Physiol Behav. 2004 Sep 15;82(2-3):357-68. Anxiety and aggression associated with the fermentation of carbohydrates in the hindgut of rats. Hanstock TL, Clayton EH, Li KM, Mallet PE. Lactic acid accumulation in the caecum and colon resulting from the fermentation of carbohydrates can lead to deleterious effects in ruminant and monogastric animals, including humans. In the [...]
Growth hormone clearly causes edema, and this is probably involved in the pathological processes that it can produce. -Ray Peat, PhD J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 1991 Apr;72(4):768-72. Expansion of extracellular volume and suppression of atrial natriuretic peptide after growth hormone administration in normal man. Møller J, Jørgensen JO, Møller N, Hansen KW, Pedersen EB, Christiansen [...]
Therapeutically, even powerful toxins that block the glycolytic enzymes can improve functions in a variety of organic disturbances “associated with” (caused by) excessive production of lactic acid…But several nontoxic therapies can do the same things: Palmitate (formed from sugar under the influence of thyroid hormone, and found in coconut oil), vitamin B1, biotin, lipoic acid, [...]

Intern Med. 1998 May;37(5):472-5. A hypopituitary patient who attained tall stature without growth hormone. Kageyama K, Watanobe H, Nasushita R, Nishie M, Horiba N, Suda T. We describe an unusual patient with hypopituitarism who attained tall stature even without growth hormone (GH). A 37-year-old man was devoid of secondary sexual characteristics, but manifested tall stature [...]

A 1994 publication (B. Zumoff, “Hormonal profiles in women with breast cancer,” Obstet. Gynecol. Clin. North. Am. (U.S.) 21(4), 751-772) reported that there are four hormonal features in women with breast cancer: diminished androgen production, luteal inadequacy, increased 16-hydroxylation of estradiol, and increased prolactin. The 16-hydroxylation converts estradiol into estriol. -Ray Peat, PhD Obstet Gynecol [...]
The thumbnail below is a revisable chart that portrays factors that promote efficient or inefficient energy metabolism. The goal of the health conscious should be to maximize the effects of the promoters of efficient metabolism while minimizing the effects of the factors that lead to inefficient metabolism. Some of the factors that promote inefficient metabolism [...]
J Strength Cond Res. 2010 Mar;24(3):639-43. Influence of supervision ratio on muscle adaptations to resistance training in nontrained subjects. Gentil P, Bottaro M. The purpose of the present study was to compare the changes in muscle strength in nontrained young males performing resistance training under different supervision ratios. One hundred twenty-four young men were randomly [...]
