WHY IS TESTOSTERONE IMPORTANT?
 Testosterone is definitely more than a sex hormone. Testosterone receptor sites are located in cells throughoutthe body, including the heart and brain.
Testosterone helps with the following:
- Maintains muscle mass
- Aides in formation and stabilization of bone density
- Improves oxygen uptake throughout the body
- Regulates blood sugar control
- Maintains cholesterol
- Regulates immune system
- Improves oxygen uptake
- Improves energy
- Aides in neurological functioning, including memory and concentration
- Regulates mood and helps prevent depression
- Provides “zest for life” feelings
- Improves sexual response, including drive, performance, and sexual satisfaction
- Helps maintain heart health through stabilization of the heart muscle where many of the testosterone receptors are located
Many studies suggest that maintaining youthful levels of free testosterone can enable the aging man to restore strength, stamina, mental functioning, heart health, and sexuality, and to alleviate depression, avoid excess fat accumulation, and improve general mood and zest for life.
