their bodies. Don’t get testosterone online or from pharmacies overseas.
For men, a normal testosterone level ranges from 300 to 826 ng/mL. Most
testosterone is bound to a protein called serum hormone binding globulin
(SHGB) and can’t be readily used. A small percentage of testosterone is free and
does all the actions. Each person’s body chemistry is different, so a person
whose testosterone level is at the low end of the range may still have enough free
testosterone to function and feel good. On the other hand, someone whose
testosterone is at the high end of the range may still have a slight deficiency with
respect to his normal level because most of his testosterone is attached to the
protein.
The Perfect 10 Diet will help you support this important hormone. But what
do you do when your testosterone level starts to decline? What do you do if you
have a chronic illness, such as diabetes, or you’re overweight? This negatively
affects this hormone. And what about when you get older and your testosterone
level naturally starts to decline? The Perfect 10 Diet may not be enough to fix
this problem.
Male andropause—and, for that matter, the whole topic of male aging— rarely
gets mentioned in doctors’ offices because it’s assumed that many of the
symptoms of andropause are just part of getting older. But men, just like women,
experience sharp hormonal drop-offs, and they have to take andropause
seriously.
As we get older, the testicular cells that make testosterone die and produce
less. There is also an increase in the protein (SHBG) that holds testosterone, so
less of the hormone becomes available. Men usually begin to notice these
hormonal changes around age 40. Between the ages of 25 and 50, a man’s
testosterone level decreases by approximately 50 percent. As the level falls, the
result is a decreased libido and erection problems. Hello, Viagra!
After that point, low levels can cause high blood pressure and heart disease.
As the process continues, men begin to experience benign enlargement of the
prostate, and they start to wake up several times during the night to urinate.
Lower testosterone levels can even mean a higher risk of mortality, so you have
to supplement this important hormone as you age. It is the difference between
life and death.
Equal rights for men now. Suzanne Somers shed the light on the benefits of
natural bioidentical hormone replacement for women in menopause; I’d like to
do the same for my fellow men. I hope this book sheds light on this important
topic for doctors and the public. Testosterone replacement therapy, which is also
known as TRT, has a potent anti-aging effect, and it has shown tremendous
benefits. A good age to start testosterone replacement therapy is in your 40s.
