How A High DHEA Index Can Benefit You
In this episode, I provide the research and first step you need to take to increase your DHEA Performance Index.
Back in 2016, I failed to increase my GISR because I had NO clue about the 3 main roadblocks.
I had 2 of them (including the winter diet).
And so, my body could not—would not—make optimal levels of DHEA, testosterone, and feel-good hormones.
Professor Sapolsky gave me the BIGGEST insight:
Neurotransmitters start the engine, and hormones fuel our behaviour and actions. Stress or performance hormones.
Are you performance-based?
Stress hormones higher than health lead to stress based thoughts; then to behaviours and actions, and finally to a slow stress-based metabolism.
Most people accept this as getting old. Don’t be most people.
Before 2018 I was stress-based and had no clue. My energy and mood were all over the place.
My life and confidence suffered. I called that life and getting old.
However, in October 2017, I learned about the roadblocks...
I learned about the DHEA and testosterone thieves...
I worked with a coach because I wanted to get this right.
In 2018, I set into motion what I had learned.
Things got better fast.
My GISR increased and stayed there.
Day after day—week after week—month after month, and now, year after year.
You might be thinking...
I'm too old!
You're not! I'm 48—age is not an issue.
Do I need elite genetics?
Hell no! Not to put a too fine a point on it, but my genetics are crap!
First, I had my genome sequenced, and I have an abysmal rate of my body making performance hormones. This is due to multiple factors, one being my crappy vitamin D receptors.
Second, I have a 2.76 FOLD increase in the risk of obesity. Let me restate that I have a 276 per cent higher chance than most people of getting fat. But I'm not; I easily maintain a 10% body fat level year-round.
Third, I have a genetic propensity of producing HIGH-stress hormones because I have a hyperactive enzyme called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). The ACE enzyme directly inhibits my ability to make performance hormones. But NOT anymore. My GISR is high, year after year.
How about you?
If you're sick of living small and increasing your GISR sounds like something you want to learn more about, ask me how or keep listening to these podcasts.
