Author: Kevin Cottrell: Nutrition & Fitness, Longevity, Circadian Optimization, Wei December 20, 2017 Duration: 27:46

Health and wellness entrepreneur Alex Fergus has an interesting story to share about his journey to finding better health. Like many Americans, Alex grew up playing several sports throughout his childhood and college years – from competitive rowing to bodybuilding and weight-lifting. At an early age, Alex began suffering the effects of low testosterone and began his journey to transform his life, seek out better health choices, and learn more about healthy lifestyle changes including improving his circadian rhythms, eating healthier, and blocking blue light after sundown.

On today's episode, Alex shares his transformation story, the lifestyle changes he came to realize he needed to make to feel better, live healthier, improve his molecular health and increase his testosterone levels. He explains why he believes he experienced low testosterone and elevated estrogen levels, and why he attributes it to the lifestyle choices he made at an earlier age.
