Hi guys

does anyone has any feedback on this product, and has verified with some labs the increase in Magnesium in the body?

In the old forum I believe based on anecdotes, Haidut mentions that after 2-3 weeks of full dose, the body may replenish the magnesium, and a lower maintenance dose can be used.

I used a full month with almost the full dose, but my Mg RBC did not increased, I'm wondering if the perceived benefits listed on the old forum are actually coming from the DSMO or the L-Pidolate in it.

@DavidPS I was just able to download this, that is a bit hard to find articles though, my "find" on the page does not work that well to find articles' title, I'm wondering if yours works just fine

the "find" command is actually working fine now

@Ecstatic_Hamster thank you

what are your thoughts on the RX eye drops Xalatan and Travatan Z or the SLT laser treatment to lower IOP?

@Sunniva thanks

I have been using Magnoil from Idealabs, topical magnesium dissolved in DSMO for a month probably, but I do not think it helped with my eye pressure.

I'm wondering If I would use this around my eyes like @Ecstatic_Hamster suggested

@Ecstatic_Hamster thanks for the info. I believe I was told mine is open angle.

are the vitamins and melatonin you are mixing in a powder or liquid form? do you use distilled water to mix all or bacteriostatic water?

are you actually an ophthalmologist? what do you think of Taustin eye drops for lowering eye pressure?

My hope would be to keep improving my health that at same point my eye pressure would normalize

@yerrag thanks for the material!

@DavidPS @sneedful thanks

@DavidPS this is awesome, I'm so glad I asked. thank you.

I think it is a good idea to download all of them, one day or another they may be gone

@DavidPS thanks for posting

My eyes pressure is usually on the high side, doc confirmed a little bit of my right eye vison field is gone.

He recommends either SLT laser, or daily eye drops to reduce eye pressure and prevent glaucoma, he mentioned two drugs called Xalatan or Travatan Z

is there a natural alternative to this? thanks

HI guys, I'm wondering if there is a way to download all R. Peat articles from his website all together in one time, or some other ways to do so.

thanks

Hi guys, I'm a little bit torned about my Pregnenolone options

I can get a micronized Preg compounded from a pharmacy in a capsule, which I tried in the past and liked the SR version. however it has silica as filler, and for the SR version they use hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. In the past this was really effective on raising levels/symptoms

Or opting for Health Natura powder which is pure with no fillers, but I would rather get any hormones from a pharmacy.

what do you guys think? is it more important to avoid the fillers or get a pharma grade Preg?

@DavidPS wow, thank you so much for the info. That PeatBot is amazing.

Hi Guys, I read the Three Youth Associated Hormones article, and I'm wondering if someone know of any other Peat material/interviews on Pregnenolone specifically, and what dosing he is recommending of powdered Preg.

thanks.

@sneedful said in StressNon dose/route of administration?:

if he is talking about taking 200mg orally he is probably talking about taking the raw powder.

Yes, for sure

@Mossy said in StressNon dose/route of administration?:

t's hard for me to always follow these principles with proper understanding, but how are you concluding that the dissolved in SFA pregnenolone was oral and not topical and that it is now 10:1? By the fact that it will bypass first metabolism in the liver?

I found the 10:1 rule on the older forum, and it was in the topical route, but as it was mentioned in the video with Mercola and Haidut, Preg dissolved in long chain SFA will by pass first pass metabolism, same way it does when applied topically.

However, I have decided to try again a micronized pregnenolone orally, as I think it may be the best delivery method for Pregn. Even Peat was taking Pregnenolone this way

In one of the articles of Ray Peat, he mentions that powered Pregnenolone is absorbed fairly well, do we know how much is actually bioavailable in the micronized form? I made a research but I was unsuccessful in finding this info.

He mentions the body at the age of 30 produces 30/50mg, and wondering what this would translate in mg of Micronized Pregnenolone

@Mossy thanks. Sorry the late response, as I was not notified about it.

I have read this before. However, it is a bit confusing with what Haidut says, as in the text you attached, he mentions that there is no advantage of taking oral stressNon, but then in a video interview with Dr Mercola, he mentions how pregnenolone dissolved in SFA will bypass first metabolism in the liver, that means a 5mg dose of Pregnenolone will be almost 100% bioavailable, so theoretically when it is taken orally, the rule 10:1 can still be applied in this case.

What is more confusing is that he mentions that a oral dose for full replacement is 30/50mg, and I assume orally with first pass metabolism, but with stressnon could probably be 3/5mg then.

However, when someone is very low on Pregnenolone, 100mg of oral micronized Preg, generally takes levels to mid range.
