@splithead_ You should read Peat's book Generative Energy. The chapter The tradition of truth explains why "mainstream" didn't catch on.

@Peatful Where what ?

@LetTheRedeemed For the last 12 years since I've been reading Ray's work on his website. He has always had a link to her information on his website. While he was alive and now. If he did have her link up for all that time, I believe he thought highly of her. Plus, I think the things she says are in line with Peat's work. One of the rational followers of Peats work.

The only health coach that Ray Peat ever recommended.

@Ecstatic_Hamster Do you have a quote by chance? I know Broda Barnes stated that the main thing to concentrate on was symptoms not temperature stated near the end of his book Hypothyroidism. But Peat wrote a whole newsletter on the importance of temperature.

@yerrag It's not clinical. The fact of the matter is that before you go making statements that progesterone stresses the body you need to have some concrete evidence. People saying that they feel worse while taking progesterone is not concrete evidence. If people take estrogen, and say they feel great. That doesn't take away from the fact that your increasing your chances of getting cancer and other health problems in the future.

Kate doesn't even come close to the experience that Ray Peat had. Even when she interviewed Peat years ago, she asked Peat about women feeling worse on progesterone. Stating that her "understanding" was that Progesterone releases estrogen from the tissues. Peat mentioned that it is released in a detoxed form (water soluble released by the kidneys) and not harmful. She also stated that Progesterone increases cortisol and Peat again corrected her, stating that progesterone can replace the adrenal hormones even if the adrenal glands are removed.

The fact that she keeps making these statements on podcast like Mercola even after Peat corrected her assumptions is really concerning. I really don't think she should be giving and health advice to anyone. Either she is not very perceptive, or she has malicious intent. Same Roddy, Georgi or anyone else making assumptions with no evidence.

Mercola has stated that he wants to make a progesterone product. So basically, she's giving him information that could undercut Peat's progesterone product.

@yerrag Except you need have evidence that progesterone "could" stress the system before making such statements. Which even in the most unenergetic body, there is no evidence that it would produce stress.

@cs3000 I tried to resize it and save it on my desktop. Then I tried to upload it on the chatroom and here on the thread and I get an error message that I don't have enough privileges for that action. I don't know what to say. Let me know what you think.

@cs3000 Yea I tried uploading on the thread. The file is too big. How would I pm you ? Does the forum have that option ?

I have pages 21,16, and 12. The problem is that their screenshot. I not sure if that would be helpful. Let me know.
