Optimization or Else: Peptides, Fake Hormones & Treating Women w/Dr. William Parker

The sick care system is so broken that men who need testosterone are living in fear and shame instead of getting the help they need. How do we fix this problem? How can we debunk the myth of over-the-counter testosterone boosters? On this episode, I talk to Dr. William Parker on optimization protocols for both men and women. There are peptides out there that offer amazing healing and restorative qualities. -Jay Campbell

Three Takeaways

• The disconnect with testosterone for most men is that you can’t get it reimbursed through insurance, and you have to go out of pocket. The best doctors are cash-only.
• Consider HCG only if you’re having ejaculate issues.
• Women who don’t have naturally high testosterone are much more imbalanced before and during menopause.

At the start of the show, Dr. William Parker shared how his work as a doctor bred an unhealthy lifestyle and how he turned it around. We discussed education, the use of HCG and who should and shouldn’t use it. We also discussed why so many men struggling with low testosterone live in fear and shame.

We also covered:

• Why over-the-counter testosterone boosters are a myth
• The importance of avoiding fake hormones and medication
• The use of peptides

When we get to a certain age, it’s optimize or else. The alternative to optimization is multiple pills, feeling terrible, depression and disease. Testosterone is vital to being a man, and it’s shameful that optimization is out of reach for so many men that need it. What people need to understand is that there’s no boilerplate answer; you have to work with a physician who is experienced with managing men’s endocrine systems, and you have avoid the black market and fake stuff. The correct optimization protocol will have you feeling happier and more energized. It will improve your sleep and give you long-term good health.
