Why is TRT such a bad thing?

I think the one thing Helen is missing regarding steroids is the impact on VDR by estrone sulfate retaining chromium in the body.

Without chromium we can’t make iron copper available. Chromium going down in men is why men like steroids. And we need chromium to fix our potassium as chromium responsible for the whole b2 —-> b12 utilization pathway. Glycine recycling.

He’s spot on about potassium. And this is the piece that’s tough. But we can’t use potassium or retain it without the enzyme systems that really do revolve around chromium.

I can’t believe I might be too late. Cuz steroid cycles with just dhea were saving my ass in 2022. I was missing a few things like k2 at the time. Calcium.

Now. I just don’t know what’s gonna happen. I’m gonna be 37 next month. Almost 3 full years since November 2022 the last time I had a decent day on this planet.

Isn't chromium part of electrolytes protocol, if I recall correctly?

It is but taking chromium in severe chromium depletion, completely dead/low hormones— does absolutely nothing it seems..

Where- say chromium goes down to -90% like mine. Taking chromium does not increase from supplements. But raising the hormones that raise estrone sulfate does increase chromium.

Where in order to fix a severe chromium deficiency, some actually need hormonal treatment. Or something else like weight loss, keto to retain chromium in the body.

My findings with 2 years of oligoscan use on myself and studying the results in that discord with Oligoscans forget the name. Born free.

So born free just shows it. People are fucked up with the chromium / boron imbalance. Men specifically. They tend to have low phosphorus / sulfur. Higher selenium.

Women seem to have low lithium, high aluminum who are sick. Majority have decent to good chromium. Estrogen —-> estrone = chromium. Estrogen = copper… many women are copper toxic in Oligo’s.

While most men really aren’t . But there are exceptions in both sexes just rarities.

Still the chromium boron imbalance in men stands out most to me. For people with our types of issues.

So we shouldn't take boron just chromium..? Also the webside I posted says you have to take chelated chromium not chromium picolinate.. There seems to be issues with picolinate forms of minerals for some reason..
