WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME??

Have you ever noticed that the older a man gets, the more likely he tends to be overweight? In men, most excess fat collects around the ab-dominal area and hangs over the belt. We affectionately refer to this as a beer gut.

What most men don’t know is that this accumulation of belly fat is ac-tually kicking their estrogen production into high gear, throwing off their already naturally shifting hormone levels and negatively impacting al-most every other aspect of their lives.

As a man reaches the age of 50, his hormone levels begin a slow but steady decline. This is just a natural part of life, but the speed in which this occurs depends quite a lot on two things. The first is his diet over the last 50 years, which he can control. The second is genetics, which he can’t.

In this book, you’ll find out exactly what to look out for if you suspect you have an all too common hormonal imbalance known as estrogen dominance. Usually this occurs in women, since women are naturally born with more estrogen than testosterone, but for a variety of reasons, western men are facing the prospect of embarrassing, debilitating and even life threatening hormonal imbalance at a rate never before seen in recorded history.

This is the term used to describe the negative symptoms of having too much estrogen in both men and women.

The symptoms of estrogen dominance do show on the outside and they can be very embarrassing. The two most noticeable symptoms at first glance are male breasts and hair loss. Another exterior symptom, although only noticed by the man or his partner, is a shrinking of the penis.

As bad as these two symptoms are, most side effects of estrogen dominance in men happen inside the male body. For example, depression, followed by a diminished libido, the risk of cardiovascular

disease grows exponentially, as well as BPH (enlarged prostate), which could eventually lead to full blown prostate cancer.

Although many men just chalk these symptoms up to old age, they are nothing to take lightly. And what most men don’t know is that they’ve actually made their estrogen dominance many times worse by spending their life eating a Standard Western Diet full of processed foods, sugar, far too much industrially farmed animal protein and dairy.

Let’s review the symptoms. Are you suffering from any of these?• The penis begins to shrink• Depression sets in• Hair loss• Prostate Enlargement• Doctor says your risk of heart conditions is increasing• Low libido• Gynaecomastia(malebreasts)• Loss of Assertiveness• Loss of strength/mass

Probably the most common symptom that men may experience isGynaecomastia, which is when a man starts to develop “breasts,” but in reality, it is only fat that is being stored in your pectorals, thus giving the illusion of having breasts. However, should estrogen dominance persist, some men have been known to suffer from a condition called g alactorrhea, or ‘male lactation’.

Understandably, this can be a very embarrassing problem. ‘Male breasts’ can also be painful and tender to the touch. However, none of these symptoms need to last forever. There is something you can do to change your hormone imbalance.

I’ll cover all the solutions to estrogen imbalance and abnormally low testosterone levels later on, so keep reading. But first, let’s get to the heart of the issue, as we can’t solve a problem until we fully understand what we’re dealing with.

WHAT ARE HORMONES AND WHY ARE THEY SO IMPORTANT?

Hormones are chemical messengers that are created in the endocrine gland, which regulates the majority of the body’s major functions. Aside from the most obvious functions, such as the reproductive system and metabolic rate, these hormones also play a massive part in controlling your mood.

If your hormones are imbalanced, you may find you don’t exactly feel like yourself most days. You may become more irritable, feel anxious and depressed, and even exhibit mood swings typical of a woman of the same age going through menopause.

As you can see, the right balance between estrogen and testosterone is crucial to maintaining a high quality of life as you get older.

WHAT IS ESTROGEN AND HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM TESTOSTERONE?

Estrogen is a female hormone that is produced by both men and women. Men produce a smaller amount of estrogen than women and a far larger amount of testosterone. This is, in part, what makes a man feel and act like a man. These hormones are produced by the testes and are needed for sexual reproduction and libido.

Keeping your hormones in balance is important for keeping the entire body healthy and working as it should.

For example, it’s not only higher than normal levels of estrogen in men that can cause problems, as lower than normal levels have been linked to obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).

This is further proof that like anything in life, a balance is needed to stay healthy and maintain and excellent quality of life.

HOW CAN I AVOID ESTROGEN DOMINANCE?

Your diet determines your health and this is no different for your hormones. Consuming large amounts of soya milk or soya products for that matter, will increase your risk of estrogen dominance. Even foods including textured veggie protein, sesame seeds and tempeh.

These foods are phytoestrogen, meaning they are plant based foods that mimic estrogen. This can be disastrous for men who are trying to increase or maintain their testosterone levels. Simply put: Do not consume these foods!

Having a toxic liver can also increase your risk of estrogen dominance because your liver is responsible for filtering excess hormones, including estrogen. For this reason, it is important to make sure you’re getting

enough antioxidants, particularly for your liver. This also means drinking little or no alcohol. Sure, a small beer belly on a frat boy is considered “normal,” almost expected, but men who continue to consume large quantities of alcohol throughout their lives, especially beer, tend to seriously pack on the pounds. The same thing happens to their liver as they develop fatty liver disease.

Avoid consuming too much protein from animals, especially industrially farmed red meat and dairy. If your meat and dairy is not coming from an organic, grass fed, free range farm, the animals you’re consuming and their bi products are being pumped full of antibiotics and growth hormones. This is seriously adding to the amount of estrogen produced throughout a man’s life time! So perhaps a thick, red cut of steak twice a week isn’t such a manly thing to eat after all?

Lastly, you can also hit the gym. Building solid exercise habits as a young man, especially weight training, and keeping those habits through middle age and into retirement is an excellent way to keep testosterone levels high and estrogen levels balanced. And it’s never too late to start.

Men naturally have more muscle mass, a natural symptom of producing more testosterone. Just as a gut hanging over your belt will increase estrogen production, lean muscle promotes the production of testosterone. So if it makes things easier, head to your TV room, put on the game and instead of lifting nachos and beer, while you watch, start lifting free weights instead.

WHAT’S THE SOLUTION IF I ALREADY HAVE ESTROGEN DOMINANCE?

If you’ve been diagnosed or even just suspect that you may have a hormone imbalance, don’t panic. It’s not all downhill from here, as you’re able to combat the symptoms of estrogen dominance by completely cutting all estrogen increasing foods.

You also need to increase your fiber consumption, without enough dietary fiber you are unable to get rid of excess estrogen that you would normally excrete in your stools.

The answer, as is often the case when your body ages and starts producing or not producing the hormones that once kept you in good health, it’s time to start taking supplements.

The key to solving the problem of estrogen dominance is by reducing the amount of estrogen in your blood.

While exercising more, particularly weight training, you can increase the amount of testosterone in the body, but not necessarily decrease the amount of estrogen.

As most men facing estrogen dominance problems are over the age of 50, jumping right back into the old exercise routine they were practicing back in their 20’s or 30’s may prove to not only be difficult but extremely dangerous. For someone with a large build up of belly fat, easing slowly back into a training routine is key.

Getting in shape will also help with any depression associated with estrogen dominance, as exercise very clearly leads to a better state of mental health and happiness.

SUPPLEMENTS ARE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL

Because after the age of 50, men are bound to naturally experience at least a small amount of hormonal imbalance, simply changing diet and increasing exercise won’t fully set back the clock on their bodies and the terrible symptoms they’re experiencing. That’s where Estro -Clear comes in.

Why use Estro -Clear?One of the consequences of eating the standard American diet over decades is that many men, by the time they reach the age of 50, have more estrogen in their blood than their wives. When men have a higher ratio of estrogen to testosterone in their blood, often their body converts some of the testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is highly inflammatory and undesirable. It causes inflammation in the prostate often referred to as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). More concerning is that DHT can cause the inflammation that leads to prostate cancer.

12

Without a doubt, the safest, most potent and by far, most effective, all natural way to get the right amount of Diindolylmethane into your body is through Ben’s Estro- Clear.

Estro-Clear contains diindolylmethane, which is naturally extracted from cruciferous vegetables. Research has shown that diindolylmethane reduces the level of estrogen in the blood over time.

I have now reformulated Estro-clear to contain an additional five, ultra potent ingredients that work together to balance your hormones by reducing excessive amounts of estrogen, along with additional anti- inflammatory properties.

Estro- Clear now contains calcium D -Glucarate to flush out excessive estrogen. But that’s now all it does, as preliminary results in humans show D- Glucarate has lipid lower properties, reducing total serum cholesterol up to 12%, LDL- cholesterol up to 28%, and triglycerides up to 43%.

Calcium D -Glucarate is easily converted by the body into Glucaric acid. Calcium D -Glucarate is a natural form of calcium found in fruits and vegetables like grapefruit, broccoli and bean sprouts. Glucaric acid can be found naturally in the human body, and is designed to flush excess toxins out of your system. That includes excessive amounts of estrogen, and as a result, keeps your hormones balanced.

It’s also know to aid in tumor prevention, as animal studies have shown positive results regarding the use of Calcium D -Glucarate for detoxifying carcinogens in the colon, skin, lung, breast, and liver. Estro -Clear also contains Cyperus, to lower estrogen and increase libido, A stragalus to boost the immune system , Cucuma Zedoaria to reduce the symptoms associated with BPH and B lack Pepper to aid digestion and increase the absorption of Cucuma Zedoaria. Estro- Clear is designed to reduce inflammation caused by BPH, protects against prostate cancer, and lowers Estrogen levels in a man’s Blood.

13

Estro clear contains a 10 times the concentration of the two herbs Cucuma Zedoarian and Cyperus. These are two herbs that have received very little attention in the West.

But in Asia, they have been known for centuries to balance Chi (the human energy force). In terms of Western science, research in Asia has shown both of these herbs to be natural aromatase reducers that can reduce estradiol level. An aromatase reducer or inhibitor will prevent the male body from converting testosterone into estrogen.

As I said before, I have now reformulated Estro- Clear to contain an additional five, ultra potent ingredients that work together to balance your hormones by reducing excessive amounts of estrogen, along with additional anti -inflammatory properties.

For this reformulation, we had to take Estro -Clear off the shelves for a bit, but now it’s back and better than ever. More power and potency in exactly the same dose.
