DHT is testosterone on steroids. When men think they want more testosterone, they're referring to DHT. Here are 2 main reasons why DHT is better than testosterone. DHT is 10 times more potent than testosterone. DHT binds uniquely to the androgen receptor and does things testosterone cannot. It's been shown that DHT is so important, that when testosterone is over 350ng/dl, DHT is the main hormone that makes you feel more alpha and reduces aging male symptoms (low testosterone symptoms). #1 Increase testosterone About 10% of testosterone converts to DHT. Increasing testosterone will result in more DHT. If testosterone is low, you can't expect to have high DHT. #2 Increase DHEA DHEA is a hormone produced in the adrenal glands. It's a weak androgen but does have important benefits in the brain, such as enhancing mood, motivation, libido and of course, converting to 5 alpha reduced steroids, such as androsterone and DHT. Whereas testosterone levels drop by about 1-2% per year, DHEA levels drop by 2-3% per year. Much faster. In this graph, you can see how rapidly DHEA declines with age. A 3-fold drop from 12 to 4 from the age of 40 to 80. In this graph, you can see how effective DHEA supplementation increases DHT levels, without majorly increasing testosterone. You can focus on boosting DHEA naturally (the same way you'd go about boosting testosterone) or simply supplement DHEA in doses of 25-50mg (get tests done to see how effective it is for you). #3 Optimize T3 Thyroid hormone T3 is a powerful inducer of 5 alpha-reductase. As you can see in this graph, T3 boosts 5AR2. Too low T3 can lead to low 5AR and low DHT and allopregnanolone. In my DHT course, I show you exactly how to optimize thyroid function. #4 Improve gut health There is about 70 times more DHT in the gut than in the blood. In this graph, you can see how much higher DHT is in the cecum and colon compared to the serum and liver. The more of that DHT is reabsorbed, the higher your DHT will be. When gut health is suboptimal (dysbiosis, overgrowth of pathogenic bacteria, low beneficial bacteria, leaky gut, etc.), intestinal DHT levels drop and DHT excretion is increased. Similar to how there are bacteria in the gut that can deactivate testosterone, there are also bacteria that can deactivate DHT. This means that your testes can produce optimal amounts of testosterone, but because of these bacteria, you can have low circulating testosterone. Optimizing gut health is crucial for optimal testosterone, DHT and T3 as well as general health. In my DHT course, I show you how to optimize your gut health and also what test to do and exactly how to analyze the test yourself. Some supplements improve gut health and increase 5AR at the same time. They are part of my DHT starter stack. #5 Fix all micronutrient deficiencies Vitamin and mineral deficiencies control everything in the body. If there is a deficiency, energy, testosterone, DHT and thyroid hormone as well as healing and much more become impaired. Illness develops because of these deficiencies. Nutrient deficiencies, such as zinc, vitamin B1, B3, B5, B6, biotin and so on have been shown to lower DHT production. Eating a nutrient-dense diet, such as the TestoDiet, is the best way to replenish those nutrients to maximize testosterone and DHT. *********** In my DHT course, I teach you everything related to DHT optimization. From diet to gut optimization and everything in between that's necessary for DHT. If you want to benefit from DHT, now you'll know exactly how. https://t.co/LzBSd2YLWt

You can go from beta to chad overnight How? Supercharge dihydrotestosterone (DHT) Why? DHT is the ALPHA MALE hormone Increasing DHT will: - Enhance confidence - Increase motivation/willpower - Boost alertness & reaction time - Max out sex drive/performance - Reduce fat + water retention It’s much more potent than testosterone in this regard So how do you increase DHT without directly injecting it testosterone? 1) TRIBULUS TERRESTIS Tribulus contains a potent steroidal molecule called protodioscin This saponin upregulates DHT production via enhancing 5αR enzyme expression. In human studies, 112.5mg of protodioscin per day increased serum DHT by 28% It also lowered prolactin (the coomer hormone) by 56% Tribulus isn’t a "testosterone booster" It’s a DHT booster 2) BUTEA SUPERBA Butea Superba is a lesser-known Thai herb with proven aphrodisiac effects in human + animal studies One case study showed it boosted DHT to 1.5x the top of the reference range Need more research on this one ASAP, but it definitely has an androgenic effect based on my own experimentation 3) BORON Boron is an androgenic mineral that inhibits sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) This frees up testosterone, but also frees up DHT to an even greater extent This is because SHBG binds to and deactivates DHT with The end result is significantly increased free DHT Pro tip: Tongkat Ali is another potent SHBG inhibitor that has been proven to increase free testosterone (and likely free DHT as well) 4) AVOID 5AR ENZYME & ANDROGEN RECEPTOR INHIBITORS - Reishi Mushroom - Finasteride - Dutasteride - Pesticides - Plastics (especially BPA) 5) OPTIMIZE THYROID (T3) Higher T3 levels (don't go overboard) generally leads to: - Higher DHT - More androgen receptors T3 has been specifically shown to: - Induce 5αR expression - Boost AR synthesis In fact, hypothyroidism is thought to be one cause of micropenis because of low DHT 😂 In one study, T3 treatment boosted DHT in humans by 3x On top of that, hyperthyroidism (high T3) is linked to abnormally high DHT levels Fix your thyroid 6) WILD YAM EXTRACT Similar to Tribulus, Wild Yam (Dioscorea Nipponica) contains very high levels of protodioscin Protodioscin helps turn testosterone into DHT Full guide below
