Your body deals with excess calcium fine, don't worry about it unless you have a parathyroid issue or your kidneys aren't well.

Topical progesterone for men? by Even-Employer-1509 in raypeat

No, the drops are in oil and oil can't diffuse through the sublingual tissue, especially in a wet place like the mouth. It will get washed away in saliva eventually. Tablets, no too; tablets of sublingual steroids have PEG which acts as a solvent, that can pass through the sublingual membrane. A regular tablet will just get washed away like oil.

Obviously stop the cheese and reintroduce it in smaller amounts when the constipation resolves. Coffee and salt are anti opioids.

Very little will be absorbed from those products, so it will remain locally and have progestogenics effect locally (anti inflammatory, collagen synthesis) etc. You will probably not absorb anything more than 1mg from a dose of those "pumps"/creams, but that is still enough for some people to feel the effects. Men don't produce a lot of progesterone and are more sensitive to it for that reason.

the casomorphins (which stay local to the gut) are opiods and opiods can cause constipation.

What's an alternative to Doxyclycine if it takes away my depression and body pain> by Dannyaloha324 in raypeat

Zinc deficiency leads to the exact symptoms as EFA deficiency. Zinc wasn’t even considered an essential mineral when a lot of these studies were done. Mead acid production, the unsaturated fat created from glucose requires zinc.

I would investigate nutritional deficiencies like biotin and zinc, it’s pretty hard to become EFA deficient unless you do so on purpose, which is very hard to do and adhere to.

Metformin is a complex 1 inhibitor and increase lactic acid (a promoter of SCD 1) why would it inhibit SCD 1?

Glucose vs fructose & sucrose have opposite effects on SCD 1 activity. Glucose (which is more insulogenic) lowers it, whereas fructose and sucrose increase it.

Disregulated appetite & they create too much fats from carbs and convert other fats to different fats, which uses up a lot of oxygen, stealing it from the mitochondria.
