The key is:

1. Having the right mommy and daddy

2. Healthy lifestyle

3. Being a woman

Hey! Now we have another reason for genetic men to become women(-:

All joking aside(the random joke above caused me to want to look this up), there are extreme health risk and life shortning consequences to becoming a transgender woman (and man) NOT benefits!

Mortality Rate Much Higher for Transgender People

https://www.hcplive.com/view/mortality-rate-higher-transgender-people


Transgender individuals often seek a variety of medical therapies that bring the physical changes that can closely match their gender identities, including gender-affirming hormone therapy and surgery.

For transgender men, gender-affirming hormone therapy generally involves testosterone treatment to promote the development of masculine features. For transgender women, treatment can include antiandrogens and oestrogens, which can induce feminine physical characteristics.

Mortality Rates

A total of 317 (10.8%) transgender women and 44 (2.7%) transgender men died during the duration of the study, which equated to an overall mortality rate of 628 deaths per 100,000 people per year.

In comparison to men in the general Dutch population, the mortality risk was nearly double among transgender women and was nearly triple in comparison to cis women (ratios of 1.8 and 2.8, respectively).

An analysis of the subgroups show transgender women were 2.6 times as likely to die of cardiovascular disease, 3.1 times as likely to die from lung cancer, 8.7 times as likely to die from infection, and 6.1 times as likely to die from non-natural causes as cis women.

The greatest risk for those suffering from cardiovascular disease was heart attacks, which were 3 times higher in transgender women than cis women.

Most likely the starkest difference was the mortality risk from HIV, which was 47.6 times higher for transgender women in comparison to cis women.

Finally, the suicide rate was 6.8 times higher for transgender women.

I have been having  the compassionate and understanding viewpoint on this issue but I never thought this much about making this decision being likely to take off many years from a person's life. However, we might need to compare these stats above to people that decided to NOT switch genders that wanted to. Such a study with objectively will never exist.

I will guess that if you were born with a man's body and a womans mind, you can try to trick your genetics by forcing your body to take hormones that its DNA is not programmed to metabolize and use for the best health outcomes.  Your body does best when you give it what it was designed to do best on.

But the mind is a much different thing.

Gender-Affirming Hormone Use in Transgender Individuals: Impact on Behavioral Health and Cognition

Conclusions

Overall, this review demonstrates that GAHT generally has positive effects at multiple levels on mood and behavioral health of transgender and gender dysphoric individuals.

This suggests that a man that becomes a woman or vice versa will live a shorter, less healthy  life with higher risks, to especially heart problems. However, that person is more likely to have a more fulfilling life.

I can't help but remind people of this below. So use research in many fields like this with skeptism.

I've mentioned this before but using a steam sauna, whether at the gym or much more practically at home is a tremendous positive contributor to many elements of good health.

Association between niacin and mortality among patients with cancer in the NHANES retrospective cohort - BMC Cancer
Background The vitamin niacin is used as a lipid-regulating supplement, but it is unknown whether niacin has a positive influence on cancer prognosis. In this study, we examine the relationship between niacin intake and mortality among patients with cancer. Methods Our study utilized all available continuous data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2014. Multivariable Cox regression models were applied in order to investigate dietary niacin intake’s association with mortality. We compared the survival probability between groups of low and high niacin intake by plotting Kaplan-Meier curves. An analysis of subgroups was used to investigate heterogeneity sources. Results A total of 3504 participants were included in the cohort, with 1054 deaths. One thousand eight hundred forty-seven participants (52.3%) were female, 2548 participants (73.4%) were white, and the mean age (SE) was 65.38 years (0.32). According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, niacin int

This article below is an example of  misleading  "junk science".  Almost every study out there with niacin shows the complete opposite of what they suggest in the title and can't back up. No telling what motivated them but most people reading this using a Google search without understanding  the well documented science on niacin studies that are considering taking it.........will be more hesitant to take niacin..........more likely to take a Statin drug.


There's loads of DISinformation on the internet, especially about science.
