Will reishi, turmeric, or curcumin tank my testosterone?

Q&A Files #298 Early Release Podcast

Short answer: Probably not. Animal studies showing a difference use huge doses in an unrealistic context. Human studies show they don’t at doses used. Human effect on PSA is vulnerable to regression to the mean and thoroughly unconvincing.

This is a clip from a live Q&A session open to CMJ Masterpass members. In addition to this episode, you can access five other free samples from this batch here:

Questions on Vitamin D, Fatty Liver, HbA1c vs CGM, Turmeric and Testosterone, Fasting, and B6 Markers
