I'm glad to see you're taking a very methodical approach to this. I hope you don't take anything I say, or anybody else on these boards, as gospel. Use good judgement. I mentioned Fina, which is NOT liver harsh, because at least part of the gains are due to the lowering of cortisol levels...

Just an added comment... Molecular weight is a critical factor, but there are several other variables involved in transdermals. For example, I had mentioned log(p) above without any detail. This is a number that represents the lipophilic/hydrophilic properties of the molecule. Ideally a...
