Anabolischen
Anabolischen refers to anabolic processes, which are metabolic reactions that build complex molecules from simpler ones. These processes generally require energy. In the context of human biology and medicine, the term is frequently associated with anabolic steroids, a class of drugs that mimic the effects of testosterone. These substances promote the growth of muscle mass, bone density, and red blood cell production. Anabolic steroids can be used legitimately to treat conditions like delayed puberty or muscle wasting diseases. However, they are also often misused by athletes and bodybuilders to enhance performance or physique. The misuse of anabolic steroids can lead to significant health risks, including cardiovascular problems, liver damage, hormonal imbalances, and psychological effects. The term "anabolischen" is the German adjective form of anabolic.
