In this episode of The Balanced Bodies Blueprint, we delve into a topic that's often shrouded in secrecy and stigmatized: Anabolic Steroid Use.
Join us as we explore the world of performance-enhancing drugs, the reasons people turn to them, and the implications for health and fitness. Whether you're a bodybuilder, an athlete, or just someone curious about the topic, this discussion will shed light on the steroid dilemma.
Coach Vinny and Dr. Eryn discuss various key points and insights:
- Epidemiology: Anabolic steroid use isn't limited to athletes; studies reveal prevalence rates ranging from 1-15% in the general population and a global estimate of 1-5%.
- Clinicians and Trust: Patients often hesitate to discuss steroid use with healthcare providers due to trust issues. Bridging this gap can lead to better-informed decisions.
- Brain and Steroids: The less-discussed topic of how steroids may affect the brain is explored. Questions arise regarding long-term cognitive function and potential associations with neurocognitive disorders.
- Risks and Consequences: Short-term and long-term risks include, but are not limited to, cardiovascular issues, liver and kidney health, and impacts on the reproductive system.
- Nutrition and Training: How “gear” use will affect diet protocols.
This episode is sure to spark thought-provoking conversations and provide valuable insights for both those in the fitness and wellness industry and individuals seeking a deeper understanding of anabolic steroid use and its implications.
