u-curve for men and bone density

Vince

Super Moderator
There are many studies showing the relationship between belly fat and men bone density. This is just one.

The u-curve for men's belly fat and bone density can be analyzed through body composition measurements, particularly using Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scans.


The studies mentioned above provide insights into the relationship between men's belly fat and bone density, particularly focusing on the U-shaped curve associated with obesity parameters. These studies suggest that deviations from the optimal range of obesity parameters can negatively impact bone health.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
