#68 - What Testosterone Really Does to You | Dr. Nicole Weirich at Men's Health

In this episode of the podcast "Men's Health with Dr. Jonathan Apasu," urologist and hormone expert Dr. Nicole Weirich discusses the multifaceted significance of testosterone and explains why it is far more than just a symbol of muscles and masculinity. Testosterone influences energy levels, sleep, libido, concentration, emotional stability, and overall performance in men. Nevertheless, many men are often left to their own devices with the explanation that their blood test results are "normal," even though they feel tired, lethargic, or unbalanced. The conversation makes it clear that a thorough diagnosis involves more than just measuring total testosterone. Free testosterone is crucial, as it can be significantly affected by factors such as SHBG, stress, or being overweight. Hormones like LH, FSH, and prolactin, as well as the patient's medical history, also play a central role in differentiating between primary and functional hypogonadism. This episode explores both the causes and modern treatment approaches. While primary forms often require lifelong testosterone replacement therapy, functional causes such as sleep deprivation, stress, or insulin resistance can be positively influenced by lifestyle changes. Dr. Weirich provides a practical explanation of the differences between gels and injections, determining the correct dosage, and the necessity of close medical monitoring. The aspect of fertility is particularly important, as testosterone therapy can affect spermatogenesis and therefore must always be individually tailored. Another focus is on the role of abdominal fat, aromatase, and the conversion of testosterone to estrogen. Visceral fat promotes hormonal imbalances, which can be positively influenced by targeted training, nutrition, and improved insulin sensitivity. The text also explains how the liver and intestines are involved in hormone metabolism, the role of B vitamins, bitter substances, sulfur-containing amino acids, and the gut microbiota, and why the estrobolome is crucial for maintaining a balance of sex hormones. This episode conveys that testosterone should not be viewed in isolation, but rather as part of a complex system involving hormones, metabolism, lifestyle, and psychological factors. Thorough diagnostics, medically supervised therapy, and practical lifestyle measures are the foundation for helping men achieve greater energy, vitality, performance, and quality of life in the long term.

#45 - Gefährliche Fehlinformationen auf Social Media | Alexander Friedrich bei Männergesundheit

#45 - Dangerous Misinformation on Social Media | Alexander Friedrich at Men's Health

In this episode of the men's health podcast, Dr. Jonathan Apasu and Alex, well-known in the fitness and health industry, discuss a highly topical and increasingly worrying issue: medical misinformation online. With the growing reach and influence of social media, health myths, pseudoscientific claims, and emotionally charged disinformation are also increasing dramatically. Particularly insidious is the strategy of many so-called "health influencers" to combine half-truths with sensationalist statements, making even factually questionable claims appear plausible and convincing at first glance. Alex describes this mechanism with a provocative yet memorable metaphor: the "shit sandwich." This involves deliberately placing a false, dangerous, or completely out-of-context piece of information between two true statements—a pattern that works particularly well in viral reels and TikToks. Together, Alex and Dr. Apasu analyze how trust in medicine, science, and government institutions has suffered massively in recent years—especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic—and why this very distrust has become fertile ground for medical disinformation. Besides criticizing conspiracy theories, the two also discuss the concrete consequences of such content: from financial exploitation through overpriced "cures" to genuine health risks, for example, when evidence-based therapies are replaced by supposedly "natural" alternatives. Alex advocates for greater media literacy, more scientific education – and above all, humor as an antidote to fear-mongering and manipulation. Instead of panic and pseudo-religious health mania, what's needed is common ground between conventional medicine and reputable, evidence-based alternative medicine. This episode is aimed at anyone who wants to navigate the digital health jungle without falling for clickbait, hype, or toxic self-improvement talk. It shows how important it is to critically examine statements, check sources, and not overestimate oneself – because, as Alex aptly puts it: those who think they know everything are often sitting on "Mount Stupidity." Whether for those interested in medicine, social media users or health-conscious individuals – this episode offers well-founded insights, debunks dangerous myths and at the same time provides practical impulses for a more conscious approach to health information online.

Professor Pförringer clearly explains the role that proper posture, varied movement in daily life, and targeted strength training play in orthopedic health, and why balance is the key. A particular focus is placed on the often underestimated risk of osteoporosis in men, as well as on which early detection measures are advisable and how bone health can be maintained through nutrition, vitamin D, and targeted exercise. The topic of hyaluronic acid injections is also covered in detail: when they are helpful, how they work, and what to consider. Furthermore, the podcast addresses effective training methods for prevention, the importance of gait and posture analysis, the role of braces and orthotics, and modern digital approaches such as rehabilitation apps to support long-term therapy. The podcast also explores the opportunities and limitations of alternative treatment approaches such as osteopathy and chiropractic, and why sound training and experience of practitioners are crucial. This episode provides practical expert knowledge, explained clearly and scientifically sound. It is aimed at all men who want to better understand their musculoskeletal system and take targeted steps for their health, whether they are athletically active, have demanding office jobs, or are already experiencing discomfort.
