A Comprehensive Guide to the Medical Use of Anabolic Therapies, Nutrition and Exercise for HIV+ Men and Women

With over 330 scientific references, this book provides a comprehensive guide to the medical use of anabolic steroids, growth hormone, supplementation, optimal nutrition, and exercise to prevent and treat the loss of lean body mass and body alterations experienced by people with HIV. The authors effectively detail how to use nutrition, anabolic hormones, nutritional supplements, and exercise in combination to improve lean body, quality of life mass and overall health in HIV. The book also reviews therapies for body changes related to lipodystrophy and facial wasting in HIV. This book is a great guide for patients and physicians who want to learn more about these therapies. People would also like to read Nelson Vergel's latest book (Aug 2011) called "Testosterone: A Man's Guide" for updated information about the medical use of that hormone. There is also a Spanish translation available called "Fortalecete y Vive" available on powerusa.org
