Testosterone, Anecdotes, and Growth

There is a rumor that Ray Peat grew taller when he was experimenting with DHEA, in his fifties. When I read some of the K2 megadosing experiences in bone health forums, I found anecdotes of people growing after 40 or 50. Both DHEA and K2 increase testosterone production, I wonder if that's the main factor.

My dad said John Stossel on his show last night was saying how polyunsaturated fats are bad, and they knew it, and that they purposely gave us the wrong information.

SATURATED FAT: All my life I avoided butter and bacon because I knew they contained too much saturated fat. Today, new research suggests we were misled. "The Big Fat Surprise" author Nina Teicholz explains.

That sounds like a dangerous thing to say on television.

Many in the Ray Peat community, myself included, probably excessively encouraged supplementation with vitamin A, maybe dangerously, partly because the bad quality of vitamin E supplements makes it hard for us to see how much vitamin E can lower vitamin A requirements, or at least reduce its risks.

The forum seems to be going in the direction of a Matt Stone style hypercaloric mania.

I'm pretty sure Matt Stone has mocked us for eating too much.

I am so very glad that cherries are in season and are relatively cheap.

The combination of low-intensity exercise throughout the day (10 min of exercise every hour) such as walking/jogging/yoga together with ashwaghandha and coffee gives me an heart rate of 90 consistently. Tested a couple of times.

I also use BCAA, gelatin, theanine. But alone with that it is usually not higher than 70. On average more around 60.

I'm quite amazed by this. I've been at around 30 (heart rate) 6 years ago. Lowest tested heart rate (by a doctor) was 28, which is allmost a world record !

My temperature dropped because CHARLIE's CHAPLIN is gone Charlie, your previous avatar was brilliant, very original. Don't get me wrong, I am originally from South Africa so I am pro-lion, I just miss the Charlie Chaplin avatar.
Now I have drink some warm salted milk (and everything else in the Peat-arsenal) to restore my temperature

Jokes aside, Charlie thank you for a GREAT forum.
