Saliva Hormone Testing
 Evaluate a pooled saliva sample from multiple
collections
 Possible to get reliable assessment
of hormone concentration in
diurnal fluctuations
 Hormone assessment from
saliva allows
 Specific direct determination of
biologically active of “free”
fraction of hormone
Copyrights:OIBConsultants, Inc.
13
Saliva
 Saliva is NOT an appropriate matrix for
conjugated steroids
 Estrone-sulfate
 DHEA-sulfate
 Affected by flow rate
 Saliva also not appropriate for thyroid
 Presence of T4 in saliva results from blood
contamination
Copyrights:OIBConsultants, Inc.
14
Physiology of Salivary Glands
More than one mechanism exists for blood
components to pass the membrane barrier into
the salivary ducts
 Passing through the space between the acinar
cells (tight junctions)
 Only molecules with a relatively small molecular
weight (MW<1900) may pass through




MW Hormones ca. 300
MW albumin = 66,000
MW CBG = 46,500
MW SHBG = 115,000

Saliva Hormone Blood Contaminations
As blood contains about 50 times higher concentrations
of hormones, special attention should be given to avoid
blood contamination

The Saliva Collection Container
 Saliva hormones are small non-polar molecules which tend
to stick to plastic material
 Polyethylene is highly absorptive for Progesterone
 Highly non-polar
 Glass seems to be completely absorption-free
 Stoppers made of polyethylene are highly absorptive
 The best plastic material seems to be Ultra-Pure
Polypropylene, not recycled plastic

Studies on DHEA & Cancer
 Dr. McCormick & Dr. Rao (doctors/authors)
 1999 – Dr. McCormick & Dr. Rao found that rats
supplemented with DHEA & exposed to cancer seemed to
be resistant to further developing other forms of cancer
“DHEA inhibits prostate cancer induction both when
chronic administration is begun prior to carcinogen
exposure, and when administration is delayed until preneoplastic prostate lesions are present.”

What’s interesting about all these reported increases in mood &
energy is that they were not what the tests were conducted to prove
 13 men & 17 women were administered
50 mg of DHEA for 6 months
 Among other benefits, the men & women also reported
a “physical & psychological well-being”
 Men – 67%
 Women – 84%
 Attributed boost of activity & frame of mind to the
DHEA-influenced rise of serum IGF-1 levels & its
increased bioavailability to target tissues

UCSD School of Medicine,

Study by Dr.’s Samuel Yen, Khorram & Vu
 Immunological effects measured in 65-year-old
men supplemented with 50 mg per day of DHEA
 Yen observed an IGF-1 rise of 18%
 Natural killer cells (the cells that fight cancer) rose by
1/3
 Ability to ward off cancerous cells increased by 30 – 75%
 T-cells & B-cells (combat bacteria)
 Responded more quickly to foreign attackers
 IL-2 (cytokine imperative to immune cell
communication)
 Rose significantly

Estrone (E1)
 Predominant estrogen post-menopausally
 Aromatized from androstenedione in peripheral
tissues; also derived from E2
 Reproduction, sexual development, bone health
 Positive correlations with insulin & BMI
Copyrights:OIBConsultants, Inc.

development, bone health, arterial blood flow,
neuroprotection

Metabolism of Thyroid Hormone
 Requires about 50 mg of iodine per year
 About 70% of the T4 secreted daily is
deiodinated to yield T3+rT3 in equal parts
 80% of circulating T3 comes from peripheral
monodeionization of T4 at the thyrosyl ring
 Occurs in the liver, kidney & other tissues
 Circulating rT3 is made the same way

Dr. Broda Barnes’ Recommendations
 Thyroid must be taken on an empty stomach at least 20 – 30
minutes before meals
 Add ½ grain each month & continue to increase each month
as needed
 Our bodies usually require at least one month to respond to
the increase in dosage
 Stop when patients feel well, experience any side effects, or
reach the dosage of 4 grains (occasionally 5 grains were
used)

Thyroid Intolerance

147
Citrulline & Arginine
Help Improve Sex Life
 Arginine is often used by men to achieve long
lasting & harder erections
 Citrulline & arginine can be combined for
enhanced sexual pleasure & vascular health
 Citrulline is a precursor for arginine
 Arginine is a precursor for nitric oxide

Importance of Nitric-Oxide
to Healthy Blood Flow
 Helps prevent blood
aggregation or platelets from
becoming sticky
 When platelets are not sticky,
they can move single file
through capillaries
 When vascular system is
working efficiently – less
chance blood clot will form
 Less chance of having a heart
attack or stroke
