Best Protocol for stopping TRT?
First, thank you to the entire Huberman Lab team for changing the lives of countless fellow primates! I was seduced by a TRT clinic at age 38 with my T being in a normal range(was around 500). After 1 year and 3 months, I now want to stop and return my body to natural homeostasis. My clinic is recommending to ween off T and boosting up my Clomiphene intake. What is the best protocol to stop or ween off my regimen? Per week I am on: 0.7mL T 50mg Clomiphene(HP3) 0.5 Anastrozole
Severe Dopamine Depletion
If I'm almost 100% certain of severe dopamine depletion, how should I best replenish it? Should I cease ALL dopaminergic activities for some time including those that are good for me? Limiting passive dopaminergic activities to 2-3 evening hours doesn't seem to make things better. During the day I'm doing "productive" things I would like to enjoy but rarely do so.
Dealing with blood pressure caused by anxiety
I am a healthy in shape 35 year old, but I suffer from chronic anxiety mostly acquired from my combat deployments. I take my health into my own hands, but one aspect I can’t get under control is my blood pressure. It started out with white coat syndrome at the doctor but would still have normal reads at home. Now I’m at the point where as soon as I hit the button and feel the cuff tighten my anxiety gets the best of me, my HR sky rockets and I get a ridiculously high number that I know isn’t a normal reading. Any idea how to deal with this?
Metabolism - Longevity - Blood Sugar Levels
In several podcasts I understood that maintaining a low / balanced blood sugar level is key to longevity (besides the items sleep, exercising, low-/balanced carb diet, etc.) - however, even in a very low carb diet, I observed (via a continuous blood glucose monitor from levels) that sugar levels can spike or stay at high level (110-120mg/dl) nevertheless; I do also recall that the liver can produce sugar / glucose too!? Therefore my question: which "actions" can be undertaken, to reduce blood sugar levels sustainably to a recommended level in order to target longevity (looking at the prior mentioned phenomenon of glucose-neo-genesis in the liver and countering this effect) ?
