mostly since I was a vegetarian diet,(huge caloric deficit) and my cholestrol went from 220 to 150 and at the same my testostrone went from 348 to over 650ng/dl.(all within 11 weeks, while I was losing 80lbs of fat and eating eggwhites/tons of veggies/and some fruits and minerals)
I'm no expert but reading these few sentences it seems to me that
1)Losing 80lbs in 11weeks is a lot of weight done very very fast
2)You didn't just use diet, i bet you exercised a lot too.
3)Either way, exercise or diet that causes weight loss means less oestrogen running round your body and more testosterone being produced-irrelevant of what you ate in those 11 weeks- all your fat you already had stored on your hips.
As for telomeres and diet--- i'd assume that the less you eat, the less cells would need to divide therefore the longer the current telomere length stays. I wouldn't think it increases the telomere length which is a completely different kettle of fish.
As for your posts, as i said before, they are difficult to see what you are asking, lots of information dumped into the posts and very often recurring questions on several of your posts--- then most of the time you have your own answer.
It is not clear what you are asking
you are extracting information and putting it together while leaving stuff out?
I agree, you are no expert at reading? is that what your 1st sentence means?
Its not a big deal if english isnt your 1st language, it's not mine, but I can answer whatever question you have if you just ask your question and dont passive/aggressively try to summarize and then attempt to bash me with your inability to understand what I've written.
right in 2012, I lost 80lbs in 10-12wks it was to win a contest/worth ~$2k usd
2-yes, I did both ate in a caloric deficit(veggies/eggwhites/fruit/supplements, and lifted weights 3x week(as I won via bodyfat percentage lost, not just weight), did cardio(walked a lot)
3-? eh?
estrogen running out? eh? I don't know what you are talking about? as I've said, I know by losing the belly fat, which has lots of aromatase which converts testosterone into estradiol, I stopped that conversion and thus raised on T-level.
my point was I was eating low fat,(10-15% at most) I wasnt eating nuts at the time, I was getting any fat from EFAs(carlsons)
again, my point was, eating low fat isnt bad for you, it's shown in many places to have good outcomes,
it defintely did not hurt my testotrone level, which men tend to think will happen if you eat low fat.

why would I make more testostrone in a caloric deficit?
I don't agree what what I ate was irrelevant,
I've post before about the man who lost bodyfat and improved his body's lipids, BUT he ate mostly junk food, BUT he kept it at a certain caloric number

http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/11/08/tw ... professor/but is that how people should eat for ideal health? just count calories?
looking around this forum and you'll see that the answer is obviously NO
get enough AA. and lysine and other nutrients, iodine, B-vitamins, Selenium will make you a healthier person
I am going further than that in 2 ways
1 low fat dietbut now It seems Maybe, eating a low fat diet, which has benefits
http://www.peaktestosterone.com/Ornish_Diet.aspxDean ornish(a low fat guru himself) show a study that
low fat might be useful in increasing telomerase activity
http://ornishspectrum.com/wp-content/up ... hanges.pdf2 fasting(also useful in increasing telomerase activity)
I don't really know what works, I am posting science that looks likes like it backs up what I say
as the study from DeanOrinish ALSO had his study involving
low-fat(10-15%)
meditation
weight loss
exercise
I see a lot of activity about increasing teleomores, so I mentioned this in a few places
viewtopic.php?f=26&t=11675&p=39031#p39031If you don't like my posts, the way I write, I can't do much about that I can answer direct questions to try to explain things you don't understand as best I can.
Or if the sheer amount of info in each post overwhelms you, take a break from reading or find one fact that you want to question, and ask a question about it.
no, one is telling you to try to read and comprehend the whole post at once.
I hope you understand.., but above all just be a good person and treat me how you'd like to be treated, dont throw your internet insults at me, I'm on your side to get us all as healthy as we can be,
it's not that hard to just be nice, eh?`
