I believe that the mixture of all of these hormones and the alcohol have made his mind his thought process askew. what are your thoughts please on this kind of a program thank you program
Brief Answer:
Consultation
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
This type of program is dangerous and much more likely to cause health problems than to prolong life.
He should stop taking these hormones immediately. Alcohol is also a major problem here -- he should see an addiction psychiatrist start getting treatment for alcoholism.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
