Dilated cardiomyopathy is the most common form of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. It occurs more frequently in men than in women, and is most common between the ages of 20 and 60 years. About one in three cases of congestive heart failure (CHF) is due to dilated cardiomyopathy.
Testosterone directly effects muscle growth by binding to receptors on the surface of muscle cells and amplifying the biochemical signals in muscle tissue that result in protein synthesis. Testosterone also increases levels of another growth factor, called growth hormone, that the body releases in response to exercise. Like testosterone, growth hormone increases protein synthesis and can result in increased muscle growth.
A great muscle-building supplement should aid this process in such a way that: 1  It naturally increases testosterone production and human growth hormone. 2  It raises the bodyâs insulin sensitivity, allowing for maximum anabolic growth. 3  It decreases estrogen levels to reduce fat storage.  It lowers cortisol to speed recovery and prevent muscle loss.
