The Double Whammy of Aging: Testosterone + GLP-1

The aging process is defined by two key factors: the loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) and the accumulation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT), which drive chronic inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and cellular aging. This “double whammy of aging” contributes to declines in physical function, vitality, and overall health, significantly impacting the quality of life. In this presentation, I will explore how testosterone and GLP-1 receptor agonists work synergistically to address these aging markers. Testosterone enhances lean muscle mass, improves insulin sensitivity, and restores energy levels, while GLP-1 therapies effectively reduce VAT, decrease inflammation, and optimize metabolic health. Together, these therapies represent a paradigm shift in age management medicine. The lecture will provide robust scientific evidence to support these claims, offering attendees actionable insights into utilizing these interventions to combat aging and improve patient outcomes.
