Endometriosis

WOuld you please do a deep dive into endometriosis, causes,and treatments? This is a debilitating female disorder which is often missed by gynecologists. The endometrium can grow outside the uterus on and around ovaries as well as internal organs, colon, spine, etc, and cause severe debilitating pain every month as the hormones cycle. Just about every woman in my family has suffered from it and in every case, the diagnosis has come after decades of complaining and being ignored by our gynecologists. The diagnosis has come only during hystorectomy when the surgeons have opened up the abdominal cavity. scraping off the endometrial tissue during the surgery has provided only partial relief as it appears that the tissue grows back post surgery. What are our options? Is there any good research out there that can illucidate the causes and potential cure or treatment to eliviate the pains it causes? How can hormone replacement therapy be accomplished in combination with treatment for endometriosis? Please help, Peter. This is affecting a high percentage of women going based on my anecdotal evidence.

Charles Brenner

Is there any way possible to give us a little of the "inside baseball" of your industry? In particular, the actions of Charles Brenner. I am well aware of who he is, I'm a ChromaDex customer. It's weird the level and veracity of twitter trolling he (Brenner) engages in. Just wondering.

Artificial Sweeteners and Insulin

Could you answer whether artificial sweeteners raise insulin levels? Seems clear they don’t impact blood glucose. However, Huberman recently had a review stating studies show insulin rises when these sweeteners are consumed with food. What are your thoughts on the health impacts of this? For example say a protein shake with artificial sweeteners.

Is Dave Feldmans lean mass hyper responder study with cardiologist a good study?

Since you took the time to have Dave Feldman on your podcast and stated you didn’t believe his lipid energy hypothesis can you let us know if you feel his study on LMHR vascular health will help get to the truth? If not what would you like to see?
