A surprising assessment of former President Trump’s health has emerged, revealing remarkably high testosterone levels for a man over seventy. This observation comes from Dr. Mehmet Oz, now administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, who reviewed the former president’s medical records.
According to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Dr. Oz found Trump’s testosterone levels to be the highest he’d ever encountered in someone of that age. Kennedy shared this detail during a recent podcast interview, describing the former president as being in “incredible health.”
This revelation arrives amidst ongoing scrutiny and speculation regarding Trump’s physical well-being. Concerns have been raised about visible bruising and reports of swelling, fueling questions about his fitness for public life. The White House has consistently refuted these claims, pointing to a demanding schedule and positive medical evaluations.
The contrast between Trump’s lifestyle and Kennedy’s public health advocacy is striking. Kennedy champions a diet rich in whole, unprocessed foods, while Trump openly enjoys fast food, particularly McDonald’s, and frequently consumes Diet Coke. Despite this, Kennedy marvels at Trump’s resilience, stating he possesses “the constitution of a deity.”
Kennedy noted the former president’s penchant for indulging in less-than-healthy choices, especially while traveling and seeking out familiar corporate brands. He expressed bewilderment at Trump’s continued vitality, acknowledging the seeming contradiction between his diet and his robust health.
The White House affirmed Kennedy’s assessment, highlighting Trump’s energetic performance on the golf course and consistently “flawless” physical exam results. A spokesperson emphasized that the former president’s energy levels surpass those of many younger individuals.
The increased attention to Trump’s health mirrors a shift in media focus, particularly when compared to coverage of previous administrations. Concerns about the mental acuity of former President Biden were largely absent until late in his term, a stark difference in the current scrutiny.
Ultimately, Biden chose not to pursue re-election, a decision influenced by mounting pressure from within his own party and media commentators who advocated for a younger candidate. This backdrop further emphasizes the heightened focus on age and health in the political arena.
Trump himself has publicly touted his excellent health, sharing results from cognitive examinations he claims to have “aced” with a perfect score. He asserts that no other president or vice president has been willing to undergo similar testing.
