What we do know is that testosterone is an androgen, as the family of male sex hormones are called, and these hormones, in turn, are made up of the fat known as steroids. Both men and women produce testosterone in their bodies, men in the testes and adrenal glands, women in the adrenal glands and ovaries. But men produce much more--the average healthy male has 260 to 1,000 nanograms of testosterone per deciliter of blood plasma. For women the range is 15 to 70. But because men differ on how effectively their bodies process the substance--for instance...
...meaning steroids can reduce sperm production, shrink the testicles and cause impotence. Tribulus, Patrick says, can help restart natural testosterone production. The teen hands over $12 for 100 Tribulus Fuel pills. (Every day, Muscle Mania does $4,000 in sales of such products, with protein supplements and so-called fat burners leading the pack...
...armor, and the tinkle made the other actors giggle!"). Students without speaking parts play music that would make old Will squirm: Aegeon's plea for a stay of execution is accompanied by the Beatles' Help!, and the pursuit of a portly servant is enlivened with Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls. An overhead video shows the screaming crowds in Godzilla as the actors chase Antipholus around the classroom. "Shakespeare's fun," Esquith says. "And they learn tons of vocabulary...
...Medicine, it looks as if our national obsession with all things fiber may not be yielding the results we'd hoped for, particularly in the realm of colorectal cancer. The Journal report describes two multiyear studies in which half the 3,000 subjects suffered through an eternity of low-fat, high-fiber diets, while the other half went happily on their way eating their usual (read: low-fiber) foods. In a development that more than one researcher calls "shocking," members of the high-fiber group were no slower than their ostensibly less healthy counterparts to develop colorectal polyps - often...
This does not constitute a green light, of course, to rush right out and gobble down giant chunks of cheese. As researchers are quick to point out, there are still significant health benefits to eating a low-fat, high fiber diet, including reduced risk of diabetes and heart disease. And there are still plenty of scientists and doctors who would like to see a decade-long study on high-fiber diets before calling them off for patients at risk for colorectal cancer. But preliminary as it may be, the message from the Journal article serves to validate the concerns...
