That is good enough for me
I will stick with my WP
Any suggestions on good NBE sources of progesterone and prolactin?
Basically, I do a version of the Mediterranean Diet. I take 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil (am & pm) 14 grams fat/ 120 cal ea. (per day). Doing so provides me pain relief (e.g. anti-inflammatory @ 15% of ibuprofen), polyphenols (similar to EGCG aka. green tea), added bonus of free radical inhibitors (which free radicals destroys fat cells......bad for boobs if you know what i mean), reason to have antioxidants in the plan. Though adding omega 3's is a good idea too.
Ella shared a video series where it was pointed out 1-2 apples per day helps protect good gut bacteria, imo it helps against stomach bloat pain too. Speaking of stomachs, the fight (battle) against visceral fat from using phytoestrogens/estrogen is fierce. I'd like to figure out exactly how many calories does estrogen add per dose?, maybe there's some hidden formula we just don't know yet, say like a 2000-2500 cal diet can (and will) add...I dunno?, like how does weight gain even happen in an otherwise active lifestyle on 2000-2500 cal per day, need to figure this one out lol. Humans burn calories (fat) while sleeping, though everyone is different an avg is 500 cal.......factor in those 500 calories burned from the fitness, that's 1000 calories spent in a 2000-2500 daily calorie count, the net total is a 1500 calorie diet. Homones are derived from cholesterol, the signal to produce them (sex-hormones) come from the hypothalamus pituitary axis (or pathway) signal, in other words.....your metabolism of estrogen.
Anyways lol, I came across a study where scientists have figured out an alternate pathway that DHT takes (from adrenal androgens to be exact), and being blocking this pathway DHT is said to eliminate DHT completely......I posted the study info in another thread. The fact is, (type I) 5 alpha reductase inhibitor has this potential. Androstenedione is what I'm talking about.
It's going to be a two drug (or supplement) combination punch to take out DHT, like EPO/green tea, or reishi/epo.... maybe a couple of others.
Add a mediterranean diet rich in monopolyunsaturated fat (good fat), that's heart heathy and also reduces weight, I'd say a low fat diet for boob growth is a no go, I think it leaves boobs flat, deflated if you will.
And without a doubt...a fitness plan. The bare minimum from (my experience) is burning at least 500 cal a day, for instance, and ideally: a 15 min (moderate pace) of cardio (i.e stationary bike), 50-100 squats per day, and 50-100 crunches per day. Massage and strengthening breast ligaments/muscle helps too.
For progesterone (food source) I like avocados, for otc use, I prefer smoky mountain pc brand. Though vitex raises prolactin and progesterone (120 mg per day).
