I am considering adding a supplement to my daily intake. This would be T Bomb testosterone supplement due to issues of obesity, sleep apnea, low testosterone production due to the aforementioned issues.

Basically, while I know many would advise against this for a multitude of reasons, I need to know if this use would stiffle my weight loss. The supplement clearly states that it can assist in fat burning and "muscle weight gain."

I am not weight training for bulk, but fitness and aerobic benefit. Again, would the use of this product negatively effect my desire to lose weight if I am not training for muscle bulk?

It wont negatively effect your fat loss, no.

It's not the best idea though, and you know that or you wouldn't have mentioned that you know we will advise against it. My only suggestion is that you talk to a doctor first before you start it. Good luck with either way you decide to go.

Thanks. I thought that it would not affect my fat loss. And yes, I know the issues associated with taking testosterone supplements. Trying weigh the cost/risk before proceeding. You were helpful.

Testosterone is easily converted to estrogen in the body. So while you may be taking testosterone, provided that it lasts through digestion (which is unlikely due to the pH of the gut), it may or may not act like testosterone once its available for use.

I strongly urge you to talk to your doctor before starting the supplements. The issues your have that are causing you to want to try the supplements can be treated in other ways and that might be a healthier alternative. Granted, I'm far from a medical expert, but if you are suffering from sleep apnea, that alone can cause a multitude of other issues.

I think a good solid medical opinion is worth getting, then you can truly make an informed opinion with all the positives and negatives in hand.

Most significantly overweight people have a form of sleep apnea. It normally goes away by simply losing the weight.

If you lose the weight, you will be less bothered by sleep apnea, and getting more sleep will let your body go back to producing a normal amount of testosterone. It may take longer, but its a much healthier way to go about it than just taking the supplement.

If I was a man that reason alone would scare the crap out of me.



I agree with the others check with your doctor.

I am a man, and that is quite concerning Personal feelings on it is you should never take a hormone supplement that is not controlled by a doctor. There is such a fine balance in the human body that can go oh so wrong if mishandled.

Ever seen Fight Club? Two words "***** tits" maybe the visual image will help with your decision. There are other far less drastic treatments for sleep apnea - like a CPAP machine
