#180 – AMA #28: All things testosterone and testosterone replacement therapy
“There were countless other studies to look at, but they all basically point in the same direction, which is testosterone replacement therapy improves lean mass, reduces fat mass, improves strength.” —Peter Attia
#124 – AMA #15: Real-world case studies—metabolic dysregulation, low testosterone, menopause, and more
As a follow up to AMA #14 where Peter explained his framework for analyzing labs, this “Ask Me Anything” (AMA)…
#116 – AMA with Dom D’Agostino, Ph.D., Part I of II: Ketogenic diet, exogenous ketones, and exercise
“If you restore insulin sensitivity, you’re better able to access and burn fat.” — Dom D’Agostino
#84 – AMA #10: Low testosterone, hypothyroidism, building muscle (and preserving it while fasting)
“Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer.” —Arnold Schwarzenegger
#80 – Celebrity AMA with Apolo Ohno and Sasha Cohen: Fasting, rapamycin, performance vs. longevity, and more
“I am obsessed with knowing stuff. There’s just no denying it.” — Peter Attia
#76 – Kyle Kingsbury: Finding meaning, depression, and psychedelics
“[Ayahuasca] shifted more things in me and how I perceived the world than anything else.” — Kyle Kingsbury
Can you preserve lean body mass during “semi-starvation?”
All of this is very interesting, but what I find much more interesting in this study is that the placebo group did not lose any substantive LBM, while losing about the same amount of fat (10 lb) as the testosterone group, despite the severe CR/energy-deficit.
#48 – Matthew Walker, Ph.D., on sleep – Part II of III: Heart disease, cancer, sexual function, and the causes of sleep disruption (and tips to correct it)
“If there is one central, common pathway through which we can understand almost all aspects of the deleterious impact of insufficient sleep, it is…an excessive leaning on the fight or flight branch of the nervous system.” — Matthew Walker
#45 – AMA #4: sleep, jet lag protocol, autophagy, metformin, and more
“Every day in the human body, some 10 billion cells die and are replaced by new cells.” —Nick Lane
#39 – Ted Schaeffer, M.D., Ph.D.: How to catch, treat, and survive prostate cancer
“With our algorithm. . .you can reduce biopsies by about one third, reduce detection of low-grade cancer by about one third, and you actually don’t compromise the detection of higher grade disease. . .we have great tools to offer people very sophisticated screening for their prostate cancer.” —Ted Schaeffer
