People wonder why your poor old author constantly criticizes medical doctors. Here is just one of countless examples. Some idiot doctor named Uzzi Reiss wrote an awful book Natural Hormone Balance. The facts and fantasies are so intertwined you cannot possibly separate them.

He rightfully points out that women often need natural testosterone replacement as they age. Like that’s new. The proper way to do this is to test the woman’s FREE testosterone level only in the morning, not the total or bound. He wants to add the total testosterone and doesn’t care what time of day it is. He also wants to diagnose their level by how much body hair they have, and how muscular they are. I didn’t make that up! He said that. Read it yourself. This guy is a nutcase. The proper dose for a woman who needs testosterone is only about 150 mcg in her blood, and up to 300 mcg for those who are really deficient. The right way to to this is with a cream or gel and use a quarter gram (one fourth of a quarter teaspoon which is one sixteenth of a teaspoon) of a weak 0.3% cream or gel. Or she can use 200 mcg (150 mcg actual testosterone) of testosterone enanthate sublingually in vegetable oil. He is so stupid he wants a woman to use a full gram of 0.2 to 0.4% cream. This would put 3 mg on the skin and 600 mcg in her blood. Worse, he wants her to double the dose every four weeks! He says she can use 2 mg sublingually and up to 16 mg sublingually. That is 80 times or 8,000% of what she needs! This is prima facie insanity folks. Men can’t use that much. He also says women can take 2.5 mg capsules!!! Testosterone doesn’t absorb orally, and you never take it by mouth. He also tells women to take estradiol, estrone, and estriol capsules. You never take testosterone, estradiol estrone, estriol, GH or progesterone orally. Never.

He says “There is no correlation between testosterone blood levels and sexual performance in a woman.” If you’ll read my book Testosterone Is Your Friend you’ll see women are very sexually influenced by testosterone levels. Women can often dramatically improve their love life with youthful testosterone (and DHEA) levels.

He talks about pregnenolone, but is too stupid to understand men need twice as much as women. The ballpark dose for men over 40 is 50 mg, and only 25 mg for women. He says everyone should take 50 to 100 mg. Clueless, this guy is clueless.

Uzzi is equally uninformed when it comes to growth hormone.  He tells you to take 2-6 IU a week, when you need 1 IU a day. 2 IU a week would be useless. He says not to use GH if you have cancer or your adrenal glands are tired. He made that up. He tells you to take amino acids like arginine, ornithine, glutamine, lycine and gylcine to raise your GH. That’s asinine. He tells you to measure Your GH with IGF-1 which is ridiculous. He tells you to see a medical doctor and end up paying at least $500 to $1,000 a month for GH. You can get your own Jintropin or Hygertropin For $120 a month, but he doesn’t know that. He never admits how much it will cost.

He knows little about thyroid hormones and testing free T3 and T4. There are only a few sentences about this in the entire book.

Folks, this guy is a moron and his book is asinine. This kind of thing gives natural health a bad name. We could go on, but why bother?
