Find a hormone doctor to track my health progress with supplements like Tonga Ali, etc?
How do I find a urologist or another doctor locally who can help me track the effect of supplements on my hormones and health? When I search for male hormone doctor, I get a bunch of doctors or businesses that want to sell me hormone replacement and I only want hormone optimization.
Strength Training tips for those with JHS/HSD plus a congenitally narrow cervical spinal canal plus mild disc bulges?
Strength Training is critical, per your episode with Dr. Peter Attia. For patients with neurologist diagnosed Joint Hyper-mobility Syndrome (Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder), plus a congenitally narrow spinal canal, plus a mild C5, C6, C7 disc bulge, how can one optimize strength training? Individually those three conditions don't seem debilitating. But in combination...one has to be very careful. I get told to lower weights and increase reps. Fair. But I'm used to always lifting to failure, and am scared that doing so with these conditions will re-aggravate a recurring pinched cervical nerve. Hoping the disc bulge fixes itself over time. So....overall, what are your Tips & Tricks to best do strength training while preserving the cervical spine to avoid both future surgery and reliance on pain killer drugs in the long-term? Physical Therapy seems to be less useful for cervical spine than lumbar spine. And sufficient exertion in strength training ends up straining all muscles. My research today shows isometric exercises, and adherence to proper form while still gradually increasing weights can still provide all the possible benefits of longevity. Any supplement advice in addition to exercise tips would be helpful. thanks
Milk and Dairy, good bad and ugly?
Hello Andrew, I would love to hear what kind of research you have viewed to do with dairy specifically on milk another dairy products, pasteurize and non-pasteurized the health benefits health risks etc. I stopped consuming dairy for about eight years, and although it was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, one doctor advised me to start consuming dairy again which I did, and less than a year later my hyperthyroidism has gone away.
Caffeine and Supplements
I’ve heard that one should wait 2 hours after ingesting caffeine before taking any supplements. The premise is that it would result in malabsorption. Is this correct, and does it apply to all supplements such as Omega 3, vitamin D, C, B’s, E, Copper, Magnesium, Lutein and Zéaxanthine?
How can one exert control over their libido?
There have been various periods of my life in which it would have been beneficial to have more libido and sex drive (starting a new relationship as an example). Conversely, there are periods of my life where decreased libido would be beneficial (exiting a relationship and taking time for self work as an example). What are protocols one can use to deliberately shift the needle on their arousal one way or the other?
