Male Andropause – Dr. Harry Fisch

Dr. Kokayi and his guest, Dr. Fisch, discuss certain indicators of a drop in testosterone in men (ie: an increase in a man’s waist size) as well as the connection between low testosterone and the inability to lose weight.

Dr. Fisch mentions certain foods to be avoided (breads, pizza, pasta, cookies and cakes) as well as what foods are preferable. They go on to discuss Viagra and the limitations of its use in men with low testosterone.
