Distinguished physicians critically review the clinical
consequences of the endocrinological changes that occur with
aging-in both men and women-and examine the use of hormonal therapy
to reduce them. Topics range from bone disease and water balance in
all older people, to androgen deficiency in aging males,
gynecomastia, and menopause. The authors also discuss Type II
diabetes in persons over 65, emphasizing the cognitive benefits of
good glycemia control, and the interaction of nutrition and
metabolism, focusing on hypocholesterolemia, obesity, the anorexia
of aging, trace elements, and vitamins. The aging of the
sympathetic nervous system and its impact on hypertension in the
elderly is also covered. Timely and authoritative, Endocrinology of
Aging offers endocrinologists, geriatricians, and primary care
physicians critical insight into the endocrine problems of our
rapidly growing elderly population.
