Does DHEA convert more to estrogen if taken orally versus transdermal application? or is it the same??
DHEA taken orally swallowed because first pass liver converts in men to alot more estrogen, than transdermal. see references other thread above.
By including DIM and foods and vegetables rich in natural phytochemicals, the osteoporosis does not worsen, actually bone density improves from ratios as high as in many of my clients who start out with a pitiful level of ratios of less than 2 to 1 and after several months of the Delgado protocol they are at 5 to 1 (depending on the lab ADL) even 10 to 1 or 20 to 1 (Rhein consulting lab, or Meridian), Great Smokies (now new name?) for blood goes from under .8 to above 2 to 1, for 2OHE to 16aOHE. During this time provided over time there is proper improved androgen levels, GH and thyroid then bone density increases (that is especially true in those who understand the PH of one’s diet moving from highly acidic-(negative mineral imbalance, losing more calcium than one can take in like the Eskimos who have terrible osteoporosis losing their teeth even with eating bones of fish they eat -2200 mg of calcium a day, they have so much protein they lose bone density- meat, dairy, eggs to more toward a diet alkaline vegetables, fruit, brown rice, legumes etc. like Okinawa, and Bantus-giving birth to 9 children, mothers and kids retain calcium, and parts of china, high bone density, low level of hip fractures as compared to USA levels. The ratios will be fine on this approach.
In 1994 my testosterone was less than 344, my Estrone was high, IGF low, and I had lost interest in sex, gained weight, will working out, it is called aging, so by following first herbs to restore testosterone, then phytochemicals to clear estrone’s, and augmenting all hormones low based on Wellness survey
www.ultimatemedicalresearch.com and lab tests for blood urine, saliva, over time my higher SHBG averages of 40 came down to under 27, my testosterone climbed over time from under 344, and a free Testosterone 1.4 pg/ml nearly nonexistent ok for a man over 70! to improve to ranges of 700 to 1,200 ng/ml and a Free Testosterone of between 35 and 220 pg/ml and Testosterone in urine 24 hours Rhein labs, Meriden and AAL and ADL averages 599 (scale 45 to 85) which have maintained over 10 years as I continue to progress, DHT 73 ng/dl, IGF from under 100 to average 350, restoring Free Thyroid to optimum top of range, DHEA from under 40 to around 350, during this time my estradiol 81 pg/ml of 1996 came down to safer 37. Insulin at under 5 even as low as under 2 has remained excellent on a very high complex carb diet-75% of calories, 15% or less of fat, 10 to 15% protein, Cholesterol at one time elevated along with high triglycerides leading to high blood pressure and a TIA stroke along with obesity, has now over 10 years been excellent, like free living populations who follow a Delgado type diet and protocol, Cholesterol is at 158, LDL under 95, HDL good 36 to 60, triglycerides 66, PSA stable, cortisol deficiency and Aldosterone deficiency corrected with augmentation of both using Bioidentical hormones to stabilize adrenals. No more fatigue, more muscle, stronger physically and mentally then anytime in my life. The Delgado protocol includes CVAC altitude training, blended drinks, weight training at least 30 to 45 minutes 4 times a week, time line therapy (tad James PhD) and ultimate Medical Research products. I have had 10 stem cell treatments from umbilical cord and one from my own bone marrow treatments.
My bone density went from poor for my age to top for a man age 52 that of a 24 year old. My hair line improved went from nearly zero to a sex drive that went thru the roof, (like when I was 18 years old, averaging intimacy with full force all out fun at least 5 to 12 times a week. My arteries have been tested completely clear, I sleep like a baby, run and keep up with my 4 grown children age 14 to 29, and train for world record attempts, competing nationally and internationally, while speaking tours now take me all over the world, enjoying sites and beautiful people, usually traveling with my children, and have a life in Newport Beach that I once dreamed of. Our supplement line is taking off, I’m preparing for media tours and book tours with the releases of my 3 coming books, I am not bragging just stating facts. For the hundreds of successful clients I have now coached our Health Wellness Studios companies have increased in business to match wildest dreams. My dreams I wrote out in 1996 have mostly all been met and I have added many new goals to my list to accomplish and live. Our goal is to help America and the world to become healthy and happy.
