Cis(gender)- is defined as the sex you are assigned at birth, while transgender is an umbrella term for people whose gender identity differs from the sex they are assigned at birth.<\/p>\n
Recently I have been working on various keynote presentations on the paradigm shift for gerontology, specifically on anti-aging. \u00a0To ‘add life to your years and years to your life’, \u00a0it seems gerontologists have shifted from pursing life extension strategies to anti-aging.<\/strong><\/p>\n In that regard I have searched for more information on the biological markers for aging. One of the tests I have found relates to the significant loss of hormone levels, specifically DHEA.\u00a0<\/strong>According to Roy Walford in his textbook (The 120 year diet ) table 2.2 in males DHEA<\/strong><\/em> \u00a0declines from 3400 ng.\/ml of plasma in the 20-30 age group to less than 900 ng\/ml by age 60. Corresponding figures for females are 2200 to 800 .<\/p>\n The Fifth edition (2013) of Disease Prevention and Treatment \u00a0published by Life Extension Foundation on p. 608<\/strong> details how DHEA<\/strong>\u00a0is converted to\u00a0Androstenediol<\/strong> an intermediate hormone which can then produce either and\/or \u00a0both<\/strong>– the male and female sex hormones, viz. testosterone and the 3 major estrogens (estrone,, estradiol and estriol). \u00a0The hormonal cascade also shows that the enzyme aromatase<\/strong> can convert testosterone to the female sex hormones.<\/p>\n I wonder if an imbalance of this hormonal cascade can produce the increase in transgenders we are witnessing. Maybe by altering these conversions we could preventive the transgender phenomenon.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cis(gender)- is defined as the sex you are assigned at birth, while transgender is an umbrella term for people whose gender identity differs from the sex they are assigned at birth.
