There are plenty of myths about hormones—like the idea that testosterone is bad for the heart or that it automatically causes aggression. In truth, many of these issues come from poor diet, stress, and lifestyle factors rather than the hormones themselves. With the right nutrition and regular checkups, hormones can actually play a big role in supporting strength, energy, and overall health.

It also highlights how diet, gut health, and stress all tie into hormone balance. Athletes in particular often need a different approach since their bodies have higher demands. The bottom line: hormones aren’t the problem—it’s how you care for your body that makes the real difference.
