“I Get Paranoid. My Gut Starts Sticking Out” – Joe Rogan Clarifies His Health Scare After Concerns Raised on HGH Abuse From Podcaster

Is Joe Rogan‘s health condition okay? The firebrand podcaster has been on the news lately, not because of his podcasts or commentary, but because of his huge bubble gut. Joe Rogan was on the commentary team for UFC 300, and during the event, the entire team took a photo together. However, the fans witnessed something peculiar about Rogan’s belly. It was protruding, which is abnormal, to say the least.

The multi-millionaire podcaster is an ardent fitness enthusiast, but even Rogan takes some sup͏p͏l͏ements to keep himself in shape. O͏ne suc͏h supplement is Human G͏rowt͏h Horm͏o͏ne (HGH). According to the community, the usage of this ͏͏supplement mi͏ght be the cause of Rogan’s bubble gut (Palumboism). B͏ut͏ after days of anticipation, Joe ͏Rog͏an has finally ͏co͏me͏ out t͏o give us an update about his health.

Joe Rogan was worried about his belly post-UFC 300

While having a conversation with stand-up comic and host of “The Solid Show” podcast, Deric Poston, Rogan explained that he was worried about his health when he saw his picture from UFC 300. He emphasized that he still considers himself to be fat despite being fit. “I get fat. I’m pretty lean right now. I’m under 200, which is rare. Wow, I’m like 197, which is nice. But I’ve just been real clean on the diet the last few weeks,” said Joe Rogan.

He further added, “Last few weeks, I just, I started getting a little fat. I start feeling a little bit of this, and I start paranoid. My gut starts sticking out. I would get it straight to the gut ’cause I have pretty thick abs too, yeah? So, any fat that goes on top of this right here, bar, yeah, it gets gross and it pokes out right here, yeah, and just starts looking gross.”

Rogan, however, never explained what ͏caused his protracted belly. Further down in the conversation, the podcaster added that his gluttony͏ ͏might act as the catalyst for his weight gain. “I eat so much food, bro. I eat so much food! It’s crazy how much I eat. I’m a glutton, like a real glutton.” Nonetheless, it must also be noted that a high dosage of HGH is harmful for human physique.

A high dosage of HGH will have side effects on one’s body ranging from joint and muscle pain to enlargement of breast tissue. However, Rogan has stated that he takes a minimal amount of HGH which does not affect him adversely but the reality might be something completely different. In addition to HGH, Rogan uses another trick to stay fit.

Rogan takes Testosterone Replacement Therapy

In addition to HGH, Joe Rogan employs another procedure that keeps his energy high and that is TRT or Testosterone Replacement Therapy. To summarise the procedure, it is a treatment for men with low testosterone levels. It involves supplementing testosterone through methods like injections or patches to alleviate symptoms such as fatigue and low libido. The 56-year-old podcaster states that this technique has helped him to do things which were physically impossible to do for him at his age.

Rogan has been using this therapy since his forties. While having a conversation on ‘JRE’, the Austin resident explained the importance of the use of TRT.“Regardless of a well-balanced diet and solid exercise regimen, your body changes as you age, and your hormone and testosterone levels naturally decline approximately one percent per year (1). “[TRT] makes a big difference. It’s real simple. If you’re fine with not feeling good—good! If you’re not fine with it, hormone replacement therapy exists for a reason, and that reason is it makes you feel way better.”

Well, taking TRT has its pros and cons. However, one might note that Rogan changed his lifestyle drastically to take these therapies and supplements. Nonetheless, what’s your take on Joe Rogan’s supplements usage? State your thoughts in the comments below.
