theguerillachemist One of the most overlooked supplements that everyone(athletes or not) should be taking is magnesium(Mg). There are over 300 bodily processes in which Mg is involved, including tons of enzymes. This study showed a direct correlation between serum Mg levels and biomarkers for...

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is commonly viewed as the evil androgen responsible for hair loss and prostate issues. DHT does serve any purposes in the body, and reducing or eliminating this hormone may be the wrong thing to do for most people. Similar to estrogen, DHT is a testosterone metabolite...

Zinc is a critical mineral for many biological processes. This study in rats shows how a zinc-deficient diet can affect androgen binding, aromatization and conversion to DHT. This study fed rats either a deficiency or surplus of Zinc through diet and had some pretty significant results. This...

theguerillachemist HOW TO COMBAT CHOLESTEROL EFFECTS OF STEROIDS: Androsterone is a naturally occurring androgen, similar in structure to DHT, only differing in the position of the 3-hydroxy group is alpha(below the ring) vs the normal beta(above the ring). Bc of this, androsterone is a...

theguerillachemist Today, being #420, I thought it'd be appropriate to give some more insight as to the effects of THC as related to exercising. We all have seen Arnold smoking weed at the end of pumping iron, and he has said a lot of bodybuilders in his era smoked so that they could eat more...

theguerillachemist<!-- react-text: 39 --> As you may know, testosterone and many other androgens can be converted in the body to DHT via the enzyme 5alpha reductase(5aR). This enzyme adds 2 hydrogen atoms across the double bond between carbons 4 and 5. However, trenbolone cannot be reduced by...

Androgen Receptors Explained by Anthony Roberts One of the most peculiar things about the steroid community, and in particular, the online steroid community, is the ongoing level of misinformation about the androgen receptor and the...

Anabolic Steroids (AAS) Effects on Muscle By William Llewellyn Although testosterone has been isolated, synthesized, and actively experimented with for many decades now, there is still some debate today as to the exactly how we see steroid effects on muscle mass. At this point in time, the...

by Patrick Arnold A considerable chunk of my work day is always spent answering people’s questions about prohormones and steroids. Of course, one of the biggest concerns people have is about estrogen and estrogen related side effects. Right behind that however are questions about DHT. It seems...

Androgenic hormones such as testosterone and anabolic steroids (as well as prohormones) have long been used by athletes for their effects on increasing muscle mass and strength. The anabolic effect on muscle is certainly not the only physiological effect that these hormones possess however, and...

It's really not quite correct to say androgens suppress or stimulate the immune system. It is a bit more complicated than that, not surprisingly. Here is Immunology 101 in a nutshell. The immune system has two "arms of attack": the cell mediated arm and the humoral arm. The cell mediated arm...

Androgens Are Not Evil! The field of androgen physiology is as fascinating as it is frustrating. Not only do mainstream journalists get the “facts” wrong, but also many of my own science colleagues are more than willing to sacrifice “scientific fact” for political correctness. God forbid you...

Written by John Romano There is more than one school of thought regarding the downside of steroid use. While we know the exaggerated claims of horrific death and disease are largely a hoax; we cannot deny that for some people, there is an undeniable effect to their psyche. It can be as good as...

The therapeutic use of androgens via SARMs This is a great article on the growing use of Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs). Maybe you should visit https://www.musclechemistry.com/ and get yours today. Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) are a novel class of...

FIRST, I HAVE NEVER DONE INSULIN. I FOUND THIS ARTICLE AT FG AND THOUGHT IT WAS GOOD INFORMATION FOR ANYONE COMPETING OR HAS A GOOD REASON TO DO SOMETHING SO RISKY, IMO. Either way I love reading about the things others do to gain muscle/lose fat. If I was 12-15 years younger and had a chance to...
