Testosterone’s Role in Injury and Recovery
Channel: BioBalance Healthcast

Most people have an awareness of the role testosterone plays in making us strong active and sexually aware. What many do not know is how testosterone production in the body declines as we age.  There are questions that begin to arise: Why does this happen? How does it impact our sense of ourselves and others as sexually attractive potential mates? Is there more of an impact than that loss of being a potential mate?

In this week’s BioBalance Healthcast, Brett and I discuss how we lose our testosterone production as we age and focus on many of the changes making us look more frail and feel less active. We primarily take a look at the role of loss of testosterone and its effect on injuries and rates of recovery, success of surgery and how muscle mass allows us to remain independent and healthy we sustain and on the role of replacing testosterone when we have surgeries and suffer illnesses of old age.
