More stuff on men

There are a host of complaints that men have that can be indicative of hormone deficiencies or Andropause. These complaints often include weight gain, and a lack of stamina.

For many men aged 35 to 50 the major concern is loss of lean body mass (muscle) around the middle and decreased libido. On occasion there may also be depression, sleep disturbances and loss of vitality.

I think the biggest surprise is how early men begin to manifest signs of hormone imbalance and deficiency. One often associates women with menopause starting in the late 40's not realizing that men can start a decade earlier.

The difference with men is that the changes are not as dramatic as Menopause and so men tolerate them better and gradually get acclimatized to feeling less than optimal.

What to do?
Well, first figure out your baseline in your early 30's.
Did you know that the average testosterone level in men is much lower than it was 50 years ago? Scientist's dont know why this is the case. It may have something to do with the food supply, fertilizers, hormones in meat etc.

Secondly , get a saliva test to check both your hormone levels in the tissues and the balance between them, this would include your sex hormones as well as the adrenal and thyroid hormones.

With this information your Growth Hormone level and the blood chemistry profiles you will be able to evaluate your risk factors for morbidity and mortality.

Many studies have shown a direct link between a man's testosterone level and his risk of early death from all causes including cancers.
We always knew testosterone was important for a man's well being and now we have proof!

Keep your hormone levels optimal, one of the best ways to:

Add years to your life and life to your years!

(Come in and get your levels checked, it could save your life)
