There is hormonal warfare out there! The changes I have seen over two decades of practice in the hormonal health of people has been scary. That is why this podcast was so important with endocrinologist Dr Sundeep Ruder is so needed.

Dr Sundeep Ruder is a clinical endocrinologist practicing from Life Fourways Hospital in Johannesburg, South Africa and medical professor at Wits University.

He is a faculty member of Synapse, an international organization exploring the mind-body connection and its connection to endocrinology. He also makes media appearances and publishes on his website Turiya Endocrinology.

Join us as we explore:

The hormonal landscape – what is hormonal optimization? Why are men’s testosterone plummeting? What is happening to women and xenoestrogens? What is precocious puberty? Is the pill overprescribed?

Real life stories about what the typical patient suffering from hormonal imbalance or deficiency, their symptoms and what Dr Ruder’s simple, objective and holistic approach involves.

Testosterone optimization –What it is? Why it’s so important? The dangers of starting too young in life? What’s TRT? Are there other routes?

Human growth hormone- what it is, why it’s so big in the longevity world but why Dr Ruder believes this route must be taken with caution.

Why Dr Ruder asks people about their “inspiration and initiative versus incentives”?

The difference between mass, visceral fat, adipose tissue and waist circumference and why 4 cm can make all the difference.
