Accepted Answer

Life's not that way: The goal is to never get diabetes, meaning avoid excess carbs or excess sugars, and be sure to exercise.

Only if a person gets diabetes, not well controlled, or for too many years, should there be big worries of complications.

Question 9

can dhea be used without the side effects of testosterone therapy as stroke heart disease heart attack?

Accepted Answer

DHEA: For men dhea will not be strong enough to replace testosterone deficiency.  However, you are likely low on dhea so taking it will likely benefit you anyways.  Based upon your history, i would recommend that you be evaluated by anti-aging specialist who could shed light on the testosterone controversy as well as talk to you about heart/stroke prevention because it gets a lot more complex.
