Roberto. A colleague with whom I'd had coffee every morning for ten years.
One evening at dinner, when our wives were in another room, we had talked. Really talked. With that frankness you only have with people you truly trust after years.
Same story. Same doctor saying 'everything's normal'. Same hidden Viagra. Same weight.
"Then I found something that tackles the problem at its root. It's not Viagra. You don't have to plan anything. One capsule a day like any supplement. And after three weeks, the system had repaired itself."
He showed me the bottle. Dark blue, discreet label. Boostman NAD+ — supplement for male energy and vitality. No explicit reference to anything.
"If your wife sees it and asks what it is, tell her the truth: it's for energy. You're not lying. And you don't have to explain anything."
That sentence convinced me more than anything else.
