    Increased Androgens: A pilot study on male volunteers (1 g/day for 1 month) found that DCI administration was associated with a +23.4% increase in testosterone and a +13.8% increase in dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Reduced Estrogens: In the same study, DCI significantly reduced estrone levels (-85.0%) and reduced estradiol levels (-14.4%). Androgen Precursors: In addition to DHEA, other androgen precursors like epiandrosterone also increased (+39%). Aromatase Inhibition: DCI is believed to act as an aromatase down-modulator (inhibitor), reducing the conversion of androgens (like testosterone) into estrogens (like estradiol and estrone). D-chiro-inositol (DCI) acts to mimic insulin and also stimulate PDHP (pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase), which in turn dephosphorylates and activates PDH (pyruvate dehydrogenase). Acute Post-Meal Reduction: Clinical studies have shown that DCI, often in combination with myo-inositol, can acutely reduce the insulin spike that typically follows glucose or carb intake. Improved Sensitivity: By enhancing the activation of the insulin receptor pathway (specifically IRS2 and GLUT4), DCI allows the insulin already present in your system to work more effectively. Sparing Effect: Because DCI mimics certain insulin actions—like promoting glucose uptake into muscle and fat—it can have an insulin-sparing effect, meaning the body achieves the same blood sugar control with lower systemic insulin levels. taking D-chiro-inositol (DCI) or similar mimetics with carbohydrates can reduce the body's overall need for insulin by improving how cells process glucose.

    also posting here, someone on rpf posted about embryo rice, this is something I am looking into, apparently, and im not sure, it is usually brown rice , and in the package they will also put in the embryo from the processing of other rice into white rice to boost the nutrients. I might be wrong, it might also be brown rice that is only partially processed so that it removes something but retains the embryo, im not sure, it's sold at asian supermarkets and I haven't tried it yet.

    @LucH I read Dr Browstean book years ago and started the Iodine. However, lately I have changed completely my mind about it. I made a post in the forum, if you have time, watch the video attached to it and let me know what you think about, this is completely the opposite view on Iodine. https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/3795/mercola-strong-sista-and-alan-christianson-on-excess-iodine?_=1739569295506

    @jeeba I gave my mom Ray’s book From PMS to Menopause and that seemed to sway her mind on estrogen. All of his work is very cited and scientific so I wouldn’t imagine that would be a problem.

    Random notes from the other form during the covid times: Peat on cvd supps: Q: What would be your go-to medicines/food etc, if you started to develop "Covid" like symptoms like shortness of breath and fever? RP: Aspirin, antihistamines, and antibiotics (azithromycin has been tested in covid), vitamin D, milk, orange juice,nebulized 4% saline, lidocaine (nebulized or oral), progesterone. Famotidine Steady state famotidine concentrations sufficient to elicit H2 antagonism (and inverse agonism) are readily achieved using inexpensive oral tablets and safe dosage levels. As summarized above, the famotidine dosage employed in the retrospective hospital studies currently available which examine famotidine effects on COVID-19 outcomes appears to be levels (20–40 mg daily) which are unlikely to fully inhibit histamine-mediated systemic effects at the H2 receptor ( https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/pharmacology/articles/10.3389/fphar.2021.633680/full think this would be a better protocol : Aspirin >500mg High doses of Vitamins A,D,E,K2 policosanol or other long chain saturated fatty acids An anti-biotic, preferably one of the tetracyclines or azithromycin An anti-serotonin chemical like famotidine or cyproheptadine a steroid like progesterone, pregnenolone, testosterone,... Addiotinal options : methylene blue nigella sativa emodin / cascara ivermectin glycine zinc https://lowtoxinforum.com/members/mauritio.7916/ Mauritio: In this study, they looked at the difference between treating people less or more than 3 days after COVID-19 symptoms started. They treated the people with a combination of Aspirin 100mg indomethacin 75-100mg omeprazole 20mg A combination of flavonoids: hesperidin, quercetin and vitamin C If patients still got worse, they gave them azithromycin, bethametasone and/or heparin. The duration of the sicknes was reduced and most importantly there were zero percent hospitalizations in the early treatment group, compared with 19% in the other group. That basically means you could treat covid at home with mostly over the counter medications, but it's important to start treatment early. I would make some small improvements to the protocol. I'd favor a higher aspirin dose, meaning >500mg ,maybe even in the grams, it has less effect on blood thinning, but acts more as a metabolical aid and anti-viral. (Aspirin Is Antiviral) If you take higher doses of aspirin, it's smart to supplement vitamin K2 ,which has good binding affinity for the spike protein, so works in your favor as well ( Vitamin K, D and A bind to the SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein ) I'd also remove omeprazole and replace it with famotidine. There has been evidence for it having an anti-covid effect ,hence why Dr. Robert Malone treated himself with it when he had an early case of covid. Plus there's tons of studies on famotidines pro-metabolic effects. I've come across a few studies already mentioning azithromycin for covid. I talked about one of its mechanisms here : (Coronavirus spike protein creates inflammation via CD147, antibiotics treat) And they cite another paper on azithromycin for covid: (Azithromycin: Immunomodulatory and antiviral properties for SARS-CoV-2 infection - PubMed) There's also evidence for Quercetin and vitamin C beeing helpful,so the stack they use is quite decent (Quercetin and Vitamin An Experimental, Synergistic Therapy for the Prevention and Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 Related Disease (COVID-19) - PubMed) https://lowtoxinforum.com/threads/early-treatment-with-otcs-reduces-covid-hospitalizations-to-zero.44503/

    Just eating a lot , like real a lot will be very metabolic and probably good for hair regrowth... Does anyone have a better hairline than a youtuber Brother Monkey ? Even Haidut is just a low metabolic half-starved rabbit compared to this lion . He needs to eat more to regrow hair. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nQsDKp08ZI you can see in this video all his family members have full head of hair [image: 1739240589911-b705e4ec-152e-47b3-8276-28ed54528f56-image.png] [image: 1739281035471-capture.png]

    @Rayoshi-Pufamoto said in Limiting salt consumption for infants?: Should the sodium intake be limited to a certain amount or can salt be eaten liberally at that age? Whenever salt is "mixed" with fat, the taste buds are saturated. This encourages the brain to ask for more because the sensors are out of order. => Enough potassium should still be brought. If not sufficient from vegetables and fruit (mainly), I'd add some potassium bicarbonate (not sodium bicarbonate), in a shake. The dose for an adult is 1.2 g potassium bicarbonate. So, I'd say 1/3 under 6 years old. 1 hour before or 2 hours after digestion. Best not to eat meat just after the take (pH is not optimal then). Not on a continuous way (impact on TH1><TH2 and M1 >< M2). So, with days off, let's say after 8-10 days take.

    @Jakeandpace I have stopped and started including smoked tobacco a lot and it doesn't seem like that big of an issue. the only time I had trouble was when I was taking multiple nootropics in a stack as well as chewing nicotine gum 4mg 3x a day and taking mitolipin and I got choline overload symptoms. I think I might actually prefer nicotine in isolation over tobacco smoking. I haven't tried tobacco snus yet though.

    @AnxiousMess Dr. Ray Peat suggested starting at 4mcg or a 6th of a tablet a day. And take that dose for a week or two measuring your responses. Danny Roddy also mentioned recently that if u take more than 10mcg at a time your liver essentially destroys it. You also need to make sure you’re eating enough carbohydrates to support the increase in metabolism or you will get these adrenaline responses. I’ve been on T3 mono therapy for over a year and am doing great at one 25mg tablet broken up through the day.

    @nicemushroom17 Things I’ve found looking at the internet and other forums: Low sugar/carb: Obvs not since here I am and I was low carb for awhile which lead to this. -Niacinamide: Seemed to make it worse for me. -Inositol -Taurine -K2 -Resistant starch: this seems to be pretty good, had some cold potatoes that I boiled the day before and felt good. -Low fat diet
