hey all..i was just curious..whats the difference between NBE and just taking the hormones? I know NBE is a lil safer cause it's natural but the changes are the same, the effects would be similar so why would the hormone pills be that much more dangerous? i mean ur still altering the hormone levels wouldnt that be the danger part regardless which meathod?
Always wondered this myself as well. As for the natural thing, natural isnt always safe, you can still take natural phytoestrogens and send yourself into kidney and liver failure by overdosing your limits and making your body chemistry so far gone that it can kill you. I guess it plays into the saying, too much of a safe thing is dangerous still.
Only difference i can think of without researching online a bit just an off the head assumption is the difference of synthetic and natural. I assume natural you are more in control perhaps, opposed to medicinal hormones you are given an amount to take and that is that. I'm sure im very wrong but its just my guess
What an urban myth that natural means safe. Arsenic is natural, but I wouldn't want to eat any. Carbon monoxide is natural, but I wouldn't want to breathe any.
I think the big thing here may be all of the highly publicized news reports about adverse reactions to pharmaceuticals. Since these are regulated (let's not get into how well right now), the reactions must be reported. And what with the large number of people taking them, there are many more people with adverse reactions. NBE is pretty much done on an individual basis and no one reports that their friend took an excessive amount of some herb or supplement and had a severe reaction, but that can happen.
Sorry for the rant, but natural things can kill you every bit as dead as pharmaceuticals.
