Do hormone therapies slow aging?

Don't take hormones or so-called "hormone releasers" just because of advertising come-ons. Previously we thought the most powerful antiaging agent for postmenopausal women was estrogen-based hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Now we are told that this isn't the case.

However, neither of those positions may be correct. It may be we've done the studies wrong. Nevertheless, there are a lot of hormone come-ons -- everything from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) for men to a pill for human growth hormone (HGH).

We don't know if any of these have a RealAge (physiologic age) benefit yet. Testosterone does have a benefit for specific populations. Remember, there is a substantial RealAge benefit for avoiding the wrong HRT.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
