Suzanne Somers is 73 and has been married to her 83-year-old husband, Alan Hamel, for 43 years. The last time we heard anything about Suzanne (we linked it, we didnt cover it) she was posing in her birthday suit, for her birthday. The photo was taken by her husband. Apparently the spark has not gone out of their marriage at all. Suzanne told The Daily Mail that she and her husband get shots once a week of some peptide and that it puts them in the mood to have sex twice a day. Theyre also both on hormone replacements. Ok. Suzanne has multiple health and wellness books out including a new one coming in January.
Suzanne Somers is lifting the lid on her active sex life and the sex shot that keeps her and her producer husband Alan Hamel tearing off each others clothes twice a day after nearly 43 years of marriage.
For decades, the actress, 73, has hailed bioidentical hormone replacement therapy as her fountain of youth. Now, her love-making sessions with Alan, 83, are getting a boost with shots of PT-141, a melanocortin based peptide used to generate sexual arousal.
Im kind of in that groove, like when you were younger and youre in the mood all the time, and so is he because hes on hormone replacements, she told DailyMail.com.
Suzanne and Alan take bioidentical hormones, or hormones made from plants, to replace whatever their bodies are lacking, according to their lab work.
The ThighMaster icon added shots of PT-141 to their routine after learning it is a sexual stimulant that works on your brain.
I thought, Wow, what a great thing. Because men have had Viagra, but this is actually a shot for both men and women thats not a drug, she explained.
It just stimulates that part of your brain that says, Hey, Im kind of in the mood. And, so, isnt that a wonderful thing? And its not a drug, so I love it.
The Threes Company star said she and Alan take a shot of PT-141 about once a week, and while many of their contemporaries can barely get out of bed, theyre having sex twice a day.
I usually say I sleep through one of them. Thats usually that one at 4 oclock in the morning, she joked. But, you know, then again around 8 oclock in the morning, Im in the mood.
It doesnt hurt that Suzanne and Alan have had a magnetic connection since the moment they first met in a television studio 50 years ago.
Oh, hes just so beautiful, she gushed. I had sex with him on our very first date just in case there wasnt a second one. I just wanted to be with him that first time.
Her fears were unfounded, as they ended up getting married and merging their two families while continuing to have plenty of sex. Suzanne has a son, Bruce, with her first husband Bruce Somers, while Alan has a son, Stephen, and a daughter, Leslie, with his ex-wife Marilyn Hamel
I feel the older I get, the better it is for my brand because Im living the life I write about, she told DailyMail.com. Im living this great love affair, and I walk my talk. So the older I get, the better it is because people go, Well, look what shes done.

Good for them and its nice to hear about an older couple who is still hot for each other after decades. I think when I get to that age Ill be happy with like twice a week, you know? Also on the occasions I?ve had sex twice a day I?ve gotten sore, I?ll say that. You can do that in the beginning of a relationship but indefinitely and consecutively is too much. It?s like eating dessert all day. It is so good in the moment and I would totally do that if it didn?t make me feel awful afterwards. All that said, where can I get this stuff? Does it really work or does it have more of a placebo effect? *googles* Its supposed to work! Ok not regretting I covered this.
Theres more in there about Suzanne choosing to continue to take her hormones against her doctors advice and to not get chemo for her breast cancer. That was her choice, I just question whether its something she should publicize so much.

No one wanted to hear this but Suzanne Somers went onAccess Hollywood Live to debunk Miley Cyrus’ claim that people don’t have sex after 40. Making everyone to vomit in their mouth a little, she told Billy Bush that she has sex twice a day and three times on weekends.
?That would be a Saturday or a Sunday when we?re just hanging around,? Suzanne told Access Hollywood Live?s Billy Bush and Kit Hoover when asked if she and her husband have ?three-fers.? ?I swear to God!?
God, please stop talking. Picturing a 66-year-old bumping real uglies with a 77-year-old is not the direction I wanted my day to go.
Suzanne, a longtime advocate of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, has been married to husband Alan Hamel for 36 years. At 77 years old, Bruce happily keeps up with Suzanne in the bedroom.
?He?s on hormones, I?m on hormones. A healthy person is a sexual person,? she said. ?I mean, think about it ? if you?re sick and don?t feel well, you?re not in the mood for sex.?
Argh. I can’t stop dry heaving now.

Many of you will hate me for that story title, but like something that stinks that we stick in our friends faces, I had to get you to experience my sensory pain. It’s enough to hear that Somers has sex every day, that’s an overshare but it’s something that you can handle without the added “juices” descriptor. She went there, though, while promoting her latest book of quakery, Sexy Forever, to Betty Confidential. She’s all for natural everything, but when it comes to plastic surgery and injectibles she obviously makes an exception.
What are some ways that anyone can feel sexier?…
Hormones, hormones, hormones. Honestly, all women (and men) should read at least one of my books on bioidentical, natural hormones. They are my secret weapons to anti-aging. They promote health and sexuality. They sharpen your brain and strengthen your bones. And there has NEVER been one reported case of cancer by anyone using these hormones.
Describe a typical morning in your life:
Every morning I awaken to the smell of my husband?s delicious strong coffee. While it?s brewing, he goes outside when the weather is nice and picks a lemon off our tree and squeezes a half lemon into a glass of water. It?s a great way to get your liver started for the day. I watch the morning shows, usually news, while I do email, use my Facemaster (my non-surgical facelift machine), take my daily fiber and probiotics — a must for gut health and regularity. I rub on my hormone creams and start taking some of my supplements. My yoga teacher comes four days a week and if it?s an off day I do my own version of yoga, and run in place with the waist strap attached to my EZ GYM. Somewhere in my daily ritual we have delicious sex. We are both on natural hormone replacement and it really stirs up the juices.
Wow! How do you keep things so hot with your hubby after all these years?
We try and not go out more than twice a week but when we do I really enjoy getting all dolled up. We have always had a very romantic, sexy, relationship. We like it that way and we work at it. He emails me love notes when I least expect it and in them he says heart-melting things. I am always aware of the privilege that it is to be doing what I love and having my husband by my side.
[From Betty Confidential]
As far as those “bioidentical” hormones that Somers touts, but it’s worth noting that many professional organizations have come forward to state there’s no evidence whatsoever that they’re safer than traditional hormone therapy. That means that they can probably cause cancer just like traditional hormone therapy and that it’s irresponsible to state that they haven’t.

Suzanne Somers has a controversial new book out, Knockout: Interviews with Doctors Who Are Curing Cancer–And How to Prevent Getting It in the First Place, in which she offers alternative cancer treatments from what she claims are experts who are curing the disease. The book has proven quite popular and is currently #95 on the Amazon bestseller list.
Unfortunately not only are Somer’s claims unproven, they’re also potentially deadly in that she’s steering cancer patients away from traditional treatments. What’s more is that some of her recommendations, including taking bioidentical hormones, have been linked to cancer and may have caused her own cancer, which she treated through a combination of traditional and alternative means. (Somers had a lumpectomy and radiation to treat her breast cancer. She maintains that chemotherapy, which she opted not to use, is deadly.) To add more evidence that Somer’s recommendations are unsafe, many of the experts she profiles in her book have undergone disciplinary action, and one has been on trial for fraud. This isn’t just because they’re touting non-traditional treatments - one guy bilked cancer patients out of their life savings with promises of a miracle cure. None have published any studies showing their methods are effective.
The Daily Beast has an article that lays out all the reasons we should take Somers’ advice with a grain a salt. Some key excerpts are below, but you may want to read the article if you’re at all inclined to follow Somers’ advice. She goes beyond just telling people to eat more natural food and take vitamins and into serious quackery territory.
The former actress has one of the nation?s top books, touting secret cancer cures. But these methods, reports Gerald Posner, may actually increase the disease risk. Specifically, Posner reveals how:
Her book promotes a regimen that many doctors believe causes cancer rather than cures it.
This regimen might have contributed to her own bout with cancer.
Several doctors and experts she uses as the basis for her book have medically checkered backgrounds.
Cancer is a recurring thread and marketing tool for her wide-ranging business interests.
One outside expert, based on his examination of 30 years of photographs, believes she had plastic surgery, which would undercut her reputation for health through alternative medicine.
Bioidentical hormones are just as unsafe and have the same effect as pharmaceutical hormones, which cause cancer
?Bioidentical is a pseudo-scientific term used by Somers and others only as a marketing gimmick,? says Dr. Adriane Fugh-Berman, an Associate Professor in Complementary and Alternative Medicine at Georgetown?s School of Medicine. ?Bioidentical hormones are not natural products; they are synthesized in a laboratory. Bioidentical preparations use exactly the same pharmaceutical hormones that are used in branded hormone preparations.?
That differentiation?or lack thereof?is critical. In 2002, one of the largest-ever medical studies, The Women?s Health Initiative, concluded that estrogen and progesterone, the hormones used by Somers and millions of menopausal aged women, increased the risks of cancer and death rates. In other words, Somers ?cure? might in fact be a cause.
The former actress addresses this issue preemptively in Knockout. ?The report was speaking of synthetic hormones,? writes Somers. She therefore concludes that bioidenticals are safe and natural, noting that they aren?t made by pharmaceutical companies but instead in non-FDA regulated compounding pharmacies as part of customized preparations.
?I?m no friend of the drug companies Somers criticizes,? says Fugh-Berman, who has been a paid expert witness against hormone giant Wyeth, testifying for plaintiffs who had breast cancer. But her own extensive research on bioidenticals found no evidence that they act any differently or are any safer than the conventional hormones tested in the Women?s Health Initiative. ?This is critical to understand,? Fugh-Berman told me. ?There?s actually every reason to believe that bioidentical hormones will have the same risks when it comes to heart disease, blood clots, and breast cancer.?
Somers cites ?over 40 studies showing that bioidentical hormones are safe? but they are all observational studies, not a single one meets the standards for a clinical determination of a drug?s safety profile. Many of the hormones, she says, have been used with great results in Europe for years. She omits, says Fugh-Berman, ?that European studies have shown increased cancer risks. Somers is simply far more dangerous in her pop and inaccurate descriptions of hormones than most any doctor.?
Somers claims bioidentical hormones can cure cancer, but they are likely to cause it, including her own cancer
What infuriates physicians even more than Somers? unproven claims of safety and health benefits is that in Knockout she proclaims that bioidentical hormone replacement is protective against cancer. She writes that ?[they] offer protection against breast cancer, but no one, has connected the dots,? and that using testosterone ?can protect and prevent cancer, especially prostate cancer.?
?It?s exactly the opposite,? says Fugh-Berman. ?Estrogen alone can cause uterine cancer. That risk can be reduced by adding a progestagen, but that increases the risk of breast cancer. Somers thinks they are safe despite the fact that she developed breast cancer while on them, and later developed endometrial hyperplasia (abnormal uterine cell growth), which led to a hysterectomy. Both are known side effects of hormone therapy.? Parikh adds that human growth hormone, which Somers injects daily, has also been linked to increased cancer risks.
?That she possibly aided and abetted her own cancer should have destroyed her credibility,? says Dr. Nanette Santoro, the Director of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at New York?s Albert Einstein College of Medicine. ?The real miracle is her ability to continue to pitch her theories.?
Somers blames her breast cancer on other medications, including birth control pills she took for many years. But she admits that her hysterectomy was likely due to an incorrect dosage of bioidenticals.
Some of Somer’s experts are dangerous quacks
A review of the doctors and experts in Knockout by The Daily Beast reveals that many do not fare better.
Two of the most important are Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski and Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez. Somers appeared with them last week on Larry King. In Knockout, Somers writes that the 66-year-old Burzynski is ?an internationally recognized physician and scientist? [who] is to be celebrated for his accomplishments as a brave and courageous pioneer.? She claims he?s had ?consistent successes with cancers of the brain, breast, head and neck, prostrate, colon, lungs, ovaries, as well as non-Hodgkin?s lymphoma.?
Burzynski has a medical degree from Lublin, Poland. Without any clinical cancer research experience, he announced in 1976 he had discovered a cure for cancer based on an assumption that he could use amino acids?that he called antineoplastons?to cause spontaneous regression of cancer. He set up a clinic in Houston and began dispensing his ?cure? to cancer patients. The FDA tried stopping him, even seeking a federal injunction.
In 1995, Burzynski was charged with a multi-count indictment, mostly for mail fraud and shipping unapproved drugs across state lines. The jury deadlocked, and the judge dismissed most of the government?s counts before acquitting Burzynski of one remaining charge and ordering the FDA to allow Burzynski to conduct limited clinical trials. A review of the 60 trials connected to antineoplastons completed since then reveals no substantive results for their patients. ?And those patients are desperate [so] it?s an ethical issue,? says Dr. Otis Brawley, a practicing oncologist who is the American Cancer Society?s Chief Medical Officer. ?Most doctors don?t believe it?s proper to charge a patient for experimental treatments where there is no evidence of benefits.?
Burzynski ?s clinic doesn?t charge for the medication?as its experimental ? but does for everything else, averaging $9,000 weekly. Dr. Keith Black, chairman of Cedar Sinai?s Department of Neurosurgery, estimates that since the clinic opened 33 years ago, Burzynski has treated 8,000 patients for an average of $60,000 each?a whopping $480 million.
Somers also touts New York City?s Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez, whose ?results are impressive.? Gonzalez has refined a natural cancer treatment originally created in the 1960s by an offbeat Grapevine, Texas dentist. Gonzalez, who has no oncology training, insists that cancer can be eliminated if major organs are detoxified. His therapy involves everything from twice-a-day coffee enemas, yogurt, dried beans, and megavitamin supplements (up to 175 pills daily). He believes that pancreatic enzymes seek out and kill cancer cells. In August 2009, the Journal of Clinical Oncology published the results of an eight-year controlled study of 55 pancreatic cancer patients. Those who chose chemo lived more than three times as long and had better quality of life than those who used Gonzalez?s protocol.
Some of the other doctors or experts cited by Somers in Knockout also raise sometimes unsettling questions upon closer examination. One has been investigated by the Nevada medical board two dozen times and a medical board investigator dubbed him, ?one of the five most serious offenders in the state;? he pleaded guilty once to excessive billing for tests and services, but was acquitted in 2006 of illegally importing human growth hormone from Israel. Another was fired from Sloan-Kettering after the hospital cited his failure “to properly discharge his most basic job responsibilities,” although he claims it was because he ?had broken ranks with the party line? about traditional cancer therapies.” A third was accused of lying about being a doctor on a patent office application. He did get the patent but has not responded in two years to the charge about the doctor?s degree, a title he no longer uses. Another suggests that ?an epidemic of hepatitis, AIDS, venereal diseases and highly resistant tuberculosis? was part of a ?nefarious? Soviet program about which the U.S. government and media knew, and did nothing.

The article also quotes a plastic surgeon who states the obvious - Somers has had a lot of work done to her mug despite her claim that she only uses Botox. “I am fairly certain that she has had a face lift, some fillers, and eyelid surgery,” says Dr. Sherrell Aston. It’s hypocritical to say the least to deny plastic surgery yet claim you have the secret to wellness and longevity.
I’m all for safe, alternative treatments in additional to traditional medicine and I do take a few supplements and try to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables for my health. Somer’s claims are irresponsible, though, and she is being rightfully called out. The problem is that she may have be right about a few things in additional to all her her dangerous recommendations. Those that would be inclined to agree with her on the side effects of traditional medical options might be opting out of treatments that could help prolong their lives.
Remember how Somers criticized Patrick Swayze’s chemotherapy treatment for pancreatic cancer? She said “They took a beautiful man [and] put poison in his body. Why couldn?t they have built him up nutritionally and gotten rid of the toxins?” Swayze had state of the art targeted radiation, called CyberKnife surgery, at Stanford University Cancer Center. He also had aggressive chemotherapy and took a drug called vatalanib. (Here’s more on Swazye’s treatment from WebMD.) As stated in the article above, an eight-year study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology found “those [pancreatic cancer patients] who chose chemo lived more than three times as long and had better quality of life than those who used Gonzalez?s protocol.” Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez is the supposed pancreatic cancer expert that Somers touts in her book.

Suzanne Somers is promoting an incredibly dangerous message according to many medical professionals and the American Cancer Society. In her latest book she argues that chemotherapy does not work for most cancers and that patients should turn to alternative medicine instead. This is something she?s believed for a long time ? when she had breast cancer ten years ago, she chose to undergo radiation along with a lumpectomy. Since she?s doing okay, that?s evidence to Somers that chemotherapy is unnecessary for breast cancer. She also recently said that chemo killed Patrick Swayze, not pancreatic cancer.
Somers has some very extreme views on the lengths she?ll go to in order to remain looking and feeling young and healthy. She messes around with complex bioidentical hormones and pops over 60 pills a day. In January she was on Oprah espousing her ideals, and frankly she came off as a whack job. I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt at the time, but in hindsight I should not have. She?s careful about phrasing things in terms of ?this is just what I think I should do, you have to make your own choice,? but saying things like chemo kills, not cancer, shows that?s not what she really believes.
And health professionals are saying she?s downright dangerous. Here are some excerpts from the Huffington Post?s article about Somers? medical advice.
Suzanne Somers is at it again. Less than a year after the former sitcom actress frustrated mainstream doctors (and cheered some fans) by touting bioidentical hormones on “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” she’s back with a new book. This one’s on an even more emotional topic: Cancer treatment. Specifically, she argues against what she sees as the vast and often pointless use of chemotherapy.
Somers, who has rejected chemo herself, seems to relish the fight. “Cancer’s an epidemic,” said the 63-year-old actress in an interview in a Manhattan hotel a day before Tuesday’s release of “Knockout,” her 19th book. “And yet we keep going back to the same old pot, because it’s all we’ve got. Well, this is a book about options. “I’m ‘us’,” Somers adds. “I’m not them. I’ve been on the other side of the bed. And it’s powerful to have information.” The American Cancer Society is concerned.
“I am very afraid that people are going to listen to her message and follow what she says and be harmed by it,” says Dr. Otis Brawley, the organization’s chief medical officer. “We use current treatments because they’ve been proven to prolong life. They’ve gone through a logical, scientific method of evaluation. I don’t know if Suzanne Somers even knows there IS a logical, scientific method.”
More broadly, Brawley is concerned that in the United States, celebrities or sports stars feel they can use their fame to dispense medical advice. “There’s a tendency to oversimplify medical messages,” he says. “Well, oversimplification can kill.”
?Somers is now hoping for a return invitation to Winfrey’s hugely influential stage to discuss her cancer book. Her theories on chemotherapy did get one bit of attention she could have done without, though: The actress had to apologize recently when her offhand comment that chemo had likely killed actor Patrick Swayze, rather than his pancreatic cancer, made tabloid headlines. “I shouldn’t have said anything,” Somers says now. “I apologized to his family. But she adds: “We all know that chemotherapy does nothing for pancreatic cancer.”
?One criticism sure to come up with Somers’ cancer book is its reliance on several doctors who have controversial histories, including Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski in Houston, who has devised his own alternative cancer treatments and has had protracted legal battles with the FDA. But Somers defends him passionately, as she does the other doctors interviewed in her book. As for herself, she says, she is at ease with her role as celebrity health guru? “Celebrities are easy to pick on,” Somers says. “But I don’t have an agenda. I’m just a passionate lay person. And I’m using my celebrity to do something good for people.”
[From the Huffington Post]
Suzanne Somers obviously has the right to choose her own medical care, and she?s got the right to say whatever she wants about her beliefs. But because they?re potentially dangerous, it?s just as important to remember that the American Cancer Society and doctors and journalists have just as much of a right and responsibility to point out that experts disagree. They?re not calling for her silence. They?re saying she?s wrong, and that she?s putting out confusing information. We all know Suzanne Somers is not a doctor. But holy hell, I even felt myself someone swayed when watching her Oprah interview.
I have an aunt who was diagnosed with untreatable breast cancer two and a half years ago. The doctors said there was no point in giving her any sort of treatment and she had a month or two left to live. Because she had no other options, she started seeing a well-respected naturopath. Not because she chose to forgo traditional treatment options, but because she was told by every professional she saw that those options would not work for her. And she?s still alive today. There are two sides to the debate, but stories like this are beautiful miracles ? and rare. Suzanne should consider herself lucky, but not necessarily consider herself science.

Actress Suzanne Somers, 62, is an advocate of natural health practices and told Oprah earlier last year that she takes 60 pills a day, along with bioidentical hormones, which she credits with helping stave off the symptoms of menopause. She has a book out about bioidentical hormones, Ageless: The Naked Truth About Bioidentical Hormones, published in 2006, and another about general wellness, Breakthrough: Eight Steps to Wellness published last year. Apparently Somers has yet another book coming out in a month about cancer, and she just had to speak out to a journalist about how Patrick Swayze was “poisoned” by chemotherapy:
Suzanne Somers, a cancer survivor herself, thinks Patrick Swayze was killed by chemotherapy. “They took a beautiful man” and “put poison in his body,” the “Three’s Company” star told columnist Shinan Govani at the party for Tom Ford’s movie, “A Single Man,” at the Toronto Film Festival. While Julianne Moore, Naomi Watts, Clive Owen and Colin Firth made chitchat, Somers, who has a book about cancer coming out next month, said: “Why couldn’t they have built him up nutritionally and got ten rid of the toxins? . . . I hate to be this controversial . . . but I have to speak out.”
[From The NY Post]
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most silent, deadly and fast-acting cancers. Swayze had the benefit of some of the best cancer treatment in the world, and was treated at Stanford University Cancer Center, where he underwent CyberKnife surgery, a state-of-the-art treatment that allows for precise radiation treatment of tumors without surgery. The fact that Swayze had access to the latest care is likely to have allowed him many more months with his family and loved ones on his ranch. He was diagnosed in March, 2008, and survived a year and a half after what was initially rumored to be a very grim prognosis.
Somers probably means well, but she really shouldn’t bring up Swayze at all to further her agenda. Illness and treatment are a personal matter. Somers had breast cancer, which does make her a cancer survivor but not an expert on all forms of cancer or treatment. Chemotherapy saves lives, and while it inevitably makes people sick and kills healthy cells while it’s killing the cancer it’s reckless to dismiss it as “poison.” It’s especially callous to claim that Swayze’s death was somehow

She’s always up for a good time, and last night (August 16) Pamela Anderson was spotted grabbing some dinner at Nobu restaurant.
Joined by fellow blonde bombshell Suzanne Somers, the former “Baywatch” babe was all smiles as she made her exit from the popular Malibu eatery.
And though she’s enjoyed the finer things in life thanks to her successful acting career, Pammie says that living in Paradise Cove trailer park has been nothing short of fantastic.
Miss Anderson explained, “It’s a one-room mobile home that I bought as a guest house, then we moved in temporarily. I moved there because I was waiting for this damn house to be built in this posh part of Malibu. And then I realized I was so much happier and the kids were also happy. I fell in love there - it’s where my boyfriend lives, too. He’s an electrician and we met on our way to the beach.”

Suzanne Somers is obsessed with youth. She was on “Oprah” yesterday, where she admitted that she takes 60 pills a day, along with estrogen and progesterone creams. Oh, and estriol, which she injects vaginally. That?s quite the hardcore routine. Somers admits she comes across as a nut and is obsessive about her routine. Which is a bit of an understatement.
Suzanne Somers has always been preoccupied with staying fit and looking young. But has the former Three?s Company star gone too far? On an appearance Thursday on “Oprah,” Somers, 62, invited cameras into her home to watch her daily routine of hormone injections and supplement popping.
She begins with rubbing a syringe of estrogen on one arm, every day. For two weeks out of the month, she rubs progesterone on the other. After that, she injects estriol vaginally, which she graciously spared the audience from watching. But it doesn?t end there.
She can?t start her day without taking 40 pills, 15 of which she downs in a thick, yellow smoothie her husband makes for her (she says it’s the secret to their marriage!). Then she ends her day with an additional 20 pills at night before bed.
While she admits the routine makes her seem ?like some kind of fanatic,? she says it has helped her beat the ?Seven Dwarfs of Menopause: Itchy, B**chy, Sleepy, Sweaty, Bloated, Forgetful and All Dried Up.?
?I wanna be there,? she said, pointing to her head. ?Until I?m 110. And I’m going to do what I have to do to get there.?
[From Fox News]
The Huffington Post has a video of Suzanne?s routine. I will admit she looks good for 62, but what would really make her look better is a hairstyle that wasn?t all the rage in 1995. And that wouldn?t require any pills! I have a theory that all women keep whatever hairstyle they have at forty for the rest of their lives. Suzanne was clearly trendier than the average woman so she?s stuck with the hairstyle she had at about fifty.
This is one of those great opportunities to lecture about moderation ? which she does do in the brief Oprah clip. Somers basically says that she knows she?s really extreme about her routine, but it?s just something she?s fanatical about and she?s not saying other people ought to take it that far.
A lot of it really depends on what she takes. Some people don?t like taking a multivitamin/multimineral and prefer to take things separately. If that?s the case, it?s not quite so crazy. She does look good for her age, but I bet it takes a lot of work to keep up with that kind of regimen. However many women have managed to age gracefully without 60 pills a day. I?m sure there?s a sane middle ground somewhere.

62-year-old Suzanne Somers, Three’s Company and Step By Step, went on Oprah Thursday to discuss her daily health routine. It involves rubbing a syringe of estrogen on one arm every day, rubbing a syringe of progesterone on the other arm for two weeks of every month and vaginal injections of estriol.
Also, every morning she’ll take 40 pills, 15 of which are mixed in with a thick, yellow smoothie. Before bed, she takes another 20.
While she admits the routine makes her seem ?like some kind of fanatic,? she says it has helped her beat the ?Seven Dwarfs of Menopause: Itchy, B**chy, Sleepy, Sweaty, Bloated, Forgetful and All Dried Up.?
?I wanna be there,? she said, pointing to her head. ?Until I?m 110. And I’m going to do what I have to do to get there.?
Holy crap. A cancer patient doesn’t even take that many pills or injections. This bitch is insane. There’s no way I would even bring a needle within five feet of my crotch. If you told me that if I stabbed my penis every day with testosterone, my dick would grow four inches and sex would last longer than two minutes, I’d say no thanks. The laughter, embarrassment and endless crying isn’t that bad.
