscreen. The same recommendation applies to tanning beds and makes not distinction of...
Several people asked Peat over email about the dangers of sun exposure. He responded by saying that the main danger is the lipid (PUFA) perodixation caused by the UV lights and that taking some aspirin, vitamin E, or niacinamide greatly reduces the damage.
The study below confirms that PUFA may...
The link between sunlight exposure and incidence of MS is well-known and strongly pointed to a metabolic origin of the disease as early as the 1960s. It led to a few underpowered trials with low dose vitamin D, which did not find much benefit. However, a recent trial with a higher dose (10,000...
