[Lotus]

I love these posts, thank you so much for this info lotus! I think I will get back on L-arginine. Everything you listed here was in my NBE program and it's no wonder it worked out for me! I also read something on riboflavin and B vitamins, promoting protiens and stuff, that is nbe friendly right? bc when I was taking my B complex it aided in my NBE too I noticed

Ur welcome missB, I like having new options too. That's something alright (re: riboflavin), B-complex favors breast growth. Not surprising is how vitamin C & D keep showing up in support of healthy beasts (or overall breast health). Some new(er) information points out that zinc can completely inhibit DHT, though dose dependant, my calculation from one study puts this at 160 mg (est.). Now, one thing that happen is that when DHT is being inhibited it gives rise for T, and my theory is that's gonna be free T (the active form of T), the exciting part is the potential boost of free Estradiol if a pro-aromatase is introduced, timing with the supplementation of an Pro-Aromatase being critical......15-20 after zinc dosage imo.

Abstract
The effects of zinc sulphate and azelaic acid on 5 alpha-reductase activity in human skin were studied using an in vitro assay with 1,2[3H]-testosterone as substrate. When added at concentrations of 3 or 9 mmol/l, zinc was a potent inhibitor of 5 alpha-reductase activity. At high concentrations, zinc could completely inhibit the enzyme activity. Azelaic acid was also a potent inhibitor of 5 alpha-reductase; inhibition was detectable at concentrations as low as 0.2 mmol/l and was complete at 3 mmol/l. An additive effect of the two inhibitors was observed. Vitamin B6 potentiated the inhibitory effect of zinc, but not of azelaic acid, suggesting that two different mechanisms are involved. When the three substances were added together at very low concentrations which had been shown to be ineffective alone, 90% inhibition of 5 alpha-reductase activity was obtained. If this inhibition is confirmed in vivo, zinc sulphate combined with azelaic acid could be an effective agent in the treatment of androgen related pathology of human skin.
