56% Less Likely to die when tot T is "normalized": a study of 83,000 older veterans on TRT

Just published in European Heart Journal 8/6/15

http://eurheartj.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2015/07/27/eurheartj.ehv346

Not a double-blind placebo-ed trial. Strong correlation to 56% reduction of mortality over the 5 year follow-up among those who achieved normalized total T serum levels.

The study is receiving main stream press notoriety.

edit: men (>50 years) who had their hormone level restored to normal were 24 percent less likely to suffer a heart attack, 36 percent less likely to suffer a stroke and 56 percent less likely to die during the follow-up period.

Send her this one also. Look at how many medical groups want the two flawed studies to be taken down from publication:

And here are a bunch more studies finding no link between testosterone replacement and cardiovascular mortality in men:

Ha! This will keep her reading for a bit! But she will read them since she read your first post.
