Pregnenolone reduces cocaine consumption in addicts.
Dosage: 300 or 500mg per day.Also interesting that 300mg increased plasma pregnenolone levels more than 500mg after a few weeks.

Aspirin for autism?

In this animal model aspirin worked as a treatment for autism.
It completely restored their sociability and improved cognition and oxidative stress.
The human equivalent dosage was around 600mg.

They accidentally gave 2 million IUs of vitamin D to a 90 and a 95 year old.
Interestingly, except for a transient spike of Vitamin D levels above the reference range, they were fine.

DHEA seems to have some interesting antiviral effects.
At least partly because of its ability to protect the thymus gland from Glucocorticoids.

Just wanted to add my thanks to @Mauritio for continuing to add to this fascinating collection of studies.

Mauritio

@rpc thanks!
I posted them on twitter during the last weeks. But it seems to me that there is less overlap between the audience on here and twitter, than I thought. So I'll try to post them on both platforms in the future.
