TRT was started at age 35 with a total testosterone of 110 ng/dL. Did the full workup to determine if I was primary or secondary, and I was primary. I saw a lot of improvements starting TRT but it had no effect on my weight. I actually continued to gain weight. I do have to watch my hematocrit...

I have lofty longevity goals! ;)

I don't go as heavy as I used to and I have increased reps. When I say heavy, I really mean I'm working hard.

Honestly, I don't keep track other than to say I almost always focus on a protein and fats and carbs are just accessories. I consume 48g of protein after every workout. Having had gastric sleeve, I can still only eat about ⅓ to ½ a portion so I always also eat the protein first because I still...

The day before my 48th birthday in October, I will be the age my father was when he passed away from a combination of a really terrible lifestyle, cancer, and uncontrolled hypertension. My sister was 44 when she died of a heart attack secondary to extreme morbid obesity. At my heaviest in 2018...

Limber up? Double tap?

This is why I should know better than to get into a discussion with a scientifically illiterate person. That's not a dig, it's just true, and it means I can't expect you to even follow the process of how science is made or understand how to weight various forms of evidence. I read the...

Business partner had to order his Bronco from the factory to get the manual.

Gears 1-6 are in the standard positions. I believe this also operates in a different way - once you're moving no need to push the clutch in if you stop.

It has a "crawler gear" as the 7th gear. Sounds cool for trails. As a side note, and I did not know this until just now, but I thought it was weird that spellcheck didn't underline Broncho, and it turns out it is an outdated but still accepted alternative to bronco. I also can never remember...

My business partner just traded his automatic Bronco for a 7-speed manual Broncho with the Sasquatch package and boy is he happy.

Not to mention grapefruit juice interferes with a ton meds by inhibiting CYP3A4 in the P450 system in the liver. The acidity is meaningless because the human body has three very powerful buffering systems because it really hates even tiny changes in pH which cause enzymes and chemical reactions...

I'm also going to point out your usual MO is also showing. I ask you a perfectly reasonable question, in a non-confrontational way, which you don't answer because you can't, and instead you attack me. Is this your thing when you feel inferior because my only intent is to just have a reasonable...

Unfortunately for you and your fantasy that when I use AI it means I don't know what I'm talking about, and unlike cosmology which I dabble in casually, human physiology is entirely my wheelhouse, absolutely no AI needed for any reason. How does someone start off by saying they don't know how...

What the mechanism by which this statement operates? "To decrease plaque = eat more fibrous vegetables and fruits....but not too much...... and increase citric fruits, like lemons\juice." What does increasing citric fruits do and how does it do it?
