February is deemed as American Heart Health Month and it is an absolutely critical time to consider the role hormones play in your overall health and longevity. No matter what you eat or how much you exercise, humans typically lose 50% of their testosterone by age 35. This can have severely damaging effects on your heart’s health.

Your heart is a muscle

We all know that testosterone affects muscle, right? But consider this, as your body loses testosterone, it also loses its ability to increase muscle mass. And your heart is the most important muscle in your body!

So even if you aren’t worried about the size of your biceps, the muscles that strengthen your heart can also benefit from testosterone. Among other issues, this can affect your exercise regimen, your stress levels, and your body’s ability to recover from illness quickly and efficiently. All of these factors can play a significant part in the health and strength of your cardiovascular system.
