Message From Dr. Minkoff
Do you have low T?
It’s very common.
I saw two men just this week with testosterones in the low 300 range.
Terrible.
That is not normal and it can be handled.
Did you know that the official measurement of what is considered to be normal testosterone levels has been lowered?
It has. And this was done because the majority of men no longer fall into the earlier acceptable ranges.
Their testosterone levels are too low.
And this is a problem.
We know testosterone plays a large role in muscle bulk and strength, as well as fat-burning — in both men and women.
Normal testosterone levels give men that chiseled look, high energy levels, and strength. And in women we see more definition, muscle, and energy.
But it does much more.
Higher testosterone levels give smoother, firmer skin, and have a significant anti-aging effect.
And they also affect our mood. There is an idea that higher testosterone levels can make a man more angry or irritable, but it’s actually the opposite. Lower levels make men feel more anxious, irritable and depressed.
Higher, normal levels lead to a calmer, more even-keeled mood. And they play a very large role in overall health as well.
But, while most people think lowering testosterone levels are just a part of getting older — and they are to a degree — there’s actually much more going on here.
Testosterone levels, even in young men, have been dropping for decades now.
This isn’t “dropping as one gets older.” This is a man in his 30s today having lower average testosterone levels than a man in his 30s forty years ago.
That’s why LabCorp, the largest medical testing company, lowered their standards for what are considered “normal” testosterone levels. Too many men no longer fit into the earlier known healthy levels.
But why, instead of rolling up our sleeves and finding the cause of lowered testosterone levels are we just pretending that lower levels are healthy and normal now?
Here at LifeWorks we don’t.
We can do something about it.
Call us now to get an evaluation and get your T up to where it should be.
You will be happy you did!
Yours in health,

Patient Testimonial
“I highly and personally recommend LifeWorks Wellness Center!
Let me start by saying I love my wife! It seems we have always done things together. Getting healthy and staying healthy has always been one of those things we did together. My journey started with making changes to feel better with my wife. We have tried many things to improve our overall health. We choose a vegan lifestyle for about 2 years went gluten and dairy free many years ago. However without the right information some of our choices did not fix our underlying health issues in fact many of the changes although good made things worse. After seeing my wife go through some challenges with her health I decided to get checked out mainly because I didn’t feel great.
I was diagnosed with elevated prostate #s in the high 27-29 normal is 0-4. My local Dr wanted me to get a consult with a specialist and get a biopsy. I knew messing with cancer can cause it to spread and I was not comfortable with that. I also learned traditional treatments can cause many side effects for a man & decided to look for other options. I tried a round of antibiotics and some supplements for 3-6 months with no results. Eventually I looked up natural solutions to prostate and bladder inflammation/cancer. I found Lifeworks & Dr Minkoff online and did some research, read some reviews and scheduled an appointment. While I was there I had testing done in addition to prostate issues I had multiple other issues related to mold toxicity, low testosterone/ hormone levels, leaky gut & a couple of other issues. Dr Iyer thoroughly explained what was seen under the microscope of my blood. She also explained the protocol for healing & why she performed certain meridian testing. These test were latter confirmed by blood work that was taken at the time of the initial examination. We were so impressed by the level of care I received we decided to have my wife get tested as well because she had been suffering from pain, was tiered all the time & just seemed to be getting worse even though she had been through so much to find a solution. She was tested the next day and it turned out she had undiagnosed lime disease (previously she had 2 negative lime disease blood test) and many other conditions. We both decided to get the care recommended. Today is almost 5 months after the initial consultation ( we have been home a little over a month & I am symptom free and my energy level is back to where it was 10-15 years ago. The best part is my wife and best friend is also feeling great after she completed her treatments. Now we get to maintain our healthy choices together & take on a new adventure.”
