Key Pieces

I have added the label KEY to pieces talking about using diet and potentially supplements to do DIY HRT. It's the only label currently on the site and it's purpose is to help ME follow my own thought processes.

I considered using something else. It doesn't really matter what I call it. The point is I need to be able to readily find certain things again easily to do Einstein style thought experiment science and not lose the thread and go someplace incredibly stupid.

My goal is a DIY HRT protocol that doesn't involve injections and is easier than making your own gel etc at home and, hopefully, involves nothing currently illegal.

I'm aware there are crazy people on planet Earth who belong in a straight jacket and padded cell who MIGHT try to outlaw fresh fruits or high cholesterol foods or B vitamins IF they conclude "You can use NUTRITION to MAKE hormones!!!! Le gasp!!!! This must NOT be tolerated!!!!"

A. Yes, idiot, you CAN use nutrients to MAKE hormones. That's what human bodies do all day everyday already. Sorry you are so stupid and also insane.

B. Hopefully, planet Earth will NOT be so retarded and mentally deranged that it will agree that it makes sense to outlaw nutritious food to cater to a few outlier crazies who want to do that "because SOMEONE might MISUSE food according to my weirdo nutjob values that really should have me in THERAPY, not in political office!!!!"

If this works, it has much broader application than just helping people with sex hormone disorders that fall under the trans umbrella. It has potential to help cis women with PMS, people with fertility problems, cis women undergoing menopause and various others.

Knowledge is power. If we can determine X foods have thus and such hormonal consequences, for SOME people that will tell them what to AVOID. 

I'm posting more broadly than just this narrow idea of "Would it be possible to use nutrition (food and/or supplements) to intentionally tweak your hormones?" and some of my posts are not necessarily even obviously about HRT at all.

Too bad, so sad. I have ALWAYS tended to see "on topic" in broader terms than other people and it has a long history of getting me crabbed at by people who think their narrower definition is correct and my broader definition makes me socially badly behaved.

It's a blog. I'm NOT promoting it and it's a sandbox for ME to flesh out ideas, which inherently means NOT agreeing with current definitions, boundaries etc.

It's bound to be a messy process and you are welcome to not read it if my mess offends you.
