In men, too much estrogen builds up in three common situations: obesity, excessive alcohol use, and smoking. This occurs because chronic inflammation, which is associated with these conditions, increases the conversion of testosterone into estrogen. Since estrogen causes the liver to produce more of the carrier protein for testosterone, which is known as sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), less free, or unbound, testosterone results. Low levels of free testosterone and higher estrogen levels in men are associated with excess body fat, reduced sex drive, depression, and erectile dysfunction. 

Since only free testosterone easily crosses into the brain, muscles and fat cells, much of the desirable action of testosterone has to do with the free portion. Free testosterone represents only a tiny amount of the total testosterone, equal to only 2 percent of the total in men and even less in women. 

DIM is able to support free testosterone without changing total testosterone levels; it does not raise testosterone levels but supports its activity through its effects on estrogen metabolism. This helps to maintain a healthy level of free, active testosterone.

so, for me, that means kale is fine, too, especially if i can get my testicles removed, quickly; it may "liberate" free testosterone, but (1) i don't hardly have any of that, due to the t-blockers, (2) the concentration i'm getting from the food is very, very low and (3) it won't undo the effects of the t-blockers or stimulate more testosterone production.

good.

in the end, i'll probably pick one or the other depending on availability and price.

right now, i gotta eat to get around the idiot upstairs. and, i may pass out, again. fuck.
