He had a stroke a few years back.  The left side of his face did not recover well.  He's on HRT and he still trains pretty hard.

Uh no, but his interview with Ric (well, 'interview'...) has been posted before. I believe this vid has been reposted by Ric, maybe because of the sound quality, don't know..
Andreas is a great guy who loves to share his insights, but Ric is more interested in himself.

He didn't have an f-ing stroke, they severed a nerve when he had that surgery done to remove a cancer/tumor somewhere in his head/neck.

I am betting the beard is to help hide his "stroke face" (no matter what caused it)

You have my sympathy.  I had a near fatal head injury 37yrs ago (seems like last summer) & it messed me up for life.

Seems like a polite, decent guy. So hard, though, to connect his new look with the magazine pics from the 80s.

What caused it and what's the treatman/cure?

It's usually idiopathic in etiology, sometimes associated with herpes outbreak but nobody really knows.  Basically one of the facial nerves becomes inflamed and unable to function, hence the one-sided facial paralysis.

It clears up on its own in most cases within a couple months, but if it's severe enough it can leave lasting nerve damage.  Traditionally treated w a corticosteroid, eg prednisone/methylprednisone, to quell inflammation...gabapenti n has been used to manage the neuropathic pain.

Just a freak issue, thankfully it's not too common
