You all should understand. Finasteride blocks NADPH. NADPH is the thing that protects the mitochondria from oxidative stress via recycling the glutathione.
SO if your mitochondria is not protected the body turns off all sugar metabolism. It lowes insulin, it increases reverse t3 , it kills potassium etc. it binds oxygen with hemoglobin and does not let oxygen to go into the cell. NOT TO CREATE oxidative stress.
This is why body pisses out zinc since zinc is what makes insulin.
So to return body back, you need to support redox( you need to take b1 b2 b3) multivitamin and do ARL test and follow their instructions. You cant just take HCL and that is it or some potassium. You need to take everything. And B vitamins are very very important since you need to make NADPH again. you need to protect mitochondria, and this will allow you to take zinc again
didn't we have high NADPH after fin ? Shouldn't we find a way to block NADPH so 5 beta reductase can raise as you said in another thread or is that theory not anymore valid ?
