They discuss how undernutrition, obesity, and metabolic health shape reproductive hormones; why early menarche and delayed ovulation matter for long-term health; and the surprising connection between your gut microbiome, bile acids, and fertility. If you’ve ever been told to “balance your hormones” with seed cycling, apps, or supplements, this episode separates myths from mechanisms. It’s a masterclass in understanding the science of your hormones and how to truly support reproductive health through every decade of life.

In this highly requested AMA, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon addresses the most critical questions surrounding male hormone health. Dr. Lyon tackles the fear, stigma, and misinformation surrounding Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT), revealing why a low testosterone level is a major predictor of serious health issues like heart disease, bone fracture, and obesity. She breaks down the current medical consensus on TRT, the risks of replacement, the truth about dosing, and what every man over 40 needs to know about their hormone health. This is a must-watch to separate the bodybuilding myths from the medical facts. Chapter Markers 0:00 - Intro: Low Testosterone is a Predictor of Heart Disease 1:12 - The Penile Shrinking Myth: What Caused the Viral Frenzy 2:20 - Testosterone Levels: The Truth About Aging in Men 3:44 - The First Step: What Labs to Ask Your Doctor for 4:22 - Why Men Need to Check Their Estrogen (Estradiol) 6:13 - The Medical Cutoff for Low T and Androgen Sensitivity 7:27 - Low T is Linked to Fatigue, Depression, and Fat Deposition 9:27 - TRT and Cardiovascular Health: Is it Protective or a Risk? 10:36 - Erectile Dysfunction Predicts Heart Attack Within 3-5 Years 12:30 - The Stigma: Why Doctors Don't Check Testosterone 13:00 - TRT vs. Steroids: Defining the Line 14:21 - Infertility and TRT: What You Must Know 15:18 - Safety: What are the Risks of TRT for Men? 16:33 - The Stigma: Why Doctors Don't Treat Low T 17:15 - TRT and Obesity: Treat Concurrently or Wait? 18:10 - Menopause vs. Andropause: Why Men Don't Have to Decline 19:34 - Testosterone Boosters (Ashwagandha, Tongkat Ali) 26:11 - Different Forms of Testosterone Administration 28:09 - Intranasal Testosterone for Less Impact on Fertility 30:38 - Managing Expectations: How Long Until You Feel Better? 33:00 - TRT and Muscle Gain: The Highs and Lows of Dosing 36:47 - The Win-Win: Low Risk, High Reward 39:00 - Blood Flow & Erectile Function: Cialis and Exercise 40:17 - Semen Quality as a Marker for Overall Male Health 41:29 - Parenting and the Cost of Unhealthy Humans 41:45 - How to Raise Testosterone Naturally (The Pillars) 42:29 - Low-Dose Cialis for Cardiovascular Health (Preemptive Strategy) 43:59 - Dr. Lyon's TRT Journey and Early Concerns 46:00 - Outro Key Takeaways: Low Testosterone is a major health risk . Low T is linked to an increased risk of bone fracture, heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. TRT is often protective. Contrary to the long-standing myth, replacing low testosterone to a healthy range does not increase the risk of cardiac events. It is, in fact, protective against cardiovascular disease. Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a canary in the coal mine. ED can predict a heart attack within 3 to 5 years. Men can maintain high T levels. Testosterone levels in a healthy 75-year-old can be just as good as in a man in his 20s. The solution is often concurrent. For an obese or overweight man with low T, concurrent treatment with TRT and a lifestyle intervention is often the most responsible approach to provide the motivation needed for weight loss. Low-dose daily Cialis (2.5mg to 5mg) may be a viable preemptive strategy for cardiovascular health due to its blood flow benefits.

Want ad-free episodes, exclusives and access to community Q&As? Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.com In this episode, I sit down with nutritional physiologist and friend Nick Barringer, PhD, to tackle a crucial, yet often misunderstood, topic: women's hormonal health. We expose the devastating impact of the Women's Health Initiative study and why millions of women are left untreated for menopause symptoms, leading to an increased risk of issues like osteoporosis and Alzheimer's.

In a powerful episode of the Dr. Gabrielle Lyon show, I sit down with my mentor, Dr. Donald Layman, to directly address some of the most common protein myths. We react to a controversial clip from the Huberman Lab podcast with Dr. Christopher Gardner, offering a different perspective on the conversation about protein intake, metabolic science, and dietary guidelines. Dr. Layman, a pioneer in protein research, breaks down the outdated science behind the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), the flaws of nitrogen balance studies, and why a protein-conscious approach is crucial for your long-term health, not just for building muscle. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who wants to cut through the confusion and understand what the science really says about protein, from its role in metabolism to why a grain-based diet may be leaving you deficient.

In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Tobias Kohler, a professor of urology at the Mayo Clinic, to discuss a topic most people are afraid to talk about: men's sexual health. Dr. Kohler shares eye-opening insights, backed by over two decades of clinical experience and research, on the powerful link between foundational health habits and male sexual function. They reveal why erectile dysfunction is a critical "check engine light" for heart disease and how building muscle and exercising can improve not just your erections, but your overall longevity. This conversation goes beyond simple fixes, providing actionable, science-based information that every man needs to hear. Looking to go deeper with The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show?

Erections: A “Check Engine Light” for Your Health One of the most striking points from the discussion was Dr. Kohler’s perspective on erectile dysfunction (ED). He described it not just as a sexual problem, but as one of the earliest "check engine lights" for heart disease. The blood vessels leading to the penis are much smaller than those in the heart. As we age, plaque can build up in these vessels. This process, known as atherosclerosis, affects the smaller vessels first. This means if you're experiencing persistent issues with erections, it's a strong indicator that you may have vascular problems that could soon affect your heart. As Dr. Kohler put it, "If the penis is failing, you should assume you're going to have problems with your heart soon until proven otherwise." The good news is that anything good for your heart—like exercise and a healthy diet—is also good for your penis. The "Use-It-or-Lose-It" Organ The conversation also tackled the surprising phenomenon of penile shortening. When the penis goes into a "garage" for an extended period—meaning there is a consistent lack of erections—it can lose length. Dr. Kohler shared that a consistent lack of erections for just three months can lead to a loss of 1-2 centimeters in length due to the formation of scar tissue. This is why he calls the penis a "use-it-or-lose-it" organ. The key to maintaining penile health is to exercise the penis through erections, and tools like a vacuum erection device can be used for penile rehabilitation. Muscle Mass, Testosterone, and Sexual Function For many men, this is where the conversation gets personal. Dr. Kohler highlighted the direct correlation between muscle mass and erectile quality. Studies show that men with more muscle mass have better erections and higher testosterone levels. The reverse is also true: men with less muscle mass often have lower testosterone, lower libido, and worse erections. In fact, a modest 10% decrease in body weight can be as effective as ED medication in improving erections. Regular exercise also plays a huge role. Dr. Kohler cited a study that found 150 minutes of exercise per week decreased the rate of ED by 20%, while 300 minutes decreased it by nearly 40%. The takeaway is clear: if you want to improve your sexual function and overall longevity, you have to move iron and get strong. The Pillars of Health and the Point of No Return Dr. Kohler emphasized that before considering surgical options like a penile implant, men should focus on the foundational pillars of health: diet, exercise, sleep, and stress mitigation. These core tenants are the first line of defense against ED and other chronic diseases.

Muscle health isn’t just about how much protein you eat—it’s about how your body uses it. And for people with obesity or advancing age, that process can become less effective, even with optimal nutrition. In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Nick Burd, one of the world’s leading researchers in muscle metabolism, to unpack the concept of anabolic resistance—when muscle doesn’t respond normally to protein and/or exercise. Together, we explore how aging, obesity and even the way foods are combined on your plate can impact muscle remodeling, recovery, and growth. Dr. Burd also shares why plant-based proteins often fall short, why protein efficiency matters more than quantity, and how endurance and resistance training affect nutrient use differently. You’ll learn: What anabolic resistance is—and why it matters How to improve protein efficiency and muscle quality over time Why food matrix, and timing can change your results Key differences in nutrition strategies for endurance vs. strength athletes Whether you're focused on longevity, performance, or helping someone break through a plateau, this episode delivers the research-backed information you’ve been looking for. Who is Dr. Nick Burd? Dr. Nick A. Burd is a muscle-metabolism scientist and professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he leads the Nutrition & Exercise Performance Research Group.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Ty Beal—global nutrition researcher and Senior Technical Specialist at the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN)—to uncover the hidden epidemic of micronutrient deficiencies worldwide. From food access and affordability to ultra-processed diets and nutrient bioavailability, we explore how modern food systems are failing billions and what needs to change to truly make the world healthier. We cover: Why 3 billion people can’t afford a healthy diet—and how that affects nutrient status The most common global and U.S. micronutrient deficiencies (and why they’re often overlooked) Why women and children are especially vulnerable during pregnancy, infancy, and adolescence The role of ultra-processed foods in displacing nutrient-rich options How bioavailability, anti-nutrients, and the “food matrix” impact your real nutrient intake Why plant-based diets aren’t always safer—and the hidden risks of nutrient shortfalls The science behind biofortification, food system reform, and why animal-source foods stil matter What the U.S. gets wrong about food guidelines, global trade, and nutritional equity Whether you care about maternal health, child development, or just making better nutrition decisions, this is a vital conversation about nutrient density, food justice, and global health. Who is Dr. Ty Beal? Dr. Ty Beal is a Senior Technical Specialist and global nutrition scientist at the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) where he leads research on global food systems, nutrient inadequacy, and diet quality. His work bridges science and policy to help address the world’s most pressing nutrition challenges—especially among vulnerable populations.

In today's episode, I had the chance to speak to muscle physiology researcher and science communicator Dr. Lauren Colenso-Semple. Together, we unpack the common claims around hormones and training—from whether you should change your workouts based on your cycle, to the real effects of fasted cardio and birth control on performance and muscle growth. We also explore how menopause affects body composition, what the science actually supports when it comes to training differences between men and women, and why some of the most persistent myths about women’s physiology are based more on assumption than evidence. What You’ll Learn: Why women’s physiology is not a limitation for building muscle Whether training around your menstrual cycle or avoiding fasted workouts is necessary The truth about oral contraceptives and their impact on performance, hypertrophy, and strength How menopause affects body composition—and what you can do about it Why consistency and progressive overload matter more than hormone fluctuations How much protein and resistance training women actually need—and when to eat it This conversation is for every woman who’s been told her physiology is too complicated to train effectively. It’s not. The science is finally catching up—and Lauren is helping lead the charge.

Nelson Vergel’s story is one of resilience, perseverance, and an unrelenting drive to defy the odds. In the mid-1980s, he was handed what many would have considered a death sentence—an HIV diagnosis at a time when there were no effective treatments, no clear answers, and little hope.

Misinformation in nutrition is rampant. From demonizing red meat to hyping plant-based diets, conflicting advice has left many people confused about what’s truly evidence-based. In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Bradley Johnston , an expert in evidence-based nutrition and public health policies, to separate fact from fiction. With nearly 200 peer-reviewed publications, Dr. Johnston has challenged conventional wisdom—including recommendations from major organizations like the World Health Organization. He shares how evidence-based practices should guide our dietary choices, the importance of systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and how cognitive biases influence the research we trust. Key Points: How evidence-based guidelines are formed—and why they sometimes change The three pillars of evidence-based practice and why patient values matter Why most nutrition studies aren’t as strong as we think—and how to critically evaluate them What the best available research actually says about dietary patterns for longevity The role of AI in research and whether it’s a help or hindrance to scientific rigor If you’ve ever questioned dietary guidelines, nutrition headlines, or conflicting health advice, this episode is a must-listen. Get ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about nutrition. Who is Dr. Bradley Johnston? Dr. Bradley Johnston is an Associate Professor at Texas A&M University, specializing in evidence-based nutrition, and the methodology of patient-reported outcomes, randomized clinical trials, systematic reviews, and clinical and public health practice guidelines. With a PhD in experimental medicine from the University of Alberta and post-doctoral training in evidence-based practice, epidemiology and biostatistics from Oxford and McMaster University, his research focuses on advancing human health research methodology to improve clinical and dietary practice recommendations and public health policies. He co-leads EvidenceBasedNutrition.org and NutriRECS, develops nutrition education resources (e.g. Nutrition Users’ Guides), and currently serves as Co-Chair of the Canadian Pediatric Obesity Management Guidelines, ensuring clinical and public health guidelines are backed and transparently supported by the best available evidence, including end user values and preferences, absolute estimates of effect and the certainty of evidence for estimates of effect. His overall aim is to empower patients, clients and members of the public to make fully-informed health care decisions based on the central tenets of evidence-based practice and policy.

Innovating Women’s Health In this episode of The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show, I sit down with the incredible Cindy Eckert—serial entrepreneur, founder of Sprout Pharmaceuticals, and the driving force behind Addyi (commonly known as “the female Viagra”). Cindy shares her groundbreaking journey in advocating for women’s sexual health, challenging the medical system, and fighting for equal treatment in medicine. Cindy reveals the startling double standards between male and female sexual health, recounting her experiences bringing Addyi to market and navigating the resistance she faced. Together, we dive deep into why women’s pleasure, health, and biology have been historically overlooked and undervalued, and why now more than ever, the conversation must change. Key highlights: Why women deserve proof and evidence-based treatments The untold challenges behind bringing Addyi (the female Viagra) to market How we can change the conversation around women’s health If you want to learn more about the untold truths of women’s health and why this conversation is so critical, hit play and join us for this powerful discussion. Who is Cindy Eckert? Cindy Eckert is a self-made serial entrepreneur and fierce advocate for women, known for her bold leadership and mission to empower female entrepreneurs through her Pinkubator. Over her 24-year career in healthcare, Cindy has built and sold two companies for over $1.5 billion, including Sprout Pharmaceuticals, which introduced the first FDA-approved drug for low sexual desire in women, often called "female Viagra." After selling Sprout for $1 billion, she fought to reclaim the drug and relaunched it on her own terms. Cindy’s work, widely featured in major media, focuses on creating mission-driven companies with a profound impact, and she is committed to helping others achieve success. What is ADDYI? ADDYI is for premenopausal women with acquired, generalized hypoactive (low) sexual desire disorder who have not had problems with low sexual desire in the past, and who have low sexual desire no matter the type of sexual activity, the situation or the sexual partner. The low sexual desire is troubling to them and is not due to a medical or mental health problem, problems in the relationship or medicine or other drug use. ADDYI is not for use in men or to enhance sexual performance. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is increased if you drink 1-2 standard alcoholic drinks close in time to your ADDYI dose. Wait at least 2 hours after drinking before taking ADDYI at bedtime. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is also increased if you take certain prescription, over the counter or herbal medications, or have liver problems. Low blood pressure and fainting can happen when you take ADDYI even if you don’t drink alcohol or take other medicines. Do not take if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in ADDYI. Allergic reactions may include hives, itching or trouble breathing. Sleepiness, sometimes serious, can occur. Common side effects include dizziness, nausea, tiredness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep and dry mouth.

This special episode is a solocast for me to personally introduce to you my new book, Forever Strong: A New Science Based Strategy for Aging . I'm so excited to share it with you. It took two years and 20 years of experience to bring you the information in these pages. You cannot correct a problem if the foundation and framework for thinking of that problem is wrong.

In my book, I give you exactly what to do, exactly how you need to think about things, and what you need to execute. This concept of obesity pained me to the point that everything in this book, and what I talk about, is to change the trajectory of your life.
