SHR # 2451 :: RLRx: New Study Looks At The Pathways Testosterone Protects Against Cardiovascular Disease - Ronnie Milo - In light of new guidelines suggested by the American College of Physicians released on Monday, older men should not be prescribed testosterone except to remedy sexual dysfunction. Are they completely wrong? A recent study in the Journal of Cardiovascular Translational Research looked at Testosterone levels and the association with the main risks for CVD, namely metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity, atherosclerosis, dyslipidaemia and hypertension. Is the new guidelines putting more men at risk?

SHR # 2448 :: Metformin's False Status as a Wonder-drug for Longevity and Physique Goals PLUS MORE :: Jared Boynton and Taeian Clark - Metformin is promised to make already healthy people to live longer, leaner and healthier. The drug has been studied in humans since 1950, but its popularity as an anti-aging drug is very recent. And its not truly supported by the literature. All of its purported anti-aging effects in otherwise healthy people is all basically extrapolated. There are no long term studies that prove otherwise healthy people who took the drug lived longer than the control that didn't. People who believe its value fro anti-aging will fight you if you disagree with them!

SHR # 2447 :: BEST OF: Unilateral Leg Training For Greater Gains And Strength PLUS Study Shows Exercise Reduces Men's Risk Of Dementia And Chronic Disease :: - Guest: Bret Contreras - Prof. Peter Elwood - It can be said that we live life on one leg at a time. So why don't more people do unilateral leg training? What can unilateral leg training do for you if you incorporate it into your current training? And which exercises lend themselves to the best outcomes? This and much more are discussed by Contreras. PLUS Prof. Elwood is lead author of a study that looked at the effects and outcomes of a large cohort over 30 years and discovered that exercise protects against chronic disease. What was also surprising (maybe not to this audience) was that it protected against cognitive decline as well. PLUS Carl is calling all Super Human's to download the new Smartphone App

SHR # 2446 :: BEST OF: Hormonal Contraceptive And Multiple Sclerosis Susceptibility PLUS Effects Of HRT On Cerebral Function In Postmenopausal Women At Risk Of Dementia PLUS Genetic Dysbiosis: The Role Of Microbial Insults In Chronic Inflammation - Guest: Dr. Annette Langer-Gould - Dr. Natalie Rasgon - Dr. Luigi Nibali - This show originally aired in April of 2014. Multiple Sclerosis is on the rise in women. Dr. Langer-Gould's group looked at the linkage between hormonal contraceptives and the prevalence of Multiple Sclerosis. PLUS Dr. Rasgon's group looked at brain function, metabolism and cognition in a group of postmenopausal women who are genetically predisposed to dementia. They compared those who are currently on HRT and those who were on and stopped. They also corrected for those using beta-estradiol, beta-estradiol and progesterone combined and compared to those using Conjugated Equine Estrogen as well as synthetic estrogen and progestins. The results was astounding and explains why the Women's Health Initiative study was a complete failure and ultimately hurt a lot of women. PLUS Many of us are aware of the importance of the microbiome in our body. But what if you can't influence it through the introduction of beneficial microbes? What if your genetics predispose you to specific phyla of microbes and not others. And THIS is the real "genetic predisposition" to developing diseases like Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Cancer and more. Dr. Nibali's group may have discovered that its your genes that allow your body to adopt some microbes while not others.

SHR # 2445 :: RLRx: Estrogen and Soft Tissue - Ronnie Milo - A recent study looked at the link between estrogen and tendon and ligament metabolism and function. They showed some linkage between estrogen's effects on collagen, stiffness, healing and failure loads.

SHR # 2444 :: Anabolic Steroids and Psychosis - Dr. George Touliatos, MD - A recent paper brought back the discussion about the role of anabolic steroids and changes in behavior.
