what’s going on guys welcome to the
tester levels channel today we’re
discussing why your doctor doesn’t want
to prescribe you tests and at the end of
the video I’m gonna tell you some ways
you may be able to nudge him along a
little bit or when did you switch
doctors let’s get into it
[Music]
so I see this on Reddit and Facebook all
the time guys are getting their blood
test and there are a few points higher
than the bottom the doctor say oh you’re
in range you’re good tough it out maybe
we’ll try some SSRIs or some
antidepressants you know we’ll do some
stuff that can mess up with your brain
and give you tons of other side-effects
and isn’t a hormone naturally found in
the body that men need to function
properly anyway there’s a couple factors
that make it so doctors don’t want to
prescribe testosterone one of the first
ones being is that it is a schedule of
three drug doctors are under a lot of
scrutiny these days for writing any of
those medicines that are on that
schedule list because mainly from the
crisis that we had from pain pills over
the past 15-20 years however long it’s
been so they’re under a lot of scrutiny
and if they don’t have to write one of
those then they prefer not to because
it’s more paperwork on their end they
don’t want to deal with it they don’t
want to be viewed as a doctor that’s
just prescribing the stuff too much you
know you don’t know maybe they
prescribed a lot of PMS and then that
you just don’t want to add tests into
the mix the other contributing factor is
a lot of doctors I believe more older
doctors they were never taught about
hormones and they’re probably thinking
about very retired soon so they’re not
trying to learn a whole new skill set
just to deal with you know a couple of
men that come into their office that
have you know low testosterone they
don’t want to get into analyzing
luteinizing hormone and follicle
stimulating hormone and SHBG they don’t
want to do all that you know they say
here’s a prescription from Pfizer or
whatever pharmaceutical company and you
know we’ll just monitor your results and
change their doses as we need it you
know we don’t have to learn anything new
now we can just focus on prescribing the
drugs another big factor that comes into
play with doctors prescribing tests is
that it has the social stigma and you
know what it is
it’s steroids it’s bodybuilders you know
bodybuilders died at 50 so if I
prescribe tests in the sky he’s gonna
have heart attacks you can have prostate
issues you’re gonna have this and that
it’s too scary I don’t want to prescribe
this man this he just needs to tough
that
he just needs to you know just accept
that he’s not gonna feel like an
optimize male throughout the rest of his
life because I don’t want to deal with
it and as I stated before most doctors
aren’t trained in women’s at all so they
don’t understand how everything works
you know they don’t even male doctors
who should know about the stuff as they
aids themselves they don’t understand it
they weren’t taught it so they don’t
want to prescribe it what are the
problems with generic testosterone is
that it’s just that it’s generic so it
doesn’t make the pharmaceutical
companies a lot of money in turn they do
not educate doctors on this medicine
they don’t give them pamphlets they
don’t have seminars on it and they don’t
take them out to dinner and explain how
to use it what are some of the side
effects where are the benefits
so if your doctor was never taught about
this in the first place there’s a very
strong chance that he hasn’t learned it
since and it’s definitely not going to
be taught to him by a pharmaceutical
company that’s just the way it is so if
you go into a doctor’s office and you’re
saying you’re having anxiety they have a
whole laundry list of medicines that
they’ve been taught about and how to
kind of treat that symptom with that
medicine from the pharmaceutical company
but with testosterone they do not they
just know that men use it to get big and
jacked and they died early and I’m not
gonna touch that that’s just not my
thing I don’t want to deal with it being
a controlled substance I don’t want to
deal with the side effects I don’t want
to learn about it so just chug along but
you’re just gonna have to deal with it
sorry sorry for your genetics [ _ ] sucks but you know we can deal with your anxiety and your depression and your IDI we can do all that with pills but you know to get to the root cause of that and inject the scary hormone we’re not gonna do that sorry I see a lot of people on Facebook and reddit who get turned down by doctors they kind of hold doctors and a little different life than I do I view going to the doctor as I’m the customer I pay them without me going there they’re not making money now a lot of people have this mindset that doctors while they are normally smarter that they are authoritarian figures you know they they decide what you get and what you don’t get there the gatekeepers and you really have to get out of that mindset you know when you go there and you pay them your $30 copay they get more money from the insurance company on the back end so you walking in for a normal visit they’re probably making 100 to 250 bucks so that’s a big chunk of money that’s you’re their customer so the same as when you walk into Walmart and you request service because you’re a paying customer it’s the exact same thing with your doctor you’re a paying customer to them you tell them what you want within reason you need to have a little bit of assertiveness when you talk to your doctor you don’t say sir may I get a testosterone test to see if that’s the reason I felt so bad for the past five years no no it doesn’t work like that you say okay I want to do blood work and I want to add testosterone estrogen SHBG LH FSH hematocrit and whatever else you want to get tested and if your doctor has an issue with that that is a clear sign they do not treat low testosterone they don’t want to and even if you come back with a really bad number or low test they’re probably not going to write you a scrip for anything so that’s a big warning sign if your doctor is giving you a hard time about a lab result that’s in your blood and you’re paying for it that’s an issue there’s no reason that they should not allow you to get a test they may tell you that you know this test is an extra 200 bucks and it’s probably not necessary if it’s for something crazy but they shouldn’t deny you the right to know what’s in your own body that’s insane and I understand that a lot of these guys they’re beat down they feel horrible they’re not really in a spot to be super assertive but you have to fight for yourself there is no reason that a doctor should be able to dictate what blood tests you get I mean that’s just that’s a god-given right you have the freedom and the right to know what’s going on in your own body we have the science to do it and there’s no reason a doctor should turn you down if they do find a new doctor now another thing that you need to know when you’re talking to your doctor about low tea and getting prescribed it you have to know your [ _ ] you can’t
walk in there and just say well the
range does this and I’m here so can I
just get my script no you have to show
that you know a little bit about this
that you’ve done research that you’re
not just you don’t know anything about
it you know you have to be able to talk
in somewhat normal terms you have to
know some of these terms doc I noticed
that my total testosterone is a little
bit above the bottom mark but my free
testosterone is really low and my shbg
is really high so I think that could be
possibly the cause of that can we
explore this a little further that’s a
lot different than just saying hey well
my total T’s right near the bottom can
we just get a script written for that
and let’s move on you know and knowing
knowing a lot of this stuff not a super
great detail but having a general grasp
of it is going to how can I say it put
you in a different light in your doctor
spies he’s gonna be you as someone who’s
done some research has some knowledge
it’s probably gonna be persistent in
this and not just give up as opposed to
someone who walks in and doesn’t know
anything and they say hey I’m the doctor
here listen I’m telling you you’re 288
you’re above the bottom so you’re good
you know that’s probably something else
we could probably try some other
medicines you know from Pfizer from the
big pharmaceutical company so scoot
along little Johnny you’re good you’re
past your ten minutes that I have to see
you so I’m gonna go see well des in the
next room so let’s recap so if your
doctor refuses to get you a testosterone
test find a new doctor so let’s say
you’ve been a serve enough to get your
doctor to give you the correct blood
test to see what’s going on in your own
body and you have the symptoms of low
testosterone and you have the numbers
that show you have low testosterone and
they still don’t want to write you a
script you know there’s not a whole lot
you can do as I said some doctors just
don’t want to write it they don’t want
to deal with it they don’t want to learn
about it we’ve already covered this so
what can you do and I know a lot of men
deal with this and it’s pretty it’s
pretty bad situation there’s not a whole
lot you can do with that doctor you can
only push so hard if they don’t want to
do it they’re not
going to do it and at some point you
have to cut your losses and walk away
the benefit though is that you just had
a recent blood test that has all your
numbers and you can now look for another
doctor now how would you go about this
are you just gonna go on Google and just
type in doctors near me and click on and
go pay a copay and talk to him know
here’s what you do it’s pretty simple I
was in an industry we used to dial for
dollars and that’s kind of what you’re
gonna do would you be dialing for tests
now here’s what you need to do so you
need to find some doctors in your area
give them a call on the phone and talk
to their assistant or whoever in the
office and say hello ma’am
does your doctor have experience in
treating low testosterone and men no he
doesn’t really do that okay thank you
hello is your doctor ever experienced
with treating low testosterone in man oh
he does okay how many patients does he
have but he treats that too okay thank
you hello ma’am
does your doctor have experience with
low testosterone and treating men with
it
yes he does oh okay you know roughly how
many patients he has that you treats for
this about 20-25 oh okay
okay good when’s your next available
appointment perfect thank you test your
levels you know it’s not a hundred
percent proven thing a doctor could
still he could only be treating those
twenty men that have like 50 or 100 test
levels you know but it’s a lot better
chance that you’re gonna find a doctor
that knows what he’s talking about to
some degree by doing this you’re
filtering out people dialing for dollars
you’re just dialing for a doctor here so
don’t just go in and just think okay
well this next doctors me better you
need to ask the question you don’t make
take a little bit of your time but I
guarantee you it’s not gonna take you as
much time as going through two or three
doctors and you know however left money
in co-pays worst case scenario you’d
have to go to a clinic because you can’t
find any doctors in the area that are
competent enough to do this so but at
least you’ll have brand-new bloodwork
and you can bring them there now some
clinics they don’t care if you’re just
blood work last week they want you to go
to LabCorp again and get new bloods
which will cost you a good amount of
money but get a little bit of kickback
on that Butthead this is trt it’s not
fun it’s a jungle out there but worst
case scenario you’d have to find a
clinic and you’ll be getting medicine
from them it’s a little bit more
expensive than when you get in the
pharmacy but hey on the bright side of
that this is kind of what I did
I didn’t do it intentionally but I went
to from a doctor that turned me down to
a clinic and then I got on my protocol
and I had labs and then I went to a
doctor that was knowledgeable in this
and since I was already on a protocol
and I told them how fantastic I felt how
much my life has changed and how I
started going to the gym again really
hard for them to tell you that they
don’t want to give you medicine that’s
making you feel great and you have no
side effects to recap first off you have
to be assertive you can’t walk in there
like a doormat I know you feel tired I
know you feel rough I know you don’t
feel great but you need to walk in there
and be assertive you need to fight for
your right for the medicine that you
need if you have these symptoms second
one try to get a blood test I mean just
push it push it I really want this I’ve
done a lot of research online I really
think this can help me I want to just
know what my levels are so that I can
make a plan of action I don’t care if
you write it I don’t care if you don’t
write that can you just at least let me
get the blood test that I’m paid for in
the first place on your customer I pay
your bills I’m the reason that you have
your Maserati out back the next thing is
know when to cut your losses if your
doctor will not let you get a
testosterone blood test he’s actually
doing you a favor he’s letting you know
right up front that he doesn’t treat
this he’s not knowledgeable in it and he
doesn’t want to deal with it so thanks
doc it’s good knowing you I know you’ve
been my family physician for twenty
years but now you’ve moved into an area
that you don’t know and I need you to
know so now I’m going to find a new
better more educated doctor now we’re
dialing for dollars we’re dialing we’re
dialing we’re calling people we’re
finding out which doctors in our area
our knowledgeable on this or at least
treated so that we can get on some kind
of protocol hopefully a good one and we
can get better and if that doesn’t work
our next step hopefully we’ve gotten
some blood work but if not there are
always clinics and clinics while I have
mixed feelings about them I like that
they’re knowledgeable I know their
business I know they have to make money
I get it I’d like to open my own
personally I think it’d be a really
think it’s a great business I think it’s
gonna be a booming business because so
many men have it these days but I’m not
a doctor I don’t know any doctor so hey
I’ll just teach you guys on YouTube
instead so we’re gonna wrap up this
video I hope it was helpful I hope you
know you’ve learned something and kind
of can get a general idea of kind of a
track and the path and the way to deal
with this and being assertive but under
leave you one thing with every
graduating class of doctors there’s
always one at the bottom and he just may
be your doctor
isn’t that reassuring so thanks for
watching guys hope you learned something
I’m gonna put some videos up here I’m
gonna put a subscribe button right there
love to see you here
you’re awesome as always get your levels
tested
Estrogen Levels In Men. High Estrogen on TRT. Best Estrogen levels on TRT
what’s going on guys welcome to the
tester levels Channel today we’re going
to talk about one of the most important
hormones in the male body and it’s
estrogen you’re probably thinking
yourself estrogen and that’s a girl
hormone why are we talking about this
for the treatment that we’re talking
about right now thanks you two the
estrogen is one of the most important
things when trying to dial in all of
your hormones so when you raise your
testosterone levels more of that
testosterone is gonna Roma ties into
estrogen and if you’ve been someone
who’s had low testosterone for a long
time there’s a good chance you had low
estrogen so now your body has more
testosterone and more estrogen and this
can cause some unwanted side-effects
let’s get into what estrogen does for
men even though it is not our main
hormone that makes us men that would be
testosterone it still does a lot of
things that is very integral in your
body so estrogen can have a major effect
on edie and your libido or your desire
to yeah it helps with your bone health
it also helps with fat loss and lean
muscle helps with your brain lipids your
skin it also at certain levels has a
protective effect over the heart so long
story short all the hormones of your
body work together and estrogen is one
of the big ones that you need to keep an
eye on whether high or low what are some
of the symptoms of low estrogen got
fatigue anxiety irritability depression
fatigue sleeping all the time feeling
tired feeling sluggish
edie water retention bone loss and fat
accumulation those are just the symptoms
for low estrogen and you can tell it’s a
pretty long list and it actually has a
lot of similarities to low testosterone
what are some of the symptoms of high
estrogen
Eady loss of libido your interest in
doing whatever you would normally want
to be doing gynecomastia which no one
likes if you don’t
what it is look it up we have to think
about the children and the advertisers
persistent fatigue lack of energy
fogginess very similar to low mood
swings anxiety depression water
retention looking all puffy kind of like
my neck right now excessive sweating
insomnia night sweats high blood
pressure and the one that I personally
get body acne and I hate so as you can
see these symptoms of low estrogen and
high estrogen there’s a lot of them that
are very similar that means that we need
to get our extra gene levels dialed in
to a good range where we a feel good and
are not having lots of symptoms and as I
stated some of the symptoms of high
estrogen are very similar to the ones of
low testosterone so what a lot of people
will do a lot of men they start on trt
and the testosterone levels go up and
their estrogen levels go up and then
they’ll get on reddit or Facebook and
they’ll say I’ve been on for a month I
still feel bad I’m having this symptom
this symptom this symptom a lot of the
time it’s because while their
testosterone raised the estrogens also
raised as well so now some of those
symptoms that were alleviated from the
higher testosterone are being negated
because of the high estrogen us as
humans even with how advanced our
medicine and sciences we do not fully
understand all of the interactions and
the ways of different hormones work off
each other in the body so that’s why a
lot of it is going off of numbers that
more importantly feel some people feel
fine with higher estrogen some people
feel horrible on it
some people feel greater than mid-range
it’s really more about feel than numbers
but you also have to work with your
doctor to see what those numbers are and
see what might be the cause of some of
these symptoms the normal ranges of
estrogen and the test is called
sensitive e – that’s the most accurate
one for what we’re dealing with for this
treatment is eight to forty pg/ml
if you’re lower than eight or higher
than 40 then you may want to speak with
your doctor about estrogen and what you
can do to either raise it or lower it
and then see how you feel and go from
there there are three main things
that can cause high estrogen one is
being overweight because fat cells are
very good at aroma tossing testosterone
into estrogen so if you’re overweight
and you’re having side effects or you’re
testing with high estrogen there’s a
good chance that it’s because you’re
overweight and all those little fat
cells are really busy
taking all your tests and turning into
estrogen the other one is genetics
that’s something we can’t beat some
manner just prone to having higher
estrogen is what it is if you’re having
issues with it you need to talk to your
doctor see about some ways to bring that
estrogen level down the other one is
taking outside testosterone the more
testosterone you have flowing around in
your blood the more that’s available to
convert over into estrogen now there are
some medicines that can lower your
estrogen these are pretty controversial
with this treatment there’s lots of
people that feel one way or the other
I’m not getting into in this video I’m
just gonna let you know the names of
them Arimidex aromasin and pho Maura if
you want to do more research on them you
can look them up on Google lots of good
info there so thanks for watching guys I

TRT Transformations Before and After – Tim’s Story
what’s going on guys test your levels
here coming at you with the first part
of the trt transformation series and
hopefully I can get some more people to
send me some pictures I actually put out
the request for TRT pictures missed a
general idea of what you did while you
started and one person actually follow
the instructions and sent me an email
with pictures and that man is Tim and
thank you very much Tim I appreciate you
sending me this stuff and sharing your
story with us so Tim’s just a normal guy
he goes to work works hard provides for
his family and he found you know over
the years he had some bad diet choices
and just overall you know not exercising
as much and just not eating as healthy
and he gained some weight and if you’ve
seen my video on how being overweight
affects your testosterone levels it’s
not good belly fat and fat is where
testosterone is aromatized into estrogen
so even if you have decent testosterone
levels and then you gain a bunch of
weight you’re gonna aromatize a lot of
that testosterone into estrogen and so
that decreases your testosterone level
it increases your estrogen level and
then on top of that estrogen helps you
gain more weight not the good way not
muscle weight bad way so it’s a
double-edged sword I have a video on it
and Tim found himself in this
predicament
so Tim ended up at his heaviest at 336
pounds and I’m here really to what he
sent me so I was at my heaviest weight
in 2017 of 336 pounds although I still
ate whatever I wanted I started eating
smaller portions and hitting the gym
five days a week this was November 2017
I was only eating lunch and dinner daily
and I lost weight I began TRT in March
2018 and by November 2018 I hit a wall
and my weight loss at a weight of 200
pounds I remained at this way until a
man entered my life on April 29th 2019
he took the time to explain while my
current eating methods were failing why
my weight loss stifled as well
why I had no results in the gym fast
forward to the current day as of October
20th 2019 I weigh 247 pounds I’ve been
on a basic meal plan low protein low fat
no carbs by choice and lots of free
foods broccoli masoor mint fresh foods
broccoli fresh spinach garlic mustard
sugar-free jell-o lettuce cauliflower
cucumber asparagus basically vegetables
he’s eating healthier foods lower fat
more nutritious while I haven’t seen
tons of results in the way of muscle
from my gym work I now understand with
the amount of body fat I’m carrying it
has and will continue to take time and
effort to get the visual results we are
all seeking I continue today on my
journey of hearing as strictly as
possible I continue today on my journey
adhering as strictly as I possibly can
to push myself to the next milestone
I’ve been asked what’s your goal weight
and I have said in the past 200 to 220
pounds in this Eric and arena nowadays I
answer there’s no goal weight as is a
lifestyle not a diet this guy tweaks the
meal plan when it’s warranted and this
will be ongoing until I’m able to read
and know what my body is telling me it
needs as far as sustenance I’m still
overweight but my health is increased my
confidence has risen I’m happiest I’ve
been in more than 20 years I’ve rambled
enough it’s time to hit the gym so there
you go guys you know Tim he realized
that he had hit you know a heavy point
he started to change and then he
enlisted someone who’s done a lot of
research and knows about this stuff and
to really help him and guide him through
it and not everyone needs that but some
people do Tim decided to get some help
absolutely nothing wrong with that
you know if someone if anyone knows more
than you about a subject and they’re
willing to help you why would you not
take their help so anyway so Tim started
eating healthier started going to the
gym you heard what he says his
confidence is up he’s feeling the best
tea house in 20 years I mean it’s just
amazing you know this is a really good
story and thank you again Tim for saying
this to me you know not a lot of people
want to put themselves on a public
platform you know with their heavier
pictures but I’m gonna show you the
pictures here of Tim’s before and after
and it’s drastic change it’s awesome
tim is very inspirational and so awesome
to see you know someone take their take
their life and just improve it so much
and to be so dedicated to do that and
that’s why I want to do more of these I
want to spread the positivity and try to
help fight the social stigma that trt is
just taking steroids and you know she
really show this changing people’s lives
you know I mean if tenet stayed on his
path he probably would have gained more
weight as he got older you probably have
had health problems you know all kinds
of health problems it would cost him a
lot of money but now he’s taking back
his life he’s getting his body back into
a better better shape I’m sure his
cholesterol has gone down sure his blood
pressure has gone down overall he’s just
feeling better so here’s some pictures

HCG / Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Guide For Men on TRT / Testosterone Replacement Therapy
welcome to the touch clothes Channel
today we’re going to cover HCG or human
chorionic gonadotropin try to say that
three times fast now HCG was actually used from about
2006 to 2011 as a weight-loss drug for
women and the idea behind it was that
they were injecting this pregnancy
hormone it would tell their body that
they were pregnant and it would help
them the body release calories more
freely now in 2011 the FDA jumped in and
they basically said no we’re not having
clinics just prescribe HCG we’re not
having over-the-counter HCG products it
hasn’t been proven to lose weight in
women so it’s banned for that but it
does have an important part in TRT so
when men inject HCG what it basically
does is it stimulates the lead excels in
your testicles and the lead excel’s are
the ones that produce testosterone so
the HCG tells leading cells to start
producing testosterone now HCG can be
used as a mono therapy meaning just by
itself to see if it can help raise the
man’s testosterone levels to a good
level but it’s also mainly used in
conjunction with testosterone to help
Meg preserve their fertility and to keep
their testicles from shrinking or
atrophy because when you inject outside
testosterone your body gets the signal
that it has enough and then it doesn’t
need to produce anymore so the testicles
don’t really have much to do so they
shrink down atrophy and men take HCG so
that they can keep the testicles the
same size or close to it and also
preserve fertility while on TRT so some
of the side effects of HCG are headache
restlessness irritability fatigue
depression swelling of the feet ankles
gynecomastia and a little bit of
at the site of the injection one thing
to note that ACG does raise your
estrogen levels so if you’re taking
testosterone and HCG you may have
elevated estrogen levels higher than you
would if you were just taking
testosterone because testosterone
aromatize –is and to estrogen not all
of it but some of that so HCG is
different than a lot of other medicines
HCG has to be injected doesn’t come in a
pill form and it has a very short shelf
life of 30 to 60 days you can also not
just walk into ending on the pharmacy
and pick up HCG it almost always has to
come from a compounding pharmacy which
make medicines to order so when you get
HCG from a compounding pharmacy you will
usually get a 10 ml vial of the powder
which is life and eyes which means it’s
HCG but it’s made into a powder form to
preserve its shelf life until you use it
and you’ll also get 10 ml of
bacteriostatic water water that inhibits
the growth of bacteria and you’re
usually going to syringe so this trips
up a lot of men because when you’re
dealing with these two sealed bottles
you’re dealing with air pressure so the
way I like to do it but always follow
the instructions is all usually take 3
ml of water inject it into the bottle of
HCG I will let the plunger come back
because that pressure is going to push
it that and then I’m going to extract 3
milliliters of air and pull the needle
out then I’m going to take that back
into the water put the pressure back
into the air the air pressure take three
more MLS inject it into the HCG let the
plunger come back if it does it all pull
out for this time put it back in the me
get to the water inject the air and then
pull the remaining 4 milliliters off
inject that into the HCG see if there’s
any pressure and then I usually just let
the HCG sit there’s a lot of people say
if you swirl it around and you shake it
up you can mess up the HCG I’m not a
scientist I’m not a chemist I don’t know
the exact method as to why that’s bad
for it but I normally just let it sit
and here’s the most important part a do
not freeze HCG and do not leave it
counter or accountant HCG needs to be
refrigerated if it is not refrigerated
it will lose its potency extremely fast
and you’ll waste about $100 of HCG so
always keep it in the refrigerator at
all times if you’re traveling they have
diabetic insulin needle kits that
actually have coolers built into them so
you can use something like that if
you’re traveling with HCG a dosages of
HCG vary greatly it’s usually between
200 by use a week or a thousand to 1500
I use per week I’m not here to talk
about dosages you need to do what your
doctor prescribes you and work with them
now one interesting thing about HCG is
some people believe that if you take HCG
at levels higher than a thousand or 800
for long periods of time you can
permanently desensitize your leading
cells which will make it so you will
never produce testosterone again I have
not come off of TRT so I can’t attest to
this I know a lot of men have done it
successfully after taking HCG for a good
amount of time but if that’s something
that concerns you and you’re just trying
TRT I would definitely do a lot of
research and talk to your doctor about
this so thanks for watching guys I hope
you found the video informative if you
can take anything away from this keep
your HCG in the refrigerator don’t
freeze it don’t put it in a cabinet put
it in the refrigerator that’s where it
lives so if you found this video

Free Testosterone VS Total Testosterone – What You Need to Know for Low Testosterone!
what’s going on guys welcome to the
texture levels channel today we’re going
to cover the difference between free
testosterone and total testosterone one
is much more important than the other
let’s get into it so one of the most
common tests that doctors order when a
man expresses concern about having low
testosterone and that is total
testosterone and usually my doctor did
the exact same thing only thing it’s my
blood test was total testosterone if
your doctor only orders a total
testosterone test when you’ve raised
concern about low testosterone it’s
probably a good sign that you need to
find a new doctor because they’re not
very educated and even if they do
prescribe btrt they’re probably gonna
give you a bad protocol which is just
gonna cause more issues going down the
road so total test is still important
because it shows how much actual
testosterone you have in your body but
it doesn’t tell the whole story you can
have a pretty decent total testosterone
level but still have all the symptoms of
low testosterone but how can this be I
mean if you’ve got a good total
testosterone number how could you
possibly have the symptoms or have low
testosterone so there’s something in
your body called SHBG which stands for
sexual hormone binding globulin and what
this does is it binds to your
testosterone in your body and when your
shb gets too high too much of your
testosterone is bound up and your body
can’t use it I have a video on
shbg if you want to learn more it’s
right up there click click so if you
have a high FSH BG and you should be
getting that tested if you’re think you
have a look at testosterone what happens
is that SHBG binds up to too much of
your testosterone and not enough of it
is available for your body to use and
that’s why you are having the symptoms
of low testosterone and this is why you
can have a good total testosterone
number and your doctor’s like hey you’ve
got a four hundred testosterone range
you’re good but without seeing your free
testosterone you don’t really know how
much testosterone for your body to
actually use
that’s why free testosterone
is more important than total
testosterone and like I said if your
doctor is only giving that total
testosterone test and coming back at 400
days tell him you’re good he doesn’t
have the full story you could have high
shbg and you could have a really low
free testosterone number so think about
it like this so let’s say you have a
$100,000 annuity but you’re only getting
$1,000 a month from the financial
company and you can’t pay your bills
well that’s not good and that’s the cool
of having low testosterone in this
example the $100,000 is your total
testosterone you have the money so that
thousand dollars a month is your free
testosterone so you have the cash but
you’re only able to use a little bit at
atonic not enough you need to pay all
your bills
now the SHBG is your financial company
that’s locking up that money and not
giving you enough money each month to be
able to pay your bills or enough
testosterone that your body can actually
use to do what it needs to do so you can
feel good so wrap up the video you know
the basic things that you need to get
checked if you’re thinking that you have
low testosterone is total testosterone
free testosterone estrogen with a
sensitive e to test and your SHBG you
can also throw in FSH and LH which is
follicle stimulating hormone and
luteinizing hormone those two will let
you know if your testicles are producing
enough testosterone or if they’re not
getting the signal to produce
testosterone so overall what we’ve
learned today is that total testosterone
does not give you a full picture of why
you may be feeling symptoms of low
testosterone free testosterone is
probably the most important number that
you need to look at and if your doctors
giving you a hard time about getting a
free testosterone test which you’re
paying for it’s a really good sign you
need to find a new doctor because even
if he does prescribe you TRT it’s gonna
be a bad time so thanks for watching the

Clomid Clomiphene Citrate For Men on TRT / Clomid Guide Dosage TRT Testosterone Replacement therapy
what’s going on guys today we’re going
to talk about clomiphene citrate or
clomid and a lot of doctors like to
prescribe clomid before they start trt
to see if they can help the body make
its own testosterone before injecting
testosterone so clomid was invented in
1956 and it was to help treat fertility
and ovarian issues with women it was
approved by the FDA in 1967 and it was
only approved to treat fertility in
women so when a doctor is prescribing
clomid for men they’re doing so what’s
called off-label which means they’re
prescribing the medicine that was not
approved by the FDA to treat something
different clément blocks the hormone
estrogen from interacting with pituitary
gland in the brain when estrogen
interacts with pituitary gland lower
levels of luteinizing hormone and
follicle stimulating hormone are
produced luteinizing hormone and
follicle stimulating hormone are the
signals in your testicles that tells
them to produce testosterone so when you
have low of both of those your testicles
may not be producing enough testosterone
and the idea behind climate is to get
those two levels up so that your
testicles can naturally produce enough
testosterone the result of men can be
very good and also can help preserve
sperm and fertility for men some people
staying at clomid can increase your
testosterone levels by one hundred or
even two hundred percent but your
mileage may vary
it depends everyone’s different everyone
reacts differently to different
medicines now before we go any further
if your doctor prescribes you clomid and
you’ve got any vision issues at all your
eyes feel fuzzy you can see little
floaters in your eyes or anything
related to your eyes discontinue
immediately and contact your doctor
Clement is known for having vision
issues and some of them can be permanent
so do not take this lightly do not
ignore it if you have any vision
side-effects or your eyes feel weird
discontinue and call your doctor
immediately
now one thing that clomid does have an
advantage
/ trt is that clomid does not cause
testicular shrinkage or atrophy
injecting outside testosterone shuts
down your body’s natural production and
causes your testicles to shrink or
atrophy so a lot of people report that
when they take clomid their testosterone
levels do get to a better range but
their libido does not rise to where they
would think it would be at this range
and the reason for that is clomid does
have some estrogenic properties so
sometimes these guys their Estrin levels
get higher than what they’re used to and
that can kill your libido a little bit
so please keep that in mind
the usual ranges for clomid is 12 and a
half milligrams 250 milligrams per day
but definitely listen to whatever your
doctor says taking vitamin E while
taking clomid has been shown in some
cases to help clomid get your
testosterone levels a little higher but
it’s not recommended to take more than
400 IU’s of vitamin E per day something
that’s interesting about clomid is that
while it can help with fertility and it
can help get your testicles working the
way they should
higher doses of clément can actually
negatively impacts firm production so
clomid can actually be used as a mono
therapy meaning that it’s the only
medicine being used to treat TRT and to
try to raise your testosterone but it
can be used in conjunction with
testosterone it’s just not very common
steroid users and bodybuilders have used
clomid for a long time and when they use
it is when they’re coming off of a cycle
they’re stopping taking outside
testosterone and they’re trying to get
their body to produce its own test
officer and again something known as
post psychotherapy and clones been a
staple in that for years so thanks for

Arimidex / Anastrozole For Men on TRT / Arimidex Guide and Dosage Testosterone Replacement Therapy
what’s going on guys welcome to the test
your levels channel today we’re gonna be
covering one of the most controversial
medicines and all of trt it’s an ask
Rizal also known as a rim attacks and
for the rest of video we’re calling it a
rim attacks and that’s most likely how
you’re gonna see it online anywhere else
people call it a rim attacks
[Music]
so Arimidex was approved in 1995 for
women with certain types of cancer and
the idea is to block the estrogen from
their bodies to help fight the cancer
I’m not sure of all the science behind
it but it seems to work that’s what it
was used for
so Rima Dex actually blocks androgens
from converting into estrogen and for
men on trt one of the biggest things
that you are going to have to monitor
and adjust is your estrogen levels now
there’s a lot of controversy on this
there’s lots of guys that think Arimidex
is poison you should never use it
there’s guys that say lower your
testosterone level until your estrogen
levels get in check and you’ll never
have to use the remm attacks now that
that works for some but it doesn’t work
for others and there’s other people that
have taken Rubin X for years they need
it even at low doses of testosterone
they still have high estrogen levels
probably due to genetics and they need
something to help keep that estrogen
under control and that’s where Arimidex
comes into play now before we get into
all the other stuff for the remedy X or
preface this hey this is not medical
advice I’m not a doctor so work with
your doctor closely on anything related
to Arimidex Arimidex is a very very
powerful compound the moves you’ll see
most men take on trt is 1 milligram per
week so think about that one milligram
of Arimidex per week so that lets you
know it’s very powerful it is not
something to mess around with do not
take too much of it do not go from
taking none to a lot or back down it
blocks estrogen it it can make it so
that you have no estrogen in your body
and you will feel horrible for weeks
until it comes back now it’s being a
little dramatic but I know people who
have misread labels and they’ve taken
way too much or they think oh I’m having
high estrogen symptoms let me just
double my Arimidex dose or triple it
that should cure it be very careful with
the rim attacks is not something they
mess around with some of the most common
side effects of Arimidex are hot flashes
muscle and joint pain and upset stomach
some of the long-term side effects can
be a lower good cholesterol level and a
raised bad cholesterol
level Arimidex is thought and could
possibly lead to bone loss and that’s
one of the big side-effects that men who
hate Arimidex
that they fear and that they don’t want
to deal with the problem with the remedy
is that since it’s pretty much used for
women with cancer they only use it for a
certain period of time whereas men on
trt are using it for long periods of
time and they’re not a lot of studies on
long term Arimidex use so please keep
that in mind I mean every medicine does
have side effects so you can’t really
avoid that and obviously the less
medicine you take the better but if a
remedy X is something that you need so
you can have normal testosterone levels
and normal estrogen levels well the
choice is up to you and it’s really a
personal decision between you and your
doctor once again not medical advice so
remembered X does not destroy or get rid
of estrogen in your body what it
actually does is it blocks an enzyme
that your body needs to be able to
convert testosterone into estrogen so
it’s not flushing it out it’s not
blocking it it’s Spacely making it so
your body has a harder time aromatize
making testosterone into estrogen which
overall leads to lower estrogen levels
but once again if you take way too much
and none of the testosterone your body
is converting into estrogen your that
stream level is going to be zero and
you’re gonna have really bad side
effects like edy lethargy you’re just
gonna feel bad so once again do not play
around with Arimidex so scientifically
on paper the best time to take a limit
acts is 24 hours after your testosterone
injection and the reason for this is
testosterone Peaks about three days and
Arimidex has a half-life of about 48
hours so the idea on paper is that your
testosterone peaks and the Arimidex
peaks at the same time so that in theory
will block more testosterone from
converting over into estrogen keep in
mind that’s just on paper
many people take it the same day they
inject or the day before I mean you can
do really whatever you want but that’s
the science take that with a grain of
salt I
just because it’s science but I’d ever
really noticed a difference so the
endocrinologist Association or whatever
they call themselves
they have no opinion of Arimidex they
only deal with testosterone so the
endocrine society’s clinical practice
guidelines for testosterone therapy an
adult man with low testosterone does not
address the potential issue of high
estradiol levels during trt as such the
endocrine society does not recommend for
or against any treatments that lower
estradiol levels also there’s currently
a lack of guidelines as to the critical
level whereby intervention is needed to
treat high levels of estrogen so
basically a large group of doctors who
deal with hormones really haven’t looked
into this and on YouTube and on the TRT
advice page on Facebook and the
testosterone subreddit I’ll leave links
to both of those in the video great
resources if you have some questions
because I can’t answer them all
so the typical doses of Arimidex that
men take on trt and this is not medical
advice is 0.125 to one milligram per
week now granted that’s just the common
numbers or some people that take a
little bit more but those are sometimes
special use cases now it’s kind of
annoying about Arimidex is the pills
when you get them from the pharmacy they
almost always come in 1 milligram
tablets and they’re super tiny they’re
tiny tiny so if you want to get a core
milligram of remedy X you have to chop a
little tiny pill into quarters and I’ll
tell you this right now no matter how
sharp of a knife you have or how
straight you are they’re never going to
come out exactly that’s just the way it
is it sucks but that’s what you have to
deal with now there are compounding
pharmacies that you can get to create
little gel caps with specific doses of
Arimidex the problem is a 1 milligram
pill with insurance or the good rx app
which I highly recommend are usually
about a dollar to a dollar 50 a pill now
when you start getting into the
compounding pharmacy and they’re
compounding you 0.125 milligrams it’s
gonna be about two dollars a gel cap I’m
really that great at math on the fly
especially with a camera in my face but
let’s just say that the gel caps are
more expensive than the tablets that was
authentic overall Arimidex is really
cheap it’s very effective at what it
does it’s very powerful and it’s very
controversial so something really
important about Arimidex is sometimes if
your doctor is proficient in TR t the
dosage it comes on your prescription
bottle may be different than what your
doctor tells you to take and the reason
for this is your doctors trying to get
the Arimidex he wants to make sure that
it’s covered by your insurance so that
it’s cheap but whatever the bottle says
it does not matter go by what your
doctor says it may say one milligram
twice a week and he may give you eight
pills for the month doesn’t matter what
the bottle says do what your doctor says
in closing grim attacks is very powerful
I’ve said this a few times or in this
video and I cannot stress it enough it
is very powerful
do not make crazy changes to your
protocol with the REM attacks because
you can tank your estrogen and you’ll
feel bad and it’s going to take a while
to feel better so be very careful with
it so do exactly what your doctor says

How To Lower SHBG with Supplements for Men on TRT / Testosterone Replacement Therapy
what’s going on guys test your levels
here welcome to the channel today we’re
going to discuss shbg and some
supplements that you can take to lower
your SHBG so a lot of men have an issue
where they have normal total
testosterone but their free testosterone
is low
this means that their body has less
testosterone that can actually use and
this can cause symptoms of low
testosterone even when your total
testosterone test pretty normal
SHBG or sexual hormone binding globulin
it can be one of the biggest causes of
this issue so shbg binds to your
testosterone and when it’s too high it
binds up a lot more of your testosterone
leave them with your body with less
testosterone to actually use so you can
feel good there are a lot of factors
that can cause shbg to be high genetics
extra body fat drinking alcohol a low
protein diet but outside of lifestyle
there are some supplements that have
been shown to lower SHBG levels but keep
in mind that everyone reacts differently
to different supplements so these may or
may not work for you or they may work
not as well as for some other people you
should always consult your doctor before
taking any supplements as you could have
interactions so check with your doctor
and make sure it’s okay to take either
of these vitamin d3 is all-around good
supplement for men on trt and men in
general it has been shown to raise
testosterone levels while also slightly
lowering SHBG levels the first men’s
clinic that actually went to they were
the ones that told me to take 5,000 IU’s
of d3 every day they said basically it
should be a staple for every man on trt
I’m still taking vitamin d3 to this day
and I actually have the same bottles
when I started because it’s like 400
capsules for like eight or ten bucks I
actually have an Amazon link in the
description if you want to check out the
vitamin d3 that I take or you can search
around fine
another type of d3 but 5,000 IU seems to
be the sweet spot to take but the
supplement that prompted this video is
boron and boron is a really good
supplement and it does a lot of things
in human body it’s been shown to improve
brain function lower issues with
arthritis
it can help metabolize insulin and can
help with kidney stones it can support
metabolic processes and can protect
against oxidative stress but outside of
those benefits boron has been shown in
studies to raise free testosterone up to
28% by helping lower SHBG but please
keep in mind your mileage may vary
another interesting aspect of boron is
that in different studies it has shown
to do different things to estrogen
levels in a one week study of men taking
boron they saw a 39 percent decrease in
estrogen however in a four week study
this study showed that boron actually
increased men’s estrogen levels so be
sure to monitor any estrogens like
symptoms either low or high while taking
boron some people recommend taking boron
for two weeks on one week off two weeks
on one week off I can’t personally
attest if this works because I actually
have lower SHBG so I’ve never taken
boron but that’s what some people say if
you’re having some issues with the
estrogen while you’re taking it that
could be something to try the typical
dose when you’re supplementing with
boron is 10 milligrams per day and if
you’re not into taking supplements
especially Poron you can actually get a
decent amount of boron from food but
it’s probably not going to hit that 10
milligram mark these foods are walnut
broccoli avocado almonds and raisins so

Is Xyosted a Breakthrough for TRT Users? What is Xyosted, How Does Xyosted Work, Xyosted Price?
what’s going on guys welcome to the test
levels Channel today I’m coming at you
with some futuristic new-age TRT let’s
jump in
so zyo stead was approved by a year ago
by the fda and what it is it’s basically
an auto injector for testosterone and it
injects either 50 75 or 100 milligrams
it’s only for subcutaneous bees through
nitro
[Music]
well I think this is a really cool idea
and it’s super nice just be able to
press this against your skin and it
injects a predetermined amount of
testosterone I also think it will help
men who are scared of needles or maybe
self injecting it does have two big
glaring issues which I’m going to cover
toward the end of the video so I’m gonna
show you a couple images of Zion aside
from their website and also a short
video on how it actually works it looks
as though it does a pretty decent job of
keeping men’s testosterone and healthy
ranges I do think it is a little low but
some men don’t and I wonder what happens
if a man is doing 100 milligram dosage
once a week and doesn’t feel good would
you just take a 50 would you just have
to live with it I’m just I would like to
know what happens in that situation now
this is yet another study done by the
makers of zyo said that subcutaneous is
a good method for testosterone
injections as I’ve showed in other
videos sungkyu and I am both absorbed
not the same with sub-q actually
absorbing a little bit slower
which can give you more stable levels of
testosterone apparently they use a
27-gauge needle
I would guess five-eighths or a half
inch and 99.4% of the injections were
nearly pain-free but as this device only
does sub-q that would be expected on the
bottom of this picture they show the
basic idea of how they dose this
medicine after six weeks of use so if
you’re over 650 they decrease you to the
50 milligram if you’re 350 or lower they
increase you to the 100 milligram and if
you’re 30 50 to 650 they keep you on a
75 milligram
gently squeeze the injection site to
create a raised area and hold that area
firmly until after the injection is
complete place the needle end of the
auto-injector
on the abdomen injection site keep the
auto-injector straight at a 90 degree
angle to the abdomen injection site
firmly push the auto-injector down on
the abdomen site and continue to hold it
down after you hear the click while
holding the auto-injector down slowly
count from 1 to 10 to allow all of the
medicine to be delivered keep holding
the auto-injector down for a total of 10
seconds so now I’m going to run through
an article written by a fine
- a company basically stock market stuff
on zyo said zyo said possesses superb
clinical profile as a trt and the hyper
competitive market involving decade old
generics price $25 a month the company’s
management should be commended for their
ability to grow sayest Ed’s
prescriptions to more than seven
thousand a month the drugs FDA
restrictions regarding cardiovascular
risk may be completely invalid as over
100 studies have proven that trt
actually decreases the risk of heart
disease
Ziya said may be one of the best
testosterone therapies available
when evaluated against competitors such
as a V or Nobita or undec Inouye depo
testosterone or testosterone sibian aid
or test the power which are the pellets
each and every single one of these drugs
possesses disadvantages with put zyo set
in the spotlight when competing against
sector players as for no beedo incipient
eight these are currently the most
prominent competitors as I of stem
however even these drugs have their fair
share of drawbacks patients taken Abid o
or simian eight have reported severe
fluctuations in mood libido and serious
risk of anaphylaxis respectively as
shareholders should see science that
possesses one of the best clinical
profiles of all the sceptre players it’s
superb efficacy low prevalence of
serious adverse events and negligible
risk of abuse makes it a leading
candidate in a total addressable market
estimated to be worth 2.2 billion
dollars so one thing that stood out to
me is the negligible risk of abuse so
basically what they’re saying is we
don’t want to give men testosterone that
they can dose on their own because
they’re going to abuse it which I’m sure
some people do but 99% of people on trt
are just happy to get any testosterone
at all and they’re gonna dosed it the
way they’re supposed to do so they can
feel better but once again this is one
of those stigmas that are attached to
steroids so as I’ve said sounding pretty
good right now
it’s an auto-injector it’s got some type
of testosterone that’s keeping men’s
testosterone levels really sable with no
side effects it’s better than sipping a
it’s better than a deck
it’s better than the pellets and what
kind of crazy testosterone is this it’s
a good stuff this is gonna revolutionize
trt so I did some research on this and
it’s a proprietary blend of long-acting
esters that’s formulated in a specific
proprietary carrier it’s an app that
guys it’s an Anthony it’s one molecule
off from sippy made an and fate was
invented in 1953 you gotta be kidding me
this thing is a fancy sub-q injector of
an anthe come on that’s the best the
pharmaceutical companies can do for us
these days repackage and anthe that’s
been around for over 50 years 60 years
yeah let’s move on let’s move on I asked
admit the auto injector is super nice
just to be able to pull the cap off wipe
your stomach with alcohol press it for
10 seconds boom you’re done that’s
convenient
I like it and now that we know that it’s
a manthe and an innovate super cheap you
know we got us a suspect that this can’t
be that much money so let’s figure it
out so a 10 mil bottle of Anantha is
about 30 to 40 dollars so let’s do the
math let’s say I’m taking the highest
dose worn 100 milligrams a week so in a
month that’s 400 milligrams that’s 2 ml
of 200 milligram concentration and
Nantais so in a month that’s 1/5 of a 10
ml bottle of an AM fate let’s just say
the AFA let’s round up to 50 bucks so
it’s 10 dollars worth of tax rural
medicine each month so let’s just say
we’ll add 20 bucks for each auto
injector so that’s an extra $80 on top
of the $10 for an ante so it’s about 90
bucks a month
definitely a premium when you compare it
to just insulin syringe and a 10 ml
bottle of an ante but I personally
wouldn’t pay that premium because
testosterone injection sub-q are pretty
easy but some of you might and it might
be a great option for you now here’s the
cash zà i of state is not $90 a month
it’s not $150 a month it’s over $500
with the good rx at $500 to inject $10
worth of Anantha that’s the
pharmaceutical companies for you that’s
the way the American Medical system
worked
it’s literally $10 retail of actual
medicine packaged into an auto-injector
which has already been created it’s
already in use and it’s $500 and there’s
7,000 people taking this per month
think about the markup on that just
think it’s insane and you know why
doctors like it because there’s
negligible risk of abuse and they don’t
have to have there not to lose sleep at
night over if their patients can inject
a little insulin needle into their
stomach because they can do with insulin
but testosterone that’s a whole
different ballgame that’s a steroid and
I don’t want my patients trying to
inject that scary test officer into
their belly fat this isn’t going on for
a long time with the pellets the sprays
the gels the patches they’re just trying
to find a way a new way to administer
testosterone when the tried and true way
is injections
the problem is injections are cheap
they’re $25 to $50 a bottle and they
last two months three months possibly
four months depending on your dosage so
they’re just repackaging testosterone in
two different ways that seemed safer and
less scary than injections and more
doctor friendly because it’s just a
spray in the nose or it’s a patch so
it’s it’s be us basically the
auto-injector is cool maybe 90 bucks a
month maybe I mean just for the
convenience factor but 500 bucks for ten
dollars worth of anything that was
invented in 1953 not for me not test
your levels of prudhoe nope and if
you’re all entire said I’m not trying to
make fun of you or anything like that if
that’s all your doctor will prescribe
you and you’re willing to pay the 500
bucks and you feel better
that’s fantastic but I would definitely
tell your doctor listen I can do an
insulin shot in my stomach once or twice
a week and if I can save $450 a month
and I’m gonna do that but anyway guys

put it in

Should I be taking Creatine Monohydrate on TRT? Muscle gains from creatine monohydrate?
what’s going on guys test your levels
here today we’re talking about creatine
and if you go to the gym and you don’t
know what creatine is I don’t know what
kind of rock you’re living under but if
you’re not taking creatine you’re going
to the gym you’re missing out on some
cheap proven gains so today we’re gonna
cover creatine I’m going to show you the
best creatine it’s cheap it’s about $10
a pound yes a pound and it works so
let’s get into it
[Music]
creatine is a natural compound it’s made
in your body for your kidneys your
pancreas and your liver and it’s also
found in most meats your body produces
about one gram of creatine per day
creatine is mainly stored in the muscles
and it helps deliver and provide energy
for your muscles most studies show that
taking five grams of creatine a day help
you build muscle when you’re working out
it pumps a little bit more water into
your body into your muscles and it helps
deliver extra energy to them so that you
can get those extra reps in and increase
your overall strength but like I said it
creatine is found in most meats but you
would have to eat two pounds of steak or
B three pounds of chicken and one and a
half pounds of herring to get those five
grams and that’s tough to do so that’s
why we supplement it so I have a link in
the description to the creatine that I
take its from bulk supplements it’s one
kilogram which is 2.2 pounds for like
1987 so it’s about ten bucks a pound and
you’re taking five grams a day so it
lasts a long time it doesn’t have any
taste to it you can put it in pretty
much any drink stir it up jam it I put
it in my protein shakes when I get back
from the gym so there’s a minor debate
on when to take creatine which is the
best time some people take it before
they work out some people say dating
after you work out is better it really
doesn’t matter in my opinion I take it
after in my protein shake but you can do
it any way you want but if you’re
interested in getting creatine I mean
this is a prudence the only proven
compound outside of testosterone and
some other like steroid stuff that is
proven to gain muscle so why would you
go to the gym and not get that extra 5
to 15% of muscle growth for 20 bucks so
it’s gonna ask you almost a year links
in the description guys creatine is good
stuff it’s scientifically proven to gain
muscle and we all want muscles so now
vegetarians because they don’t eat meat
they typically have the lowest levels of
creatine in their bodies cranberries are
actually the highest in creatine of any
plant out there but you have to eat 500
pounds of it to get 5 grams of creatine
so unless you really like cranberries
it’s not a viable option so outside of
strength power muscle gains muscle size
creatine also has some good effects on
the brain a 5% of the creatine in your
body is stored in your brain while the
other 95% is stored in your muscles so a
couple studies have shown that
supplementing creatine can actually help
some neurological stuff in your brain in
younger people and older people and
they’re actually checking out creatine
to see if it can help with Parkinson’s
disease another study showed that
creatine could help with mental fatigue
in extreme situations of sleep
deprivation and trauma so it does
something to the brain I mean it’s not
going to be night and day but you know
for the price that it cost and it being
a natural compound in your body and it
has all these great effects did I
mention that some preliminary studies
are starting to show that creatine can
actually lower some of the trunk lissa
rods in your blood that’s a good thing
so a couple other studies have shown
that creatine can improve the effects of
SSRIs so if you’re taking an SSRI you
could try creatine and see if it helped
at all even if it doesn’t you’re still
gonna get all the other benefits of
creatine creatine can also slightly help
with type 2 diabetes because it helps
the muscles grab more glucose out of the
bloodstream so now creatine basically
works for muscle growth and for weight
lifting is there something in your
muscles ATP and after the first couple
of reps you start to lose that ATP and
creatine kind of jumps in and replaces
the ATP is the energy source it’s more
complicated than that but basically it’s
giving your muscles a little extra
energy that they can use when you’re
really getting on those last reps so a
lot of power lifters take creatine a lot
of bodybuilders take creatine I mean
anyone who’s really into the fitness and
trying to maximize performance is taking
creatine there’s a lot of fancy creatine
out there marketed by all the big you
know supplement companies but it’s all
bs creatine monohydrate pure creatine
monohydrate is what works they can spin
that they’ve got some new micro
crystallized all that don’t listen to it
stuff I take it’s pure it’s good and
it’s
sheep and it works so as I said earlier
creatine puts a little bit more water
into your muscles and you can add some
water weight to you as well
and make you look probably not as ripped
but with that you need to make sure that
you stay properly hydrated
some of the minor side effects of
creatine if you’re not hydrated properly
is nausea diarrhea and you kind of kind
of cramp the stomach because it is like
a crystal so when you’re taking creatine
make sure to stay properly hydrated so
the typical doses for creatine and I
used to read these labels when I used to
go to GNC when I was a lot younger they
would say to take 20 20 to 25 grams a
day as a loading phase for the first
five days were for a week now in
creatine first bullet came out and
became popular some of these bottles or
30 bucks for 30 servings so they’re
basically telling you to take almost the
whole jar in a week and then go buy
another one and then start doing the
five milligrams but almost all the
studies on creatine and for all its
different positive effects they do do
this loading phase so there is something
to it back in the day I thought these
these supplement companies were just
trying to you know take money out of
your pocket and you just load up on
creatine pee it out and then you go buy
another jar but the loading phase is
actually legit I didn’t personally do it
when I started working out because I
still believe that it was just a
marketing type thing to get you to use
up all your creatine but it is
absolutely legit I’m not saying you have
to do it I mean I think over time if
you’re taking five grams a day you’re
gonna be fine and it’s eventually gonna
build up in your systems where you don’t
really need to do the loading phase you
can try it if you want but if you get
any stomach discomfort or gassy or
nauseous or anything like that probably
just stick with the 5 grams a day
overall guys I mean creatine is improved
in multiple times to work there’s lots
of studies on it you can look them up if
you want I mean it helps your
performance in the gym you get bigger
muscles you get stronger faster
we’ve covered a lot on creatine creatine
is improving in multiple studies to work
there’s tons of studies on it you can
look them up if you want it helps you do
extra reps at the gym pumps more water
and oxygen to your muscles can help with
strength 5 to 15% it’s super cheap and
there’s really no side effects to it and
it can also may help you a little bit
with your mental stuff maybe feel a
little more alert I don’t notice any
difference but you may ever e ones
different
and I mean 22 bucks for almost a year
supplied or 20 bucks that’s a pretty
damn good deal so I’d say guys if you
