[00:00:00] Prepare to experience the strongest radio allowable by law will be revealed ministers about where excuses never apply his superhuman radio with your host Carl the North.
Hey, hey, welcome back to another episode of super human radio. We have a really important topic today. Some of you may not think it's important, but I can tell you that all the emails and messages I get the one that I get most often is about hormone replacement therapy. Where can people get.
Because there are still a lot of doctors out there. I would say the majority of them who still don't understand the need for HRT or they're just afraid because they don't understand how to prescribe. They don't want to get themselves in trouble and they stay away from it. We're going to talk about a simple way for you to find a way to work with a doctor who can help you.
if you've been told by your. Current position. Hey, you know, low testosterone is okay or you don't need HRT because you're a woman just get used [00:01:00] to the hot flushes or , your physician just says, no, I don't do that and learn to live with it. We're going to talk about an answer for you today before I get started.

, absolutely free because dr. Jeff Golini believes that no one should buy anything until they've tried it and , he lived by his motto. So check it out. I want to introduce to the show Adam Lamb. How you doing at him? I'm doing good call, , very happy to be here and talk with you today. So before we get into the discussion at hand, How did you find your way into starting ReNew Life RX?
Yes. It's a great question. So a little over 10 [00:02:00] years ago. I was , amateur bodybuilder or national level bodybuilder. I competed. I was a MuscleTech athlete. , I don't through that process of a I'll say very competitive bodybuilder. and in my younger years my late 20s, what I realized is it's not sustainable.
You can't do that forever eventually early in my years. I did some program own stuff. I was 18 19, which just goofed men testosterone up early mid 20s. I had low testosterone and there's nothing really to do about it that doctors are willing to work on want to be a bodybuilder. I mean it decision to go that route.
And then after a while though being in the industry and I decide to stop bodybuilding and things like that and focus on other things in life, but what I noticed is that. Initial got me into it. I realized there's a large amount of people that are probably getting poor guidance. Meaning that the guidance is with the goal of being a bodybuilder.
Some people just maybe want to be healthy or maybe want to [00:03:00] be deficient and there wasn't a ton of Education out there or a lot of opportunity to find out about you know how to treat. Testosterone even some of my best friends were MDS and I would talk to him and they're like look man, I could probably put you on film but I don't know what else to do, you know, they didn't understand about , controlling estrogen and monitoring blood and also diving deeper into the hormones to see that even if the faster own tide, there's other things that can be low that could cause you to still have the symptoms.
Due to lack of absorption and things like that for the fostering your body being utilized which is and so going through that and you know over the past decade, working. I started the clinic to be a resource to kind of help bring clients in to partner them with doctors that would help work with them and eventually that kind of morphed to where we're at today where I have , about 20 doctors throughout the country, , oversee [00:04:00] and monitor our clients.
And I've kind of built the name and reputation in the industry through your trainers and coaches and folks in that area someone that is an expert in helping to manage the clients and really care. So we both the clinic on Health First and results second in that's really work for us to grow the clinic and take care of a lot of people and we fast-tracked the process.
Of helping without you know going just going to the doctor. Hope hoping you your doctor even knows anything about it. Maybe they won't even run the blood test when the blood tests come back. Maybe they tell you their normal range and through baby. Just kind of you know, they don't go through blood work and detail and a lot of times it's just not what the experts in, you know, most doctors are used to tricking treating sick people not treating people that are healthy, but want to attain kind of a high-functioning lifestyle.
100% what we focus on is, , and I kind of I speak [00:05:00] with folks and say I'm not the guy that's going to help you get off the couch and stop the six-pack of beer and I and the teacher twice a week and the Mountain Dew and all that stuff. But if you're the guy that's going to the junior pretty you just care, significantly but since things aren't adding up and girl men and women we work with but if you're that person were the fast track to get the blood work time get you looked at.
Have the doctor take a look at everything based on your goals your what kind of Lifestyle what the blood results kind of to and then put you on a program help you achieve that and then we keep you healthy throughout the process. I would say just about every single client. I see , the blood work comes in health.
I've had guys come to me five years ago that were like, Terrible, you know liver enzymes cholesterol high blood pressure five years later for healthier, they're fit and all their other health and obviously [00:06:00] hormone indicators and great spot as they got older just from paying attention to it and taken our advice and following our protocols and you know, what you just said is important.
I don't want to I don't want to gloss over this right. So there's there are clinics out there that , Really take a cookie cutter approach. I don't even think they run cbc's you know, they run they'll run a testosterone level on a guy and he could have low testosterone and they move right away.
They just say, okay, here's what you're gonna do. We're gonna do this much testosterone. I'm going to give you an aromatase inhibitor and I go wait a minute. Wait a minute. How do we even know this person's a higher aromatiser. How do you even know because there's really good research out there that shows.
That , if you give a guy an aromatase inhibitor when he doesn't need it, it actually blunts fat loss and muscle, , gains and so you really have to know but a lot of people want to [00:07:00] do that. They're like, oh yeah, here's what here's what you're going to get and that's it. Talk about that cookie cutter approach and why that's a big mistake for guys and gals.
Yeah, I think that they're in in the industry. There's some just formats right like if you were to go to the gym and say I want to work on my chest this probably cookie cutter chess program that someone could give you but at the end of the day some of those things might not work as well as the others right you might have to focus more on incline over flat and there's things from developing the chest with flies and you know, things like that and cable crossover all those kind of different things.
And I think that because of lack of education and also there's lack of process that in going through this myth is to see you know, we believe there should be a healthy testosterone to estrogen ratio and also higher oxygen levels in clients. Don't necessarily in men don't necessarily mean that there's an issue.
[00:08:00] We look at oxygen in estradiol because sometimes food. Different lifestyle things can lead to a little bit of higher estrogen. It's not next necessarily the limiting. It's just part of how their body holds on, right so everybody and obviously and obviously you have to weigh that against symptoms.
If you got a guy who is let's say producing I don't know, you know above 40, picograms of liter that estradiol is measured in. I think I think so. Yeah, and so, you know and guys will be like I have no symptoms. I have no gynecomastia. I don't have any symptoms then just leave them alone as opposed to go.
No, you got to take an aromatase inhibitor because that's how we do it. There's a, you know, estradiol is just the way early on. We looked at testosterone as exclusively a male hormone. And now we know it's really important for women to thanks to a lot of Education estradiol is the most important.
Yes what I see. Yes and estradiol is an important male hormone to with so for [00:09:00] instance, men develop Parkinson's disease. Like fivefold more often than women until women go through menopause and that's because estradiol protects the brain against neurological, , degradation and also like I said a second ago, , estradiol is anabolic.
We just have to look at cows. They give them tremble own acetate and appellate Forum, which is a non aromatize androgens. And then when they add estradiol benzoate, they gained 30 to 40% more muscle weight with the introduction of estradiol and then we talked about a study back in 2009 or 2010 on the show that showed that.
They took two different groups of men one. They gave teswtosterone and an AI and one they gave testosterone only and then they did then they did us a washout and flip them and what they discovered was that when these guys would take an aromatase Inhibitors unnecessarily they lost their muscle gains and they lost the ability to lose fat.
So estradiol is not a woman's. Hormone and we have to stop that nonsense because we're putting guys [00:10:00] a great Risk by artificially suppressing that would you agree with that statement? I agree. Yeah, I think that it's just a matter of proper care proper follow-up kind of our motto. The clinic is we want to know how you feel first and your blood work kind of helps us see beyond the story.
So I think a lot of clinics are very focused on. Where your numbers need to be but everybody's numbers are different. We have clients that they feel great when they're just all so that 700 we have clients that don't feel great. Unless they're in between that 12 to 1500, right but if their blood work shows.
They're healthy and they're not having side effects and they feel great. Everyone's different, you know any medication metabolizes in our bodies differently and people are you got a 250 pound healthy male you have a hundred fifty-pound healthy meal, you know, having the same dosing and things like that doesn't always work and I've actually seen it flips just based on how people metabolize medication in their system and things [00:11:00] like that our goal, but I said number one to keep you healthy, but if you feel great, Then we know that we're on the right track and where you feel great.
That's your spot. Right? Like call feels great with testosterone is here and this is here. And this is here. That's where we want to keep you not necessarily based on some cookie cutter got to have you here gotta be here. And we kind of believe less is more, you know, and especially in the women's cases women come to us and they're taking five different things.
But testosterone we find that low-dose testosterone cream and guess what everything else works out to regulate the pH goes down all of a sudden things. They don't need anything else, right? And so obviously cost effectively it makes sense. But just taking less stuff it is, , Safer healthier, you know just to get you a woman today 64 years old.
I just looked at her blood work this morning just came across to the doctor and her to stop signs at five [00:12:00] and that's why she doesn't feel good. You know what? I mean? It would get the testosterone up. The thyroid function will be better directed, you know and so forth. And so that's where we kind of start with some things.
Like you said, the less is more and then as we progress and we talk to our clients every two weeks. So from a follow-up standpoint, I think we do a pretty excellent job of that and then are scheduled blood work of when we have them get things done clients have been with us for four years. And you know, they're in The Sweet Spot, you know, we know exactly what to do.
We continue with the regular blood work and everything seems to be moving in the right direction, which is good cookie cutter approach. Is it best but I think it's just like anything, you know, there's a ton of diet coaches and trainers coaches that you know, they did a competition or they found their passion for health and fitness nine months ago and now they're an expert [00:13:00] and so I think there's a lot of that still even in the hormone replacement therapy that there's a place to start but through proper education and you know over the course of the decade.
Probably seen Styles in people's blood work. Right? So our expertise doesn't come from Siri forums or what. Does this the most what does that the most we've seen it, you know, we work with some of them in their early 20s or late 20s most men, won't work with until they're 30. I have clients that are 98 by always clients 98 years old and his doctor we worked directly with that said, He would be dead if he wasn't on the program because it's helped him.
He's on into the hospital you go to the hospital pneumonia 97 years old. Most people don't come out. He's come out because his body stronger because not crank in the way to do it all that stuff. He just wants it to the mocker and it's helped him, you know to to proper care. So there's all different benefits to [00:14:00] it in all different goals with different clients and we want to achieve those goals if you want to try to be Mr. Olympia
We’re probably not the clinic. I used to tell people out front, but if you wanted to have a healthy, you know optimized. Lifestyle that to help you get accomplished your goals and especially the effort you're putting in from the food and the training and stuff like that. But just not quite getting there your blood work shows the reason why you're not getting there.
We're going to hit home runs with you, you know, because that's what we do, you know, and. What you just said that I also don't want to gloss over is that if you go to the average doctor, he has no problem putting you on statin drugs anti-anxiety drugs antidepressant drugs blood pressure management, drugs glucose management drugs and all those drugs carry horrible side effects and you end up dying from something called polypharmacy, but when you get your hormone straightened out.
You don't need any of those drugs. And so [00:15:00] the reality is that while the medical Orthodoxy for whatever reason is slow to embrace HRT. HRT is a much more natural much more Progressive Way, to manage Health span. The effects are much. I mean, you know good most of my clients don't have primary care physicians.
They don't get sick, right? We took their blood. I mean that we look at their blood work a couple times a year. Everything's healthy. They don't have any issues if there is something that pops up that's not a real house. We tell them where to go. You know and then if they you know, there's something they get a cold or the flu, but I'll say it's funny most of the clients don't get sick because we help you know with proper hormones and there's other options that we had those things your immune system by eating healthy.
You're feeling good. You're resting better. Like all that stuff comes together if your hormones are low and your low activity you're less likely to be strict with some of the things you put [00:16:00] in your body food-wise and fluid wise. You're going to get sick more often, you know what I mean? Well, but also one of the one of the things that we've learned that I've learned over the past probably six years now is the fact that we now know that the microbiome and hormones in your body have a reciprocal relationship.
So I've done shows on oxytocin. And how it reverses the Aging of muscle. So older guys like me like I use five I use of oxytocin post-workout my doctor writes a prescription for it. But what we also don't realize is that there are microbes that that increase. In proliferation in the gut when oxytocin is high when oxytocin is low they kind of died off and they make room for bad microbes to so when you talk about immune system the research that's coming out now over the past five to six years is conclusive there are.
Gut microbes that proliferate when testosterone levels and estrogen levels are high and disappear. And there are microbes that when insulin is high, they [00:17:00] proliferate and they and they're the bad ones. They disappear when insulin is low. So what we're learning now is the reason that.
HRT is so effective at balancing the th1 th2 immune system responds is because there are beneficial effects on. Microbial diversity in the stomach like when you're young but then it changes as you get older. This is coming forth now, so there's no there's no reason to doubt that getting on HRT isn't going to help your immune system.
We know why it does now because it causes good microbes to thrive and bad microbes to die off and you don't need probiotics to do that. You just need to make sure your hormones are straightened out. Yeah, I mean firm believer in that as well just with you know, when you look at we're doing a lot of studies right now into the stem cell space and it's probably the next area.
We're going to roll into potentially the next 12 months, but in reading a lot of studies of that communicating with our doctors are focused on [00:18:00] themselves space that you understand that when you know when your hormones are high and it's theirs. Your body will fight off, you know, harmful things easier, right?
And that's all plays a big role with the hormones in a doctor talkingg to said, you know with the stem cells in conjunction with hormone replacement therapy meaning if you're kind of unhealthy person and you go and get stem cells done. The results are not as great as the doctor said it's like putting purify, you know, like well water into a rusty the difference is at work if you plant seeds in bad soil.
They don't grow and if they do grow the plants are very weak if you plant seed and fertile soil so stem cells. I mean, I know doctors that are working on stem cell therapies right now that they use growth factors and they make sure that people's hormones are straightened out because they even know that if this is going to succeed the human terrain must be fertile, we have to take off first commercial break the website is [00:19:00] well, it's http://RenewLifeRx.com
And you can also go to http://superhumanradio.net and click banner ads there. You can get started by reaching out and setting up a phone call and the beauty is it doesn't matter where you live except a couple steaks. Right as a couple states that you don't service right? We know we can work with no we can do all 50 states.
Okay, that's to get their blood. That's huge right there. So no matter where you are man or woman. If you've been met with discouraging remarks from your current position or even told that you just don't need HRT. You see yellow hormones because you're aging and that's okay, which is baffling to me.
I want to comment on that when we come back go to renew life RX will go to Superman radio and click. One of the banner ads set up a phone call and find out how life can change stay tuned. We'll be right back with more superhuman radio.
Welcome back, you know. Two things that I firmly believe in no matter what [00:20:00] genetic predispositions or epigenetic switches you've turned on or off in your life to two things that will benefit you no matter what you will fare better. The first is obviously vigorous resistance training and cardio as well being active.
The other one is hormone replacement therapy. I don't care what challenges you have. They will be better handled if you. Take the steps to normalize and optimize your hormones and I tell this story Adam since 2007. I've been on HRT since 2007. , I. Thought myself as a power lifter and , I kind of crashed my endocrine system around 2005.
I spent all 2006 trying to regain my testosterone levels with no success. I had terrible anxiety sleeplessness. I was getting fatter. I felt sick. I mean, I was just horrible mess. And then one day I made the decision I said to myself, you know, , it's not coming back. So I have to get on HRT and I got on a sensible dose of 250 milligrams of testosterone, , sippy innate a week and within the first two [00:21:00] weeks.
I felt better than I had ever felt in my life that I could remember except when I was in my 20s and the analogy that I developed at that moment in time. Was I would tell guys when they say to me, what do you think about Tessa imagine you live in a warehouse? And there are 100 really bright light bulbs that light up the entire warehouse and every year just one goes out.
So the transition from year to year is really a noticeable and then you're 40 years old and 40 of these lights have gone out. And one afternoon somebody comes in and replaces all 40 light bulbs and you go. Holy crap. Is this how bright it used to be in here your life actually looks bright again, your ability to sleep gets better your blood pressure actually goes down instead of up, misinformation out there.
Your prostate is healthier all the things that they say. You need to be careful for a really non-issues, but more importantly all of a sudden you have the energy [00:22:00] for life again to court your wife. If you're married, to start businesses to follow through with things life becomes exciting again, and that is what HRT did for me and that's what it does for 99% of the guys out there when they first start, back on hormone replacement therapy.
It's amazing, isn't it? Yeah, and I think that you bring up a good point. I have a lot of clients that don't work out. I mean they stay active right they , they might be waltz or some runs or they're not just they're not in the gym type ties as much but they they're on therapy because in their late 40s or 50s that these guys have to function, you know, their executive level sea level guys.
And gals that just needs to be sharp. They can have to bring in fog. They can't like just crawling out of bed. They get back to flying out of that. But you know living life with a purpose having that drive. And like you said, I have a lot of clients who [00:23:00] come on board their couples, right? Like they're in their late forties or fifties and things are kind of black and they're not okay with that.
They're not okay that they're blah, but they don't know how to fix it right there. Probably looking at different websites and buying different things on Amber's to bring the spice, but the spice is chemically just low and their body and then we bring that together. I mean we save marriages. Right.
And so that is nothing to do with your bench, press going to the gym or any of that stuff. It just has to do it a higher quality of life in that is what gets me excited. That is the purpose of what we do is to just achieve a higher. Lifestyle and what we do investor that we have on here who is going through some massive business growth and things like that and he the reason he became up ordered that I want to partner with you and help grow.
This thing to the next level is because he couldn't have done this [00:24:00] without being on this program. He's like, I look back and I think of how I felt fire to meeting you and going through this process with your doctor. I wouldn't I would have fizzled out and he's like I really literally believe that if it wasn't for that I wouldn't have had that sharpness that dried that hunger.
, and obviously been the best shape. He's been in and over 10 12 years in the gym. That's a byproduct of it to me. That's just the byproduct like it's science of when you're on successful therapy or just about going to be higher and you're going to get better results right here in a feel better those kind of things, but the lifestyle stuff is.
Really gets me. You know, I'm 38 years old and I stay fit and I go to the gym to feel good if it doesn't have done forever, but most importantly I want to be around too. Yeah, what if it my son he's a competitive soccer player and just be a role model of Health, you know, my [00:25:00] wife and I both fluent gym regularly to the kids and with I jokingly, but seriously, I want to live to 150 modern medicine and stem cells maybe it'll happen.
It's so I live my life that way and I share that with our clients whether it's. You know how I eat how I exercise how I sleep vitamins, you know things like that and also the hormone replacement therapy well and so glad do you know, Dr. Dale Bredesen who has a time New York Times bestseller an Amazon bestseller called the end of Alzheimer's he's been on my show.
He was originally on my Show 2014 when he finishes first study that was on 20. , and then he did another study that was on 200 people in the results of that study, became the book and he said he's a UCLA trained physician, , he was a professor there and he still affiliated with the UCLA hospital system and he has so he can't say he's reversed all timers because they can't biopsy brains and see what's [00:26:00] happened, but they don't take images, but all the symptoms of Alzheimer's go away.
The forgetfulness, , you know everything related. So his book approaches Alzheimer's without drugs except HRT. Now there's other thing that he shows people to do like, , stop eating three hours before bed. And I mean, it's a lifestyle and resistance exercise and all these things but one of the things that he does with every single patient, Is get them on HRT to get their hormones levels out.
Now, you know, it's unfortunate today that a lot of doctors have been scared off of considering HRT for their patients so they don't even learn about it. But here's a here's a UCLA trained physician. Who is reversing all timers and one of the things he does one of the several things he does is get guys and gals on HRT and get their sex steroids, balanced out.
And the reason for that in my humble opinion is the prime directive of every species is reproduction the prime directive of every species and repeating it for a reason is [00:27:00] reproduction and humans are the same way. And when sex steroids are high the body repairs itself because it believes that it's still can reproduce because it's Young And as the sex hormones start to drop the body goes it's time for me to clear up the planet and make room for others who can still reproduce so it makes perfect sense that returning to England can yeah a lot of yeah, right your brain still.
I just came aboard he's like 65 years old single very successful very successful guy. And he's like Adam he goes. I'm 65. She's like, but dude, I feel 25. He's like I want to still he's like, my brain won't accept what time is trying to hand to me? And he said I just he was I want to feel a hundred percent till the last breath I take on this Earth is like I'm not into.
Agent and dining and settling down and those kind of things. He said I just want to feel awesome all the time and in it I did too, you [00:28:00] know, and I think one thing you touched on is a lot of positions are afraid to deal with HRT. There's a couple things out there why number one is primarily used to treating sick people and giving them medication that's covered with insurance.
And so a lot of the hormone replacement therapy. Process is considered somewhat elective by insurance. They don't want to cover it. The doctors don't know how to justify it and some of those things so that's some of the fear to and one thing I'm working on with it with the screw up is building out this process that will helps educate doctors on it.
We have over 40 s positions that are clients of ours because they know that's not what they specialize in they were for a lot of their clients to us and they say Hey, listen, I'm not an expert missed your doctors are. I'm taking my hands off the wheel. I trust you, right and a lot of guys have been with us for years and then they're not really going to take the time [00:29:00] and potentially they may want to take the time to learn at themselves.
But they love the process they like what they're doing this and they're clients over their clients get healthier and well probably go to their office less they're healthier, but the and I share it with you because it's just , some people are better at different things. You know, we just we want to help so if we can help you and there's an opportunity to go through our process but doing that whether you're a male female or physician or whatever.
It might be. It's important and I think one of the most important things to , where we've been successful is like you mentioned earlier and then initial consultation call is you're going to work with myself or one of our staff members. And we're just regular people like you we're not doctors.
We're not going to talk. I can't stand when I talk to a medical professional and they start talkingg about stuff words in terms. I don't know. Yeah, I went to school. I love that. [00:30:00] You learned all that stuff because I can maybe put my faith in you a little bit. But if I don't know what you're saying like you might as well speak a different language and so what we've really done a good job in over the years.
Putting this conversation in just two people with it another woman or , and the guy we're just talking about what's going on. Tell me about your life what your goal is. How do you wear that? Doesn't it pulled her out of that stuff out because a lot of people and they get in the doctor's office and they're sitting there and it's like trial right?
What are you doing wrong? We need people don't loosen up and share. A lot of the things that could be fixed that we could but and so we really do a great job, especially initial consultation. Let's just let's just get to know each other. What's this talk? I mean my clients, you know, I say that they're all friends of mine.
If I so blessed with a [00:31:00] lot of things they've done for me because of what we've been able to do for them. Right? And so. We invite people end up with let's just had that call and then when the burglar comes in and the doctor goes through and makes the notes and makes the recommendations and go through everything we go through line by line, whether it's relevant to the hormones or relevant to but you know, whether it's a higher low and indicators which we're going to talk about it because we want our clients to walk away.
Okay. Number one these guys listen to me. That's who listen right to how I feel number two. They're thorough and I understand what they're saying explain it to me just like any you know, I have a ten-year-old son. I think if I couldn't tell my son about my blood work a little bit. And explain it to me, then I'm not doing a good job, but it's not why I like this right here.
This represents kidney function. Sometimes it's high because you know dad takes a lot [00:32:00] of protein a lot of pre workouts those kind of things Indiana sling it to him. So they're like, ah, you know because I think of the times for me personally what I would go to the doctor and I leave and I'm just like felt like jaded almost I'm like man, I don't I don't feel like I don't feel good about leaving because I don't know what they said.
Everything's normal. I want to know though a lot of people are curious crazy questions and I love them what people have heard about all the questions. I think if you don't have any questions, but I'm concerned if you have lots of questions. I love its conversation. The more educated you are the more you more conversation we have or you know, we care the more we know that you care right because if you don't care.
You may not fall through on some of the things to get the results. So when we both know that there's a bit understanding care some people they trust you the follow what the doctor says, [00:33:00] they know they can tell that you care about the results and then we continue to follow up on it look like what's this this is going on or this seem to be changing or you know, and we can help troubleshoot that will solve those issues.
And so we really try to make HRT personal. As opposed to Medical in the sense of its. But it's a personal thing. You know, we're talking about I don't feel good. I don't I'm not attracted to my wife lately. I haven't really issues. I just go to the gym and I'm depressed. You know, those are things people have trouble sharing and we try to create that spot.
It sounds kind of silly to stuff doesn't sound Macho but it but being in that place to create an open conversation to be vulnerable is the fastest way to solve those problems. And that's what we've highly focused on and I want to plug the website again because we're going to take a break and when we come back we're going to talk about the fact that [00:34:00] doctors tell people that having low levels of hormones is okay for their age age-specific aging part.
I want to talk about that. I have some analogies for that. But the website is renewed life RX tell people real quick, , how the process works they go there and they set up a phone call, right? We'll set up , just thought their health information as their contact information. So our to be contacted will reach out to them.
We'll talk to them a little bit about why their you know their conversation whether maybe they're at a clinic we have people that go to these clinics that they have to be lovers we can do the step and it doesn't work for them convenient wise but in a way we bring them in, , they'll thoughts and health history information pretty detailed history information.
We'll send them out to your blood work. We send them out to get a physical locally with one of our one of our kind of partner positions that kind of physically see them check the box and then [00:35:00] we kind of partner from that standpoint to go through put them on a the doctor go to the blood work go through the health history and the physical.
put a program recommendation together with some either kind of mandatories. I say this being some things might be mandatory for health, , and then some optional things to look into it to kind of create your optimize other areas of their health. And then if everything sounds good, we've got everything with one of our partners pharmacies shipped out to them and , they get they get going from there.
So we usually put clients 90-day programs. We follow up every two weeks probably usually like. Pretty often in the beginning but I think it going it's not something that you should be messing with every single day. So we don't want clients a lot of people want to change that. So I'm going to change this order to adjust this or one day.
They had a bad day. So they think it's their hormones are screwed up like shit happens. We have [00:36:00] to write or speak is terrible. I'm like what's going on your house? Oh my wife my daughter my son Seth. Dude, you just dodged the insect or maybe a little low. But because you're on you know, therapy your immune system fought whatever they caught and you just had a world but week, you know, there's stuff like that.
That happens is sometimes we forget about we want to think we need to adjust the hormone. So anyway, yes reaching out with the contact information first schedule quality and walk you through the process mystical we move as fast as you do and we can have you kind of up and running in seven to ten days.
through our process is both about, you know, service and convenience and obviously being thorough but we've put things together to do that. Oh very well together http://RenewLifeRx.com and also super radio listeners get a discount. So let them know that you came from here. We're gonna take a quick commercial break when we come back going to address the notion that doctors [00:37:00] tell their patients that if your age you're fine and what that really means stay tuned.
Welcome back. We're talking with Adam Lamb. Every new life RX place to start so a lot of doctors. Well, first of all a lot of times you'll go and get blood work. They won't even test the things at this supposed to test. Very rarely do they test on their own like testosterone and stuff like that. But more importantly I never have put it this way in 10 years of doing this.
I've never seen a doctor when people want to get their blood work on their own. We just had to go through us now because it's always ends up something short, right and never seen him do it. I've actually taken a panel into my old primary curve and this is eight years ago, and he was like.
Dude, I don't even know what these are I can tell you that because we're fragile. Like I don't even know what half this stuff. This is like you tell me so I can order [00:38:00] it for you, you know, and it's not necessary fault. They're just not taught that right, but the other thing that they do is that when they do run testosterone and let's say the Rangers 320 to 1200, and being below 320 your hypo gonadal.
And you come in at 450 and your doctor says to you. Well, you know age, plays a role in this then that's okay for your age and I've often wanted to say to those doctors. Let me ask you a question insulin resistance increases with age. Why would you put me on meds Foreman if I'm insulin resistance and I just accept that or better yet.
How about if my oxygen saturation is low. Why would you put me on Albuterol? Because I'm having problems with my lungs isn't that part of aging to it's interesting? What doctors are willing to accept? As part of the aging process but not the other things and typically they're willing. Like I said before I put you on statin drugs and all these other drugs that carry nasty [00:39:00] side effects.
Why don't they say, you know, what for your age your cholesterol is high but it's okay, but they'll say that about testosterone while your testosterone is low, but it's okay because of your age. Yeah. I think a lot of it comes from being educated about drugs from the drug reps. As opposed, you know, there isn't a drug rep out there pushing hormonal therapy.
If there was an army of them hormone replacement therapy probably blow up and I think here now I use a similar one that I'd say no car. I'm thinking of hiring you. The range is between 320 to 1200. Which one do you want? Right? No one in the right mind is going to say I'll take the 320, right? When you think of the lifestyle you can live on $32,000 a year compared to $120,000 lifestyle.
Would you prefer right? And it's the same thing with what replacement therapy if you would prefer would you know, I want I want to live at the top, of course you do because you're gonna have a better [00:40:00] life, you're gonna more opportunity you're gonna feel better about yourself all those things and that's kind of similar to your analogy the same one that I used.
with clients so they understand it and I think like you said there's education on going on it. And then I think a lot of the concerns I hear from clients to can I come off? How do I come off? That's the whole next step. I think sometimes I mean I had some clients to do it kind of seasonally just in her head.
I think they feel like. They need if they can give themselves a timeout that break, , that makes them feel better about themselves. You know and if it fits what works for them and their blood work shows that that's what's healthy for them.
Yeah, we don't object-- to it. I don't typically go off. I actually used to toss her on the cream regularly, but you know, there's probably 30 days [00:41:00] a year when I might just do like a full detox body break the things in you know, you might feel a little crummy for a couple weeks. do a bit of a reset things like that.
It just varies on the individual individuals blood work, in making sure that the most I've ever done is I've just lowered my well, I haven't load my dose. But I've instead of doing a weekly injection I go through periods where I'll do it every 11 days. And so, you know, my testosterone level absolutely come down.
But I would I would never come off. I have no plans of coming off and I I mean I I I don't understand. Why would I mean it's so good it can like you said that the guy who's in his 90s. I mean, I don't understand, you know, I think part of the problem is coming off. He said he'll quit when he dies.
Yeah, that's what I was saying when I can't when I die then I stopped. That's it. Like why would I [00:42:00] take this away that has given me so many benefits. But I do I do I do I do go longer in between injections. I'm actually doing that right now and I just do it instinctively every now and then that's it.
There's things you know, like I said it when you understand your body your blood work shows things are good. There's different things that can be done. But kind of talk a little bit about you know, why you would stop like the older you are I said a client prefers dad over it was like 77 and if I mean you known as muscle wasting.
You know just something like that just being able to I think of like being able to just keep walking longer right? There's going to come a day. You know, I'm 38 years old and it's a leg issues lately which hindered me walk and I can't run right now, but I it's made me think they'll like there's some days where I just wish I could go for a one mile walk.
Right. There's [00:43:00] going to be days in our lives. We don't think about now because we take a lot of things for granted, that you know, just getting up and going for a great walk. Right? There's going to come a time your body's not going to let you do you want that sooner or later, right? You know what I mean?
I don't want to live 20 years where I have to sit on the couch and have to get help off the couch help to the bathroom that help back to the couch. I'd like to be dead that I would rather be, you know, jumping off the couch chasing my wife down and then going to see my great-grandkids. You know, I mean and cheer them out of being that obnoxious great grandpa.
That's the life. I want to live personally and I believe it will replacement therapy is going to help me obtain that life goes on men are much more complex than we thought right back in the day. It used to be just give a guy testosterone. But now we [00:44:00] understand that pregnant Alone, , like. , HCG to maintain testicular size, but also function the testes produce more than just testosterone, often overlooked to we just see this all the time in blood work, especially for long-term.
Testosterone users is your SHBG levels will tank. And when those tank that's the same signs that you have the same symptoms of low testosterone. No issues low libido. You don't feel that drive. You start getting the brain fogginess back and it's a matter of getting those SHBG levels back up to move this tossed around in the system better and we see that Alton that's something that.
Nobody looks at I mean they never look at that stage be 0 and in fact, it's about one year in most guys about one to one and half years and like they started they start HRT and they're like, I feel amazing and about a one and a half year mark, they start noticing maybe a little hair shedding. They don't feel as good and that's because the testes produce other hormones, especially.
Pregnenolone [00:45:00] into progesterone because progesterone reduces 5-alpha reductase biosynthesis. So it keeps your hair from thinning. But also as you point out SHBG is better understood now, it doesn't bind up in an activate. It's actually still active and it moves testosterone around in and out of tissue better.
So. When in estrogen then moves all the sex, right? So do you do you do you do you guys believe in the protocol like, , Dr. Crisler promotes 120IU’s a day or do you do the larger doses of , HCG more sporadically, , you know in to talk about the cookie cutter thing again, we don't have a set.
Right, we don't but we usually like it depends. Like I said in the client when they come over is going to vary on dosing and how often and also their protocol to stops where they do in a week those kind of things but I would say typically anywhere from you know, 300 IU’s three times a week to 250 IU’s.
Twice a week, right 250 units [00:46:00] twice a week somewhere in that range people come across works. Maybe it's 500 units twice a week. It's just in that range. Nothing too much more aggressive than that or less than that. , but some clients that don't need it.
We had a pro bodybuilder who wanted to switch to HRT doses and he's been on with us for six months. We put him on testosterone cream. And in his health, his blood work is the best it's been he said in 10 years and it feels great. And the reason I share that is but it's not all just about injections and this and that the and a lot of times with the clients are the clean they don't aromatize or don't as much they also LH levels and FSH levels are adversely affected and so once again [00:47:00] less is more.
You know what? I mean? And so and I just share that meaning that it's not all one thing in like when you talk about the cookie cutter thing. That's the stuff that just like I quietly have to hold it in because there's such a range when I talk to somebody for the first time and sometimes they're like, well, I think I need this this and this.
Respectfully, how do you know what you need or what because you read a form you did was look we've seen thousands and thousands of people's blood work. All right, I've had guys come to me with 3,000. Crazy stuff, I think guys come we just recently a client came to me that his from another clinic is that 1750?
He's like dude, I can't get an erection. I've had no libido. He's like, I feel like he's like, I think the pharmacy that I get my stuff from is making fake stuff like that. I mean that's where his brain was because I just didn't see not working because that was [00:48:00] it for or something like that. And so we got his SHP.
Let's do this first and he's like to hates when she left that clinic came to us. She said you guys just know what you're doing more and so he's working with us now. And so and if his parkour from he just turned 50 and June is going was good health is he's been in a long time. by June and we did a lot of work a little bit early July after 50th birthday just blood work is the best TV show.
You pulled up three years of past blood work. It's the best it's been and so, you know, I don't we don't care about bench, press I don't care about how big your pulling tape on your biceps if your cholesterol is the best it's been in 5-10 years your blood pressure's down all that stuff and you feel great.
Done get back in the gym anymore or something, you know, the other part will come if your body is healthy and functioning right? But that's the stuff [00:49:00] that's most important. That's the stuff at the end of the day that makes us feel like we have you know, the best Clinic is because. To your health education better.
I mean, you know want to stops rooms not a it's that big science go pull one ml to stop putting his shoulder. Just let you got high testosterone mouth. But how about the rest of the stuff? Right that stuff there and that's what gives us a lot of stigma testosterone that for its own healthy and it causes all these, you know, blood pressure things that you mentioned earlier.
It's because it's just it's not properly looked at. They're not looking at the big picture. They're just zeroing in on something to me. It's so obvious that the when you're on testosterone if you feel good, the last thing that we need to look at is testosterone. Right because we already know take this you'll have high testosterone every single time.
So the rest of the stuff is your body working together as it in harmony or hormones [00:50:00] at Harmony are your other health indicators here, you know that your blood pressure dropped down as your cholesterol levels good, you know understanding your diet. We understand that certain, you know, an AI medication can negatively affect your HDL levels, right?
If you're one of those individuals are we making sure we're providing guidance and maybe supplementation to help that out, too. That's a big issue. We see guys come in with testosterone LHS like 27:22 the other day 22, I'm like that's not have a gotta get your and so, you know, things like that.
That would be such a stretch for a primary care physician who wasn't super familiar with hormone replacement therapy to think about test for and understand it correct. And that's why when I go back to we've seen thousands of people's blood work. There's nothing surprises me. I've seen it all man who actually women with 1252 levels.
I've seen men with you know, with levels as low as 54. We've seen it all and we've helped fix about all of them. So that will give us the [00:51:00] confidence to you know, bring the clients and it really expand the clinic because we've got the right people in the right place. I want to take our last commercial break and I want to change it up.
I want to talk about something that we hadn't planned on talking about but I just I just saw this. I didn't realize that you had written a book recently called better than the binge and you and I are on the same page as it comes to alcohol. I've been talking about alcohol on the show from the standpoint of I get it.
You like the buzz but don't tell me it's good for you. Because if it's good for you give it to your dog your cat and your babies and your kids. Yeah alcohol is you know, if we accept the risks and the harm that it does because it gives you a buzz. But , but you talk about how to beat the social pressure of drinking.
I want to talk about your book when we come back. Yeah do that. I'd [00:52:00] love to the website is http://ReNewLifeRx.com go there let them know that Super Human Radio sent you and take the phone call, get on track fix your hormones live a better life. It's really simple stuff stay tuned. We'll be right
back.
Welcome back to change the topic a little bit. Alcohol is a neurotoxin. We know that it destroys the nervous system. In fact, the way alcohol gives you a buzz. You don't have any alcohol receptors. You don't have an ethanol receptor in your brain. What it does is it attaches itself to the one of the Gaba receptors?
And the way the word works intoxication the word toxic is in there. It's toxic. To the brain and causes this foggy feeling that we associate with having fun. , you know a little bit of mercury will do the same thing to you believe it or not, but we don't hear anybody telling you to go out and have a little mercury this weekend and have some fun and pairing your Mercury with your meal that this Mercury [00:53:00] is good with beef and that one is good with fish, but we do without coal because alcohol has been something that for thousands of years we have.
Embraced it's a big business to billions of dollars. So trying to say anything of negative about alcohol is always calm batted with , the research out there that people choose to listen to that says, oh if you drink a little alcohol, you'll live better and the live longer and they do these. , almost empty logical studies where they ask people questions people can't remember what they ate yesterday.
Oh how often you drink alcohol and people everybody lies about how much alcohol? Yeah. Well, you know what you over report. What you think is good behavior on the report would you think is bad behavior? And the reality is that alcohol is not good for you. And if it is good for you, then why wouldn't you give it to your children and give them the leg up on being healthier?
So you wrote a book called better than the binge talk [00:54:00] about it. Yeah, well better than the binge overcoming the social obligation of alcohol. And so I was associate Drinker in my 20s. I worked in nightclubs and partied on a personal level at a group of the father who. Was an alcoholic he kind of left early in my life and eventually actually drank himself to death and it was always in the back of my mind that I even though.
I knew it would happen. I would never would want to put my kids through what my dad put me in my brother through just not being around and kind of choosing a substance over his sons and I kind of told myself in the back of my head that you know, he passed away we knew he would he retired and just I mean II 6 o'clock in the morning.
That I was like, you know what maybe I'll quit drinking alcohol always played a role in my life from you know, I bartended for ten years, in that space was a social drinker. And you know when my bodybuilding [00:55:00] years actually was a time that I drank the least. I mean when I'd be like I'm I think I'm prepping for like Junior Nationals.
I didn't have a drop of alcohol for nine months, but new Rec one little bit one drink can totally pull water from your muscles all that stuff that can stop now the protein synthesis and things like that and that's why joke with my buddies the weekend warrior guys that. They've been doing what they've been doing for the last 15 years and then look the same because they can't stop drinking in the weekends.
They don't realize like if you want to see some serious results in your body and you put the time in the diet and you put the time in the , the gym. But you like to have a couple beers and or few drinks in the weekend or a drink or selenite pull that out for 30 days and you'll blow your mind. But for me personally, I was a might have a couple cocktails in the evening or a couple glasses [00:56:00] of wine my wife and I might split a bottle of wine.
And I kind of I'm very much into you know, self-improvement lifestyle Improvement. I read a ton of books. You know, I have a little pretty healthy lifestyle exercising. I I'm always focused on work and be better and it doing kind of my life assessment at the time. There was alcohol. I couldn't justify it like getting a few really feel back down.
You really get honest with yourself. You can't justify alcohol. It's a poison, right? It causes more problems than Solutions, right? Especially if you've ever had something where you did said something done, you know a work meeting or you're out somewhere wedding or whatever. It might be like, there's times our alcohol pleasure roll.
You do dumb things. You would have done without the alcohol and so I was like, you know what? Maybe I'm gonna just take a shot at not drinking. I've been drinking mm High School, right? So by no means if I were to die today, the absolute last thing on my list [00:57:00] would be I wish the party little bit more, you know, I did plenty of it barking my days my party Kid Rock I've hung out with celebrity stuff done.
I'm not worried about that part my life. I did it and so. I thought I'm going to pull it out. I told my wife at the end of the summer. We lived in the lake at the time and Michigan. So we like, you know, you just get on the road and you're drinking chips on kinds of stuff and I'm like, I'm just gonna do it.
So 30 days in and I kind of have someone who likes a challenge. I just said look I'm going to do it more. You know, I went through these social engagements. I want to awesome trip like the Detroit Lions on there playing football team hanging out, you know five-star dinners, and I'm ordering. But the water and everybody looked at me and just doing with some of that adversity with the Vegas for the Olympia and that's a lot of meetings or people are drinking.
[00:58:00] I wasn't drinking a first-time been to Vegas without drinking and so a lot of that stuff going through it dealing with the uncomfortable situations socially. Was the hardest part right home and it was it was no problem. Right? Because every question people when you choose not to drink people feel compelled to get you to drink not because they think you're going to feel better.
But to absolve them of their own guilt knowing that they should be drinking makes them feel bad you feel outside and it's like you took their pants away. I mean, they feel that uncomfortable. Yes, and so going through that and dealing with those I realized that the problem though. I didn't even like to drink.
Drink a lot. You know I know time is going to be too much concerts like with the group and we got to and we're kind of deal you drink too much in the next movie you wake up like I do it and so but there Comes A Time in life to wear and there's a couple different ways to [00:59:00] look at this ball continue the path is so I decided I got to like that 90-day mark.
I was like, what do I do now? And I looked at it I said I will never drink again. There's the people at the anxiety that's associated with regular alcohol use that in all that stuff in your life. Especially if you've had some struggles with that and so this 90-day Mark I was like, I'll never drink again and I am I felt like the most free new person I've ever felt in my life because I felt like that.
No longer me I did was no longer needed something and I felt more confident the sense of put me in any situation. I don't need a drink and so I was like, how do I do this? I don't want to be the guy that in every social engagement. I'm talking about it. I'm not Debbie Downer. I still scheduled meetings with friends for drinks and drinks.
I like I haven't I but you like your beer catch up with you. I want to [01:00:00] see it's not I don't care about your drinking. But if you care about your drinking your concern, I want to create a safe space to talk about it. And so I wrote the book. to walk people through the process to see it and also let them understand like I get what you might be going through a business partners another company in mine.
Whoever drinks, he's probably like four beers a year. He doesn't get it. But there's other people that I know that you know through business. Maybe they're out doing drinks of clients and things like that. They're like man. I just I don't want a drink but I feel like I have to and so taking them through and it was funny because I work with a lot of high functioning individuals in a hormone replacement therapy space.
I probably worked with a couple dozen of those clients that found out about my book and they said amen. I want to talk about I think it applied to that dude. I've been 60 days in alcohol free. He's [01:01:00] like I can't thank you enough. And so I bring them into I have like a one-on-one kind of coaching process.
I bring these people to a 90-day program the same thing that I went through. It's pretty intense was wise people type A personalities. And we do some tough conversations and really dig deep into your character and your confidence who you are because what we want to do is break the attachment to alcohol if I can to make you really aware of your personal relationship with alcohol.
If it's bad you're going to run from it. Some people don't have a bad relationship with alcohol some people do and so the goal of the book is really just. Raise that self awareness around the relationship of alcohol potentially a problem with your life. If the answer is yes, let's talk about it.
I want to talk. I want to help you see it differently because what we do is we see things as like what everybody else is doing it on TV. I mean every time I see an alcohol [01:02:00] commercial on TV I cringe because. It should be treated like cigarettes, right? You don't see cigarette stuff. You wouldn't give your kid a cigarette you wouldn't if you and I just were like sitting down at you know, the Olympia smoking cigarettes people be like, okay?
Okay, it's just as bad. Yep, but it's not looked at it. It's grand prizes like this fun thing or salt like this Modelo commercial and was showing the three like professional athletes and like. It's not where you're from. It's how you put something like that. I was like that is absolute garbage.
We're putting in because I better write, you know better but these young kids that are might be in high school and they see this Victory pro football players retired pro football player athletes that are drinking and like oh cool. That's the beer. I want a drink this week and those guys can it's just terrible.
It's not right. I didn't I didn't drink so much money. I didn't drink for 10 years. And I changed my life. I was very [01:03:00] sick at the time. I had just turned 40 and I had a heart problem. I was 330 pounds and I literally I stopped drinking for 10 years in. And then when I went through my divorce, I look so good.
I was muscular. I was I looked a lot younger than I was and I started dating and then you know all the five years younger than I well. Yeah, I know and you know what the funny thing is. I've asked this question on the show. I've actually done a show about this. What is it about the human condition that when we reach whatever the Pinnacle is that we consider.
Success that self-destruction becomes the reward for reaching. I mean you look at you look at people you look at people they work their entire lives. They become multimillionaires. And what do they do? They start pounding down cocaine and drinking every minute of the day or you look at the guy even in another extreme, but more likely you look at the guy who's worked.
He turns 65 he retires and [01:04:00] now he just starts drinking all the time. What is it about reaching the Pinnacle that we believe the reward is self-destruction. I think that it's there's because the celebration and alcohol pie together are so tight when I think of even before I quit drinking I start drinking on my birthday because I thought it was the dumbest thing in the world.
How do you celebrate life your life? By poisoning yourself to like intoxication. It seems like it's my birthday. We're going out in the chest like this. It makes no sense. How Could You Forget workout have a super healthy day contact all the people you love that have been in your life, you know, and this is just like that you get to know what that the person who I actually a.m.
And that's how I think that's how you celebrate life. You don't do it by getting train-wreck drunk. And thrown up all over yourself, right but we do that stuff. We do it at weddings. We're celebrating, you know, joining few people together and we doing all this [01:05:00] kind of situations. I think it's goofy.
It's backwards, but I do believe I'll tell you that I believe in my heart that alcohol is slowly going to move into that cigarette space a generation that's going to just they're going to move on and there's a younger generation that you know these younger kids. Are not drinking there's a lot but there's still a lot that aren't they just don't they don't care for it and whether they're smoking pot or something else, but they just they see that it doesn't it doesn't do much for me.
There's so much risk with drinking and driving. I mean, there's just so much baggage that goes along with alcohol and there's zero baggage with no alcohol and that's when the real conversations you can't convince me. Having alcohol in my life. It's a good thing right the better. Yeah, and I've said those exact words that having alcohol in your life is not better than not having alcohol.
In fact, it's better not to have alcohol. We could the idea that you'll live longer [01:06:00] because you drink a glass of wine every day. That's nonsense bullshit. You're living with your two glasses of water. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It is nonsense. It's total nonsense. There's you know that it's always comes from the same guy that eats, you know, the drinks it to Wii remote.
That they're looking they're looking for justification. They're going to embrace anything that tells that absolves them of the guilt of doing something that they know they should be doing. So right now if you listening to the podcast if you go to the Superhuman radio network page all my personal page, you will find an opportunity to get a free copy of the book called better than the binge now.
Downloading it is the first step. You may not want to read it right away because you're going out this weekend. You're like well, I'll read it next week, but you don't want the truth of the matter is you don't need alcohol to have fun. In fact, I sleep like crap when I drink alcohol. I feel crappy the next day when I [01:07:00] drink alcohol.
I mean I get though, I wake up in the middle of the night with anxiety attacks when I drink alcohol, so I know what you're talking about the anxiety. You know, what? But deeper today anxiety that people don't understand about self-worth about social situations. I mean, it's the stuff that we dig into.
You know, I'm not a therapist. I'll say that out loud and I joke and say like I'm not your bro. It was kind of like my thing to people but it's a real person that's gone through these things. It's it's crazy the stuff that comes along with it for regular. Alcohol use, you know, my wife she still has a glass of wine sometimes to almost every night, but it doesn't it's never goes beyond that.
It's one of her things. I don't push, you know, if she was like, you know, I'm gonna quit drinking great awesome honey, I think would be a good choice for to do but I've never pushed it just like I don't with friends of mine, right? They come to [01:08:00] me. I bet safe place non-judgment. That just let's talk about it.
Let's break it down. Let's get in a few if you're very serious about wanting to move alcohol from your life. I can help you. I've helped lot of doing it. There's a lot of people don't have a problem. And you know what lesson go on with yourself. That's it. But if you mean if you're someone who's drinking and it is causing you not to feel good after you drink then you have to ask yourself.
Why do I do it? I think a few things. What's that point? I say just a easy inarguable blanket statement if you ever not like, you know once in a while, but if you ever meaning like on occasion you drink to intoxication you have an alcohol relationship problem, right? , so the other part of it is for the reason also had this book is I wasn't okay with.
Going to a route. I think it's great for some people to it's an awesome program. I've read the book. I know a [01:09:00] lot of friends have gone through it. I just wasn't for me and maybe it was my pride and a lot of people that you know, they look at stop drinking. They're like does that mean I have to tell people I'm an alcoholic does it mean I have to go to meetings does it mean I have to be in recovery, and I'm what's my recovery date because I work a lot of the people in that space and that's their space and that's what helps them overcome their challenges.
To pursue the goal of but it's sobriety. Are you sober I don't say it's over but it's just like I don't some people might say are you a Christian? I'm like, what do you think a Christian to look like? You know the same thing was sober like what are sober look like does that mean I don't have coffee, you know, so I don't I don't consume alcohol and I don't do a list of drugs, but I just don't like those labels and I think it's just something that like if [01:10:00] I was like, you know, let these cigarettes.
Is the analogy in the space because it's a very closely tied sometimes with just saying like for you know you of us are you a smoker? So if you quit smoking. Right and you don't smoke anymore. You don't have a label maybe like we're used to smoke right on the doctors thing. You might check like you previously smoke but you get the release tab, but with alcohol, you have to be an alcoholic and sobriety got to go these meetings and some people are like dude.
I'm not ready for that. I'm not ready to have those labels because it can do is it can give you that self-esteem and confidence? And so that's what I want to create the book and say, let's see if you're the only reason you're not stopping alcohol's because you think the only path. You have to label yourself all these things.
You don't I don't and I didn't and you don't have to either you're just make the decision to stop. You know, if you could [01:11:00] stop if you stop eating red meat tomorrow people are from Carl, you know, you just made a choice, right? You know, I really want to friends. He's a Peta activist. He's a he's a vegan.
, and we were talking about it because he struggled with some alcohol and then I'm glad he'd actually quit Drinking, or like he used to and I said, I'm like dude you gave up eating meat very kind of stuff. I was like 100 times harder than giving up alcohol. You never need. You don't need it.
It's just a choice usually by. Uncomfortable situations, you put yourself in and grabbing the drink over managing the uncomfortable situation is to split people choose if you choose to say, I'm going to manage that situation and what it does it carries any other parts of your life where you become more confident where you choose, you know in a peer pressure situation or people are ordering dessert dinner or whatever.
It might be you just more confidence in that for me. I'm good, because you've overcome something [01:12:00] that you know, millions and hundreds of millions of people can't. I just refusing alcohol. Yeah, you know and so I love it a great topic and like I said going in and these are T in the book like to help people and that's why I created multiple those things, to sell people on a journey to discover some new stuff about themselves.
Yeah. , I want to just plug the website one more time. The website is renew. Life RX a lot of times getting HRT straightened out mitigates the need for alcohol. I've done shows about that years ago. I'm like 2008. guys who start drinking because self-medicating get on testosterone and. Get all of their hormone straightened out and all of a sudden they just don't have the need for alcohol anymore in the same is true of women a lot of women as they go through menopause.
That's when they start drinking. , and because they're self-medicating.
