  • Testosterone & TRT: Black Box Warning
    Jun 2 2025

    You don't see this very often! The FDA has REMOVED a "black box warning" from testosterone products used in TRT and other hormone therapies. The FDA uses box warnings when there is serious concern about a potential side effect. Seeing one removed is almost completely unheard of!

    Joey and Dante break down all the details on what's changing, the research behind it, and what it means for the millions of men using testosterone replacement therapy.

  • The Zero Calcium Score Danger
    May 12 2025

    When a doctor suspects plaque build-up in the arteries and vessels of a patient's heart, a non-invasive CT scan will often be used to detect the presence of calcium. That results are represented as a Calcium Score (Coronary Artery Calcium or CAC).

    So if the results come back and you have a low or even zero CAC, you're safe, right? Unfortunately, it's not that easy. Dante has the details based on a listener question.

    Joey gives us details on a product with a VERY specific use: Prenatal Complete with DHA! Creating life is not the time to use just any old prenatal, and Joey explains the details of why ours is worth the investment!
