    Cistanche increases steroidogenic enzymes, lowers NO, helps osteoporosis and Alzheimer's

    I posted these studies in another thread, but I feel they deserve their own thread as they show that cistanche is helping the body on a systemic level. A few new studies on cistanche tubulosa: This one shows that cistanche increases biosynthesis of testosterone by increasing important...

    PUFA Inhibit Progesterone Production And Thus Drive/cause Menopause

    Peat wrote in a few of his articles that menopause is largely driven by a deficiency of progesterone and mentioned several anecdotes of women in their 50s and 60s getting their periods back after supplementing with large doses progesterone. In one of his articles he said that PUFA and estrogen...

    Acetaminophen (Tylenol) Depletes DHEA-S And Other Sulfated Steroids

    It is well-known that in animal studies acetaminophen has a potent anti-androgenic and feminizing effect. In some animal models it also reliably causes autism-like symptoms. Given its widespread use and heavy marketing by hospitals, especially to pregnant women (due to its lack of effect on...

    Cells Have Memory, And Memories Of Past Conditions Affect Future Response

    Pregnenolone, Progesterone And DHEA Drop, Cortisol Rises In Aging

    I posted a few times about the steroidal characteristics of aging. Many people think there is a drop in testosterone (T) in aging and that is what drives the frailty of aging both in men and women. However, numerous studies show that that total T does not decrease with aging. What does seem to...

    Unsaturation = Estrogenic, Saturation = Androgenic

    Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Can Be Caused Quite Easily By Change In Hormones

    If you ask a neurologist she/he will tell you that nobody knows the cause of MS, and if you ask about the role of hormones the doctor will probably give you blank stare and flatly deny that they have a causative or therapeutic role (except for cortisol as acute treatment). Ray, on the other...

    PPI Drugs (anti GERD) Powerfully Inhibit Steroidogenesis

    I have always been suspicious of PPI drugs. There are many reasons for it, including the falsified clinical trial data to conceal increased risk of gastric cancer, the idiotic premise that gastric acid increases with age, the kidney failure side effects, and the calcium/magnesium depletion being...
