Whether you are new to bodybuilding or an experienced athlete, you will have almost certainly heard the term SARMs at some stage in your fitness journey. Short for Selective Androgen-Receptor Modulators, SARMs were first developed in the late 1990s and have gained significant popularity in recent years. 

As with any class of drug, it’s important for all consumers (recreational or professional) to understand both the pros and cons, especially with regard to your long-term health. Here’s all you need to know.

The Long-Term Physical Health Benefits Of SARMs

Selective Androgen-Receptor Modulators are a class of drugs that activate the androgen receptor in specific tissues. They are available as suplementos, stacks, PCT, capsules, and pills while they may be used by male or female fitness enthusiasts.

While SARMS are banned by the Agencia Mundial Antidopaje, they are viewed by many as a safer alternative to anabolic steroids or testosterone boosters due to their short half-life, which ultimately reduces the threat of blood clots as well as reduced testicle size. Crucially they propose to deliver the same benefits as other performance enhances, potentially with even greater results.

Due to the targeted nature of only activating the androgen receptors in certain tissues, it is believed that SARMs exclusively attract “helper cells” in the muscles, which gives them an advantage over testosterone’s indiscriminate approach. Ultimately, then, SARMs may aid your body in the following ways;

  • Improved male fertility. Men with low fertility may be treated with SARMs instead of testosterone to gain the same benefits for heightened sexual health and increased hopes of having a child without the downsides of testosterone.
  • Improved muscle growth. By stimulating anabolism, users can benefit from faster and better muscle growth. This can aid your long-term health by supporting mobility, strength, and injury prevention as well as bone density in later life.
  • Increased mental health. The combination of looking better and feeling more confident in your body’s capabilities can also help with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and sense of self-control.
  • Reduced fat percentage. As well as activating muscle growth, SARMs may improve metabolic weight. A lower body fat percentage will support healthy blood pressure, reduce the threat of diabetes, and potentially extend lifespans.
  • Increased life quality. When SARMs help you finally reach the physical strength and conditioning that you’ve always wanted, it will boost your happiness. When combined with the confidence to be who you want to be, life quality should soar.

Research also suggests that SARMs can be used to manage COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) as well as osteoporosis, anemia, and male hypogonadism. For the latter, as well as male fertility, it is seen as a safer option than enclomiphene.Meanwhile, it has been linked as a possible treatment for estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancers.

However, it should be noted that scientific studies are in their infancy and evidence of the proposed benefits is inconclusive. Still, the possible long-term health benefits of SARMs for medicinal purposes should be monitored by everyone facing those conditions. 

Short-term health benefits like improved recovery from exercise, as well as wounds, may also indirectly support long-term health as there are fewer disruptions to your health journey. 

The Potential Health Risks Of SARMs

SARMs have become increasingly popular for both lean muscle growth and cutting stubborn body fat, not least due to the advantages over alternative muscle growth substances relating to negative health effects. As well as avoiding the threat of blood clots and reduced testicle size, SARMs do not damage the liver like testosterone often does. Similarly, users are far less likely to encounter sleep apnea as a side effect, although some sleep disturbances may still be experienced. 

In fact, randomized controlled trials have shown that SARMs only produce mild and infrequent side effects. Nevertheless, anybody thinking about using SARMs must familiarize themselves with the potential risks., particularly in relation to long-term health effects. The most noteworthy are;

  • Liver injury – albeit significantly reduced compared to other drugs, SARMs may put recreational consumers at risk of drug-induced liver injury due to elevated liver enzymes along with a reduction in HDL cholesterol.
  • Sexual dysfunction – side effects linked to SARMs may include erectile dysfunction, reduced libido, and a loss of sensation or enjoyment. Infertility and miscarriage have also been cited as potential side effects.
  • Stroke and heart disease – the FDA (Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos de EE.UU.) advises that SARMS can increase the risk of heart attack or stroke. This is due to implications on the renin-angiotensin system. 
  • Psychosis – symptoms most commonly characterized as hallucinations have been reported as a potential side effect too. While hallucinations may be a short-term issue, the adverse mental health impacts can last a lifetime.
  • Insulin sensitivity – the long-term impacts of increased insulin sensitivity include but are not limited to polycystic ovarian syndrome, reduced eye health, Alzheimer’s disease, and lipodystrophy syndrome.

While the risks may be reduced compared to alternative muscle growth solutions, it is essential that you understand the potentially permanent impacts on both life quality and quantity. 

Moreover, athletes should be aware of the legal bans for competition. 

Avoiding Health Effects Caused By SARMs

In truth, the scientific understanding of health risks and benefits remains inconclusive. Even so, everyone from beginners to more seasoned fitness enthusiasts should consider the worst-case scenarios and take the necessary precautions to ensure that SARMs remain as safe as possible.

The top tips for using SARMs without causing long-term health effects include;

  • Always know and respect the advised dosage. 
  • Never take SARMs alongside other muscle growth drugs.
  • Be sure to cycle your SARMs as extended periods of using them increase the risks. 
  • Do not take them if competing in a sport.
  • Follow a healthy lifestyle of hydration, nutrition, and exercise.

Of course, you should always keep an eye out for side effects and take action if they do surface.

Above all else, SARMs are lab-created drugs. So, you must ensure that you complete your purchase from a trustworthy and reputable company. Otherwise, you may inadvertently open yourself up to a whole host of additional risks.
