@Jennifer
Really appreciate the detail. Would you mind sharing the routine you used for your dog? I don't bark too loud, but I'm thinking of trying it!

Haha! Well, Bee was following the same program as me, even ate a similar diet, so humans can certainly benefit from it, too. He started out on the Heal All tea—about 1/4 cup added to his food 3x a day, then I switched him over to the Heal All glycerin tincture out of convenience. For dosing the tincture, there's a guide on the back that goes by weight. Bee was a little guy, a Maltese no more than 18 lb, so he got 1/4 of a dropper full 3x a day or 3/4 of a dropper full all at once, first thing in the morning, if I wasn’t going to be home to administer multiple doses. For comparison, at 99 lb, I was taking 1 dropper full 3x a day. His diet was composed of all his favorite foods that fit within Dr. Morse’s and Ray's dietary recommendations for dogs, as well as Dewitt's, a member on the old Peatarian forum whose family raised German Shepherds, and info I found on the website rationalmonofeeding.com. He ate melons, bananas, apples, squash, cucumber, carrots, green beans, sprouted peas, baby lettuces, young coconut meat, coconut cream, eggs, sea scallops and to drink, he loved raw coconut water, and I supplemented his diet with eggshell powder.

Bump....

@jamezb46 The issue isn't that DHT is insoluble in tocopherol, but rather that people are either using the wrong solvent or brewing it incorrectly. I’ve successfully dissolved DHEA, progesterone, and exemestane at 300 mg/ml in a mixed tocopherol solution at a 30% concentration, multiple times, with ease. There was no undissolved particles when I looked through the glass, and shining a light through it exposed no further undissolved particles.

Tocopherol is likely the most effective solvent for dissolving unesterified steroids. However, it is also the most challenging to use. First, you need to determine the exact amount of tocopherol in milligrams and oil and use an appropriate amount of steroid. Second, it requires significant heating beforehand to properly mix the steroids. Additionally, you’ll need to reheat it during subsequent steps to ensure everything dissolves thoroughly.

Simply throwing a random amount of DHT powder in a "tocopherol" oil, which a lot of the time has a low amount of vitamin E inside it, and throwing it in the microwave until it gets hot, won't work.

@cs3000 Bro my friend from school just got on a ssri I will try to tell him one more time to not take it but oh well he is already very depressed I dnt blame him for having no other option.

@LetTheRedeemed Do you perceive any signs of higher testosterone?

uncomplete. Give the fork (low / high level if you hope a comment.

Hi @nicemushroom17, due to thyroid disease that went undiagnosed and untreated for years, I developed gallbladder disease and a severe case of SIBO and gastritis, which caused histamine reactions to most foods and since dietary, antimicrobial and vitamin interventions weren’t enough to improve my thyroid and gallbladder function, eliminate the overgrowth and heal my intestinal lining, I went on an elimination diet of gelatinous proteins (mainly scallops and gelatinous broth), easy to digest, simple sugars from fresh pressed fruit juice (mainly honeydew melon) and coconut water, and gallbladder friendly, medium chain fats from coconut, and started supplementing thyroid (NDT—WP Thyroid), then slowly reintroduced foods as my condition improved. It took a few months of optimizing my thyroid dose before the gallbladder and adrenaline attacks ceased, and it was about a year before I was tolerating most foods again so supporting my thyroid was of greatest importance.

I haven’t researched finasteride, but does it have an immune suppressing effect? If so, that may be why a lot of your histamine issues went away while taking it?

@nicemushroom17 - I would not be MSM-maxxing. Listen to Dr. Peat's cautionary comments and decide for yourself.

@Kilgore I appreciate the heads up! I’ll check those out

@handsome-baby Don't worry because I forget about this place too. I remember hearing people say that when you take substances in general you should take note of the lowest dose in which you feel an effect in case you ever decide to try supplementing again

@wester130 Have you seen the COA.... look at the font differences, the low resolution of the document but the high resolution of the text and the misalignment of the text. Someone has clearly edited it, in order to fake the COA for this "DHT heptanoate"

lol. nice job.

Comparing it to a PPL test report makes me feel confident in PPL.

@16charactersitis from looking at how its done industrially it seems warm alcohol is the way to go, yet its tricky to not denature the vitamins

@zorba990 That’s good to keep in mind.

However, I think I actually have high iron based on the fact that I ate a high iron diet alongside a diet rich in fruit and low in calcium for several years. I’m pretty positive but not 100% if that’s what’s causing me problems though, we’ll see.

@Mossy oops yah I misread that as 50g. $70 for 50mg is insane lmao
