"DHEA - The Real Story"

[Java Man]

I did blood work 9 times last year as well as two 24 hours urine things and each time I tweeked it so I know how I felt at different levels and different things. Yes it took a year but I know my body very well and what works for me and can tell if something is off. Also I still run blood-work every 6 months just to be 100% safe but nothing ever changes now.

This is one of the smartest things I've read in a long time! We change the oil at regular intervals and run diagnostics on our vehicles when they "don't feel right" but how many of us do the same with our bodies? Which is worth more? This is one reason among many why online discreet labs like ************* are such a godsend. In the US, we can't even go to a lab and get tests done even if we pay out of pocket... a physician has to order it or they won't do it! WTF is that about? I asked my local lab if I could get some hormone tests done if I paid for it myself, off the record for insurance purposes, and that's what I was told. It's difficult to monitor your own body when the government basically prohibits it without getting permission first.

So back on topic, what do you guys think of 7-Keto DHEA? It's time for me to re-order Pregnenolone and DHEA and I ran across this so looked it up. Wondering if some of you with medical backgrounds or otherwise are in the know about this particular "strain"? Anyone have any good links to share on it? tanks!

99.7/100 random people couldn't interpret the tests they ordered by themselves and would likely do more harm than anything good. This isn't saying anything about whether it should be allowed or not, just that the general public might not benefit like they would a car checkup.

Now, as far as legality goes, I thought most states allowed non-prescribed labs to be drawn except NY and maybe some others.

Medicine is a very litigious thing in the USA. Perhaps more important than overall health (in many instances) is liability.

Actually, the government has very little to do with this at all. IMO, it is the insurance companies who want to control every dollar in health care.
