      Can anyone explain this study? https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8279712/

      neutralized zinc (zinc gluconate + arginine)

      does arginine neutralize zinc? zinc gluconate is bad because arginine neutralizes zinc gluconate? I don't get it.

      Abstract

      Zinc has been implicated in steroid endocrinology of the prostate gland; and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is believed to express androgenic responses in the prostate. To note the effect of neutralized zinc (zinc gluconate + arginine) on the prostate, 50 sexually mature rats, weighing 325 +/- 20 g, were divided into five groups as follows: (1) control, (2) sham, (3) castrated, and injected intraprostatically with (4) 10 mg neutralized zinc, and (5) 20 mg neutralized zinc. Results indicated significant reduction (P < 0.05) of prostate weight, 5 alpha-reductase activity, and total protein and DNA concentrations in treated prostate tissue; no significant change in weight and histological structure of testes, epididymides, and seminal vesicles; and no significant effect on progeny and blood testosterone level of treated animals. These results suggest that direct application of neutralized zinc to the prostate offers a new modality for treatment of prostatitis without affecting spermatogenesis.

        Zinc gluconate + arginine is a veterinarian castration product injected into the testis

        all 12 testes contained dark red, well-demarcated regions involving 25% to 100% of the testicular parenchyma (Figure 3). Histologically, these regions were characterized by severe, acute, coagulative necrosis with extensive acute hemorrhage. The inflammation and injury often extended beyond the testes into the tunics and epididymis; adjacent vessels showed evidence of vascular injury and thrombosis. - link

        The zinc is an antiseptic like spermicide and the arginine, as a nitric oxide precursor facilitates the inflammation permanently damaging the testis.

            @alex155 Interesting research, thanks.

            Have you also considered the importance of copper and its role in balancing zinc?

            https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4556990/

            In the skin, copper is involved in the synthesis and stabilization of extracellular matrix skin proteins

            And https://raypeatexplained.com/ray-peat-on-copper/

            A little learning is a dangerous thing ;
            Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring :
            There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
            And drinking largely sobers us again.

                I got it,
                all these products are also strong aromatase inhibitors...
                low DHT, plus low estrogen - makes you a real castrate! I
                should reduce aspirin to at least one 100mg tablet every three days. By the way, UDCA also destroys all estrogen, and I've been taking it for 3 years

                  By the way, zinc bisglycinate, unlike the sulfate and citrate forms, does not cause dry skin, but no more than 25 mg per day.

                      At least coffee can be multifaceted-ly beneficial, when taken in the right amounts and with cream and sugar.
                      Fina steride seems to be completely destructive.

                          This is interesting but I think it can be helpful to take breaks from coffee. Like, try to go to sleep and just wake up naturally on time, have the energy to sleep deeply. Not saying it's easy I just feel less reliant on coffee though. It helps, but I used to rely on it very heavily.
