Question about diet

Eating hormones is where the flawed logic about this shit breaks down. Pun intended.

Here's the issue.... there's no direct route from your gut to your bloodstream, where hormones belong. That means they get broken down and mostly inactivated by the contents of your digestive system.

That's why testosterone pills don't exist, and why other steroids in pill form are huge burdens on the body, especially the liver, and since dosages are altered by the gut in an unpredictable fashion, you never really know what you're getting into your blood.

On top of that, the positive and negative redundant feedback loops that control hormone production an regulation are sensitive... if the body sees an increase in estrogen, it'll simply slow the conversion rate of testosterone. You do know all humans, male and female have estrogen in them baseline, right?

Worrying about soy and milk and plastics is mostly a scare tactic/clickbait.

So GOMAD if you want. The nutrient content vastly overwhelms any miniscule concerns about steroids, antibiotics, cocaine, etc.

Yes, it's true. But that's because cows are grain-fed and not grass-fed, thus containing more estrogen, but it's not significant (if it's grass-fed). I recommend getting grass-fed cheese to get calcium, if not, just eggs will do, I recommend to ear 3+ eggs per day. Getting grass-fed animal products it's an idealized state, if you can't afford it, just get regular cheese and eggs.

Also, stay away from sugar and gluten for the most part.
