Here's some hard copy from that press conference:
Landis: Stigma 'may never go away'
from the article:
Under World Anti-Doping Agency regulations, a ratio of testosterone to epitestosterone greater than 4:1 is considered a positive result and subject to investigation. The threshold was recently lowered from 6:1. The most likely natural ratio of testosterone to epitestosterone in humans is 1:1.

Reading through all sorts of stuff this morning it would be mighty difficult for anyone but a woman eating birthcontrol pills to satisfy the munchies, or a very old man to get down to a ratio of 1:1.
The ratio changes during your life, but just about 6:1 is normal for a man at age 35 and a woman at 31.
